Cyber Love Story of the Week – Haleh and Itai
December 11, 2009
Cyber Love Story of the Week
Haleh originally joined JDate because she wanted to try and meet a nice Jewish guy. While she was not a super-religious, she knew that Judaism was important to her. She knew that one day when she wanted to have children, she wanted to share the culture with a family. In 2006, Haleh was dating, but not meeting Jewish men. She thought if she signed up for the online dating site, JDate, she might meet a Jewish guy.
Haleh was on JDate for only a few months, when she contacted someone with the screen name “NJGuy” in a simple flirt that said, “There is an opening in the sweetheart department, please send resume.” What she didn’t know then, was that Itai was a day or two away from ending his subscription after months of trying to connect with someone. Timing is everything because he immediately responded to her flirt.
Haleh had no idea that she would meet the man that she would spend her life with.
In early December 2008, Itai asked Haleh to be his wife and she said “YES!” The two were married in October, 2009.
Congratulations to Haleh and Itai, our Cyber Love Story of the Week. Sometimes it pays off to pay attention to those casual flirts.

Cyber Love Story of the Week – Gail and Daniel
November 27, 2009
Cyber Love Story of the Week
Gail joined the online dating site Match.com in July of 2005. She wan’t really looking for someone and had not been cyberdating for a while. Daniel contacted Gail, and at first glance she wasn’t interested in him. When she realized that they had some mutual friends in common, including the local minister, she decided to check into it further.
When she was told that Daniel was a great guy by her Minister, she agreed to meet him for coffee. That first date lasted for hours and so she says, the rest is history. They both knew after a few months of dating that they would get married someday. Everything just clicked for the two of them.
After 9 months of dating, Gail and Daniel got engaged. Two years after they met, the were married in a small ceremony by the same Minister that gave Brad the vote of approval in the back yard of their new home. It was second marriage for both of them and they both truly believe they were lucky to find someone who shared their same values.

Cyber Wedding Album – Margarita and Avi
November 16, 2009
Avi and Margarita – San Diego, CA
Met in April 2007
Engaged in November, 2008
Married in April 2009
Met on JDate®.com
After 14 years of nagging by his mother, Avi decided to make every attempt and truly try to date someone Jewish. His friends told him to try JDate.com. One day he noticed an adorable blonde holding two small dogs in her hands. The woman was Margarita and Avi hoped that she would reply to his introductory email.
Their first date consisted of dog walking for two hours at 2 am, all the while having a wonderful conversation. Avi was so excited that after their first date, he couldn’t wait to see her again.
The two became inseparable! He never imagined that there was anyone out there that would truly be his partner and understand the real him.
On November 14, 2008, after nervously pacing around the house before a dinner that they were hosting, Avi asked Margarita to give him a few minutes of her time. He held her hand and said how in-love with her he was and how happy she made him feel. Then, he dropped down on one knee, took a little box out of his pocket and asked, “Would you make me the happiest man in the world and spend the rest of your life with me?” After exclaiming 29 times “Oh my God!” and “Is this for real?” she finally said “YES!!!!!!!”
The two were married on April 5, 2009.
Congratulations to Margarita and Avi who prove that real love is only a mouse-click away.

Cyber Love Story of the Week – Lynne and Dave
November 13, 2009
After a very odd experience with cyber dating involving a daytime talk show, Dave was referred to Match.com by one of the show’s producers. Several months later, Lynne responded to his online dating profile headline which simply read “I Like Cake.”
On their first meeting at the Formosa Cafe in Hollywood, they found they shared a lot of core interests: theater, Scrabble and a passion for baseball. But alas, Lynne had met another guy on Match and Dave was given the dreaded “friends” speech.
Feeling a connection, Dave played the “friend” card as well as he could. He arranged post-season baseball group get-togethers and stayed in phone contact with Lynne on a regular basis. Dave soon won over her sister and enlisted her as a conspirator.
Dave’s strategy worked. Soon the other Match guy was out of the picture. This led to years of Scrabble tournaments, trips to Texas and Tahoe, and attending over 40 Dodger games together.
Dave proposed at the Neil Diamond concert at the Hollywood Bowl three years later on the anniversary of their first date. They were married on Oct 3, 2009 in Los Angeles.
To celebrate, they invited the all guests to the Formosa Cafe the night before. The Dodgers clinched the National League West title on their wedding day.
Congratulations to Lynne and Dave who prove that by being “just friends” might result in finding “just the one.”

Peril of the Week – Witchy Woman
November 6, 2009
And now, for a little post-Halloween humor. A gentleman took the risk and went out with a woman whose online dating profile name included the word “witch.” Out of curiosity he contacted her and they set up their first date as she had an attractive profile photo. Now, we know that men are visual and the right photo will sell them in a heartbeat.
In this case, there was some truth in advertising. On their cyberdate, she described her amazing in-home lab which was complete with ancient glass filled with bubbly brew. She told her date about how she concocted home-made creations. She claimed her witches brew were in fact homeopathic medicines. The gentleman on the date had a spooky feeling during their conversation, and had a hunch there was more witchcraft to the story than met the eye.

Cyber Love Story of the Week – Paula and Jeff
October 30, 2009
Jeff had just returned home from college and had successfully lost almost 100 pounds when he put his online dating profile up on JDate®.com. Coincidentally, Paula went to the same school as Jeff and they were both Dodger fans. There wasn’t an instant connection, but over a period of time the two became close.
Then, on Christmas morning 2008, Jeff wrapped an engagement ring in a big box and put it under his aunt’s Christmas tree. It was Paula’s first time celebrating Christmas, and when she unwrapped the gift, she thought she found an empty box. In a romantic gesture, Jeff got down on one knee and asked Paula to marry him. She of course said yes and the two just sat and hugged each other that morning.
On May 30, 2010, Paula and Jeff will exchange marriage vows before all of their family and friends.
Congratulations to our Paula and Jeff who met on JDate®.com from your friends at CyberDatingExpert.com.
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 – Karina and Michael
October 2, 2009
Karina was living in Rio de Janeiro and was a member of an instant messenger service called Odigo.
Michael was living in Los Angeles and started to communicate with Karina in 2002. Via chat, she shared a story with Michael about a little girl she saw sitting on a sidewalk on the dirty streets. Karina bought her a sandwich and a soda, and wondered how many more starving children could use her help.
That was the beginning of their new friendship. Within months, the two became best-friends. Michael moved to Brazil to be with Karina and the following year they were married in Las Vegas.
In true Internet dating style, their friends and family around the world watched them get married at a chapel that had a webcam service. Together they developed a mobile social platform with Check-Mates, designed to help empower children.

Cyber Wedding Album – Nancy and Ron
September 14, 2009
Nancy and Ron – Hartford, CT
Met in June, 2003
Engaged in August, 2003
Married on New Year’s Eve, 2003
Met on Match.com® Official Site
Here’s a very romantic online dating story that I have to share. Nancy and Ron met on Match.com. Nancy was a single mother of two, and Ron had two children of his own.
After an enjoyable first date, Ron asked Nancy what her favorite flowers and flavors were. He arrived on their second date with a bouquet of flowers that included every flower she mentioned during their phone call. He also stopped at Godiva Chocolatier and selected one chocolate for each of her favorite flavors, along with a bottle of champagne.
By the end of their second date, the two knew without a doubt that they would get married someday.
Ron proposed to Nancy while on a beach walk with her and her two daughters. He asked Nancy’s children first if he could have permission to marry their mother. According to Nancy, she felt that Ron knew the fabric of her life like a quilt. They have been happily married for six years.
