I had been on POF for a short time and was using the "meet me" feature. Some people think it is shallow to use just a picture to judge someone but also we know that a picture is worth a thousand words...or more. I came across Lora's picture and was instantly stricken by her eyes. I could tell she was kind and gentle freespirited and fun. I sent her an e-mail and we became instant friends. This is what I was looking for, a friend and potential life partner. She was more than I could have ever asked for. She is beautiful, passionate and creative. Lover of arts, life and all that is good. We talked three days on the phone about everything in the world. We were both very frank with one another when it came to what we wanted from life, they were the same so we instantly bonded. We are both artistic right brainers so our life is always full of surprises. Long story short, we have been together for 6 months now and growing closer everyday. We plan to marry when the time is right and suits us both. I am sure it will be on a whim! That is just how we roll! We love each other very much and are very happy. Thank you POF for bringing us together!! Jerry and Lora
