Single soldiers keen to find a partner might take inspiration from a couple who married just four months after meeting online.<\/p>\n
Christine and Chris Rae got together for a lunch date after becoming penpals on the internet, the Daily Mail reports.<\/p>\n
"I was as nervous as a teenager but I felt like there was such a connection between us," Mrs Rae explained, adding that the date came to an end too soon.<\/p>\n
Her grown-up daughters appear to be happy with the whirlwind romance and one of them said Mrs Rae's new partner was "lovely".<\/p>\n
People looking to follow in the couple's footsteps should remember to be polite to the individuals who contact them online.<\/p>\n
The Independent recently stated singletons are likely to receive some unwanted attention and making a firm "thanks, but no thanks" is likely to work well.<\/p>\n
Single soldiers who intend to meet up with their new acquaintances must remember to tell a friend or family member where they are going and who they are going to see.
