After several years of being single and finding myself, I started to look online and I stumbled across Filipino Bride. This was something new and exciting for me. That's what lead me to the Philippines. When I first came to Cebu to meet her, I had already gone out with 1 girl but I was gonna go back for the socials and then make a decision. But she was just so beautiful and so nice. I was interested in marrying her right away. By the second social, I had already had strong feelings for Maricris. So I just basically went table to table meeting all the girls, but I already knew in my heart and soul that I met somebody very special. The deciding moment was after we had been together for a week. It just felt right.
