Cyber Love Story of the Week – Amy and David
October 16, 2009
This weekend, Amy and David are getting married on National Sweetest Day.
Amy didn’t have much faith in cyber dating. She put up her profile on Mate1.com and was getting ready to remove her online dating profile when she received an email from David. As soon as she saw his picture, she knew immediately that he was “the one.” Sound too good to be true? Well, read on.
After exchanging a few emails, the two started talking on the phone. Soon they realized they had so much in common, they just had to meet.
David drove over two hours and met Amy on his birthday. On their third date, which was Valentine’s Day, David proposed to Amy and they have been inseparable ever since. According to Amy, David is the absolute love of her life that she had been looking for her entire life. Amy moved from Ohio to be with David who lived in Indiana. Ask Amy and David, and they will tell you there is a thing called true love.
Congratulations to Amy and David who met on Mate1.com from your friends at CyberDatingExpert.com.
Cyber Love Story of the Week – The 2 Kellys
August 21, 2009
Kelly and Kelly Hildebrandt
What’s more exciting than meeting the love of your life, becoming engaged, and getting married? This love story of two people with the same name who met on Facebook will warm your heart.
It all started 15 months ago when a girl named Kelly Hildebrandt did a Facebook search of her name and was surprised to find a guy with both the same first and last name. She thought it was funny and out of curiosity, she contacted him in an email that simply said, “Hi, saw we had the same name….thought that was cool, just wanted to say hi!”
The male Kelly saw her email, thought she was cute, and it was the first spark of a powerful flame that led to a beautiful online dating courtship.
After several weeks of correspondence, he flew to Florida to meet the woman with his name, and within months he moved there to be with his new love. After eight months of meeting on Facebook, the couple became engaged.
The Kellys have appeared on the Today show and in numerous articles world-wide about their new found love. In my conversation with the male Kelly, I asked him how confusing it was at home when the phone rang. He explained that they had separate cell phones and in order to avoid the obvious confusion they began referring to each other as “Guy Kelly” and “Kelly Girl.”
They will be married on October 11, 2009 and a television special featuring their wedding is in the works.
Congratulations to the two Kellys, our Cyber Love Story of the Week from your friends at CyberDatingExpert.com.

Cyber Love Story of the Week – Damona and Seth
July 27, 2009
By the time Damona met Seth, she thought she had online dating down to a science. She would search for new faces a couple times a week, see emails, respond to emails, IM, talk on phone, go to her neighborhood hangout, Lola’s for one drink and one drink only.
When Damona joined Nerve.com, she was 24-years-old, but considered herself wise beyond her years. She couldn’t possibly date a younger guy or even one her own age, so she searched men 25 years and older on the internet dating sites. Damona was having more success on Matchmaker.com than she did on Nerve. As a matter of fact, her Inbox on Nerve was fairly empty.
Then one day, she received a message from a man who called himself Mr. Pandemonium on Nerve. Damona took one look at his picture and said, “When can I meet you?” She threw all her well-learned rules out the window and didn’t even notice that Seth was also 24-years old.
She asked him to call her before the date so she could diligently check him out, but this time, she suggested he choose a place to meet. Seth suggested her favorite place…Lola’s. She laughed to herself, “Lola’s it is.”
Damona and Seth had two drinks that night and four years later, they were married. Congratulations to Damona and Seth, our Cyber Love Story of the Week from your friends at CyberDatingExpert.com

Cyber Love Story of the Week – Rose and Nathaniel
July 10, 2009
Rose had just ended a two year relationship as she realized she wanted to meet a man who wanted both marriage and children. Suddenly single, she took some time to think about her ideal mate. After three months, she posted an online dating profile on Match.com® Official Site.
Nate responded to Rose’s profile and was the first man she spoke to from the site. As a matter of fact, Nate was the first and only date she had from the list of men who wrote to her on Match.com.
After a year and a half, Nate planned a romantic proposal for Rose. The couple were in Jackson Hole Wyoming attending a friend’s wedding. While they were there, he told Rose to pack a bathing suit, evening wear, and come dressed in a ski outfit. They went on a ride on a snowmobile to the nearby hotsprings. The view was breathtaking. Rose was not expecting a proposal as they were at someone else’s wedding, but it turned out that Nate had personally designed a spectacular engagement ring without her knowledge.
The two will be married in June 2010 in Montana, and Rose says she truly did find her soulmate on Match.com® Official Site.
Rose is a certified nutrition consultant at www.WellnessWithRose.com and Nathaniel is in the advertising business. The two share their love for being healthy from the inside out.
Congratulations to Rose and Nathaniel, our Cyber Love Story of the Week couple from your friends at CyberDatingExpert.com.

Cyber Love Story of the Week – Rachael and Shaun
March 13, 2009
Rachael was in a five year relationship with a guy she knew wasn’t “the one.” She realized she needed to find her other half and decided to go on eharmony.com to find true love.
When Rachael first started communicating with Shaun online, they clicked right away. She appreciated that he considered his brother his best friend and found common interests with him as they both were into health, wellness, and the dramatic arts. Just hearing this made her smile before they even had the chance to meet.
The couple would talk on the phone for hours and finally had their first date at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Shaun met Rachael at the train station, and they both felt an instant chemistry for each other. Their first date lasted nine hours and they are still together after two years of dating and are very much in love.

Cyber Love Story of the Week – Maxine and Michael
February 13, 2009
Maxine and Michael are both veterans of the online (and offline) dating worlds. Neither one was looking for, much less expecting, a lifetime connection at this point in their lives. The couple met on Craigslist, and after two months of dating, they were living together. Just prior to the first anniversary of their first date, Michael surprised Maxine with a “wall of roses” and his grandmother’s family heirloom engagement ring. The happy couple plans to tie the knot in June of this year high atop the Las Vegas Strip. Congratulations to Maxine and Michael, our Cyber Love Story of the Week at CyberDatingExpert.com

Cyber Love Story of the Week – Mary and Rich
January 30, 2009
In the category of “Let’s be friends” sometimes it pays off to stay on good terms with your cyber-dates. And so the story goes with Mary and Rich who indirectly met on Yahoo! Personals.
Mary went on a first date with a man she met on Yahoo Personals in 2002. Her online date took her to a birthday party at the home of his best friend. After just three dates, the eager fellow asked her to move in with him. Knowing that it was too much too soon, she politely declined but decided to remain friends with her online date.
Five years later, the Yahoo! Personals buddy fixes Mary up with his best friend. I hope you are keeping up with me, because it was the same man who hosted the party she attended five years earlier. After only four short months the best friend proposed to Mary and she accepted. If there was a category for indirectly meeting online, then Mary and Rich would be high on the list. Then again, that is the void that was filled years later with GreatBoyfriends.com and GreatGirlfriends.com.
Congratulations to Mary and Rich for being the Cyber Love Story of the Week at CyberDatingExpert.com. Sometimes it pays to share the love.

Cyber Love Story of the Week – Deborah and Harvey
December 1, 2008
Deborah and Harvey met in February, 2001 right around Valentines Day on JDate®.com — the #1 Jewish social scene.
Deborah had been going on a lot of “first” dates and had been married twice already, so she was moving very slowly and carefully. In fact, they were “just friends” for about seven months. But Harvey knew she was “The One” and he was willing to be very patient.
The events of 9/11 brought them closer to each other and that’s when they became committed to dating exclusively. In January, 2005, they decided to move in together and bought a house.
In February, 2007, six happy years after they first met, Harvey proposed to Deborah while on a romantic ski trip to Aspen. Their marriage will take place in Hawaii, where this photo was taken.
Congratulations to Deborah and Harvey for being the Cyber Love Story of the Week at cyberdatingexpert.com.
