The justified ultimatum

Kailla was heartbroken when she was 22 and she was 22. The breakup left her with a desire to get to know new people because there is no better cure for a broken heart than a new, exciting person coming into life. Kaila signed up for the app, the messages started flowing but one message attracted her attention especially. Why? Because when it comes to a half-American and half-English girl, and a guy sends her a message in English, that means he read her profile and see who's in front of him - Kaila didn't mind that his was the complete opposite of her taste for men, and they arranged to meet.

At that time, Kaila lived in Jerusalem and was quiet in Or Yehuda. For the purpose of the meeting, Kaila traveled for a weekend with her grandparents in Netanya together to meet the guy who captured her from the first message. Already on his first date he proved himself a gentleman, and came to pick her up from the house key. "He came to pick me up and we went to Cinema City for coffee and cake, he was a gentleman," Kyle says, excited as if everything had just happened yesterday, and recalls how he held her hand "like in the movies ...". From the first moment Kaila knew that this was it, because everything felt right - the conversations, the openness, the connection - and with such a feeling it was impossible to argue.

When they arrived in Netanya, they took advantage of the pouring rain and continued to sit in the vehicle for hours, because they did not want the evening to end. And so, two hours from the start of his date, Azer was adopted and kissed Kayla. But like a true gentleman, Shelly didn't let them exhaust all the conversation topics, and sent Kylie to sleep. it worked. The next morning Kaila sent a message with a suggestion for another meeting, and Shalu accepted her offer. The couple had no problems - after a couple of months of confession, he confessed to Kaila who was unsure of the relationship's success but decided to keep trying, and after nearly four years together, Kaila decided it was time to step up and face his ultimatum - it was time to pull out the ring.

A month later, just the day they started dating four years ago, the moment came. Shalev took Kaila to the restaurant, took out a square black box from his coat, and began to tear and shake. Took minutes to relax, then knelt and asked the question. Kaila said "yes" and began to cry too. Today, a month and a half after the wedding, the two live together, Kaila studies at Shankar, who works at Amdocs, they save for a home and love still flourishes: "It's something we can't find. We have a special connection."

The perfect gentleman

The love story between Deborah and my colleagues began Saturday morning. Deborah (Debbie), 27, had immigrated to Israel five years earlier and was looking for a way to get to know people, which is how the app recognized my 28-year-old colleague. My colleague, he's a serious guy looking for parity, and the app was in his favor and showed 98% match between the two. He read everything Debbie had written on a profile, a profile just written so that the guy who sent her a message would not only contact her based on her pictures. Probably that's why everything flowed from the beginning and they didn't have to struggle to find common themes, and the first date proved that.

They went to Tel Aviv bar and the chemistry was there from the first moment. "He was serious. I felt he was talking to me and not four other girls at the same time." The date, which took place in the Tel Aviv bar, was very successful. They didn't stop talking. At the end of the evening my colleague did not act as the "typical Israeli" and did not want to go for coffee, which ultimately turned out to be a smart act because that is definitely what finally fascinated Debbie: "He was a gentleman. Told me good night, came home and that's it." But my colleague took the gentlemanly behavior to an end, causing Debbie to take the reins in his hands and offer him to go up to her apartment at the end of the third date, anyway - how much can you let the girl wait?

Last September, the two went on a vacation in Mykonos, where they organized private sailors on the Greek coast. Debbie didn't suspect anything, and honestly believed it was simply part of their romantic outing. Before sunset, during the cruise, my colleague pulled out the ring and asked Debbie the long-awaited question. Debbie, who was so surprised, moved to tears and immediately agreed. At these moments, Debbie and my colleagues are drowning in wedding preparations to be held this October.

Wedding from the first date

27-year-old Noa immigrated from the United States eight years ago, feeling it was time to go on a successful date, and decided to go the way of a good friend and her brother, who met their partner and spouse through the app. What she didn't know was that she wouldn't need the app much anymore, because 30-year-old Tomer was her first and last date.

On the first date, they went out to the bar, where they sat for a few hours and had open and flowing conversations about life, even though the fact that movement was religious and Tomer did not maintain a religious lifestyle. He opened up to Noa his fears about being able to bridge these gaps, and instead of going farther, it only brought them closer - his honesty only emphasized his willingness and seriousness about the couple, and Noah loved what she saw.
.
The two went on to get to know each other, but alas - after a time Noa got a knee on her own, and felt it was too serious for her. As part of her honesty, Noa opened the topic to Tomer, who answered the answer every girl wants to hear from the man of her life - "It's too late. We'll deal with it." After a while, when the couple became more serious, Tomer traveled with Noa to the United States to meet her family, and when their first date, Tomer decided that he was proposing marriage.

One Saturday, Tomer invited Noa for a short Saturday morning walk, and led her to a restaurant she loved. The next stop was a romantic corner facing the sea, where he brought out beers, blankets - and the ring. Last July, Noa and Tomer stood under the canopy, and next month they travel to South Africa for the honeymoon and their first trip as husband and wife.
