I instantly liked @dyadka_yar on here because he seemed thoughtful and genuine. He took the time to actually get to know me. Always asking me questions. We video chatted and texted for three months before I felt safe enough to meet in real life. I planned a trip to NYC (I'm originally from NY so I wanted to meet somewhere I felt comfortable). We had fun doing various activities for a few days. We decided we liked each other a lot irl so we long distance dated for a year (PA & NH). We would videochat on weekdays and go to each other's houses on a lot of weekends. We always have fun together and have similar values. We got engaged on a beach vacation and got married exactly a year later. Long distance sucks, but sometimes it's worth it. We've been happily married over two years.
