A great marriage is not when the "perfect couple" comes together.

It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.

You always find true love when you're least trying to look for it :)

That's the way it would seem based on what I've witnessed so far on VJ, so I thought I'd ask the question and see whether the stats support it!

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

I was on again/off again with a guy for 5 1/2 years when I met Daniel. So I was definately not looking but glad I opened my eyes when he came around. We met at work (I work in a machine shop....traditionally mostly men) and even though I was covered in dust, dirt, grease and grime, he still thought I was attractive...just goes to show you...true love can be blind ;)

Mid- July - Found out I129-F never left his company but is lost there.....need to gather and try again

August 2006 - Still waiting...maybe not the I-129F route anymore

I had broken off my last relationship about 4 months previous. I had my daughter living with me so I was just killing time chatting on yahoo. I ended up in a Canadian sight (not even sure how LOL) but she messaged me. And the rest is HISTORY. :dance:

I had been trying online dating off and on for almost 2 years, and had just gone on a really nice trip with a grilfriend during which I had decided I enjoyed being on my own surrounded by good friends and didn't want to date. I decided to pull my ad. Lo and behold, when I got home and went to pull it, there was this email from someone who seemed interesting....

Two Hearts, Two Different Places, Sharing One Dream

We were strangers~ Starting out on a journey~Never dreaming What we'd have to go through ~Now here we are ~ And I'm suddenly standing ~ At the beginning with you ~ No one told me I was going to find you ~ Unexpected ~ What you did to my heart ~ When I lost hope You were there to remind me ~ This is the start ~ Life is a road And I want to keep going ~ Love is a river I wanna keep flowing ~ Life is a road Now and forever ~ Wonderful journey ~ I'll be there When the world stops turning~ I'll be there When the storm is through ~ In the end I wanna be standing At the beginning with you~
