His Story:
From the moment giftedms and donken started talking, it was an instant attraction. We had so many things in common. We both knew what we were looking for, we both met and went out with people on BSC previously. However on the fateful day, she instant messaged me as I was leaving my office and we decided to continue later that evening and haven't stopped talking since. Since she lived in another state, I was a little reluctant, but decided to continue and eventually meet her. Well the story goes fairytale from there. We met for a few hours and that continued and then we decided to give each other a try and see what happens. Well, we started spending weekends together and then we talked and came to the conclusion that we wanted to be with each other...so the story goes. I relocated and we moved in together and we are talking about marriage within a year. I have met someone who I can take the long walk with. Someone who has come into my life and who has my back and I have hers. I would lay my soul on the line for my beautiful QUEEN. We are going to survive all things that may come. Thanks Black singles! Without you, we would never have met.

Her Story:
My username is Giftedms and after being on your site too long, I remained patient and optimistic. Even when the matches were comical at best, it was a process. In September 2007, I sent an instant message to Donken (screen name) and he answered. We chatted briefly, but it was moving too slow and he had to log off. Well Tasha, this is where patience and the belief in God's abundant promises come in. That night when I was not going to honor my word to call, I did... and that night we spoke and we met the next month. Fast forward and at the risk of sounding cliches', I will just quote India Arie "Cause he is the truth said he is so real and I love the way that he makes me feel and if I am a reflection of him then I must be fly because his light it shines so bright I wouldn't lie".

Well as we continue to learn and explore and take this long walk together, we now live together, are engaged, and are actively planning our June 2009 wedding. Now, my king is patient, kind, loving, and god-fearing, not because I want him to know God, but he has his own relationship with god, his family, and his friends.

Well to sum it up...In another life, I must have been his husband and he my wife. Now if that is too deep for most of you...well, keep on living, just keep on living. Thank you BSC!
