I did a match search and began to send out feelers to guys who met my criteria. Three feelers later to the same guy, and he finally responded and that was it. Long detailed emails, then phone calls, prayers all along the way, then skype video conferences, then spending a week together meeting each other's families. We are grateful to my married son who pestered me to try LDSsingles. We are so well matched and the compatibility comparison really helped us get started as well as the initial profile information. We asked each other very important questions immediately in order to cut through fluff and make sure both of us were serious about marriage in the temple, a mission together, AND buying a cabin in Alaska. It's all good, thanks to the Lord and LDSSingles.com
