Our Story

11:11

My entire life Ive heard stories about true love and soulmates, but any and all love that I had experienced had hurt and caused confusion, up until I met Daniel.

November 7th, 2023, I was in a bad mood because of my sons father, he had decided that he was going to illegally withhold my son during my upcoming parenting time on the weekend and I was alone and sad. I was laying in bed scrolling through Facebook and I accidentally clicked in an ad for Hinge, a dating site. I had sworn off dating sites because of one bad experience, BUT I thought to myself Ok God wanted me to look on here, I might as well browse. I was thinking "maybe I will find somebody that will want to hang out this weekend and it will be a distraction from hurting due to not being able to see Hunter this weekend".....I browsed for a bit and it was the typical "not looking for anything serious" stuff and then I came across Daniels profile. His pictures caught my eye because he is gorgeous and then his About Me made me think that he was too good to be true, but I took my chances and messaged him. Little did I know, that morning Rosi (Daniels sister-in-law) had messaged Daniel asking him how dating was going. Daniel hadnt checked his dating apps for a while because he had felt discouraged by the few women he did date/talk to. Rosi's questioning caused Daniel to open up the dating app for the first time in a while. He saw that I had matched with him and we started messaging. Daniel was the only guy I talked to on that app and within an hour of messaging Daniel, I deleted my profile and the app. We messaged each other non stop, I just couldnt get enough of him. When we talked on the phone for the first time, his voice gave me instant butterflies but a sense of peace at the same time. Then the weekend came and I had worked over night but didnt sleep at all that day because I was too excited to meet Daniel that night. When I walked up to meet him for the first time, that was it, I knew he was the one. I ended up falling asleep at his place and I woke up the next day realizing I hadnt slept like that in forever. Daniel brought instant peace to my mind and soul. Then that Sunday we went to New Hope Church in the morning and went to another church service that night to see my friend Olivia sing and praise Jesus. I had always dreamed of having a man who would go to church with me and hold my hand during the service. It was one of the most beautiful date days ever. We both knew instantly we found the other half of ourselves we had been searching for our entire lives. He has changed me in so many good ways. He only ever uplifts me. We are such an amazing team. Ive never felt so NOT alone in my life. We moved fast, yes, but why would we wait if we were so certain about each other?! Hes my best friend. My laugh lines have become more noticeable because of him! I could sit in a room in silence with him and I would be content. God has blessed me so much. With Jesus as our foundation NOTHING will ever break our bond as husband and wife. He is my forever person and I thank Jesus daily for sending Daniel to me.
