Happy Monday beautiful kfbers! Today’s TLS features inter-racial lovebirds, Michelle and Danny Bennett. Michelle is a Ghanaian while Danny is from Trinidad.
Michelle met Danny just when she was beginning to get tired of being a single mom.
Read their beautiful love story below:
Danny and I, were introduced to each other through a mutual
friend via face book , on February 12, 2011. At the time, we were both
at our wits end with the notion of ” finding love”. I was a single
mother and was getting tired of the “single life”.
He was the hopeless
romantic; I was stealing hearts, with my charming nature. He fell in
love with me at “first sight”; I on the other hand, thought that he was
just a cute skinny dude!
Naturally, I had pegged him as “just another
guy ,that I was going to waste time with”. Before we were able to meet
face to face, all of our exchanges were done online. I wasn’t too keen
on giving out my number, to a guy I only knew via “face book”- he was in
agreeance with that. Although we were getting along and seemed to be
compatible, I had continued to keep him at arms length.
On February 19, 2011 we were set to finally meet, face to face. I
had invited him to come see a free play, at a local church. He had
brought along three of his friends (including our mutual friend) and I
had brought one of my closest friends. He was EXTREMELY shy and barely
talked to me- he didn’t even sit next to me! I was EXTREMELY playful and
the complete opposite. I remember throwing tiny wads of paper at him,
just to break the ice. It had worked, but unfortunately, my friend had
an emergency so we had to cut the evening short. I gave him my number
and told him to call me sometime- he called me that evening ,lol.
The
very next day after our initial face to face, we had gotten into a
little argument. We did not speak to each other,for five days. Neither
one of us wanted to be the first ,to let go of our pride. It took for
our mutual friend to intervene and get us to reconcile.
On February 27, 2011 we had our first official date- just us two.
We had went to Dave and Busters. We had a blast! We are both so
competitive, so I took pleasure in beating him in majority of the games.
That night, something happened. In the midst of having all that fun and
just spending time with each other, I took a serious look at Danny. I
looked in his eyes and I saw into his beautiful soul. It was at that
moment, that I had fell in love – HEAD OVER HEELS! We have been
inseparable ever since…..
I had introduced him to my daughter and she instantly fell in
love with him. They have an unbreakable bond.
On August 30, 2012 we had
welcomed a son together. It will be five years, since fate brought us
together and on September 24, 2016(Lord willing) we will become one…..
