Long distance
Long distance
Long distance was never a worry for us
"I hesitated at first to 'smile' at Thomas because I thought "He is so good looking" - I thought he had lots and lots of smiles and didn't want to be "just another one". But after going back and forth from deciding to ‘smile’ at him, I took the plunge and did it! To my surprise he smiled back. I was so excited!"

Our lives are now complete
"I think we both thought we were at a stage in our lives where perhaps love and an adult relationship just weren’t going to be that exciting and interesting, that it was just going to come down to settling for someone ‘good enough’."

Our six-day first date
"That first nervous phone conversation however was the icing on the cake so to speak, so we made plans to meet. Daily photos, texts, emails and phone conversations followed as we continued to get to know each other, but we knew, despite the distance between us geographically, there was something far too special about our blossoming friendship to ignore."

Those first date butterflies
"We'd be thinking about what each other would message back for the whole day, and it was exhilarating to read through each other’s messages and hurriedly type back, going over and over the words, making sure they were just right!!"

The dimension of love
"When we finally met in person, or as I like to say, in ‘3D’, it quickly became obvious that our honesty in all of our conversations was going to stand us in good stead in our endeavours to develop not just a friendship, but a loving relationship."

World's apart
"All of a sudden I felt a tap on my shoulder, I turned around and there he was, standing right behind me. I was so relieved - I hugged him and kissed him on the cheek. The rest of the day was so surreal having him there with me, being able to reach out and touch him and not see him through a screen was so amazing."

Love, Long Distance
"After completing my profile I was first matched with what seemed to be a lovely guy from the Gold Coast called Chris. I decided to send along an icebreaker and see if it would go anywhere. I was soon to be very surprised."

Why wait?
"Originally we decided that Heath would come over to Tassie to meet me here, as I have my daughter to look after. He booked to fly over on the 10th March, however, in getting to know each other through phone calls every night, emails every day, I decided I didn’t want to wait so long to meet."
