I was a student when I met Wale. I registered on the site not to meet someone, I just wanted to improve my English. I was getting a degree in translation and the best way to improve the language is to communicate to native speakers. I tried different free services but the boys were too vulgar there and I didn't like that. It was more than 10 years ago.

Once Wale wrote to me and we started talking. I was surprised that he is in Ukraine but he lived in another city. We were talking for a few months before we decided to meet. One day I just wanted to run somewhere so took a ticket to Kharkiv and went to visit him. It was the craziest thing I did in my life. The next day I was there already, he met me at the railway station. Both of us were so shy that we hardly looked at each other. But a few hours later I felt as if I know him for many years. I was shocked because usually, it takes a while for me to trust someone.

Of course, after that our relationship developed and we met many times. It was not easy sometimes since we are from different worlds and we faced many obstacles but the feelings we have were strong enough to overcome everything. Now we have a happy family with two cute kids)))

Also, this my experience helped me to understand that I want to work as a matchmaker and translator and I work in this sphere near 10 years already.
