We have a CS Engagement between KatieCharlyn and Iceman69.
We suggested to Katie that they share their success story with all of us because it's such a great story, but she's a little shy and has asked me to post her story for her. So here it is, in her own words to me....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We met on January 26th 2008 here at cs. we were friends first,met in the chat lounge. I sent him a message that he had beautiful blue eyes(he does!! ) then we started chatting on msn. then one nite we were chatting he says he has a british accent and I love that!! I say, I wanna hear how you talk he says whats your number? Then he types... answer the phone silly!! I answered and we talked 28min!!! from ICELAND. Then it went to text by phone and we started making plans for him to come visit. We started planning it late february. He came May 9th. May the 10th we were crazy about each other. But...we felt smothered at first and didnt know? Then, all the sudden he became a part of my life, like my kids...my parents and all about me and my well being, if you understand that. Not about just me but I was falling in love. Then I hurt my back 3 weeks ago, and he did everything for me and was just amazing and I just stopped and said...this man loves me for me!!! I found someone who accepts me for me dana!!! I'm not easy to live with!
Then we started planning a future together. He got an e-mail from a captain he worked for one time to come home to work a shrimp boat. Good money for 5 weeks. I asked.. are you coming back? he says "Oh yes! I love you!!! I said "I love you and dont want to be without you!!! So, he makes his plan to go back to Iceland, all the while I'm scared he's not coming back for some reason? Anyway, he cooks (hes a chef,commercial diver,and commercial fisherman) a dinner last friday nite. It was out of this world and we had red wine too. We ate and then he says... here--holding a box, open this, and it was empty!!! Then he got down on one knee, and he pulls out a ring and says, "one thing baby, will you be my wife?? I said----YES..I WILL!! AND CRIED AND HE PUT THE RING It was so romantic! The lights were low and the setting was just beautiful!!! We are truly in love and how it happened is just amazing!!!
I TOOK HIM TO THE AIRPORT SATURDAY MORNING AND WE BOTH CRIED!! He will be back August 15th. He has to go out of the country anyway to start the process! He called me today and says how is the woman I love doing. He has called me 3 times since he's been gone. We picked out a house and everything!!
He's my heart dana and I know he loves me!! CS is awesome!! It works!!! I got butterflies now just typing it!!
