Ain't love grand? We love to celebrate the success of our members! Post your great date story, engagement announcement or anniversary on this page. We define "success" as anyone who benefits from our site in aspects of marriage, faith, friends, and romance.
At www.blackbbwdate.com, we're excited for all our success couples. So don't be shy.
We both wish to thank you so much for bringing us together. We met on LargeFriends and the chemistry was there from the very first. We both agree that, although both of us have been in relationships before, we have never been so compatible with another person as we are with each other. We spend every free moment we have together and we are combining our households this summer. We are actively planning a wedding for the summer after that.
On a whim after my split from my husband, I decided to sign up for largefriends. I did one search, and the first person that popped up was Jake. I read his profile, and it was like magic. Everything he loved or was interested in clicked with me. I sent him an email and the rest was history. After about a month of emailing, I decided to finally take the next step to meet him - I walked into his tattoo shop with a design in hand. Love at first sight...I never believed in that, except in fairy tales or movies, but this was the real thing. A bolt of lightning, a smack in the face...however you want to describe it, it happened to me. We are now living together in complete bliss and plan on getting married by the fall. He's everything I wanted and needed. I love him with everything I have. We fit perfectly. It just goes to show that taking chances and filling out that profile can make fantastic things happen.
I found that special someone very quickly! Thanks!
I created a profile on Largefriends in early 2005 and signed up for a gold membership in March. I used the service whereby a small greeting would be sent to all women in a 50 mile radius meeting my criteria. I was surprised when I got replies from all over the country (and none from my state). I started a couple of conversations with some nice people and discovered I had gone to school with an ex-husband. I also started chatting with a woman who had not made any choices in her profile, had no photo and her only description was "just an ordinary woman". Well, THAT was false adversising. I quickly discovered she and I were very compatible and we've been in touch every day since. I travelled 900km to meet her and we've been in love and lust ever since. Thank goodness for the internet and cheap airfares.
I expect marriage may well follow if we can actually arrange to live in the same city.
David and I met here on Largefriends at the first of May and we fell in love with each other immediately. When you meet "The One", you just know it. We were married Oct. 7th and are enjoying our lives together! I have finally found what I have searched for all my life.... true happiness! and David's unconditional love is the source of that happiness! Just know that you can find your soulmate online. I had to kiss a lot of toads... but I finally found my Prince! Thanks Largefriends.

I had never been on an internet dating site and it was only by chance that me and one of my friends were messing around on the computer on night that I ended up putting yself on your sight.
It was fun to received winks and messages, but as I have heard many things about people on the internet, I was not planning on agreeing to meet any of them.
Then one day I received a nice email. I was feeling a little fed up at the time and I dont know what made me do it but I replied to the email.
After communicating back and fourth with a few emails, he asked me to add him to my msn, so we could talk more online. I thought about it for a little while, then thought whats the worst that could happen talking on msn, I still dont have to meet him.
So over the next year, we chated off and on, he always suggested we meet, but I still kept him at arms length. In fact he was very patient and was suprised he never gave up.

Then one day whilst chating online, he asked again when are we going to meet, I think I just ran out of excuses of why I could not, so found myself typing Monday as I am off work due to it being a bank holiday.
He agreed to meet me at my local station and I still thought I would never go through with it.
Monday came and I to this day dont know why I did it, but I found myself in my car driving towards the station, thinking what am I doing, I must be mad.
I pulled up outside the station and there was this very good looking man standing there and I thought that cant be him, he is too good looking he wont like me.
He must have recognised me from my picture, because he came straight over to me said hi and got in my car.
We went to my flat and talked for a while and I was still thinking this is too good to be true, he is being polite and when he goes home I will never see him again.
I was wrong, he was always so sweet to me and as he worked near where I lived he would come and meet me from work, I saw him every day and could not get enough of him.
I now believe in love at first sight, I adore him and love him with all my heat. We now live together a year and a half on and are planning on starting a family. My family all love him and I am in fact writing this from his brothers computer in Spain as he has bought me here on holiday.
I consider myself a very lucky lady to have found my perfect Mr Right. He is amazing.
Thank you for making my life and I hope others are as lucky as me.
We met here November 2007 and when we met face to face 4 days later, we knew that we would spend the rest of our lives together. We were married this past November 18th on the two year anniversary of when we first met. :-)
It really works... open your heart and believe!!!

I sent Patrick a wink, wow, it must have been at least a year before he got back to me, but this site is great at keeping old information and contact stuff for you! We talked on the phone a few times and agreed to meet and have lunch. Lunch turned into dinner, which turned into sitting in a park, watching the stars and talking until 4 a.m.! My roommates were so worried, but i knew then that he was something worth "staying up for". Fast forward 7 months and we're in town visiting my parents for christmas. He spends a lot of alone time with my dad during this vacation. We're out for dinner at a favorite Italian resturant with 2 of our close friends. He gets up to go to the bathroom, saying his "tummy is a little upset". I continue to munch on some brushetta, when i see him come back from the corner of my eye. He's smiling really big, which always makes me smile back of course, so i'm all grin when he passes his seat and comes to my left side, looks me in the eye and gets down on ... Read Full Story

He's smiling really big, which always makes me smile back of course, so i'm all grin when he passes his seat and comes to my left side, looks me in the eye and gets down on one knee. I immediately start crying and squealing. He asked me to be his wife and of course I said yes! Not 2 mintues after the engagement, did a nice older gentlemen come to us and let us know he's a pastor and we can do this right here and now! ahhhh!! I told him my mother would have my hyde! The night was magical. Everyone in my party in on it, BUT ME. I hugged him and kissed him and told him how much he mean't to me, but it was muffled by the applause and cheering of the restuarant crowd. We'll be saying I DO in October of 2009. Patrick and I would NEVER have met without this site. He was in Georgia and I was in Kansas. Thank you largefriends, you have made the difference in the rest of our lives. :)
