How did you meet your significant other?

Forgive me if there is other threads like this, but I think it would be cool to hear where other people met their spouse/fiance/gf/bf. :)

    I met mine through a mutual friend. We had never met because he lived in another country but we spoke online and one day I decided to just pay him a visit in Germany - 4 months later I moved to Germany and 3.5+ years later, we're still here and very happy :)

    On line dating.
    I paid for three months, chatted to him on the first day, met him on the 3rd day and never looked at the dating site again....

    lol don't tell anyone, but we met on Craigslist! it seemed unlikely at first because of our 15 year age difference, but we talked online for what felt like years! (it was only 2 months though) then we finally met up with our dogs at the park, and we've just had our first anniversary, on May 28th!!

    She went to University with my now ex. I think we met at her flat and she called me the wrong name on purpose for months. We hated each other.

    match.com. I also paid for 3 months, but he is the only guy I ever went past email stage with. Literally used the site for about 2 days. Met him a few days later. We are now married for 5 years, have two amazing kids.

    We met on Myspace, back when that was a thing, because I liked his profile picture of Mr. Gumby. 3 years later I went to England on vacation and we met in person, and here we are 5 years after that, married for a year and a half. I love the internet.

    Las Vegas. We met his friend in a club in the Bellagio....we hung out with them until 5 in the morning, exchanged numbers. 3 weeks later I flew to Denver to spend a weekend snowboarding. And we've been together for 15 months now. Happy as can be, still long distance though; but much shorter distance than Florida-Colorado.

    We met in an MSN chat room when my hubby was in the army, got engaged before meeting face to face while he was deployed in Iraq. Met each other for the first time while he was on emergency leave for his grandmothers funeral, which he missed and I did all his parts in the funeral after meeting his family BEFORE him. Married 1 month after he got back from deployment. Been married 9 years now!

    I met him through ICQ about 12 years ago. 10 years ago we met up, dated for a couple of weeks but he lived at the other side of the country and we were both young and poor so we gave it up as a bad job. Then about 18 months ago I caught up with him and we were both single for the first time since the last time and we lived just over an hour apart so we met up again and have been together ever since.

    I am currently trying to find a job nearer so I can move in with him (at his request).

    I waited a long time for this!
