Hello fellow RP women and men.
I wanted to update you all from a post I gave a year ago here
It was that post on this subreddit that helped lead me to my best friend and soon to be husband. He answered a reply on my original post and I replied to it, as I was thanking everyone for their comments. We ended up clicking right away and soon discovered that we had many things in common including, senses of humor, interests, life goals, backgrounds, and personalities. He is everything I was looking for in a best friend and later significant other. Since then we have been together as of August 23, 2018.
We were in a long term distance relationship for 9 months before he flew out to see me officially for my graduation last May. We were nervous and my parents even more so but the moment we met, I never felt more sure about anything. During our visit he gave me a promise ring and said it would be upgraded soon.
I then flew back with him, to Canada, and stayed with his family for 4 months. Now, we are back in my hometown for the holidays. Before Christmas he plans speaking with my father about marrying me. We picked out a small white gold band together earlier this month and we’re very excited to have ‘us’ in motion to get married.
We plan on a very small wedding as soon as possible, early 2020, as we aren’t into parties as our families are so far apart. We are soon going to be working on getting American citizenship for him (any tips would be appreciated if you’ve gone through the same experience).
I am so thankful for the many lessons RPW has taught me about being more comfortable as a women and as a future wife. This subreddit has brought us together and strengthen our relationship, I wanted to let everyone know that prayers really are answered and you’ll find life changing events in unlikely places.
I never expected to be an online love story as I always thought I’d find someone the traditional way however I wouldn’t change a thing. We both put so much work in during our distance part of our relationship that when we were together it was so effortlessly natural to be a couple. I’m so excited for marriage and being able to spend the rest of my life with this man.
Thank you for your comments and posts on this discussion board it has taught me so much about being feminine and letting go.
