<p style="margin-bottom:0in;">I hardly know where to begin... It has only been a short time since I came to FE, but I think it has been time well spent. At first there were several women who caught my eye, and apparently I caught the eye of several others. Gradually, though, that interest focused more and more on one friendship. I've read everything about being patient in relationships, but this re<span style="background:transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%;">markable young w</span>oman has truly captured my heart. I spent months with the last couple of women that I dated without ever having the level of feelings that I am experiencing right now. </p>

<p style="margin-bottom:0in;">Sometime this spring I will be flying to Manila to meet my love and “make it official.” Shortly after I come home we will be getting things started for a fiancee visa. I wish I could be more specific with the time-frame, but unfortunately I have to wait for the powers-that-be at my job to approve my vacation request. The engagement ring is already ordered and the wedding rings are picked out. She is planning a party when I get there. We talk via computer nearly every day, and have talked several times over the phone. We are hoping to be married in October of 2010, but knowing the US government, that may get delayed. Our fingers are crossed though.</p>

<p style="margin-bottom:0in;">I want to wish everyone here luck for the new year, especially the women who took the time to communicate with me.</p>
