in Chit-Chat
Forgive me if there is other threads like this, but I think it would be cool to hear where other people met their spouse/fiance/gf/bf. :)

    I met mine through a mutual friend. We had never met because he lived in another country but we spoke online and one day I decided to just pay him a visit in Germany - 4 months later I moved to Germany and 3.5+ years later, we're still here and very happy :)

    lol don't tell anyone, but we met on Craigslist! it seemed unlikely at first because of our 15 year age difference, but we talked online for what felt like years! (it was only 2 months though) then we finally met up with our dogs at the park, and we've just had our first anniversary, on May 28th!!

    She went to University with my now ex. I think we met at her flat and she called me the wrong name on purpose for months. We hated each other.

    match.com. I also paid for 3 months, but he is the only guy I ever went past email stage with. Literally used the site for about 2 days. Met him a few days later. We are now married for 5 years, have two amazing kids.

    We met on Myspace, back when that was a thing, because I liked his profile picture of Mr. Gumby. 3 years later I went to England on vacation and we met in person, and here we are 5 years after that, married for a year and a half. I love the internet.

    Las Vegas. We met his friend in a club in the Bellagio....we hung out with them until 5 in the morning, exchanged numbers. 3 weeks later I flew to Denver to spend a weekend snowboarding. And we've been together for 15 months now. Happy as can be, still long distance though; but much shorter distance than Florida-Colorado.

    We met in an MSN chat room when my hubby was in the army, got engaged before meeting face to face while he was deployed in Iraq. Met each other for the first time while he was on emergency leave for his grandmothers funeral, which he missed and I did all his parts in the funeral after meeting his family BEFORE him. Married 1 month after he got back from deployment. Been married 9 years now!

    I met him through ICQ about 12 years ago. 10 years ago we met up, dated for a couple of weeks but he lived at the other side of the country and we were both young and poor so we gave it up as a bad job. Then about 18 months ago I caught up with him and we were both single for the first time since the last time and we lived just over an hour apart so we met up again and have been together ever since.

    I am currently trying to find a job nearer so I can move in with him (at his request).

    I waited a long time for this!

    I meet my husband in high school when I was 14. We started dating a year later. I was 15 and he was 17. He was my date for most of my school dances and prom. We've been together for 10 years total but we've only been married for 3 years, we just had our anniversary on June 5th.

    I was in pictures from his family reunions since before we were engaged. If we ever have children it is going to be funny explaining that to them.

    Oddly enough, online. Not on a dating site or anything like that. We lived half a world away from each other and were not looking to meet anyone. Pure fluke. It worked out alright in the end and 12 years later ..... :smooched:

    I was trying to get out of an unhealthy relationship and moved in with my best friend and her roommate who I had never met. Although I thought he was a total douche the first time I met him, he eventually grew on me and we've been together 4 years and engaged to be married!

    Senior year of high school- I was putting my books in my back seat after school and he walked by and said, "Hello Ashley!" in a pervy voice because I was bending over. We've been together for six years now and have a house together. Planning on getting engaged and married at some point too lol.

    Apartment complex 25 years ago. He lived in front...I lived in back. Saw him walking up steps every night of the week. He got home from work like...30 seconds before I did...and lordie, what a sight. I made sure there was no significant other and then asked him out. Been together ever since. :bigsmile:
