New and Improved Introduce Yourself and Post a pic thread!

[Matt79]

Hi all, I'm Matt, 34 from the uk. My partner Steve 42 and I have been together 16 years and had our civil partnership 5 years ago. I work as a night shift manager in retail and Steve is a magician.
We've been to Disneyworld every year for the past five years, this year we've decided for a change and will be going snowboarding in Andorra.
Favourite disney park would be Epcot, especially when the drink and food festival is on!
Don't think I've ever watched a disney film that I haven't enjoyed in some way but my fave would probably be the lion king.
Once I hit the required number of posts I'll put up a photo of the two of us.

Hi, I'm Mike and my partner is Steve. We live in Sulphur Springs, Texas; we have been together for 8 years and have been making trips to Disney at least once a year since 2008. We bought into the Vacation Club in 2009 and have not regretted it at all. I just turned 51 and Steve will turn 33 this fall. My favorite Disney movie is Lion King, followed by Beauty and the Beast. Favorite Princess is Belle. Out next trip is coming up shortly, we will be on Disney Property starting on Friday the 13th in September.

This is my bf Daniel and I. I'm taking him on his first cruise on the Magic in October and then for a couple days in WDW.

He's not a huge Disney fan, but tolerates it enough to humor me. He has relegated my Disney stuff to the second (smaller) guestroom and taken the larger for his personal closet.

His favorite character is Ariel and movie is The Little Mermaid. He doesn't have a favorite park, as he's only been to MK for one afternoon in his teens.

He says he is a cross between Gaston and Party-saurus Rex.

Hello everyone!!! So glad to "meet" you all! My name is Cristina and my partners name is Alex! I am 25, she is 28 and we have been together for a little over 5 years. We were born and raised near Boston and now reside in a town called Weymouth, (about 15 miles away from the city center). We would love to meet others that live around the area? I am a huge huge Disney fan and FINALLY converted my girlfriend into an ALMOST bigger fan than I. We are going on our second trip this October 15th-22nd, staying at the CBR. Anyone else going around then? I am trying to insert a picture hopefully it works!

My name is Mike, I had passes a few years ago an renewed them last month. My boyfriend is going for his first Disney trip since high school next week.

We live near Tampa, so only a few hours away. Plan to go as many times as possible this year.

He is not a big Disney fan as me, but we are both big guys, and he is excited about the fact that Disney understands that( we both have had problems getting on rides at other theme parks)

It would be too hard to pick my favorite Disney movie or character.

Hey everyone! Curtis (40) here and my DH Lucas (28). I'm the big Disney freak, but Lucas is catching up quickly! I brought him to his very first trip to WDW this past May (after his first DCL cruise in December!). It was actually him who suggested we have our wedding at Disney so we are in January! Very excited!!! We had the legal ceremony here in DC a few weeks ago so we are legally married now We are headed back to WDW next month after we visit my parents too Can't get enough of the Mouse! Our favorite characters are Chip and Dale (we refer to them as The Boys, hehe). Anyway, just rambling now

This is us on the cruise! I'm on the right and Lucas is on the left.

Hey everyone. Toby here. 31 and living in Atlanta. Huge Disney Geek (and former CPer with Epcot Science). Still single and searching for my Disney Prince (maybe a few of us should form a club. haha). Excited for a quick solo trip over Labor Day - and otherwise getting use of the Annual Pass I (finally) bought in June.

 

[vascubaguy]

Not new to the boards, but I visit less frequently these days. I posted on the original intro thread, but figured I would reintroduce us here. David (37) and I, Chris (37), have been together for 10 years. We were both born and raised in Virginia, but after finishing my PhD, I uprooted us to follow a great career opportunity. We only moved 3.5-6 hours away (depending on traffic) and now reside in Annapolis, Maryland. We've been here 2 years and this past weekend I found another box in the closet that I needed to unpack.

Anyway, David is the Disney nut, but he pulled me into it with little effort. I had only been to WDW once prior to meeting him. Now, we are DVC members and at one point were going twice each year. We haven't been in 2 years, but I wasn't going to let DVC points expire, so we are heading back this Saturday to the Bay Lake Towers for a much needed and deserved vacation!

I know we have tons of more recent pics of us together, but they are saved on the computers at home. However, I found a pic of us at Epcot from several years ago and we look pretty much the same, just add a few lbs and specks of grey hair. David (left), me (right)

Hey Guys.

Name is Jay and I live in boston. I am 27 but a HUGE Disney fan and love going to WDW when I can. Proud DVC member with my family. Always enjoy family trips but I am at the point where I would like to take trips with friends or a significant other who are also fans.

Would love to meet other gay disney fans and hopefully make friends who can potentially become travel buds to visit the mouse. Here's to new friends who enjoy the magic just as much as I do
