I’m Just Say’n: Sensitive about online meeting

Dear Carolyn,
I’m engaged to a wonderful man. He is good looking, smart and kind. We not only love each other, but we also enjoy being together. I’m excited about planning the wedding and can’t wait until we are married.
There’s one problem. We met online in a single truckers dating site. I posted my profile on a whim, and he contacted me within an hour of posting. His was the funniest and most genuine profile on the site, and we hit it off right away. But now when people ask me how we met, I feel funny saying we met online. He thinks I’m being too sensitive about it, but I can’t help how I feel. Should I come up with a better “cute meet” story? It’s just too weird to tell it straight.
Donna
Dear Donna,
