You know Irish, I think you are one of the main reasons this site bonded like it did. For many of us that were here when you had your first trip, saw how supportive the men were here, it gave us a safe haven, if you will, for what we wanted to do. We could be honest about things and not get blasted by some unseen idiot claiming he was Mr. macho. I know a few tried that but the mods here took care of that crap immediately. The bonding that came from that experience has carried over into the new guys that come here. I truly think that was when the "brotherhood" was born. At least for me it was. And I hope that it will continue even after we are gone.
Anyway, I am so glad that you will have finally found "The One". It has been tough for you but you had your heart set on what you know you wanted and needed. And kept at it until you have her. Now nothing should stop you. No matter what it takes. Congratulations brother.
