Trust the System

Posted by Leticia, 07 Dec

Just how did users “Naturalette” and “MadiGray” meet and marry via our site? It all began when the duo decided to venture online in search of love…

Madi says he was looking for a change. “I was interested in a different type of woman,” he tells us. “However, because of my location, I was limited.” So he posted an online dating profile for the first time. Fortunately, he chose us to join, because that’s where Nicolette made her first foray into Internet personals, too!

“Yes, it was my first experience with online dating,” she confirms. “I was ready to try something new compared to standard dating, especially due to COVID.”

However, that doesn’t mean that Nicolette was entirely certain she was ready for this endeavor. “I wasn’t sure what to expect,” she admits. “I was kind of nervous, to be honest!” Madi was more at home with it, telling us, “I was confident in using the site.”

One week into his membership, Madi spotted “Naturalette” on our site. “I’d just come from work,” he recalls. This new profile had just been posted by none other than Nicolette. Madi says he knew it might be an important find from “the first time I saw her photo. She was beautiful, natural, and I had deep feelings [from the start].” So he reached out to Nicolette. “He sent the Flirt flowers and I flirted back,” she says. “He was exactly my type.”

What did Nicolette like about Madi’s profile? “I liked the fact that he was talented in multiple ways, as well as his handsomeness,” she explains. In fact, Nicolette says she knew from the beginning that this match would be special. “From the first conversation,” she emphasizes. “My mom was sick and he was there for me verbally/mentally.”

It wasn’t long before tangible plans were made to meet in person. “Something in my heart said I needed to fly to the Gambia to meet this man,” notes Nicolette. “He had all the qualities I desired!” As for Madi, he was more than ready to host her in his home country. “She is real, approachable, and our love is destined to be,” says the happy hubby, reiterating, “I fell in love at first sight.”

Soon after stepping off the plane in the Gambia, Nicolette was welcomed into Madi’s world. “I introduced her to my family,” he says. During their first in-person interactions Madi remembers thinking, “She is beautiful, smart, real, and natural!” Nicolette says that upon meeting face to face her first thought about Madi was, “He is everything that I hoped and prayed for. Handsome, strong, talented, good morals and personality.”

Nothing about Madi failed to fit with the good impression Nicolette got from his profile and their early communication. Except this. She remarks that “his patience” was something that didn’t come across in the profile. Madi didn’t overpromise and under-deliver! “He was exactly who he said he was,” Nicolette declares. “Same,” Madi says of her.

So the visit went pretty well, then? “We are gonna spend the rest of our lives together,” says Madi. It’s safe to say that after their first romantic times together both singles were sure they’d see each other again. “We were so sure that we got married!” laughs Nicolette, adding that Madi proposed over the phone.

Before these two could tie the knot there were snags to unravel, however. The couple list some obstacles they had to overcome: “Distance, time zones, laws, and family judgment.” But Madi was more than worth it to Nicolette. “He is the most adaptable, honest man ever,” she beams. Respect is a two-way street. “She is straightforward and motivated,” Madi says of his wife.

For them, finding love was worth any sacrifice. “It’s changed my life so drastically,” marvels Nicolette. “My husband is from a whole other culture, lifestyle, and country! I have learned so much and I still have much more to learn.”

To help other singles learn from their experience, the happy couple has shared a few thoughts about online dating. “Just be patient, honest, and your truest self,” Nicolette advises. “Be patient and honest,” agrees Madi. “And have lots of faith. Trust the system.”

The system sure worked for these two, and in short order!

    I completely understand how most of the people here, primarily women are saying what l'm feeling: finding someone sincere, and serious while meeting at least some of your requirements is difficult; tricky at best. One problem is that there are still more women in the world than men in general, and men know that. They can "shop around for as long as they please, trying a different "flavor" each time, until they find one they like. Unfortunately, especially those of child baring age, or older don't have that luxury. The odds and numbers are realistically, not in our favor. I have however, had long-term relationships and dates via online, but not on this website much. Not sure why that is, but it's true. Perhaps it's just the luck of the draw as some might say, if luck REALLY has anything to do with it at all. Be that as it may: Good Luck to "ALL The Single Ladies..."

Coaching Testimonial

"My online love inspiration angel"

Submitted by: Patricia, USA, 21

To be honest, in the beginning, I thought it would be a waste of time. But since I've never seen a similar service in any other dating site, I decided to give it a try.

I always "thought" my profile was on point and I did not need any help to correct my page. I always had in my profile if someone is not attracted to my profile, then that's "their" loss.

BOY WAS I WRONG!!

I will never forget my first time using the Coaching Service I was introduced to my personal Dating Coach. Let me put it this way, if it was not for her I would have given up long time ago (even though I'm a new member).

She taught me so many things and gave me good advice, I did not want to stop chatting with her at all.

She opened my eyes to many possibilities when finding love. She is definitely an inspiration and I appreciate a whole lot. She is more than a Dating Coach to me; she is more of a close friend/guide to me. She is definitely my "online love-inspiration angel".
