When we met we knew that we were meant for each other.
Don aka: Native of CA and Melinda aka: KmelindaH met on Christian Mingle on 7-15-2009 and started writing and sending each other pictures. Both of us have now met and fell in love.......We want to have a committed relationship and hope that others will not feel the websites do not work. Both of us have met numerous people on Christian Mingle, some were wonderful, some not, but when we met we knew that we were meant for each other. We will ask God for guidance in this relationship and seek His will to guide us for our future.

Love is not always local.
I was looking for my forever friend in AZ. He was looking in Ontario, Canada. We would have never found each other if not for Christian Mingle. Love is not always local. Be open to God's plan.

I never knew true love until I met him.
I was adamant about not meeting anyone online, and like most people, I was just 'looking' to see what was out there.
Jeremy (Jchristianson) sent me a smile, but I didn't have a paid account, so we kept smiling at each other until we were able to contact one another and meet in person.
When we first met, I thought he was a great guy, but no immediate sparks. I got to know him as a person and saw what a wonderful guy he was, in fact in time, I felt confirmation from God that he was the one I'd waited my whole life for. Our friendship soon blossomed into love and we are now an "exclusive couple". We keep remarking on how uncannily we match each other. I often tell him that I think he's the boy version of me! I know God has brought us together and I am thankful everyday to Him for Jeremy.
Cheesy as it sounds, I never knew true (human) love until I met Jeremy. We are planning on getting married next year and just cannot wait to start our lives together as husband and wife! Big ups to ChristianMingle for contributing to our meeting!

God Brought Us Together
After one CM date, I decided that I was not ready to date, but rather needed to heal from the recent death of my husband. The chat rooms were great as they brought me in contact with other widows and widowers. I spent hours in the 50’s chat room both laughing and crying. One day in August of 2009, I jumped to the main chat room to escape a conversation in the 50’s chat room. While there, I noticed a certain shyguy0520 talking to the group, but he did not notice me. The next day, I again returned to the main chat room when I again was uncomfortable in the 50’s room. While there, shyguy0520 entered the room. I greeted him with, “hey shyguy who is not so shy.” He immediately responded to me and in the course of conversation took a look at my profile. I then looked at his profile and we discovered that we answered the same on the items that were the most important to us. It was the beginning of a whirlwind relationship. We soon discovered that we had a lot of things in common, such as we are both Baptist Preacher’s kids. Shyguy0520 had also lost his wife three years ago, had been praying for a new love for a while and was just waiting for her identity to be revealed. He was convinced in a few days, that I was the one God had in mind. I learned very quickly that shyguy0520 is not shy when it comes to pursuing God’s will. I loved how much he loved God. He prayed with me the first day he called me on the phone, and we have not missed a day of praying together since. He made arrangements to fly from North Carolina to Houston, TX to meet me in person over Labor Day weekend. We had prayed about things and knew that if there was a spark when we met in person, we would know that this was God’s will (but we were both already convinced it was). I was very nervous when I met him at the airport, so I hid behind a plant until I saw him. When we met, he hugged me for about 5 minutes. We knew. Before he returned to North Carolina, he asked me to marry him. He didn’t feel that we could announce our engagement if I didn’t have a ring, so we didn’t become officially engaged until after I flew to North Carolina on October 7th. The original plan was to get engaged on October 8th, pick up a marriage license to use when I returned in November. We were to marry November 22nd, and then honeymooned over the Thanksgiving holiday. With the marriage license in hand and the difficulties in finding places to stay while visiting him in North Carolina, the temptation to go ahead and get married was overwhelming. So later that day, we went down to the Polk County Jail and asked the Magistrate to marry us. We didn’t tell anyone we were married until we went to church on Sunday and shyguy0520, who was leading singing at his church, introduced me as his wife. It isn’t easy being married to someone who lives 1,000 miles away, but we will hopefully be together in Texas full time soon. I don’t know how we would survive without the ability to web-cam every day. The sad part of our union, is that we have to leave ChristianMingle. I will never forget the wonderful people here that helped me deal with my grief or the ones that just made me laugh. It is great to be surrounded by fellow Christians. There is nothing like it.
Thank you ChristianMingle.com for our wonderful success story!!!

We are two halves of the same whole, created by our Father
I met Tina on ChristianMingle. She reached out to me and offered the friendship and understanding that I really needed. First she sent me an email, then we spent some time in chat, and eventually we decided to talk on the phone. But as we got to know each other, and discovered how much we have in common, and how right we are for each other, I still forced myself to push her away. I felt that it was too soon, and that I was too damaged to even think about getting involved with someone. I just couldn't stay away. We started spending hours and hours on the phone, every night, without any awkward silence. As time went on, I realized more and more that I couldn't stop thinking about her. All I wanted to do was talk to her, even if I had nothing interesting to say. I refused to accept that I was falling in love and there was nothing I could do about it. Eventually, my feelings for her overpowered my fear and insecurity and I had to meet her. I was prepared to call this meeting a date, but I was completely unprepared for how strong my feelings for her would be. When I saw her in person for the first time, she was so lovely and elegant and utterly beautiful that I could hardly keep from shaking. And as we sat down for dinner, I looked across the table to her and realized that she was real and my feelings for her were overwhelming and nothing short of amazing. At that point, I was completely out of strength and could not resist loving her any more. We are two halves of the same whole, created by our Father specifically for one another. I know that Jesus was smiling that night because two of his children found each other and finally found their place together. He even preformed a little miracle just for us as an undeniable sign that this is right. Since then, our time together has been surrounded by an all encompassing romance that we never thought was possible. I thank God for Tina and I thank Tina for her love. I love you Tina, and I look forward to every day of the rest of my life, because of you.
