Thanks for sharing your experience. I met my husband on Match.com in February 2005. Married him in November 2005. We just celebrated 17 years together. I knew exactly what I wanted and met over 100 guys for coffee until I met him. It was a time consuming and difficult process but I knew he was out there and I looked and looked until I found him. Congratulations to you finding your guy. It's worth the effort. Neither of us wanted children either. But we do have a dog who is spoiled rotten.

It sounds like we followed a similar path! Dating sites have their detractors but it's all about how you use them. Since I'm not social at all, it was probably the best option for me

I wish I had done this. It would have saved me so much heartache. But, God in His amazing grace, safely led me through all my messy mistakes to my wonderful husband. I absolutely recommend the path you took. Good for you for being strong enough to take it. And, thank you for sharing this part of your life story.

God's grace came my way too. But in my case with a wonderful woman (40 years of doing life together—not easy, but together).

Okay, I thought ocean lifeguards from Philly were crude (when I was one - 1980s). But Marines! Wow! That is low. Very nice post Kristin.
