She wore a yellow trench coat…

Posted by Leticia, 02 Feb

Before they met, both David and Tanja knew they were more selective than some about what they required in a romantic partner. “We both tell friends and family that had we not found each other, we probably would never have married,” David says. “We both felt strongly that who we were looking for was pretty rare.”

Perhaps that clear sense of what they wanted was what made these two people pursue a relationship when most would have ruled it out. David and Tanja were about as far apart geographically as two human beings can be - when they met on our site, almost 6000 miles separated them. “We sent a great deal of time getting to know each other from long distance,” David says. “I was in Phoenix and Tania was in Duisburg, Germany.”

What first caught David’s eye was Tanja’s profile photo, in which she wore a stylish yellow mid-length trench-coat. “I fell in love with her long brown hair and cool, independent personality,” David confesses.

The couple have now been married for more than a year. “We’re living the lives we wanted,” David says. “We highly recommend this site for finding your life partner. It makes the search considerably more efficient when you match wants and needs!”

    the story is quite an inspiration and one of those wonderful impossibilities that only love can make possible,like the biblical david, mr david is a man of steel and iron, i wish them eternal bliss and hope that all that come to this site will be rewarded in like manner.

    David is a friend of mine who told me about this site. I always thought that the inspirational stories were just a marketing gimmick until David told me he found love and got married. So I've been on the site, met someone and dated long distance for about a year...while he wasn't the one, I have hope to find the man for me on this site!

    It proves what I've thought all along. If you have the right attitude you will find what you are looking for. We cannot limit ourselves to those that are in close proximity. We are so lucky to live in this age where we can reach out to great distances. We must be wise and take advantage of the opportunity. I suppose it's a matter of priorities. Some people shut themselves off to long distance hook ups even though that is just the start of things. I can not understand why more people do not see the great chances we have if we widen the field.
