Back in 2008, I was using this site to try and find a nice guy. One day I noticed someone had started a forum discussion on the worst pickup lines ever used on you. I posted 2 of them and that was it. Two days later I get an email from a man in Georgia apologizing to me for being spoken to that way, and saying i didn't deserve that. I was not going to answer because I lived in NJ. But since he was nice enough to say that, I could be nice enough to say thank you. I also gave him my email saying we could be email buddies because in my mind nothing could happen since we lived so far apart and at the time he was 51 and i was about to turn 35. We emailed and chatted on here for about a week before I gave him my phone number. Our first phone conversation lasted 6 hours. We began talking every day, several times a day..all the while I kept thinking "It's nice to have a friend I can talk to all the time".
In august 2008, I found out I would need surgery, and Tim offered to take off work and come to NJ for a week to take care of me, and we hadnt met yet. I knew then, he was special. He came to NJ for the very first time a few weeks later, and we had the best time! He was so sweet, funny and charming. it was the first time in my life i didn't care if i looked silly out in public. Then, I came to Georgia for a week at the end of November and had a great time. At a family wedding at the end of that week, my father thanked him for showing me a such a nice time. His response was "I'm just getting started." For my parents 40th wedding anniversary a month later, he sent them each a CD he made of music that was popular in 1968.
On Christmas Eve 2008, he called to wish my parents a Merry Christmas and asked if he could propose. He then got on the phone and proposed. I moved to Georgia in April 2009 to be with him. During a trip to Disney World 2 weeks later, while we were having a picture taken, he got down on one knee and formally proposed.
In February we got married in Disney. I could not have asked for a better man to be with. He has given me a place where i feel like I fit in, a home, a family, and a place where i feel loved. I still cannot believe at times that the man of my dreams was 900 miles away from me and that I would find him here, but I did.
So thank you datehookup and thank you honey for being nice to me. Everyone still looking: don't discount someone just cause they live far away from you..you never know what could happen!

What a beautiful story - I too am a NJ girl and these southern boys are nothing we have ever experienced up north! They know how to love and treat  a woman. Thanks to all the southern women who didnt realize what they left behind! Congratulations and hang on to that man tight.
