    Was looking at a nightclubs Facebook page and noticed an absolutely stunning black girl in one of the events photos they post up every week.

    She was tagged so I sent her a message asking if she'd like to meet up for a coffee. Took a few weeks to get her to meet me as it was kind of like an interview on Facebook! But a friendly one.

    Anyway we eventually went on a date. That was last June. Now we're all "official" and stuff :)

    We met in a chat room, actually we were both being grammar nazis and commenting on spelling mistakes.

    That was five years ago, we met in real life almost three years ago, moved in together four months later, and we're having a civil partnership in July.

    She was auditing our books. Our eyes met over a tricky reserve position and haven't looked back since.

    On a dating site last March :) Getting married this May.

    I wish you the very best, that's a really nice story :)

    Just to back you up too.

    I met an amazing girl on pof last year. She is one of the soundest girls I've ever known. We decided a relationship wasn't the best thing for us at the time, but we still remain very good friends and can tell each other anything! It actually seems like I know her years!

    To other people doubting mauzo's situation. Online dating isn't all about the "shag". There are a lot of genuine people on there too who are looking for more, you just have to find the right one for you.

    I think everyone is convinved it won't work because we only know each other a year. Doesn't feel like that to us though, or anyone that knows us!

    Sorry, should have said, that's what I meant in the first part of my post. Like, it's amazing how much of a connection you can build with somebody in only a year. As I said, it seems like we know each other years. :)

    Same college class, saw her thought she was was out of my league, she thought I was an arrogant arse. We were both right! Getting married this year.
