Tammy & Grant: ''There was an immediate connection''

How did you meet? What was your first date like?

On June 27th, 2018 I (Grant-47) was going on Christian Mingle for the last time to close my account. I was frustrated with online dating. I thought I would give it one more try. I saw a beautiful silver haired woman whose profile mentioned her strong love for Jesus (Tammy-52).

I sent her a smile, not thinking I would get an answer back. I received a smile back quickly even though this woman had just signed up and was not on often. We messaged back and forth for an hour. Then we talked on the phone for a while. We set up a time to meet for coffee two days later at My Half of the Sky in Wheaton, Illinois. My Half of the Sky is a Christian ministry coffee house that donates and helps girls get out of sex-trafficking.

We talked for three hours about our testimonies, our love for Christ and our backgrounds. Tammy had to go to an appointment. I said “though it may sound a little forward and perhaps pushy, what are you doing after your appointment?” Surprised, she said “I’m not sure.” So I asked her to dinner, and she said yes. Dinner went very well too; there was an immediate connection.

Describe the moment you knew it was true love!

“I pretty much knew immediately
