Our Wedding

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Computer Love
Part 1....You never know where you're going to meet the love of you life, it can be at school, in the library,in your neighborhood,at the super market ,your place of worship,a blind date and now in the 21 century you can meet the love of your life on a dating app. Which prompted me to name my story 'Computer Love' 
From 2014 until March 2020 I was single and not dating I had a goal having previously coming out of a divorce and that goal was to find peace in my life and really, really just focus on me and contemplate on making better life decisions either it be financial decisions, health decisions and private life decisions. After owning a few retail locations and then rental properties and having to deal with so many people,issues and problems I decided to get my CDL and try driving for a living although I hated driving I needed peace in my life and I&#160; I believed in my heart after hearing other drivers said it bought them peace that it could also do the same for me,and may I admit that they absolutely were telling the truth. For years driving kept me focused and it bought me so much peace as it still does today and it gave me the time to contemplate on my life and how I wanted to move forward. So fast forward 5 years later after focusing on myself ,finding peace in my life and getting my finances in order I was missing that one piece to my puzzle ....... A companion.......
I was finally ready to meet someone and prayed to God that I would meet a great person. So I asked a friend of mine who was familiar with dating apps so he directed me to a particular dating app and it was a horrible experience,so I tried another app but that app was like playing a video game swiping left and swiping right and just like playing a video game people were doing just that ,they were playing around. I again tried another app and it just wasn't happening so I gave up. So I stayed focused and single for a another whole year and then in&#160; 2020 I was strolling through facebook and I saw an advertisement for Facebook dating app and decided to try it and immediately I liked the app because on the Facebook dating app the first thing that people who are interested in each other ask for are each others Facebook pages so both parties can see each other's profiles, pictures and post which tells a lot about a person. So after a month of diligently analyzing and seriously reading and looking at people who were interested in me profiles, pictures and post. I finally came across a profile that really, really caught my attention! It read " I don't need to&#160; smoke and drink to have fun" when I read that I then looked at the persons picture and she was beautiful her name was Kelly Oliver...
I turned all of my attention solely and only to this one person and forgot about everyone else 
Part 2..... I contacted Kelly on the app to let her know that I was interested in her and that it would be great if me and her could communicate with each other and get to know one another? Unlike all the other previous people I reached out to who responded immediately within a few hours or so, Kelly didn't respond right away,in fact she responded one week later with a simple hello and how are you doing?" I immediately responded gleefully and told her " I'm doing great now that you have responded " ! She went on to tell me that after carefully analyzing all&#160; my pictures and post looking for pictures with any red flag items in the background such as drugs,alcohol,women, she even went to the extent of looking at my haircuts,nails clothing,shoes overall just how my hygiene was and my personal care of myself. She analyzed my post to see if I misspelled words if I was literate if I comprehended well ,if I could read, if I could write,my political views,my criminal background and she even looked into my facebook friends list to see what type of people I associate with. Now that I know my dear Kelly I really, really know that she did everything she said she did , because my baby is extremely detailed and very,very thorough and will ask a million questions to get down to the bottom of an issue and she will also asks questions that she already knows the answers to,to see if your going to lie. I always tell her that she would make an excellent detective. So even then after messaging on the Facebook app for another month getting to know each other Kelly finally gave me her number to call her , when I called her she was at the park with her grandkids and like in our Facebook conversation she told me via phone conversation that being with her grandkids was a huge joy for her . We talked maybe 30 minutes and within that time we both realized that our conversation via phone was natural and not forced and very pleasant. Her voice was soft and her words concise and elegant just what I was looking for. 
Pt. 3.... On our second phone call Kelly asked me if I knew what she did for a living I told her no, I didn't know exactly but from her pictures on line at the time I thought maybe in corporate America but due to the way she asked me the question and her investigatory personality I playfully and seriously answered A police officer and to her surprise and to mine as well she said I was correct and asked how did I know? And I explained that she asks every question where no rocks were left unturned lol. We called each other morning,noon and night for a 3 weeks&#160; and finally we planned a date on the fourth week. So after a month of communicating on Facebook and another month of communicating via phone I was finally going to meet my Kelly. We planned it for a Sunday at a open Mic night venue in Greensboro NC at 7pm&#160; we both were prompt and parked basically at the same time next to each other I exited my car before her and went over to her car and opened the door for her and when she exited her vehicle she was as beautiful as her pictures on Facebook! In fact her Facebook pictures did her no justice. We went to the venue and the open Mic night had some phenomenal singers and the atmosphere seemed magical,me and Kelly were really into each other,the conversation was perfect. Then the music for SWV's song 'Weak" started to play and the singer at the open Mic started singing she sounded phenomenal I asked Kelly if she would dance with me she replied yes and we danced and I started singing that song to her like I still do to this day, and we have been dancing every since &#10084;&#65039;
