Man Finds Bride-To-Be On YouTube
(SF)
Original Story Here
BOSTON -- He posted his cell phone number on YouTube to connect with strangers, and now a man has found love thanks to the Web site.
Ryan Fitzgerald, 20, of Southbridge, Mass., posted his number on the popular Web site back in April in order to connect with lonely people who needed someone to talk to. He got thousands of calls from strangers around the world, but one call was very special.
Fitzgerald spoke with a young woman named Kara Lael Fraim, 18, from upstate New York as a result, and their first call lasted about nine hours.
They met in person just days later and now, the couple is engaged.
Fitzgerald ended up with 16,000 other friends on MySpace and gets thousands of text messages from acquaintances around the world.
He said that since his bride-to-be is only 18, she wants to wait until 2010 to get married -- when she is 21 years old.

As opposed to 2007...
when she's a 50 year old man.

Complete surrender should not just come at moments in which one faces overwhelming odds, but in the calm when it seems one is personally in complete control of one's life.
