The year was 2007, I was married with a young infant – I joined wis.dm, a site like this one, and found this one user pretty funny – we talked on gchat July 13th, 2007 (a day before my son turned 1) and my life went upside down. A week later, we spoke to each other on the phone, then on webcam, then I dropped everything and flew to see him for a couple of days in N. Carolina. After that trip, we both went home to our spouses and told them it was over. I was scared, I didn’t know what life held in store for me, it was a whirlwind as I was also starting another relationship with a different wis.dm user at the time. My parents were not happy, neither were his. They both moved here to NYC to be with me, we lived in our own world, it was great. Eventually I got pregnant, miscarried, broke up with my second partner. Somewhere along the line, I got pregnant, again, lived in South Africa, graduated from grad school and got married to the person you now know as JeanPaulSartre here on Fluther…this happened in Nov. 2008 and I’d say that that year and a bit have been the craziest ever but it all worked out even though no one thought it should or would. Our family is the best and we’re thankful every day.
