    'grats BBM :biggrin

    I'm also very much an advocate of that scene.

    Met by fella on there. Don't know how. He's a Villa fan. And the first thing I said to him went along the lines of 'Juan Pablo Angel looks like a t*t with a headband on'.

    hmmm.......

    But much :clap :slidedrin

    I met my G/f in an online chat room 3 years ago... we just started talking with a load of others and eventually hit it off. She wasnt the first person i was interested in from online, the 1st failed to work out tho she was a lovely woman, and others were interested due to the way i chatted online. But my current one was the one who i chatted to online the most, and then spent 3 hours a night on the fone to as well.

    And our first meeting was at a friends who we both new online. And that 1st meeting was 3 years ago last week!! Ahhh now i know why she was asking if i thought last friday was a special day........:oops:

    So from experience i can truly say dating somone from online can work!

    I met my wife in 1980 when we were both volunteering for a Suicide Prevention Hotline in Berkeley. This coming March, we'll have been married for 24 years. My parents have been married for well over 50 years.

    Congrats BBM. While opposites attract, I still firmly believe that services like that are excellent. I know that if God didn't bless me with my wife, I'd either be dead, in jail, or (best case scenario) on Match.com. btw -- 7 years dating, 8 years married.
