Where to start...
Well, I was surfing the net one day and decided to search for something using WebCrawler (www.webcrawler.com). While the search was happening,I noticed that WebCrawler had a Personals2000 page, so I decided to check it out.
As I scrolled through the various "Women seeking Men" site, I found this short ad from a young woman by the name of Natalie. She apparently lived in Launceston in Tasmania (Australia).
Her ad was brief, but for some reason it stood out... I don't know what it was... thinking back, I think just the bubbly and cheerful nature of the ad itself was refreshing and that's what attracted me... here is the original response to my ad and then the response Natalie wrote back to me :)

Dear Arek,
Hey, how are you? Thanx a heap for writing to ME!! :)
Ummm, so tell me more about your fine self. Where do u live?
I just got home from work........YUCKY!! I work at Macca's on the weekend, and study during the week. Oh by the way I am 17, not 18.......sorry I had to lie in my add cause they wouldn't let me put it on if I said I was only 17. Sorry 'bout that!
I'm just singing along to a song at the moment......wanna join me!! Ah, u have a very nice voice!! Forget it, that's just silly!!
Hmmmm, well I don't really know what to write cause I don't know u very well at the moment (but I'm sure we can change that hey?!). Is there anything else that u would like to know about me? Or anything else that u want to tell me?
Well I might go now, if u don't mind?!
See ya!! Love Nat! :)

So based on Natalie's enthusiastic reply, I instantly become attracted to her personality - here was a woman that was outgoing, happy, loving I just felt really attracted to those qualities. From that day on, non-stop for 4 months now, we've sent each other anywhere between 2 - 8 mails daily :) and we call each other about once a week (roughly).
About 2 months later, Natalie had managed to obtain a JPG version of one of her photos... when I saw her I just thought WOW! - Personally and visually, this was THE best girl in the world.
The first time I called Natalie I was REALLY nervous and it was kinda traumatic, but it took NO time for me to get sooooo comfortable with her... sure we haven't met in real life, but I just feel like she is my second half.
We can't wait until we meet each other... we have plans for Natalie to come and visit me later this year. :)
