Many have heard about love at first sight. But now we are talking about something else. The heroes of this material decided to connect life with each other, never seeing each other. So, Fedor made an offer after six months of continuous correspondence, without even knowing what the chosen one looks like. And Victor realized that he had found “the one” after two days of online communication. Unusual love stories - in the material RIA News.
"Met a loved one"
Viktor Shalganov has been happy with his wife Yulia for 12 years. For the sake of his beloved from a village in the Kursk region, he moved to Zheleznogorsk (a city in the same region). He offered his hand and heart after two days of correspondence. “We met by chance. At work, an acquaintance advised: "Download the Mail.ru agent, we will communicate there." I installed, while I was figuring it out, I accidentally hit search, I saw pictures of different people. I looked at my future wife - my heart skipped a beat. I don't know how she hooked me - just a chuyka. “Knocked” at her. And two days later he invited me to get married. Suddenly I realized: my man, thinks like me, ”- recalls Victor.
Julia did not immediately agree, it was necessary to think, but she did not stop corresponding with the fan. A month and a half later, Shalganov waited for the first date - he came to visit her.
“I drank sedatives all the way. Met - behaved like a vegetable, worried. I'm an ordinary country guy, around her, probably, other, rich, and here - a dude in a sweatshirt, felt shoes, jeans three sizes larger and a sheepskin coat for a thousand rubles. We walked around the city, walked around it several times. Understood - this is a dear person. Everything she said was in my soul. Three hours later I was going home. I walk through the yard to the bus stop, and Yulia is standing on the balcony, crying - and so am I. "
Then he worked for a five-day week as a consultant in a store, but every weekend he rushed to Zheleznogorsk. Although the city is in the same region, there is no direct connection: “Train, bus, minibus - many changes”.

A month later, he moved to Julia, found a job. Almost immediately they applied to the registry office: they met at the end of February, and at the beginning of August they were already married. They did without a splendid celebration: “We celebrated in a narrow circle - the two of us and parents on both sides. They did not allow me to celebrate finances with pomp: I just moved to the city, the house remained in the village, the loan, which I paid off for three more years.
He never regretted that he made the decision to get married so quickly: “I was already married. We fought with my ex for two or three weeks, I even left, but here for three hours - and we put up. It's the most important. I take Yulia to work in the car and count the hours when to meet her. Until now - the anticipation of a date. I know her as myself, and she feels good about me too. If you put a comma in the wrong place in the correspondence, immediately the question: "What happened, there is no mood?"
Victor did not hide that he found his beloved on the Web, and wonders why others are embarrassed to admit it. “Many are ashamed that they met on the Internet. I am a videographer, once I filmed a wedding, I interviewed each of the young people separately. When asked how they met, the bride answered as it is: “I saw his profile on social networks, I liked him, I liked him, he answered me”. And the groom began: "We met in the company of friends." Then he told me: "Why did you set us on fire?"
Victor became a videographer by accident. In Zheleznogorsk I repaired computers, once bought a camera - “just for myself”. “One client suggested, 'Take off my daughter's ransom.' I did it, posted it on the Web, a local photographer saw it and said: "Do it further." Now Shalganov has not only a new family, but also a job - which he is very pleased with.
"Are you serious or what?"
Victor is not the only romantic who immediately realized that he had found “the one” and did not want to part. Tatiana Likhoshvai from Belgorod, the future husband offered his hand and heart right on the day of meeting. “He called me to get married three times,” she laughs. - We were introduced by a mutual friend. Nikita frightened me at first with his appearance: I am small, and he is two meters tall, so big. But there was something interesting about him. Together with a friend, he took me home, everyone sat down on their phones, and in the evening I wrote to him - I wanted to know how I got there. We chatted, I said that I live with a friend, I can cook and fix something without any problems - I am playing a male role in the house. And he: "Marry me, please", as if in jest. We are both Capricorns, born in the year of the Ox - stubborn. I replied: "Come on, let's go." It’s like a test - who will give up first ”.
However, on the same evening, Tatyana and Nikita seriously decided that they would go to the registry office tomorrow. It did not work out only because the girl got sick. "If I was even a little, but worried, then he absolutely did not worry: he wanted me to become his wife, although they knew each other one evening." Young people began to meet, a month later followed by a second proposal. Tatyana well remembers that conversation - Nikita, as usual, accompanied her home in the evening.
- When you have a day off?
- The day after tomorrow.
- Well, then, to the registry office.
- Seriously?
- Well yes.
“We applied for 18 August - it turned out 18.08.2018. A month before the wedding, he proposed the third time - already officially, with a ring. Nikita is unusual, spontaneous, a little out of this world, at the same time stubborn, persistent: he came, saw, won. It's the same with our wedding, ”Likhoshvay recalls.

Then there were guests, a white dress, a photo session. Friends laughed: "Are you kidding, are you?" But Tatyana's mother took the sudden ceremony for granted. “Even after the first sentence, I warned:“ Mom, I can get married, don't be surprised. ” When he talked about it for the second time, I wrote to her: "That's it, tomorrow we are going to the registry office." She replied: "Congratulations!" She reacted normally to the news, although she hadn’t seen Nikita yet - we met later. ”
The couple celebrated the second anniversary of their marriage, they already have a child. Tatiana admits: the young family went through a crisis in the first months after the birth of the baby - “but it happens to everyone.” Its OK now.
“Nikita has changed, he has become serious and responsible. When we started dating, he was an actor on quests - he scared people. Now he is a cook - a good, stable job. I have no acquaintances who got married so quickly. Many, on the contrary, met for a long time, and then dispersed. Yes, and I myself have been with the boy for three years in the past, and this has not led to anything, ”says Tatiana.
“I haven't even seen her photographs”
Fedor and Marina corresponded for six months, after which the young man, having never met his chosen one, made her an offer.
She read me in LiveJournal, I saw her comments from mutual acquaintances, looked at her blog, but did not interact directly. And we began to communicate like this: on May 9, in the army, they drove us to the club to watch "Turkish Gambit". It was so boring that I thought, "I need to write to someone." He served in Novosibirsk, but before that he lived in Moscow, a social circle from that time zone - everyone there sleeps at this time. I think: "Who do I have on this side of the Urals?" I found either a phone or Marina's ICQ. So we corresponded, - laughs Fedor. - I didn’t really see her, even in the photographs: now her face is covered by a camera, now in the shadows. He knew that he was wearing glasses, and had a rough idea of his build. There is no point in looking for a person by their appearance - after all, it changes. Kindness, intelligence, sense of humor - these are the parameters to choose a companion. "

Fedor does not even remember if he asked before the first date how old Marina is. He cannot immediately answer in what words he offered his hand and heart.
- Wife, what did I call you to marry? - he shouts cheerfully into the room.
- Here's how: “Usually they talk about these things differently and in a different setting, but since it all worked out, we will stop pulling the cat by the tail,” Marina prompts.
- Eyewitness testimony, - Fyodor laughs.
“Not an eyewitness, but a direct participant in the events,” she laughs in response.
Two months after the proposal, Fedor flew to Irkutsk, met personally with Marina and her parents, then the bride paid a visit to Moscow. They signed up at the registry office of the Academic district, lived in the capital for a while, then moved to Voronezh, and then to Irkutsk.
“And this is the best city I've ever been to,” Fedor is sure. Marina admits: at the first meeting she was worried that the groom would not like it. “I was sick, I didn't look my best, I was afraid, I would be disappointed.” The other day they celebrated the tenth anniversary of family life.
