Member-only story
It is here already. This is the week Liz and I get married. As always, time flies when you are having fun. I can’t say I was having fun the entire time but I can say I can’t believe the time has gone by so quickly.
You see, Liz and I have been together for eleven years now and we actually met on an online dating site. Literally, she reached out to me when I was desperately lonely. We quickly hit it off and started to seriously correspond. First by email and then by phone when I became brave enough to let her hear my voice.
Of course one of the major factors in getting together in person was the distance we lived apart. In those days I lived approximately a hour apart. I lived in Springfield, Ohio and she in her native Cincinnati. So we were within meeting distance. Another plus was I had always loved Cincinnati and deep down thought I would end up living there.
Following a year or so of commuting back and forth I moved my dog, cat and myself to Liz’s place in Cincinnati. Without much of a problem we managed to mesh as she had her son, a dog and two cats living there. Spiritually, Liz is a Wiccan and I lean towards the Buddhist faith so again meshing wasn’t too difficult. Liz was way ahead of me when she said how deeply she felt the relationship was destined to succeed and flourish.
