We love each other and want to be together forever.
I met my mate and after the first conversation it was set in stone that we belonged together. On DEC 7, 2008, it became official and are making plans for our future. All we know is that we love each other and want to be together forever. This has never happened to me so quickly.

I honestly can see myself growing old with her!
My screen name was tc1rtm and hers was mandy674. I seen her picture and she had a beautiful smile and so I sent her a smile. Everyday for the next week or so, I would check my account to see if she viewed my profile, but nothing. So on August 13, 2008, she sent me an email. I was unable to read it because I wasn't a subscriber, so I payed the money to read the email and sent one back. We exchanged phone numbers and spent the next 3 weeks talking on the phone. We finally met on each other on September 10th and we both were really nervous, but one thing was for sure...we liked each other. So on the 13th, I asked her to be my official girlfriend and from then on, it's been great. I never believed in love at first sight until now. She's everything I ever wanted in a woman and I honestly can see myself growing old with her!

He has swept me away like no one ever has.
In today's world, is it so uncommon to meet someone on the internet? How often does that person become your future? The gap between cities, states, and countries is no longer prevalent when the internet is involved. It fascinates me.
After a very stale, unloving, 8 month relationship, I was skeptical in dating again. I wanted "Mr. Right" to walk up to me and sweep me away, carry me off like the hero in my romance novels. After all, I believe in soul, deep love and I believe that love is out there for all of us if we can see past our own insecurities to welcome it.
So this is the beginning of my story. A story where possibilities are endless. Although time will reveal all truths, in the end I would love to say that we will "live happily ever after."
The first time I had ever signed up for a dating site, proved to me one of the best things that I have ever done. It is on this dating site, interracialsingles.net, that I met HIM, a man that intrigued me from our very first conversation.
Our first date a week later was flawless. I saw him and like his warm, inviting voice, his eyes were kind and endearing. We sat in a restaurant and sipped on our beverage, talking and sharing about ourselves until the restaurant closed. We even stayed while they started their end of night clean up. He had captivated me... I was amazed.
Saying goodbye that evening was difficult, but we stood there looking into each others eyes, wishing there were words to explain how we felt at that very moment. He leaned in and softly kissed my lips, I didn't want the moment to end.
Since our first date, we have effortlessly incorporated each other into our individual lives, spending time with each others families and enjoying time alone. We have been taking trips to places we had never been, sharing our dreams and goals, and every day falling more in love with one another.
I find myself smiling randomly throughout the day, thinking about a silly way he looked at me or something he had said that made me laugh. I close my eyes and I can feel his gentle kiss, his strong arm around my waist, and his caressing words. I find myself thinking about our future. I am amazed.
We compliment each other (not just verbally, but in who we are). We finish each others thoughts and we enjoy every moment that we spend together, whether it is 5 minutes or 4 days, it never seems like enough time. We are patient with each other, caring and understanding, and yet we are respected by each other as the individuals that we are.
Is he Mr. Right? I've never met anyone in my life that has been so right for me. He showed up and presented himself to me, took my hand, and has swept me away like no one ever has. I am ever so grateful to have been introduced to the Hero in my own love story, to the man that has won my heart.
Thank you Interracial Singles!

The brisk November evening marked the six month milestone of our romantic adventure together. He called to tell me he made dinner reservations at my favorite Italian restaurant for 7 pm. This evening was like any other evening that I spent next to him; his loving warmth wrapped around me like it had for the past six months. This would be another magical hour shared together. After dinner we took a walk underneath the light of the full moon. We held hands, talked about our day, shared our thoughts and laughed like we always do. Little did I know tonight would be different than any other night. While the evening sounds around us played a familiar tune of the California hustle and bustle, he kneeled before me on one knee. The black velvet box sat open in his hand as the shimmer of diamonds twinkled beneath the starless night. Through the nervousness and shaking in his voice, he asked me to be his wife. Instantly, both my hands caressed his face as my lips embraced his. My unspoken answer to him lie evident in that single kiss amidst tears of joy and my rapidly beating heart. I asked his three girls to be my bridesmaids and he asked my two boys to be his best men. What more could we ask for than to share a magical moment with our children, who embraced us both since the beginning of this adventure. Loving each other is like a breath of fresh air, it’s a natural occurrence. The fairytale of our love does not start or end with the proposal, the wedding, or the title. It’s our daily moments where we grow, share, evolve and intertwine our lives that enable our dreams to come true. It’s those cherished moments that will define our lifetime together; our happily ever after.
Thank you InterracialSingles.net for giving me the tool to find my soulmate.
Thank you!

I have fallen for him in a way I cannot put to words.
On August 7, 2008, gee_luvaluva sent a smile to me and then I initiated an Instant Mingle chat when I noticed he was online. In his pictures, his smile drew me in and his eye were so full of life. I just had to make contact with him. We talked for hours in that first IM, then switched to another IM forum to continue our conversation. He eventually called me that night... and we connected in a way that you only see in fairy tales. Eric and I talked as if we had known each other forever. We spent the next few weeks talking on the phone for hours on end. After a little less than 3 weeks, we were able to bridge the miles between us and Eric came up from FL to see me in NC. Again, it was magical. It even hit the point, after that visit, that Eric deleted his profile on here to eliminate contact from other women because he said his searching was over... I am now following his lead. This amazing man is everything I was always wanting in my significant other...the Romeo who will flirt only with me. He tells me and shows me daily how much he cares and in a short period of time, through his constant words of affection and little reminders of his love, I have fallen for him in a way I cannot put to words. One month to the day that we met on here, we knew we loved each other and expressed those words. We both knew we wanted to go forward together. So, we are starting on the rest of our lives together. Eric was a member of your site for 2 yrs, while I only joined in July. It was as if I was meant to happen upon your site just to meet him. Yet still it was this site that brought us together, so thank you! Eric is truly an amazing man, full of love and devotion and I am so happy to be the woman with whom he wants to spend the rest of his life with.

It feels as if we have known each other for years.
His Story:
I viewed kj2007 by accident as I am in PA and she in MI. I thought the distance was too great, but was so taken by her photo, I read her info. She "sounded" like a wonderful person, so I sent her a message just to compliment her on both her physical beauty and what I perceived as her inner beauty. I did this not expecting any response. Well, she was obviously raised properly as she thanked me for my compliment. This kind act started a conversation that I thought would just be a "pen pal" kind of thing. Over the weeks, our messages got more personal...likes, dis-likes etc...and we started to realize how similar we were. After several weeks, we started talking on the phone. The more we talked, the more I realized how special she was. She flew out to see me...let's just say that the inner beauty I thought she possessed, she has and then some. She is kind, honest, caring, intelligent, articulate, attractive, and talented. I used to chuckle at the comment about "soul mates"...until I met her. I get it now. I can say I love her more than I thought possible. My advice to all IS members is to be honest, be curtious, treat everyone with respect, and be yourself. I am in love and I have IS to thank for it...oh...and kj2007!
Her Story:
I wasn't what you may call 'actively' going on your site searching for a partner. I was a
'let's see who's emailed me today', kinda girl. I would log on to check emails that were sent to me. I believe I was on your site for maybe a month when I received an email from another IS member. I remember the email distinctly. He simply payed me a compliment and basically wished me good luck with my search, as he realized there was a great distance between us, (I'm located in Michigan & he was in PA). Well, I couldn't let a perfectly good compliment go to waste, now could I? So, I checked out his profile, which was so in depth, and his words were quite stirring as well as 'real', not to mention his picture was 'HOT'. So, I sent him a message thanking him for the compliment and he sent another to which I replied to again. Before you know it, we were writing emails everyday for approx. 2 weeks before we eventually decided there is more going on here than two people writing beautiful & meaningful emails. This was an important connection that could no longer be denied for the two of us. We both declared,
even without having seen each other, that we were 'Falling In Love'. We progressed from emails to phone calls and that just deepened the connection and ultimately, the only thing left, was to see if what seemed so beautiful & romantic on paper (or in our case, emails & phone calls), could
translate into the real world??
So, I flew out to Pennsylvania quite recently so that we could spend some quality time together, as well as to find out whether our connection was as
real as we had hoped.... Our meeting surpassed anything both of us could imagine, a love connection so real, & precious, that every cliche you can think of, applies to us right now. The moment our eyes met at the airport, it was... 'Love at First Sight'. There was a comfortability factor that I've never known before considering this was our first meeting and he felt the exact same way. We both commented on how it had felt as if we had known each other for years, and NOT weeks. We both believe that we have found our
'Soulmate', and we both truly look forward to embarking on a life together. It really has seemed like something out of a fairytale book, but we're not going to question it, just enjoy that we have found each other.
I think I speak for both of us when I say that we did not feel the internet would be the place where we would find 'LOVE', but we are living proof that if you want to find and have true love in your life, you never know where you are consequently going to find it...simply believe that you will and take a chance. My advice to all the ladies is to take the time and answer the emails that might only be paying you a compliment because you never know, a love connection has to start somewhere after all:-) And to all the men who see a lady who catches your eye, don't think twice about sending her an email to pay her a compliment, you simply don't know where kind words may lead...We wish you every success with your search here on IS.

He makes me smile and gives me butterflies.
I never ever go on these kind of sites. One day about a month ago, this site kept coming up, flashing in my face. I was getting annoyed at first, but then I was thinking, well, maybe it's a sign or something. So just for kicks, I signed on. The very minute I was on the site, I saw a picture that really grabbed me. It was one of the HIGHLIGHTED profiles. He wasn't even someone in my area of the same state. He lives in California. I have just recently decided to move to California after my separation and divorce proceedings get started. California is a big state....I didn't think he was anywhere near San Diego where I planned to move where my sister is. I added him to my friends list. At first of course we sent smiles to each other and cards...then I got a card that said I LIKE YOU. I was a little excited. I was still unsure of my chances of talking to him, considering I wasn't a full member yet. I couldn't even catch him on-line the same time as me. Well, finally not even a week ago, he was online and he sent me an instant message. I was way too excited. I found out that he lives about half an hour away from where I am moving. We both also have identical twins. I was thinking, this is really spooky. We have been texting each other pretty much non stop and plan to see each other the day I get to California. We are very excited to see each other. We just seem to really, really hit it off. He makes me smile and gives me butterflies. I've been married for 13 years and haven't been so happy, for the most part of it. My husband and I just don't have a lot in common and the love for me has been gone for a long time. That is why I am moving away for a fresh new start. Now more than ever, I am really looking forward to meeting someone. Less than a month on this site and I really think I've found someone that shares so much as I do. I really think so much of this is a coincidence and perhaps fate. WISH US LUCK!

We started talking and really hit it off.
I started on this site just to see what was out there. After 3 months, I was ready to cancel my membership until I discovered this beautiful female. We started talking and really hit it off. After talking on the phone for over a month, we finally met in person and have been dating ever since. Thanks InterracialSingles.net!

There is no other man I rather be with than him.
We met over two months ago on Interracial Singles. We started out just talking and texting and getting to know each other. We instantly clicked and we said, "I love you" by the second day and for the first time in my life, I had actually meant it the first time.
We talked about marriage and children and all the things most people don't talk about until they have been together for years. We had an amazing time getting to know each other and we had both been on the website for quite sometime and we had met other people and just didn't click or they were not what we were looking for in a relationship. I live in Canada and he lives in Pennsylvania. It was such a distance, so one day, I took a bus to visit him and I never left. He is everything I want and I need in a man, which I'm sure is a huge ego boost for him. I'm working on getting my immigration papers and my son will be eventually moving down here to live with us. We are getting married next year and plan on starting a family not too long after that. I know everything sounds rushed at the moment, but there is no other man I rather be with than him and usually when someone is the right person for you, everything seems a bit strange to people looking in.

Internet dating isn't an Urban Legend after all.
Do you think it's possible to find your soul mate (whatever that means), a person who is trustworthy, stable, possesses a level of integrity and moral value that is equal to yours? Someone you don't get tired of and want to
hurl out a 5 story building window (maybe that's just me) after spending two days with nothing, but each other and four walls on an Internet singles
sight?
Yeah, I didn't either. As a matter of fact, I considered that about as likely as finding Bigfoot or Ed McMahon with a giant check on my doorstep one Saturday afternoon, minus the camera man of course.
Well, I'm here to tell you, in some rare cases it might not be an Urban Legend. I still have a hard time believing it when I think about it, but
somehow, for some reason, we were both there at the same time and stumbled across what seems to be just that. A lot of people might tell you that two personalities as similar as ours won't mix, until you see us together. I wonder all the time where this person as crazy as I am has been my whole
life, but then I think why question it? If we hadn't have experienced all the weirdos, disappointments, and lessons learned in our lives, this wouldn't be so sweet. At the end of the day, there's a lot to be said about being honest with
yourself and others about the kind of person you REALLY want in life. Once you master that technique, everything else just falls into place, whether it's in a coffee shop, on the street, or InterracialSingles.
