Married March 29th, 2001
On December 5, 2000 a friend suggested to Frank that he search americansingles.com for someone with whom he could have some fun. After entering the qualities he was searching for in a "friend", my profile and picture appeared.
Since I was looking for a long term relationship and Frank "Never wanted to marry again", he decided to CHANGE the criteria. Well, he did this FIVE times and my picture appeared EVERY time! LOL
Frank decided this must be an omen so he emailed me. I answered his email the next day and since he was working in Durham and I lived in Chapel Hill, we spoke on the phone a few minutes later. We had an immediate connection!
We made a date for the following night, Thursday, December 7th at a restaurant in Durham called Gibson's Steakhouse. It was a wonderful dinner and when I told Frank that I enjoyed singing karaoke, he suggested that we go to another restaurant called Too J's since they had karaoke on Friday nights.
So, we left Gibson's and proceeded to Too J's where we spent the next few hours. We hugged goodbye and agreed to meet back there the following evening for karaoke.
That was December 8th and after many wonderful dinners and nights of karaoke, on Monday, March 7, 2001 Frank and I went back to Too J's once more for dinner and to become engaged.
After agreeing to marry, we decided that it would be a great idea to have the ceremony at Too J's since Jeff and Jerry, the owners, and Paul, our waiter, had become such a meaningful part of our relationship. Going to Too J's is like going home.
So, on March 29, 2001 Frank and I married at 4pm in the Garden Room at Too J's Tavern & Grill.
Frank is the man I have only dared to dream about. He is truly romantic, respectful, loyal, thoughtful, kind, humerous and dependable. There are so many other superlatives I could use to describe Frank but I won't take any more of your time.
Suffice it to say that I have found my soulmate and I hope you find yours!! Everyone should be as happy as Frank and I!!!!
