), so I thought I would start a thread for people to post their stories . . .
And I decided that I was ready to share the new me with someone, but I was really nervous, so I made a list of everything that the new person had to be, and I decided that if a man wasnt everything on my list, he wasnt the guy for me. It was about that time that I got a free 3-day trial for Match.com. So I decided to go for it, (secretly). He was the only person that I messaged, and I sat around for 3 days and waited for him to respond. I signed on constantly to check to see if he had signed on and read my message. It was the day after my free trial ended when he responded (he has amazing timing). It turned out that he hadnt checked his message because he moved to Maryland, (bummer!). But we decided that we were both willing to try a long distance relationship, because there was something special about this.After that everything happened really fast. We moved him back to PA last October, and our wedding is this October! 
We both knew that night that we were meant to meet and that we were going to spend the rest of our lives together. He is not the kind of guy I would have usually dated but since I wasn't looking for anything serious...lol I gave it a shot.
), I knew he was the one for me. I was hooked completely from the first kiss. 
that's incredibly romantic...
Let there be hope 
We got to talking and a few days later, I found out my grandpa was dying. I went to Kansas to say goodbye to him adn was surprised to find out that my now hubby called me everyday to make sure everything was ok. We met a week later and dated for six years. He stuck by me even through a disasterous leg injury I suffered two months after graduating from college in 2003 where I crushed my tibia femur bone. We got married in 2006 in a beautiful lodge and had our honeymoon at WDW/cruise. 
Aww I love that story!!!!! That is so incredibly sweet and romantic! 
Two interviews later, he started working with me in November '06! As soon as I saw him, I was speechless. I always tell him I heard violins and time stood still and that we shook hands and locked eyes for at least 30 seconds when we first met. He disagrees with the movie I have pictured in my head. Really, my co worker and I thought he was rude because we waited hours for him to introduce himself to us and we ended up just going over to him ourselves. 
He was just shy! He was soooo right! 
), and October 3, 1993 we were married. Our story began years ago........................
My DH was a senior and I was a sophmore (1987)...he ran with the party, theater, punk rocker click..I was a football/basketball cheerleader (he says I was a snob, but I beg to differ!). It was a small high school (500 total) so you kind of knew who everyone was.
A few years later (January 1991) I recieved a letter in the mail from a soldier in the Gulf War. At first I was puzzled, I didn't know anyone serving in the war. Well when I opened and read the letter, it was from the partier, theater, punk rocker kid from high school. I was taken back that he had written me a letter. I only knew him to say,"hi", in the hallway of school and that was 4 years ago. In his letter he wrote about all the different situations over there, and that he was just remembering my warm smile and took a chance and wrote to me (he had asked a friend from home to look up my address). We started writting back and forth for months. Then one day while at work (I was working at a hair salon back then) the door opened and in walked a man in his army dress uniform. My heart dropped. It was one of those experiences when you know in that second your life has changed. When ever he was home on leave we would go out-still just friends-talking and laughing for hours. In late September 1991 he finished his tour in the army, and moved back to our town. On October 3, 1991 we went on our first "real" date. June 5, 1992 he asked me to marry him, at a stop sign with traffic behind us (how romantic
We now have 3 terrific children, and this past fall celebrated our 15 year anniversay. Where/how did we celebrate? Adults only trip to WDW!!!
I'll go!
DF and I did meet at Disney!
In 2004 I did the WDWCP. I moved home once it was done in January but by June I was packing my things and moving back to Orlando where I had two jobs lined up, one using my degree, and the other a weekend job at Disney. I was moving in with my college program roommate who was going down for an Advanced Internship in Guest Relations and I somehow had also managed to get a part time spot in GR as well.
We went through all of the training together and I was treated to all the perks of being an Intern. One of those perks is a scavenger hunt around the MK hosted by the former interns. Well on the night of our scavenger hunt the last clue lead us to the Cinema on Main Street. We got to that last clue fairly quickly and the former interns were banking on us not knowing the person who was maning the Cinema so we would kill a bunch of time. However as soon as we walked in my roommate went running over to this one guy.
Turns out she had met him on our college program at the Adventurers Club and he had told her all about GR and he was basically the reason she applied for the internship. So since my roommate gave him away he had to kill a ton of time and did so by using some of his strategies from the Family Magic Tour and having us march and sing around Town Square. He also had us dance in the middle of Main Street before Spectro.
It was a really fun evening. Though Jeff disappeared at some point during the night and we didn't really talk then he did keep popping up on my radar over the coming weeks. Eventually, after I freaked him out by fake overbooking his VMK tour and he stole my shoes, we had our first date at Boma where he gave me a green crayon. And here we are 4 years later (on Monday)
I like to say he was the last stop on my scavenger hunt
our second date was to go see titanic- left the movie and his pathfinder had been stolen!!!! thankfully he didn't take it as a bad sign! lol
