Dating Story #4: French kiss

My life seems to be a mess after I broke my relation with Nancy. I was not successful enough to keep her happy during the five years we spent together. We neither had a child nor other intimacy, that’s why she selected to drive in another direction. I felt her need more than anything else in my life, but I could not stop her to go. After living a few months alone, my friends found my irritable in most of the matters. Whether I was at work, doing shopping or hanging out with my friends, I used to remain silent and introvert. Then one of my friends made me a member of online dating site. I was not interested in the beginning, but the regular emails I received were very eye catching. The profiles of young, beautiful and sexy girls were glamorous enough to grab the attention of a layman. One weekend, when I was navigating the profile I got a glimpse of Susanne; she was just 26 years old, but very mature in communication. I expressed my wish to meet her. She was living in the same area

Susannah B. (25) and Johnny S. (31), dating one year

Six months after moving to Los Angeles, I started online dating . Not necessarily because I really wanted to find the guy, I just wanted to go on dates because they were so funny. There were cases when I was going to meet two or three people a week. It was without success . I often met people who I really never interested in. But I met a bunch of really interesting, wonderful guys with whom I still communicate - it's hard to be real friends, but we are very friendly. I set a few guys out with my friends. Johnny was the one who first sent me a message, and initially, I never answered to him. Then he was ready to quit online dating , and, as a last effort, he sent me a message, for example: "Hey, I'm leaving, but I would like to chat you again and see if you are interested to date with me. Send me a text if you're interested." I actually answered, because I looked at his profile and saw that he was Australian, and who doesn't want to meet the Australian chick?!

Mary Gilbert (25) and James Gilbert (38), married

How we started online dating , it was really a lucky accident. I haven't changed my location settings, so James made his way there because we lived 50 miles from each other. So, we had a match, but none of us took it seriously. James gave me a message and we chatted for a while, and we just got it, all the baggage, right now so we can see whether it is necessary to speak. I gave him my phone number and he said to me: "Hello, Hannah, this is James. And I said: "Who's James?" as a joke. And that's all. We were talking in the non-stop way and we went on our first date 5 days later. We went a camping trip, and we put wine in bottles for water and made a little picnic at the end of the trip. None of us were looking for anything too serious, but we continued to date regularly, and it just happened, even if we didn't notice. I have a son from a previous relationship Jeremy, he was 3 years old at the time - and they met and just hit it off. I knew from day on
