Happy Trails!

Amanda Watts' love story

Dan and I have been dating for a year and a half. We got engaged in January and will marry next June. I couldn't be happier. He is my absolute soul mate. My parents have been married for 32 years and I look at our relationship and they are mirrored images of each other. I couldn't have asked for a better person. He makes me laugh all the time. He brings me flowers if I have had a tough day. He lets me vent and cry, whatever. He is my rock.

Our families love each other. We just went on a cruise with my parents and we shared a room. We weren't ready to come home! His Mom and I get together at Christmas and bake cookies. We go shopping and get together a couple of times a week. All of us get along. We really lucked out.

I met Dan two weeks after I joined! I got fast results. Dan had been in the program longer and he was giving it one more shot with me. He won the lottery! I went there looking for the person to spend the rest of my life with and I got what I wanted.

I joined because I wasn't meeting people through traditional means. I am just 27, but I was sick of being alone. I tried some online dating sites and was not thrilled with them. I was impressed with The Right One because they have been around for 25 years. They have a great success rate for marriage and low divorce rate. I felt I had nothing to lose and everything to gain.

I believe in fate. We had gone to the same grocery store and the same fireworks display every year, but never met. We were supposed to meet, The Right One stepped up fate.

After six months, I moved in. Today, we love biking every Sunday morning. We go 15 to 17 miles and are working up to 22. We ride the trail to Boston and back. We make time for it. Our life is just wonderful. We are absolutely in love.
