    Ooh, i love telling people how i met ny hubby :-)

    I was in a dead end relationship for over 3 years and wanted to get out but wouldnt find the right way to do it, well my mum and dad moved to Spain to open a bar in Jan 06, and i decided to surprised my mum for mothers day with sonera sneaky help front my dad!! So i got out there and my mum freaked, lol, never seen her cry so much!we went back to the bar and they introduced ne to their friends and that was where i met lee, i never believed in live at first sight but he bowed me over!!

    I was only out there for 4 days so we spent as much time with each other as we could and i cried all the way to the airport and on the plane home! As soon as i got home i called my mum and dad again and told them it wasn't working between me and my ex and that i wanted to come to Spain so i packed all my stuff up and after the longest week of my life i mo ed back out!!

    A month later i was pregnant and 6 years down the line we have 2 gorgeous kids and have been married for 2 years this April!

    Thats my little love story :-) xx

    I met my boyfriend of almost two years on a video game actually :)! Found out he lived in Northern California, so he drove 8 hours south to come visit me and we met up in Hunnington (sp?) and ever since then we've been seeing each other as much as possible through the long distance barrier.

    This March we're moving in together!

    I met my wife in high-school.....we were friends back then......she helped me with girlfriend problems, I helped her with boyfriend problems.....we were very good friends.

    When we started at university 4 years later we rented a flat together and shared it as roommates.......at some point we became attracted to each other and the rest is history. We have now known each other for 21 years - been living together for 17 years - been a couple for 16 years and been married for 10 years.

    Doing online research for a mutual friend, one night, the friend asked me to help another friend find some information. I was actually pretty snarky about it ("What am I, your personal reference librarian?"), but answered the guy's message and found what he was looking for (which turned out to be a topic that interests me, too). Three years later, I was cleaning out my messenger list, messaged him to let me know if he wanted to remain on my list, and we started talking. Yesterday, we celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary, and we have a beautiful son together. :)

    Online, really. I was going on a summer school at the university I was due to start at. He was a mentor there, and I was a very shy person so I contacted all the mentors beforehand so I wouldn't be as scared when I got there. We got chatting, and when I turned up on the day he was the first person I properly met.

    I meet my partner at the gym.
    I was working on the gym floor and my job was to talk to people and check they are ok. So i decided to go up and talk these 2 men because I thought one of them was cute. So after 10mins I found out that the cute ones friend was the one I wanted to talk to.
    I then spend 6 weeks flurting with him before he asked me out. We have been together for 12 years and looking to start a family.
    Couldn't be happier

    I met my husband while serving a mission in Ontario, Canada for the church I attend. We were both going home the same day. He was going home to Alberta, Canada and I was going home to Arizona. A month later(April) I found out that he was going to be in Utah the same time I was so we spent and few days together and then I took him to Arizona for a week. Then he went back to Alberta, Canada and then in June I went up to visit him for two weeks and he proposed to me the day before I went home. We were married in October, so here we are almost 20 years later with 5 children, a dog, 2 cats and a snake. **A note I must add is when I left Ontario I said, "I will never live in Canada again" - never say never!

    I met my BF six years ago while I was working in the emergency room...I took care of him because he looked pretty intimidating and no one really wanted to start his IV. I saw him there over the next month (he has a genentic kidney disorder) and one day he slipped me a note asking to get to know me. Six years later and he still makes me smile with his silly notes.
