Grateful for His Second Chance

Posted by Leticia, 16 Mar

Kim certainly didn’t expect to meet someone special who lived overseas.  In fact, he thought he had configured his on-site settings to screen out international singles.  But somehow, “Angelsmile78” got through to him all the way from England.  “I wasn’t expecting much other than a neat conversation with an English gal,” he says.  “However, as I talked to her, I began realizing how small my world truly was.”

While Kim had never set foot off American soil, “Angelsmile78” was quite the traveller.  Her real name was Neapah and she was from Jamaica originally.  “Even though she was younger than me, she had seen and done so much,” Kim says.  He was a bit intimidated and didn’t realize until later that it came off as arrogance.

Many online introductions might have ended there.  But Kim persevered.  He really liked this girl and hoped she would give him a second chance.  “I kept opening myself up to her, even made a video for ‘us’ and finally got a response back,” Kim says, relieved.  “We figured out where I had gone wrong and put it behind us.”

Kim and Neapah began communicating frequently through a variety of means.  For his first trip outside the U.S., Kim booked a flight to London to visit Neapah on her birthday.  In the course of his week-long stay in the U.K., the couple fell deeply in love.

It was painful for Kim to leave but once he did, he used Skype to correspond with his sweetheart.  This helped them keep the torch lit over their long months apart.  After several months of what Kim calls an “E-engagement,” the couple were married in Gretna Green, Scotland.  “It was very much a storybook wedding that will always be filled with fond memories for re-telling,” Kim beams proudly.

Kim adds that our website was instrumental in the happiness he now shares with Neapah.  “It brought two very different people together from 4000 miles apart!”

All in a day’s work, Kim!  Congratulations.

    I only look good in photos if I am crying or am in Mona Lisa smile mode. This story, and the picture to back it up, allows a female like me to see Happiness in true form! To see that I don't have to be ashamed for asking a dating site for help. Thanks for the proof and the courage to not give up on love. May God bless

    Congratulations to the happy couple, you look well together! For those who think their love or wedding should not be, it is obvious they are still living in the bacra masa days (Slavery). Its 2012 move forward, get a life and if it hurts so much to see two people who are in love happy whether it be white or black, then that is the reason some of you are still on here for over a decade and still cannot find the person who connects with you. I take great offense to this criticism because I am Jamaican by birth. Those who are bashing this couple know nothing about them, maybe you all need to take a trip to Jamaica and see how diverse our Island is. Our motto is “OUT OF MANY WE ARE ONE”, which means we do not see color in individuals we see humans and though some might be lighter than others, we are all equals as humans and as Jamaicans. Have all you haters thought of giving off positive vibes to everyone you meet? Maybe if you do this you would not be on here the length of time you have, and still have not found anyone to date? This is a new world and people preferences in their mats are not based upon what their neighbor, family or friends views anymore, it’s based on who they are happy with. These couples along with many others have found love on this site, and are happy living their lives. So why don't we all just encourage each other, and if your own race is what you like, by all means date them, but do not criticize those who have different preference from you. Give constructive criticism you will be surprise how fast you will find a soul mate when you start to generate this kind of vibes. Start by saying “No Problem man”.

    Wow this is a touching story,you can see that these people are in love. The reason why some haters say the comments they say is because they have never been in love in their miserable lives however they will meet their bitter rivals too soon. l wish that couple the best and man you choose well she is perfect.

    For sure, with Kim and Neapah's story demonstrate that they came to the website determined! It further concludes, with love nothing is impossible - no barrier imagine Kim had never left USA soil but for the woman he loved, he had to go out and get her. Thanks Kim for having taken that step. With love, the sky is the only limit. May the God who made this happen keep your love stronger for ever and ever. God bless your marriage abundantly.

    Best wishes. They took their time, no whirlwind. They seem mature and well grounded their love is not based on lust they are going to be married for the long run. By the way, of all the interracial couples that I know, the bw/wm have been married the most. WM and BW have much in common, and the very qualities that some small minded BM call aggressive, WM call determined. The reason why WM aren't commenting much on this thread is they are busy emailing me, lol. Let me get back to you later. :)

      @bahianut, fill out your entire profile. Say more upbeat, positive stuff. Your photos are mixed, some look old some new but mainly they don't really look consistant. Take new photos, daub on a little more lipgloss. Read Evan Marc Katz and more dating sites. You are pretty, just have to be more positive, at fresh photos. speak of what you want, avoid the negative. Good luck.

    @denilson.. if you are so big on dating your own race why are you on an INTERRACIAL dating site? Why can't you just be happy instead of judging and being rude. To people you don't even know. She picked him over you because even though you think you look better in your opinion his attitude has to be better than yours, because yours sucks!! Why can't people just be happy for people anymore? Why do you have to be such a hater. It amazes me how many ignorant people are on this site. Once again if you do not accept interracial dating why the hell are you on this site?? UGHHH negative people piss me off..

    How can a white guy like that get her ? Someone is having a laugh ....right ? Please tell me. How can a black woman be attracted to him ? I'm not having it. Your trying to tell me she is more attracted to him than all the brothers she most likely grew up with ? It just goes to show any white man get a hot black woman. But brothers....go to a white club or bar and try and get one of their babes and let's see how far you get Go to an Asian festival or Latino Festival and try and get one of their babes and let's see how far you get. IF YOU ARE REGULAR BLACK GUY. YOU WILL HAVE NO CHANCE. Yet any punk arse white boy, can land himself, the prime of our race. This is a joke !!!

      @Deilson 2000 I saw your profile you're another bitter black babydaddy, bitter as heck. go take care of your kid or better yet marry a white women as you are obcessed with them! Your bitterness is very clear and obvious. Imma tell you straight: you are afraid of completing with white men for women. Too bad. Step up your game, go back to school but dude all on this board you are tell the world how insecure you are.

    What gets me is that there's only 2 white people that responded to this,and seeing all the black people on here and saying congrats is making me think.Are there that many black people that don't like dating their own?It's amazing how we as a race as so quick to accept and wanna be with others that are not our own race.it tells me how seperate we are as a people.

      I am a wm senior citizen that will answer your question.. You don't rant about the 12% of the brothers who are marrying white women because you feel you are getting even with the white man. Then you get upset when the white man finds black women attractive and date and marry them you play the race card on the black woman. To all bw out there date whomever you want that will make you happy. Either date out or die out.

Your negativity and possible hatred will inventually swallow you up and destroy you. Shame on you. Blessings to this couple. I'm happy for anyone who finds the special one in their lives.

Coaching Testimonial

"The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience"

Submitted by: Karen, USA, 34

My Dating Coach really took the time to go through my profile thoroughly. First she viewed my pictures and gave me great feedback.

She read through the written portion of my profile, line by line, and gave direct feedback on how to add my personality to it.

My amazing consultant, even asked how my contacts where going and offered a few suggestions to increase my interactions with new men.

I took her advice and made the suggested adjustments.

I have received more contact from men, more views, and have started communicating with more people which was the whole point of joining the site in the first place.

The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience. Thanks!
