Andrew and I met online on October 21, 2001. I was a mod in a chat room and part of my job was to check profiles for 'underagers'. His profile claimed his favorite movie was Weird Science. I sent him a private chat message asking about it; we spent the next five hours just chatting. I knew, unequivocally knew, that I'd marry him. I didn't even know what he looked like!! We talked on the phone for the first time three weeks later--our first conversation only ended because his cell phone battery died. Three weeks after that, I flew down to Texas to meet him. I spent two amazing weeks with him, then flew home to pack. I moved in on December 27, we married on March 22, 2002.

Full disclosure--we moved our wedding up by a year(ish) so I could have health insurance. I have a medical condition that flared, and while he was willing to pay the self-pay bills, we both knew it would be less expensive to marry and add me to his insurance.

Oh yeah--I proposed to him.
