Dear LDSSO,
Perhaps there was no bigger skeptic in using your service than me, a
seasoned journalist. I tried your service in late May and June, for a 30
day timeframe and met some interesting people but none that I wanted to
pursue for marriage. At the end of the subscription I felt prompted to
give it one more month. For an additional $8, I signed on again.
With three days to go on the subscription I determined that it really
was time to marry my career and win that Pulitzer. That's when I met the
most incredible woman and we have been writing, talking and visiting
ever since.
Stange thing about the entire relationship is that we grew up 15 miles
apart and it took some 28 years and the Internet to meet and get to know
each other. We now live about 2,000 miles apart but that will come to an
end sometime next year. I gave this wonderful woman a diamond last week
in the Dallas Temple.
For anyone, like me, who thinks the Internet is a crazy way to meet
someone, take a good hard look at the way you're living your life now.
I'm one skeptic that has been converted and believes the Lord will use
any means possible to further His work, which includes the new and
everlasting covenant of marriage.
Thanks for your service.
