I wrote a poem and put it online (a public journal) where people could view and comment. I was not into chat lines and do not have a myspace. I simply shared my talent. A wonderful woman from New Zealand read the poem and commented. We talked for over a half a year on the phone (sometimes 6-8 hours per day), wrote each other via e-mail and postal.

After 7 months of getting to know all about each other, we decided to get married. God provided me with enough funds to stay almost two weeks in New Zealand for our honeymoon. We also got married on my wife’s 21st birthday and decided to save our first kiss for our wedding day!

It was the most beautiful time of my entire life. We have bee happily married for 3 and a half years now and still enjoy holding hands and cuddling. People think we’re boyfriend and girlfriend. I attribute our loving bond to the fact we chose not to live together and we waited for intimacy before marrying.

Debra - Thanks for visiting and thanks for asking. I believe it is okay for you to cite the statistics as long as you give proper credit to the source.

Hello:

My name is Debra Capperrune and I am writing a book titled Wake Up and Smell the Culture. One of my chapters I talk about cohabitation. I am asking for permissions to please use the statistics on living together before marriage from Michael McManus, the president of Marriage Savers. Thank you for your time and concern for any considerations.

Sincerely,

Debra Capperrune
