I have been reading some of the other topics on here how people are disappointed that the success stories number is so low. Well, I think that number is about to raise because I met someone completely wonderful. We have a connection and attraction to each other that is so magical. The Lord is definitely in this relationship!


We met one Sunday night at a restaurant I thought would be opened, but when the two of us got to the door at the exact same time, the door was locked. It was my fault because I didn't call and check if it was open, but of course it didn't cross my mind either. Well, instead, we went to another restaurant. When he took off his sunglasses, I was immediately attracted to him. His eyes were so sincere. When we sat down at the table, we both connected like no other. He made me laugh; I made him laugh. We had a great time!


At the end of the dinner, he told me that he didn't want us to part yet, so we decided to go elsewhere. When we both arrived at the second place, he got out of his car and greeted me at my car. We didn't take but a few steps when we hugged for the first time. This hug was so magical! I couldn't tell if the lighting of the sunset was making this happen, but I felt so safe and at home but so attracted to him as he held me in his arms. I have dated many other men in the past, but I have never felt that way in somone's arms before.


We had a fabulous time that night. In fact, we have seen each other at least 4-5 days a week since that night. We have talked a lot about how we feel about one another, and it is like we feel the same exact way. This attraction is beyond lust and friendship. I totally believe that we are meant to be together, and that the Lord brought us together!


So, for those of you who are in doubt, please have faith! The right person could be the next person you'll meet from here!


Good luck and God bless all! [img]library/editor/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-cool.gif[/img]

That's a very sweet story. I have met some wonderful people on EH and have dated...just not the right long term person. Good luck and enjoy the nice and slow development of a lasting relationship.


I think the frustration on some of others on the success stories part are those who have rushed down the aisle within weeks of meeting someone. It's impossible to know if you are right for even a house plant without possibly killing it within three weeks. Lasting relationships take time regardless on ones spiritual grounding.

Wow! I am so excited to see how God has moved in your life! I hope that one day I will find my true love but until then i need to keep working on becoming the right one for my future mate! I have been with eharmony.com since sept of 2007. I only got to open communication once. I am beginning to think that maybe eharmony is not where my future will be found.

Yep~! Neil Clark Warren, the founder of E/H says to allow at least two years of dating before getting married. My wife whom I met on E/H and I allowed just about exactly two years.

Of the 6 matches I met in person one lady seemed to be a little too "anxious". I'm glad I met her. She did however marry another of her matches about 2 months after she met me. I hope and pray she and her husband are still happy together~!

Dear GILKEY (and Everyone),

Dr. Warren does indeed, encourage members to spend 2 years getting to know one another before deciding to marry because it can take this long to know everything you need to know about someone you will be making a lifetime commitment to. It's great to hear, GILKEY, that you and your wife took his suggestion so that when you married you both knew that the other was The One!

I would like to take the opportunity to also remind members that one of our Safety Tips advises members to take their time when getting to know a special match. Part of Safety Tip #5 -- Take Your Time -- includes the following:

Even though eHarmony's matching process creates extremely compatible matches, compatibility alone does not eliminate the need for real-life experience. The more experiences you share, the better your chances of avoiding hidden and sometimes unpleasant surprises. So allow time for a variety of experiences together, particularly the simple everyday routine. Move slowly, learn about and pay attention to the reality of your new relationship, as well as your relationship goals.

Our Safety Tips can be reviewed by clicking here: http://www.eharmony.com/safety/tips

Thank you, GILKEY, for your post and for your participation on other threads. Sharing your eHarmony experience and success might just be what helps a member stay positive during their search or might encourage them to take a different approach which positively enhances their eHarmony experience!

Lastly, if we haven't already encouraged you to share your story with our Success Stories team, I invite you to do so now. They would love to touch base with you and hear about your experience. You can contact them by clicking here: http://www.eharmony.com/singles/servlet/about/tellus.

All the best to you and your wife!

-Renee
