Romance - Where did you meet your partner?
Replies
-
I'm a bit of a romantic at heart. I would say I would have made a really great guy because I've read so many romance novels (not that I expect that's real life).
So I'm curious...
Where did you meet you partner?
What did you first notice about him/her?
What is their best quality you appreciate?
I would comment but I'm single....so that's why I'm curious
Where did you meet you partner? In Kuwait after the party that a bunch of us were at got broken up by security. We went back to one of the guy's house who was at the original party and that turned out to be my husband's roommate
What did you first notice about him/her? How full of life and laughter he is.
What is their best quality you appreciate? He trusts easily, but that also makes his best quality his worst quality

12 years ago I was widowed and never wanted to marry again.
Nine years ago I went online to find a "friend"
Met my "friend" face to face within three days of meeting online.
I was immediately attracted to this tall, sweet very nice man. (he had been rejected by many women because he was "nice:)
We have been happily married for five years and now share two lovely grandchildren.
PS he is tall and has an almost perfect build, I am fat and have been since the day we met (working on that now though).
Cheers

Where did you meet you partner?
On MFP, but I moved 850 miles to be with him :-)
What did you first notice about him/her?
First, that he was gorgeous and had amazing muscles and could relate to me because we had both lost a crap ton of weight. The less superficial stuff came later :-)
What is their best quality you appreciate?
Too many to name just one. He is the strongest man I know - not just physically, but his strength of character is incredible. He is an amazing father (to both his son and mine). He is infinitely patient and incredibly hard working and soooooooooooo funny and crazy smart and crazy about me. He gives me hope when I feel hopeless about my physical limitations... Annnnnnnnd the sex is unbelievably great. :-)0 -

--Met my husband (we've been together almost 10 yrs, married for 6) in college, we were in the "All American" Marching Band together and we had a lot of mutual friends, we all hung around together during the Bowl trip late December... so that's where we first started talking/flirting :-)
--Noticed he was tall and handsome (with perfect blue eyes) and liked to tickle me :-) We had friends in common so I had a hunch we'd get along pretty well.
--These days, I couldn't just pick one quality to appreciate most about him. He's forgiving and gracious, does not raise his voice at me, is very good at taking care of me while I'm sick, he's very patient and extremely intelligent. And he is turning out to be a fabulous father to our almost-5-mo old :-)0 -

I met him online originally but in person at a walgreens pharmacy.
What did you first notice about him/her?
His smile, secondly he is shaped like a sexy football player
What is their best quality you appreciate?
That he can make me laugh and he's not afraid to be honest
Been with my husband for 9 years0 -
Where did you meet you partner?
Pre-school...
What did you first notice about him/her?
I probably didn't notice him. XD
What is their best quality you appreciate?
I really can't choose just *one* quality as his best quality. He has a series of qualities which create the man I love and admire. He is exceptionally intelligent, hard working, ambitious, generous, compassionate, incredibly open minded, honest, sensual, passionate, patient, modest... to name a few.0 -
Where did you meet? On xbox!!!
Where did you meet IRL? Outside of a Loblaws grocery store
What did you first notice? That he was extremely smart and pretty good at Halo..
What did you first notice IRL? Wow, he's even hotter in real life, and omg look at his car (insert some sort of fan girling or something)
What is their best quality you appreciate? He's funny, smart, he has a lot of patience with me and can explain all the answers to the questions I have easily.. And of course we play video games so that just gives us more to do together..
I've been in an LDR for 3 years now so I have 2 different meetings.. I was just visiting him for 2 months and he's back home with me now for a week or so.. Now I'm just all excited thinking about this again.. Thanks OP

I met my husband online in 1999, talking on AOL instant messenger. We talked online/phone for 4 mos, then met in person. Dated for 9 mos and got married that was almost 13 yrs ago and 4 kids later. 0

MFP
For real?!
For real. I'm her. So I guess that makes my answer the same.
What first attracted me to him was his sense of humor. And though I acted crazy sometimes, he always could see through it and see the real me. Even before we ever met.0 -
First met my guy on Facebook in 2011 and we've been dating online ever since (we met in person twice so far), and soon to be moving in together. His great sense of humor was the first thing to grab my attention, but my favorite quality that he has is his kindness and dedication.0

I met my husband at college.
The first thing I noticed about him was that he was tall.
He is very patient and slow to anger, I appreciate that he is not a hothead. Also, he is very protective of and kind to me :flowerforyou:0 -
We met online on pof... I was absolutely sick of pof. I saw his profile. He was new to pof. He seemed overall sweet, nerdy and had beautiful eyes in his pic. He read my brief message and I saw that he had but hadn't answered. Being ignored annoys the heck outta me so I figured this was the last straw and I was deleting my account when I got home from work. By the time I got home I'd received a message from him. We lived about 35 miles apart and hit it off right away, had so very much in common. Love the giant with all my heart. Been together a year and a half now and been living together for 6 months.
I'd been single more than two years. I met him still weighing 210lbs and he thinks I'm super sexy even though I gained back to what I was a year before we met.
If you feel too insecure to currently date then don't, but my opinion has always been high of myself, no matter my size. That is why I dated and met several men highly interested in me, but they simply were not who I wanted. No click, no butterflies...
My giant is my forever love and when you are destined to find yours you shall.

Across an orchestra pit!
His smile and cheeky sense of humour
Loyalty, still has that sense of humour, very intelligent!
It took us 5years to get together - we kept meeting up in orchestras...but 26 years later still smiling....
I was a beanpole in those days. Sigh!0 -

Then we met up in person in Paris (he lived in france and I moved there last year) and hit it off. Now we've been together for over a year
What did you first notice about him/her? His friendly voice and intelligence
What is their best quality you appreciate?
Not to be corny but there is no "best" quality, its everything about him together that makes me appreciate him as much as I do!0 -
Where did you meet you partner?
my husband found me on an alternative lifestyle dating website.
What did you first notice about him/her?
His first email was intriguing enough for me to want to talk to him. We exchanged a few emails, talked on the phone once and meet in person 7 days later. Within 10 mins I knew he was the one. What was supposed to be a short lunch, turned out to be 7.5 hours of walking and talking. I came home and took my profile down and have not regretted it once. We have been together for 3 years and just got married about 10 weeks ago.
What is their best quality you appreciate?
He is dependable. No matter what is going on, I know that I can count on him. He is my best friend and I dont want to ever live without him. He is my biggest supporter and I love him with all my heart.0 -
I met my husband while I was bartending at a Microbrewery.
The first thing I noticed was that he slipped through the door that I had been too busy to lock and a rudely asked him, "Do you want to order food?" He said he did no, so I let him stay. I noticed that he was very social and handsome.
Best quality as that he makes me laugh.0 -

Where did you meet you partner?
I met him online nearly 6 years ago, in a chat-room, we both don't exactly remember how we ended up being contacts in msn, but at first he was really getting on my nerves lol but then we became friends and finally ended up lovers. He was living in france back then and i was living in canada, so he came to visit me and i knew from then that he was the one.
What did you first notice about him/her?
When i saw him for the first time i noticed his eyes, there was so much kindness emerging from them, he just made me feel safe and at peace ( and i still love looking at his eyes )
What is their best quality you appreciate?
He's always there to support me when i need it, he gives great advice and whenever i struggle with something he's the one who keeps me from giving up. He's so loving and adorable, i just can't imagine my life without him.0 -

Married in 2008
Had son 2009
He works his *kitten* off for us and still gets to the gym even if its at 2am!0 -
Outside the front door of my apartment. I was grilling out and she and a friend were walking by on the way to a party. Had I cooked inside that day, I'd never have met her. We've been married 30 years.0

In a club, I banged into him when I was walking past.
I noticed how hot he was!
His best qualities are his kindness and how he makes me feel beautiful0 -
I met my husband when I was 19. We were both in the Army. I was at the Enlisted Men's club with friends He was there with friends. He asked to be introduced to me. From then on we were inseparable. We fell in love at first sight. I especially liked his eyes. He has been my best friend for 44 yrs. No matter what happens good or bad he's always there with his support. Don't think I could live with out him.

Where did you meet you partner?
First met her on the first day of college, when we had been put in the same classes on a number of subjects. Before long our groups of friends merged into one, which meant we spent a long while as friends. Would have asked her out sooner, but knew (and still know) that she was completely out of my league.
Got together 2.5 years later after she had gone to University and had come back for christmas. We agreed to go out for a drink and ended up there for 8 hours. It all went from there really, and now been together nearly 9 years and married for 4.5.
What did you first notice about him/her?
First impression was "wow, you're hot" Not one thing in particular, it just felt like I was looking at my perfect women. When I got to chat with her, I found that she was caring and perfect inside too. To me I struggle to see how she can better herself.
What is their best quality you appreciate?
The ability to get me through anything life throws at us. She is so calm, and always thinks logical and calmy when any problems arise. She is also the best Mum to our 2 kids!0 -
I met my SO on MFP
I noticed he spelled well, and he actually knew how to write intelligently.
I appreciate so many qualities, its hard to choose my favorite-- his caring nature, how he is willing to stay up chatting with me late into the night while I finish up papers, his humor, his deep philosophical mind, and so much more.0 -
strip club her name is nikki - she doesn't know were an item yet :PP0

Met on a website called OkCupid he had a really weird profile and it just drew me in, moved in on our first date, got married a year later and we're still going strong XD 0

I met her at work and it was love at first sight. We've been together for almost 2 years now and we still work together and live together with no problems 0

We met online. Lived 400 miles apart. It was love at first sight for both (even with me at my highest weight, he always thought me beautiful), we talked marriage on our first date. Saw each other every other weekend for 2-1/2 years, waiting for my daughter to graduate and then I moved (and we married) 2 years ago. Together almost five now, married for almost two of those. Have never had a fight to this day. Neither has ever doubted that we would grow old together from the time we connected. It was just meant to be.
I love so much about him, but his devotion is what still awes me ... he saw me through some very rough years with several health problems, including cancer, before we even married and from a distance of 400 miles (6 hrs drive each way). Never blinked.
I wish for everyone what we have. Didn't find him until my late 40s ... after a really terrible first marriage.
Don't settle! Your perfect match is out there.

Thank you both for your service. I have a soft spot for those who serve our country. :flowerforyou:
I met my fiance in our American Sign Language class in college. He dated a girl who was deaf and learned sign language. I was just super interested in ASL.. I remember texting my mom the first day when he walked in, saying "MOM! Gorgeous guy, long hair, nice arms, beautiful teeth - and he has a camo backpack."
Ahhh, yeah. A handsome one, he is. Love him to pieces. 0
