    I met my husband at church and I swear I heard God telling me that this was the man I was going to marry. We got engaged 3 months later and married 3 months after that. It was rocky, especially since he has 3 boys, and while I regret it was so quick and I was so young (I was 26 and he was 31) I wouldn't change a thing. We are looking forward to our "couple" time when the boys leave in a few years - they will all be in HS officially next year (Senior, Junior, and Freshman). I can't wait to see them start their new lives, but I would kick their *kitten* if they did what my husband and I did.

    :) I definately love your story! And I believe that the Lord definately can tell you if someone is your mate! Congrats on your marriage and kids.

    My youngest son is graduating this month and he will be going to UNT in August. My oldest graduated last year, joined Air Force and is getting married in July!

    After Aug. it will just be me and my hubby for the first time in 20 years. Well us and our furr babies :) I'm excited but really nervous at the same time.

    Even though Branden and I graduated together from a fairly small school- graduating class of 94- that is not where I met him. In fact I had moved to that school half-way through my junior year and never even met/talked to him by the time we graduated. Different circles i guess :)

    We met the August after gradutation... and it was pretty interesting. Branden has a fairly nice camaro, and I happen to love older cars... even though it is only a 3rd gen and a '91 it doesnt have that super smoth sleek look of now doays camaros, and I loved it.

    Well we were hanging out in a parking lot, a bunch of friends and myself, and had had a feel shots so we felt pretty loose. He pulled up in his car, he knew one of my friends, and I walked up to talk to his buddy who was in the passenger seat. I knew his buddy. Anyways Jeff, his buddy, had just gotten his nipples pierced and had to show me. Well being me, drunk, and extremely in love with my chest... I of course said that mine were not pierced and asked if they want to see. Branden piped up with a quick yes, and we havent really been apart since. 5 years, two kids, and lots of later we are getting married in October!

    Awww I've read every single one of these and all these stories are SO CUTE.

    I met my significant other in Vegas of all places! haha I went on a Vegas trip with some girlfriends and my boyfriend at the time was super possessive and kept calling me and saying I was a horrible girlfriend for going to vegas so I drunkenly told him to piss off, we're done. My friends were hanging out at a bar talking to some Australian guys but I was sitting a few feet away, on the brink of tears because of my boyfriend's stupid drama. One of the Australian guys approached me and asked me what was wrong and I completely poured out my soul to this stranger. We ended up kissing later that night and when I went on another trip to Vegas that next month he was still there and we hung out the majority of the time. We ended up keeping in touch even after he went back to Australia and we would always confide in each other about our horrible relationships and bad dates. One day he got into a pretty bad car accident and when he woke up in the hospital he said he realized that life is too short not to take chances and going for the things he wanted. Apparently he wanted me because shortly after that he told me he was in love with me and we would find a way to make it work. We've been together a year and a half and even though we go months without seeing each other I wouldn't dare be with anyone else because he and I are perfect for each other and I've never been happier with anyone else. Let's hope for a ring soon so we can actually be in the same country for longer than 3 months lol.

    Added a pic just cuz he's cute haha

    well...she was my exes best friend. on my weekends off i would get to go out w/ 3 pretty girls. they had a 3rd friend that would tag along as well. i called them my angels and they called me Bosley. i would take care of them so nothing got out of hand. my wifes bf at the time didnt know how to handle his liqour so he'd get hammered and a few times i would make multiple trips to my truck to get each of the girls out and carry them upstairs. my ex started seeing her ex when i was at work....my wife and the 3rd told me b/c they liked me more than her. my ex and i had a huge disasterous break up...the light at the end of the tunnel was an oncoming train.

    i was single then...my wife asked if i wanted a place to lay my head. she knew i had an apt....but staying with her was an opportunity i couldnt pass. my ex became crazy and would drive by my wifes apt.


    we've had our rough spots. but we had our honeymoon in the Medit Sea (12 day cruise) never looked back and now have a 14mo son.

    she is my best friend and we can carry a convo with very little words b/c we share "same braincell technology". rough hiding secrets since we can read each other.
