    Long story, so bare with me. It's worth it though, it's a good one!

    So, he was my college math professor. We had a mutual friend who liked to "push butttons" just because. The mutual friend told me that the professor was saying things about me that were inappropriate. I sent him an email explaining what I heard he's said, and that it was NOT okay with me. I started skipping class and barely scraped by with a C.

    Next semester I showed up to play volleyball with this mutual friend, and the professor showed up and told me the mutual friend had invited him to join our team. I contemplated quitting, but decided I liked volleyball more than I disliked him, so I stayed. I thought I'd just make it hell for him so he'd quit. Well, it's been 9 years and he's still on the team. And my husband of 5 years and father of my 2 children! :-)

    BTW - I also found out he never really said anything about me to our mutual friend! The friend was just trying to get me riled up!

    Online, by chance. I was on stumbleupon.com (look it up) and posted the link to my profile on mysterygoogle (look it up) so people would ask me questions. My boyfriend happened to be on Mystery Google and had come across many people's links to their stumbleupon, but skipped them. For some reason, he decided to click on mine. He got to asking me questions, and even stood up for me before I knew his name. I asked him to make a profile, so he did. Later we exchanged AIM names and chatted on IM for a few hours. Two days later he put up this blog about me (PM me if you want it, it's really long lol) and I fell head over heels. 2 days after meeting (January 15th 2010) we decided to be in a relationship. He was in CT and I was in FL. He eventually came to visit. My parents LOVE him. So, in December 2010 I moved up here to CT to live with him. Couldn't be happier. We hardly ever argue. We work together. And we never get tired of each other. I love him so very much <3

    at work! He is a manager at The Home Depot, and I had a part-time job there at the paint counter. Taboo... it was very exciting to "come out" as a couple after I left that job, even though the rumors had been floating around for months!

    I met my bf/soon to be husband in a musical that we were both in. He had one of the lead roles and I was in the chorus. The choreographer and I were friends at the time, so she hooked us up. We've been inseparable ever since, and we're almost at our 1 yr :)

    My freshman year of high school. He was my best guy friend for 7 years. So we know everything about each other. We have been together 7 months now. And he accepts my 8 month old daughter as his own. He's a wonderful man. <3

    College dance 2 weeks after he'd been dumped by his GF of 4 years and I'd been dumped by my BF of 2 years. Got along great, saw each other every day; didn't start dating, but kept in touch though we both got tangled up in other relationships. I became adept at stalking him because I knew I was going to marry him one day. The eyes over the windowsill, random e-mails from anonymous senders, the creepy person under the bridge... I kept it subtle, so as not to arouse suspicion and scare off my prey.

    Another 2 years along, and we had deja vu. My BF left me and his foolish GF broke it off within 2 weeks of each other. Bwahaha!!! I moved in for the kill. I literally made a 3 1/2 hr trip from my folks house to my apartment, stopped long enough to feed the cat and shower, then drove another hour to rescue my "friend" at his place in the city. We were married a little over a year later and are almost 8 years strong :)

    BTW ... JK about the stalking... it's just the story we enjoy telling strangers :)

    We lived on opposite ends of the Same Street ( he on the West end and me on the East end) in a Very Small town. He was living on the property of a married couple ( friends of his). The wife had been coming over to where I was living to exercise one of our horses. She took every opportuinty to put us together socially (invite me to dinner and he would be there ,etc.) Finally we all went out on a double date to a movie in a nearby small town ( we saw Sleepy Hollow). Soon after he made us all dinner and I stayed behind and we talked well in to the night. I knew I had found someone special as he made me laugh and he loved animals as much as I did. We became fast friends and have been together ever since. That was over 12 yrs ago and this December we will celebrate our 11th Wedding Anniversary. Life with my husband is never boring! We do a lot of laughing . Our relationship started out as friends and grew in to much, much more. I feel truely Blessed.
