Wow. I never knew....

Having been involved in the relationships I've been in, I really thought I had a grasp on what was important to me and how I'd be content to live alone, date some, and fish alot.

And then?

And then the most wonderful thing happened while cuttin up on the KNS.

Everyone wants to think they have a sense of humor and when others 'get it' you feel validated.
I'd posted some funnies before and didn't get much of a response and then one evening, I got a reply from a person who thought it was funny..
I was pleased with myself as I was that someone had noticed it and enjoyed it.
Little did I know....

Being a somewhat 'regular' on KNS, I started noticing the funny stuff the other person was posting and -even though I thought it was a guy- thought them to be VERY cool, quick witted and Smart.

Then, one day, that person ID'd themselves as a female.
I thought,"Hummm...thats better. I'm not laughing and wondering about a guy!"-btw, I'm 100% Hetro.

One evening, she and I had exchanged some funny thoughts in a 'thread' and the mistakes a reporter had made and she said "... please don't go!" after I'd said I was logging out.

I wound up sticking around for a while longer...enchanted with her thoughts and quips. I said that I hoped she was a girl and she assured me she was-I had seen her post saying that before but didn't wanna seem too 'stalkerish'.

I don't know how many of the people who post there know it but you can get in contact with someone by clicking there ID and next thing I knew, we had made contact and she's even reviewed my past post and sent me a comment or two about a few she particularly liked.
What I've never told her is that I'd done the same to her ID and saw much she'd shared- and enjoyed it all.

I wasn't looking.
Neither was she.
And it started happening.
I still can't believe it.

I've never seen the KNS as a dating site, a place to pick up cyber women or anything like that. Truth be known, I didn't even know you had the ability to 'search' or 'contact' before her..

It took about a month and a half for us to get together but we were in contact daily.

I'd thought it might be fun to have lunch one day and she agreed. Of course, then things started being a bit hectic for me and although we hadn't really set a date, I think it was understood and anticipated to be 'soon'.

Now, mind you, she'd already been occupying my thoughts-very much so...-(Mmmmm!) but I had let it go on too long and one evening I got a message that begain something like this: "..no pressure, when you get a chance, no worries..".

"What have I done?", I thought, stricken with panic!
I contacted her and assured her I was interested-very much so- and we made a date.

I'll tell ya more in another post but allow me to say this:

-Neither of us were looking and KNS isn't a meeting place like a dating site or anything-as you must know..

-How we got together was simply from the admiration of her ideas and thoughts and our shared demented sense of humor.

-Whats happened after the first 'contact' has turned into the greatest thing thats ever happened to me.
I never knew what love really was.
I never knew how down right Silly or giddy with glee I could get at this 'grown up' stage in my existence.
I never imagined I could fall for anyone again and have been 'on guard' against it for 2.5 years.

-I'm helpless in her Love. Not that I even try to fight it anymore- I resisted at first but have been carried away with everything about her.
She is the perfect person for me and I'll be sharing why soon enough.

Why am I doing this? For all to see, know and understand?
I'm so happy with meeting her, I wanna tell everyone!
Also, I want some to understand that there is hope for Love and it might bite you in the least likely of places. When you find it, as I have, it brightens your world and enhances everything in your being.
