Success Story: Phyllis and Grapjas

Posted by Leticia, 25 Aug

Just to prove that the internet really does make the world a small place, here's another success story of two people who actually knew each other and finally managed to get together when they found each other again on our site. So don't EVER let distance stop you from finding true happiness...just like grapjas and evoyne.

Here's what Phyllis had to say...

Find your soulmate on InterracialDatingCentral

This wonderful site allowed me to get in contact with someone I lost touch with over the years. One night, I was online checking messages & seeing who was online. My breathing was stopped for a mere second because I saw Cor's (grapjas) picture online. I immediately sent him a message & he responded the next day.

After talking on the phone & catching up, we realized we had to see each other. Two weeks later, Cor flew to the US to see me. I was so nervous as I waited for him to arrive at the airport. When our eyes met, we passionately kissed in the airport as if we were the only people there. We both knew that our love was true & we were not going to let it go again.

Cor, who is my fiance now, lives in Amsterdam. I live in Houston, TX. The distance was irrelevant to us because when you are in love nothing can get in your way of happiness. I have been to The Netherlands twice now, even though I have a fear of flying. And he has been to Houston 4 times. With our wonderful video phones, we talk to & see each other daily without incurring a large phone bill. Our wedding will be next year.

So I want to thank the Interracial Dating site for bringing me back to my one & only true love.

    I would like to thank everyone for their support & wonderful comments. Cor is the love of my life. We spent the entire summer(2006) together in Europe & Houston. Right now, we have been finalizing many plans for our Oct 2007 wedding. Love is wonderful. True love is wonderful & everlasting!!Anyone anywhere can have a loving relationship if they truly believe that they will. It is all about believing that you can & you will have it. Once again, from Cor & myself, thank you all for the beautiful & thoughtful comments. We will not forget to send photographs of our wedding. Sincerely, Evoyne & Cor

    Wow...now that is something! Living in WV, I often consider myself isolated from the rest of the US. It is difficult to get people from surrounding states to come here for a visit. However, when it is right, I see that people will do whatever it takes to be together.
