Don’t Put an Age Limit on Love

A year after she signed up, Danielle (“Starry1”) encountered Sean (“LdnWhiteguy”) in our chat room. He had been with us about four months at that point. Starry1 posted that she was hungry and LdnWhiteguy offered to buy her dinner. “I thought he was funny, and I was keen to find out more,” recollects Danielle.

Danielle had been dating online for some time. “Your site was not my first try,” she says. Her goal was “to find someone who was committed to a relationship, rather than just experimenting.” Was she confident? “Not very!” she laughs.

“This was my first dating site,” Sean reveals. “I joined to find a black woman who would definitely be open to the idea of dating interracially.” We asked him if he felt confident about his prospects. “Reasonably so,” Sean replies. “But I was unsure of the whole process.”

After their chat room chemistry test came back positive, Sean checked out Danielle’s profile. “I thought she was cute, and interesting,” he explains. They continued their conversation privately and soon decided it was a good idea to go out. “We had chatted a lot, both in the chat room and on the phone,” says Sean. Danielle was ready. “It felt like the right time,” she tells us.

When they exchanged pleasantries in person, Danielle remembers thinking “He really is 6 feet tall!” Sean was entranced by her “lovely smile, beautiful eyes, kissable lips.” They were both surprised by the length of their first date. “Yep, it lasted for 3 days....” Sean says with a wink and a smile.

After that, they were “certain” this wasn’t the end of the road. In fact, it could be argued that the first date never ended. “We’ve pretty much been together ever since!” laughs Sean.

We asked if there was anything Sean appreciates about Danielle that wasn’t apparent in her profile. “Lots of things,” he says. “We have really grown together over the years.” Danielle observes that “the profile is a guide, but you only really get to know people over time!” Still, Sean definitely suits her and she sensed that from the start. “He is exactly my type,” notes Danielle. She’s younger than Sean expected his life partner to be, but he’s not complaining.

Given the strength of their feelings and the whirlwind nature of their courtship, it wasn’t long before the pair started thinking seriously. Sean arranged an idyllic locale for the big moment. He proposed “in a restaurant at the top of a cedar-covered mountain, as the sun set over the Greek Islands in the Aegean Sea, on bended knee, with a local silver ring.”

Has this union changed Danielle’s life? “Makes it happier, and we have a baby, so a lot!” she replies. Asked the same thing, Sean says “Completely. It has brought me happiness and joy.”

With thousands of singles still looking for their sweetie, Sean and Danielle want to give back with some encouraging words. “Be honest in your profile, be open minded and take a chance,” Danielle advises. She wants you to remember that “if we had just followed the age limits on our profiles, we wouldn’t have even met!”

Sean wholeheartedly agrees. “Don’t be too restrictive in your limits,” he says. “Chat on the phone first but try to meet face to face as soon as you can, so you can see if there could be a chance. Be sincere. Don’t waste people’s time or toy with their affections.”

Sean and Danielle sure didn’t waste time. And now they have years of togetherness to look forward to.
