Sibel (35)

“Hi, I’m Sibel. While reading happy stories like these and seeing real lives unfold, I found myself thinking, ‘Should I join too?’ and before I knew it, I had signed up to this site. It felt like looking for a needle in a haystack: would I really be able to find the right person, the right kind of love? I received many messages asking to connect. But I didn’t want to be chosen, I wanted to choose.

My intention was a serious relationship, and just as I was wondering whether I could find someone who was serious like me, on the 15th day of my membership I noticed a profile from Ankara and a description that truly reflected his thoughts. I immediately left a comment. Then a message came to introduce himself. After two weeks of talking on the phone and on MSN, when he traveled all the way from Diyarbakır to İzmir, I was absolutely sure I had found the love I’d been searching for. That was him! From across the square, right by the clock tower, a smiling man with sweet dimples was waving at me as he walked toward me. It was love and affection that began at that very moment, warming us from the inside! That day we hugged each other tightly, and the man I said “welcome to my life” to is now my husband of one full year. We met on September 17, and two months later, on this very day, we got married. Thank you to this site, where we met thanks to eÇift.

My dear husband! In memory of today, these words are for you: I’m so glad you exist, and so glad I met you. May God grant us to grow old together in happiness and peace, just as we are today, and one day become grandparents, God willing. I LOVE YOU SO, SO MUCH. WITH ALL MY LOVE.”
