    1984, my friend begged me to go to this party to meet this guy that they thought was so right for me. ( I had a boyfriend at the time that I was trying to get rid of and was not interested in getting another so soon). I agreed to stop by the party for a little bit, meet him, wasn't thrilled and then the boyfriend i was trying to get rid of comes up the street ( I had told my parents NOT to tell him where I was but they couldn't help themselves) and all my friends were like get on Joe's motorcycle and take off. He was running to the store.....

    He asked me out after that and I said no but then saw him go down the street on his bike with another girl and you know how that is, he all of a sudden looked different to me. The next time he called, I went.....three years later we married and tomorrow we celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary. We were 21 when we got married and we still laugh, act like teenager and live life to it's fullest, we just added our two children to the mix and enjoy every minute of it.....

    8 months ago on line. LOL...
    I've been married before and can honestly say that I never knew what true love was until I met my boyfriend now.
    He's sweet, loving and not only loves me but my teenage kids as well... (now if you have teenage kids you know that's a keeper right there lol)

    Lol I'm a teenager myself so I can think XD glad it worked out :)

    I don't think I've met mine yet...........................I have loved and lost, but I don't think I've had the TRUE love experience.

    and I'm getting too old to go there :blushing: :blushing:

    Never too old!

    In my classroom. He was my student. :) He showed up right at exactly the right moment for both of us. One week before or after and neither one of us would have been ready. These things work out exactly as they need to.

    Also, I'm in adult education and NOT a child molester.

    When I was in high school students dated teachers and some of them got married. If was no big thing. When my older sisters were in high school the drinking age was 18 and the teachers and seniors would go to the bar after school. Imagine if that happened today?


    As for me and my hubby, he was my boss at my first job out of high school. I was 17 (just a week shy of 18) and he was 31. We've been together 22 years.

    I haven't...yet. :sad: Either that, or I have met him and missed it somehow. :ohwell: I'm hoping he's still out there somewhere, though.

    At a bar, he was a friend of a friend and I was married (not in a good marriage but trying to pretend it wasn't so bad). Whenever I'd go out w/ my girlfriends, he'd be out with his friend so we became buddies too. When it was too hard to hide the fact that my marriage was crap, I asked for a divorce and then realized that I had feelings for him. We've been together for over 9 years, married for 7 and have 3 beautiful daughters together and he's been there to raise my daughter from my first marriage.

    I haven't met him yet...and at 44 it's not looking likely that I will :(

    You can be happy alone (I am and I'm 17) but you're not too old

    I met my husband when I was 15 and he was 17. We had Geometry together. We dated for a summer and then he went off to college and we broke things off amicably. Then, 10 years later, I was staying with my parents for the summer and he happened to be in town staying with his folks. We ran into each other, sparks flew, and 6 months later we got married. :)

    Awesome story :)

    I met him when I had quit looking for love.

    We were set up, but not ahead of time. I was having a beer with one of my friends and her boyfriend, and he called the boyfriend to see what he was doing. The boyfriend encouraged him to come meet me.

    The rest is history. We will celebrate 9 years in October.

    Oh yeah... I tried for three weeks to run him off after I met him, but he was patient and persistent. And still is.

    I'm glad he is!

    That's easy to say at 17. People have been saying that to me since I was in my early twenties. Get back to us when you're 30 or older and still single, hun. :wink: I want kids (at least one biological) and my bio clock is ticking loudly. Some would say to just go pick a donor. To them I say, that route is not for me. It's very important in the development of a child to have both parents present and active in their life (provided they are mature, responsible adults with good morals). I want a good daddy to be present and active in the life of OUR child.

    I was 21 and he was 18...I threw a party at my apartment and he ended up being ther cuz a friend of a friend of a friend invited him. I, however, was much more wrapped up in the fact that I 1) was having fun w my best friend that I hadnt seen in too long and 2) had invited this cute guy from my school :) the cutie from school went home before the rest of us were done having fun and I finally started noticing my future "love of my life" was flirting with me :) drunk n foolish me decided it was the perfect time to just make out with him as everyone else went to bed. I hope u don't get the wrong impression of me bc this is the first time I ever acted this promiscuous. The next day he got my number and now we've been together for over a yr!!! he is the most amazing, loving, caring, guy ever <3

    That's so cute :) xx I don't think I'd ever like a younger guy though... don't know why.

    That's what I thought!!! Lol. But ya just never kno what's gonna happen :)
    It's so nice of you to reply to everyone btw! :))

    In an Alaska Yahoo chat room (2003)
    I was joined a volunteer group up there for the year and he was in the Army, stationed in Fairbanks.

    In a psych ward, 6 years ago. We both worked there. I worked on the adult schizophrenic unit and was being attacked by a huge male patient. I pressed my body button, which alarms the staff & safety. He was the first response from another unit and probably saved my life. ( i was being choked and was starting to see black spots) My name tag fell off and he picked it up "to learn my name." A few days later, he gave it back to me and asked if I wanted to go out sometime.

    This is so awesome!!

    We worked at the same hotel for a year and a half and never met until one night a bunch of coworkers got together after work for drinks. He asked me out a few weeks later. He was 31 and I was 26. We've been together now for 9 years, married 5 years in October.

    well done! <3

    When I was 16. We dated for two years and were engaged to be married when he was relocated to the U.S. After 6 months apart I lost faith and we broke up. I eventually got married to someone else, moved to the U.S., had children, and got divorced. Fast forward 20 years... my biggest regret in life was losing faith and giving up on our relationship. My friend encouraged me to look him up and so I did. After nearly two years of trying to locate him we finally made contact. That was over 1 1/2 years ago. Since then, he has relocated and we now live together and are planning our happily ever after. :happy:

    Yay that's awesome!! :)

    I met Hubs almost 15 years ago (Nov 1997) in a night club of all places! Wasn't looking for anything but he came up and started dancing with me and bought me a couple drinks and we chatted and exchanged numbers. He called me at 9am the next morning and I had to cuss him out because he gave me a hickey! We were practically inseparable for the next few months so we decided we might as well move in together and start sharing expenses. We've had our ups and downs like all couples but are still going strong all these years later!

    Another night club meet! <3x

    We kind of met on twitter. There was a group of us who tweeted about the Phoenix Coyotes and the ownership situation. Well before a game I went to dinner with a friend and some of the other people from twitter. He was there and it was instantaneous feelings for me. We started texting and finally went to a few games together and then became a couple. We first met 2 years ago come Octobor and made it official that December. We moved in together a year ago and that's the story.

    Cool! :)

    14 years ago at a keg party in college - I know what you're thinking - SO romantic! ;-)

    I guess it doesn't matter where we met because it was really love at first site and we've never been apart since.

    I like the story haha and yeah it is romantic!

    Sometimes I wonder if my last boyfriend was my true love. We had a really intense relationship and when we broke up it was absolutely crushing. Like part of my soul died. I've never had that with anyone else. But I keep telling myself that my true love isn't going to bring me down. He's going to respect me and encourage me.

    When I was 15 (1995). He was a Sophmore and I was a Freshman. I was oblivious to his stares across the lunch room and passing in the halls, and he would remind me of the dress code...even though he really loved my mid drift shirts, mini skirts, thigh highs and mary janes! Lol! It wasn't till the end of my Sophmore year that he we really got to know eachother. My best friend at the time lived across the street from him and he came to a party at her house. And there was was where it began. And here we are almost 17 years later, still as much in love as we were all that time ago, married with 5 amazing beautiful kiddos! Ahhhhhh LOVE!

    Sweet story! :)
