Rob and I are blessed in many ways. We have amazing families. Some of the most wonderful and genuine friends you could ever ask for. We have good jobs and are self reliant. We also are blessed to share an amazing love story. Rob and I crossed path's fleetingly over 6 years before we met thanks to the wonderful world of bodybuilding. It was a brief encounter but enough to have us become online friends and pen pals. Over the following 6 years we stayed pen pals and conversed frequently. We saw each other through many a bad relationship. Both of us gave up hope on ever finding love again! Our relationship stayed friendly and online even though the now bride to be found the groom BEYOND attractive and tried SEVERAL times to cross paths again. Then one day, the very handsome yet oblivious groom to be had posted that he was then single yet again and headed to the beach alone for a long holiday weekend... (awwwww).. The bride to be said "This can not be! My friends and I will go to the beach with you!" and to her surprise he did indeed invite them to go! Seeing each other again after so many years was like meeting for the first time! Butterflies and sunshine. They spent the entire day on the beach and to the chagrin of the friends spent most of the time kissing! Love has been found. Hope and faith has been restored. The universe has been set aright. We both say that the first time we met we were not meant to, that we needed to experience what we did to appreciate what we have. And now we plan on being in love and appreciating what we have for the rest of our lives!
