How did you meet your b/f or husband?

[Pink_minx]

I met my bf online (thedilly.com) a couple years ago. We known eachother for a year then stopped talking for a long time then after a year later I IMed him on AIM one day and found out he had a g/f shucks!

but we still talked anyways. He was having problems with his g/f and I was there chatting with him lol giving him advice saying everything will be fine etc. etc. then a couple weeks later they broke it off (yes!) lol not to be mean. Then we started talking for awhile. Months went by I wanted to see him cause he lived in san jose where my cousin lived and I go visit there every now and then. Then we finally saw eachother I really really liked him cause he was such a hot football player haha and was so sweet and kind to me. We talked non stop and finally he asked me to be is "girlfriend" YAY

We had a long distant relationship which was really hard and sad at times not seeing him much. Then he decided to move to where I live after we graduate highschool and went to a college very close by. And now we are still together and been together for 1 year and 4 months!

I was just thinking if I have never IMed him that day we wouldnt be together now. Weird how one little decision can make a big change in life.

haha. in '97, he used to be my high school judo instructor (six year age difference). needless to say, i did NOT impress him with my techniques since i was seventeen at the time (he told me later that he thought i was a fish-i got thrown easy).

a couple of years back, i was waitressing the graveyard shift at a local restaurant. he used to come in drunk off his ass with his friends and since he was a regular, i chatted him up a bit. (i flirted to get more money. i'm notoriously dense when it comes to someone hitting on me). he would ask me to go clubbing with him and his friends and i used to have a strict rule about dating customers.

don't ask me why i said yes. i don't know to this day WHY i said yes, but we ended up making out at the club.

okay, going back to my denseness-- i saw that as kind of funny and brushed it off... until he would find reasons to stop by every night after- to use the bathroom, to get a soda, etc. i called my friend who worked under him (my boyfriend's a manager) and he told me that he was asking questions about me- if i was seeing anyone, etc.

i got it after that. we've been dating ever since. he's seen me through two E.R. visits (i got in a bad car accident and a very bad bout with the flu) and met my mom for the first time when he was driving her to see me at the E.R. after the car accident. yeah. he's still here

True dork that I am, I met my boyfriend at a graduate academic conference. I was giving a paper on society's psychological fascination with serial killers, mainly Jeffrey Dahmer, and afterwards, he came up to me outside and told me that his hometown was near Dahmer's hometown (what a pick up line!). At the end of the conference party, we ended up talking about music and philosophy and whatnot (mainly disagreeing about various philosophical thinkers), and eventually he asked for my number. It was pretty much a love at first sight kind of thing, really, and we've been together ever since!

Well, I met my husband almost 2 years ago on the old Billy-Corgan.com forums. We started emailing each other daily in February and in March we decided to make it exclusive even though he was in Austria and I was in North Carolina. We started calling each other once a week and one day in April he called and said that he had an important question for me. He asked me to marry him right then and there on the phone. Mind you we had never met in person but still I said yes because I knew that what we had was very special. So, he mailed me my engagement ring and some money for my plane ticket and on July 3rd of 2004 I moved to Austria. We got married just 6 months to the day that we first met, August 25th. We are still going strong. And in July of this year I got to personally thank Mr. Corgan for the part that he played in our relationship. I know it seems "wow" to some but you just know when something is perfect for you and my husband is totally perfect for me.

I met him in the spring of '98 in the old mirc forums (are they still even around?) - he came from Ontario to visit his brother who lives nearby and we met up for Pizza and Canada Day fireworks - he was in town for a few days before he had to go away with the miltary for 3 months - he called me every day and when he got home decided to move from Ontario to be with me. We have been together ever since

I met my husband as the result of a Yahoo personal ad in 2000 (I had moved away after high school and when I came back, I basically knew nobody and my best friend was not a good source for meeting people at all). We went on two dates then didn't talk for 6 months because I did some stupid stuff then 6 months later, he sent me an email to check up on me. We started talking again and a month later, we went out again and I pretty much stayed with him from that point forward. We got married in May of 2003

 

[Pink_minx]

Aw what sweet stories! some of us have a lil in common by meeting our loves online thanks to the internet.

 

[lah_knee]

I met my boyfriend at Church... hahah yes i do get some laughs from that. but this was back in high school. we were both 16 going on 17. we started dating a few months after we met. he broke up with his at the time, girlfriend just to go out with me

and now... 6 years later, we are still together. we are moving out in february FINALLY after saving money (its pricey to live out here in so cal!) and we dont plan to get married until we are done with school and have saved enough money for a house.
i think we are pacing ourselves quite well <3

i met my DH 13 years ago at the mall! his family had just opened a store across from my mom's store, and i fell head over heels in love the 1st time i saw him!! (as corny as that sound it's true!) that's what made me believe in love at first sight.. i called my best friend that very same day and told her i just saw the man i'm going to marry! after that i called almost every friens i knew to find out if any of them knew him, and once i did, she helped arrange a "chance" encounter with him, and 2 years of dating, and 11 years of marriage later , we're still going strong!!

In a private chat that one of my online friends started, and his real life best friend started. We chatted on there for around a year and in i.m.s Started talking on the phone, and now a year and a half later I live with him. I moved from minnesota to south carolina for him.

 

[lovemichelle]

Thru my cousin. My boyfriend is her husbands nephew. They told me he was moving up here and when we met we clicked and we been together since.

 

[aquarius11]

My hubby and I are high school sweethearts!!! Yeah, I know, it's corny. We've been together for 10 years. We graduated high school in 1995, so yeah, we made it pretty far. I just love him to pieces!!!

 

[tricky]

i too met my bf on the internet (old anti-social.com forums). we started being "exclusive" in May '00 after 1 year of chatting. we had a LD relationship for 2 years then i moved to CA to live w/ him in October '02. so weird to think it'll be 6 years this May.

 

[vloky]

I always feel like such a doofus admitting I met my boyfriend on the internet. It's becoming really common though, I guess. Any of you others feel the same? I have some family members that tease me over it. Bah.

I met my husband in June of 1995- I wanted a date for the big local 4th of July celebration.... Anyways Mom took my sister and I to the lake after she got home from work quite a bit (I just graduated from HS). He showed up the first day and a friend who I hung out at the lake with hit on him (so I figured he was interested in her because she was really coming on to him). So I mentioned I'd be back the next day (didn't know his name then) - anyways finally made it back the next day and he was there- then we found out that we were both raised in Nebraska and Oklahoma for part of our lives so that was neat - we ended up getting married by November of that year. Funny you never know when you will meet the "right" one. I guess it just happened early for me.
