Love Stories of Triumph

Hello there Triumph, this is a very special time of year for me especially here in game where I spend many hours a week with good friends and a special somebody. It's kind of funny looking back through the times i've spent here, and how it grew from just a game to keep in touch with my buddy in PA, to being a huge part of my life that brought me great new friends and the love of my life. It's a good story, and feel it's the appropriate time of year to spill my heart here to hopefully brighten your day just a smidgen, so here ya go.

For those that don't know me my name is Marcus, I'm 22 years old, live in Plano Texas, originally from Pittsburgh PA (Go Pens). I came about playing City of Heroes when I moved down to Texas after Culinary School was over, my buddy Travis bugging me all the time to play it since before I came down here. But figured this is a good chance to give it a shot so I can keep in touch and have fun playing game and such. So I dove into a 14 day free trial, and never looked back since. About 6 months into playing the game, having a blast all the time with my friends and new friends I met on here, I came upon a girl in Atlas. Her name was Kay Parfait, just hanging out, as I usually do, I decided to go be nice and introduce myself. We got to talking that day, and eventually teaming up together a lot, joining the same SG, doing MS Raids together, and eventually forming our own SG. She was this amazing girl, 21 years old, living in Lincoln Nebraska going to school for Photography, cute as a button and an amazingly nice personality, not one person had a bad thing to say about her. So we decided to venture forward with this relationship and see if anything would blossom from it. Talking everyday on AIM, sending eachother gifts, and just waiting for that day we could finally meet in person. After much delaying because her parents going through a divorce and moving into a new house, we finally met the last week of September of 2009.

It was nothing short of magical, I got there while she was still at class so I got to get interrogated by her mother in the basement waiting for her to get home. We heard her pulling into the garage and as I walked up the stairs I saw her standing before me, completely speechless and she just ran into my arms. It was the greatest feeling in the world, and that entire weekend you couldn't pry us apart. Over the next few months we'd visit eachother more often, spending some time up there, and having her come down here. This past New Year's I took her up to Pittsburgh to meet all my friends and some of my family, and it's amazing how they all just knew there was something very special taking place. We always do toasts at New Year's and one of my friends actually cried talking about the love he felt between the two of us and it was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. I can't wait to spend even more time with her, and when she finally gets out of school next year, for her to move down here and we can start our lives together, because I'm never letting her go.

So I just want to thank my buddy Travis for introducing me to the game, Kristina for being such an understanding, loving, and paitent girlfriend, and every single person that calls Triumph home, because you guys are the reason I stuck around as long as I did and why I continue to come back every single week and have a blast with great people that we have here.

Anybody else have some great tales of Love to share with us, in this festive loving time of year? Has this game brought you close to somebody, or somebody you know? =)

Dude, I am seriously happy for you two... rock on! But you have to put spoiler warnings on these things - or at least "Go get the Kleenex" warnings... Little happy tears leaking into the keyboard does terrible things to the electronics!
