For those that don’t know, my last boyfriend (Josh) and I were dating 4 years, were living together, until in April 2012 he decides to randomly up and leave to join the Navy. He didn’t want to deal with a girlfriend back home so I got dumped. I was crushed. He moved out and in November he went off to boot camp. Nothing else after that really matters, but I found out in Jan/Feb that he’s engaged…to a 19 year old. Oh boy. That’s a loving stable relationship right there. Oh well. Once I got my head out of the water (wait, is that water?!) I realized how unhappy I was so it was for the best.
Well in November, I met a boy named Matt. He’s not my type really-I usually go for someone who is my opposite in a lot of ways…Matt is just exactly like me. We both like cars, cats, good food, diet Pepsi, fishing…we both don’t want kids (it’s been a lot harder than I thought to find a man who doesn’t want kids or would be okay adopting) He’s kind of shy and kind of quiet (Im encouraging him to talk more!)
The thing is…sshhh its a secret, you can’t tell anyone….we met online *facepalm* I work 9 hours a day and when I do go out, all the people I meet are in a relationship, wayyy too old, wwaaayy too young, not interested, SOMETHING. I don’t meet single, attractive, avaliable men. I signed up with this dating site and met up with 3-4 people. No spark. One guy there was a spark with…but that’s another story. Long story short, in the end, it didn’t work out. I realized this in November and started looking around on that site again and met Matt. He lives about 20 minutes away so not too far of a drive. I didn’t want to meet someone, have him like me, me get attached, and then him find out I have 3 cats and I collect dragons and have him be scared off…so I figured I should put all my crazy out front in neon lights.
I have this room on the back of the house I call my “cave”…its not a man cave because Im not a man, but there’s a Budweiser sign, a mini-fridge, a hooka pipe, a big screen TV, an assortment of video game systems, board games and a hot tub-lots of fun stuff lol I have about 70+ Windstones in there-most color coded in oranges, reds, yellows, browns and the black gold dragons because they’re…*says in dude voice* “cool”. I told him I collect dragons when I started to like him. The first time he came over and saw my collection….
get this
he ACTUALLY likes my Windstones! X_X He loves owls and I want to find him an owl candle lamp. I gave him a sitting cat candle lamp and he loved it. We finish each other’s sentences and …he THINKS like me! So when I say something obscure like “where did we go when we caught that fish?” even though we’ve been plenty of places and caught plenty of fish, he will know what and where I’m talking about. We joke, “it’s going to really suck when we find out we’re brother and sister” LOL and unlike past boyfriends when I say “OOO LETS GO DO THIS” or “lets go there and do that” he is always up for it. Its kinda REALLY nice 🙂
Good for YOU!! :party: As a (slightly lower voice)”DUDE”, I’m VERY happy for you!! I know I don’t know you AT ALL(aside from being a windstone nut)LOL….but it really sounds like, from reading your post, you are finally HAPPY. 🙂 I hope you and Matt are happy together.(even though you might be brother and sister)LOL!!!

http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmGood for you Wolfen! I hear ya on the no kid thing… it’s hard to find someone who doesn’t want kids these days.

All my friends I made on the forum started that way ^_^ YAY! *thumbs up* Also.. I mean come on, he likes Windstones, he’s a keeper!! LOL!

Sometimes you have to close on door before another will open so this is a good new opportunity for you to be with someone better than the last. I am still trying to get my ex to move on after we dated on and off for the last two and a half years. He moved about 10 hours away for work and has visited me only 3 times in the last 8 months so I have had lots of time to get over him but he refuses to get over me which is a different kind of problem than what I am used to. But I really want to move on and keep telling him so even though he calls and texts me still all time begging me to change my mind. Sometimes I have questioned if I should just accept him and settle for him but I don’t want to settle so your story gives me hope that if I let him go maybe I will find a better, more suitable guy for me! I am trying online dating too so wish me luck!

Excellent!
Nothing wrong with meeting online! My husband and I have been together 10 years now and we lived thousands of miles apart and did the long-distance thing for a while. Never been happier!
Good for you! 🙂

My art: featherdust.comZOMG! So happy for you!! Keep the good moments going and let the past be just that, the past, and a learning experience! Wishing you the best!
Congrats! That’s great! And I’ll echo the others who’ve said nothing is wrong with meeting online- that’s how my husband and I met, in 2005! (Although it wasn’t through a dating site, just chatting in a car chatroom.) And we lived quite a bit more than 20 minutes apart.
Congrats again :bigsmile:Formerly had the Batman & Joker avatar!
It certainly gives the rest of us single, work-a-holic, windstone & gaming/anime obsessed nuts hope! Thanks for the inspiration and hope things go great for the two of you!
Adoption is wonderful, how many kids can say their parents loved them so much they actually chose them to be family!
Guys are jerks 😉
