Through Thick and Thin
Bobby and Abby Green keep on proving that if something is worth it, you will fight for it.
Bobby was a senior in high school, and Abby was a sophomore when they met. She knew that he was the one for her. They shared similar interests in school activities and had the same sense of humor. Every time he was near her, her heart would skip a beat.

Their relationship started in the 1970s when interracial dating was still heavily frowned upon. Abby shares that the couple went through a lot to be together. Her parents weren't thrilled at first with her dating Bobby, but they grew to know and love him.
Bobby's family welcomed Abby with open arms, and after the unfortunate event of Abby losing her mother, Bobby's mother became like a mother to her.
They celebrate 46 years of being together and have one daughter and three grandchildren. Abby has unfortunately been diagnosed with MR, and she has had some difficulties navigating everyday life, but she stated that she's lucky to have her husband do things for her and help her.

Coaching Testimonial
"The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience"
Submitted by: Karen, USA, 34
My Dating Coach really took the time to go through my profile thoroughly. First she viewed my pictures and gave me great feedback.
She read through the written portion of my profile, line by line, and gave direct feedback on how to add my personality to it.
My amazing consultant, even asked how my contacts where going and offered a few suggestions to increase my interactions with new men.
I took her advice and made the suggested adjustments.
I have received more contact from men, more views, and have started communicating with more people which was the whole point of joining the site in the first place.
The Coaching Service served as an incredible perk and has really enhanced my online dating experience. Thanks!
