A guy I met at a party invited me over for a BBQ at his place with him and his friends and he didn't own a BBQ. Husband was his friend. Husband cooked me lunch and made me a coctail. Husband won.
I love this!0 -
He was getting drunk every night (after the breakdown of his first marraige) when his favourite haunt in central London was closed for a few weeks for a refurb. When it reopened I statred and was pulling the pints for him. 10 days later we went out, we spent Xmas together 4 months later and married 18 months later. Weve just celebrated 21 yrs of marraige.

We met playing a the online video game World of Warcraft. in 2007 lol. I had never really been into video games. I saw my sister playing it and thought it looked cool, so I had to try it. A year later, I was hooked. He joined the guild I was in and we started talking a little. We talked for several months and both realized we were head over heals already. "dated" online for 2 years, then I moved back to Arizona to be with him. I moved here in September 2009. We married in April 2011.0

We met through POF.com. The first time we hung out I was in such a bad mood that i really didn’t even want to shop up, but i’m not good at bailing on people, so I planned on just taking a nap instead of actually watching a movie. I had no intention on dating him or seeing him beyond this first time. But we hit it off right off the bat, after only 5 months of dating, we got married.0

At Waffle House in 2001. He was getting off work and I was leaving a club.
His group of friends and my group of friends ended up there at the same time almost every Saturday night for a year ,so we sat together and all got to know each other. A year later we went out, (2002). Two years to the day after that we got married (2004). He has been my best friend ever since.0 -
My Fiance sold me my Dodge Charger. Then he stalked me for 5 years. Im not joking. He friend requested me on FB and always found reasons to come and see me or hang out. I once did a thing on FB where it shows you who visits your profile most and he was the #1 person, even though he never talked to me on FB. Anywho, I called him up after I broke up with my ex for some drinks since I knew he was single and I liked him, and weve been together for 2 years and are getting married on Aug 17th!0

I met him on MFP.
I met my boyfriend on here also
we started talking on here and little by little feelings started to grow ^_^ he came to visit me (he lives in south carolina and i live in texas) and while he was here we made it official. It is long distance but distance means so little when someone means so much. He is the absolute sweetest dorkiest guy I've ever met and I love it. So glad i decided to sign up for this site. 0 -
Met my sweetie through a friend, neither one of us thought hey that's the one as a matter of fact we both were thinking yea no. lol I was a single mom with no job in college and he was an ex con attending NA meatings. We ended up hanging out a lot becuase those awkward "I like this person" feeling wasn't there. When my kids whent to visit their dad out of state we started to get closer, he held me when I cried over missing them (it was the first time I was away from them for any leangth of time) and then one night he asked me out..... Me being me and being afraid of commitment even 2 years after my divorce told no thanks and that I would keep that in mind if I decided I wanted a relationship..... gah he still teases me about that... a year later and my girls helped him pick out my enagement ring (becuause obviously I changed my mind... well he kept at me unil I did anyway) ^_^ He is seriously my champion and best friend, and I don't know what I would do with out him.0

A friend of mine met him at a bar and said we would get along because we both really love Jack Daniels.. he added me on facebook and we hung out a few days later at a bar with a big group of my friends, not as a date or anything.. just to hang out. I was fresh out of a long relationship and didn't want anything to do with another one. I pretty much ignored him at first, he became friends with my friends and we all hung out for about a month until I realized he actually did like me more than just someone to drink with (and by realized, I mean he had to spell it out for me because im oblivious).. so we decided to go to the movies without all of our friends and see how it went, then we ended up going to a bunch of concerts together because I didnt have many friends that listen to the same music as I do. We've now been together for 4 years and I'm not even sure when we actually became a technical couple. Now I couldn't imagine being with anyone else

I met my significant other through my now ex-best friend. She had met him almost 2 months earlier through a mutual friend of his and hers the day before she and I were going to spend the weekend at the beach. Needless to say she didn't talk about anything or anyone else that whole weekend but him. She knew she wanted to make a move on him but was unsure how to do it. About 2-3 weeks later he invited her along with about 2-3 other friends out to celebrate his birthday. She tried to flirt with him but he wasn't responding. She and I had a long talk about it and she said the next time she was alone with him she would make a formal move. Turned out the next time he wanted to hang out with her was when she and I were planning to go to the movies so she invited him along. He too had his best friend at the time with him so my friend told him that his friend could be set up with me. She made a move that night and they started dating for a little bit. The following weekend his best friend made a move on me and we started dating, but after 2-3 weeks he moved to Florida and I haven't seen or spoken to him since. My guy and I started to get closer right after his friend moved and I invited him over to my house one day when my parents were gone and he made a move on me.cfrom that day and for the next 5 months we were sneaking around behind my ex-best friend's back. He even tried to break up with her at least twice and she wouldn't let him. About almost a month before we came clean about our relationship to everyone she was still telling everybody she and him were still together. By that time most people knew he had moved on and were probably suspicious it was with me but didn't say anything until we decided to. The last time I had any serious conversation with my ex-best friend was when she called me almost a month after we went public with our relationship and called me out on being with him when she was with him. We had a huge fight and except for a couple of awkward run ins we haven't seen or spoken to each other for at least 11 years. I am still with my significant other after all of that and through social media I can tell that, even though she currently has a boyfriend, she believes my significant other is the one who got away.0

Through a mutual friend. I'd known the mutual friend for about 7 years. Met the current boyfriend the very night that I broke up with my X. We became instant BFFs, literally hung out nearly every day for about two months with ZERO flirting. Went on a camping trip over the 4th of July, hooked up, and have been dating ever since. Haven't spent one night apart since the first time we hooked up, lol. AWWWWE SO CUTE!!0

Even though this is an old thread I will respond.
I met the bf coming up on 4 years ago at a crappy bar in a small town during their annual Halloween party. After the first couple of fights broke out my roommate and I became separated and I spotted this handsome fella I had seen there once before sitting at the bar alone. Having been getting my fill of liquid courage I meandered up to him and took a seat and introduced myself. We hit it off well enough. There were a few interruptions but it was nice just sitting and talking to him. At the end of the night we went back to a place that had a giant ball pit and slides where they used to do kid's birthday parties. It had been closed for a while and was attached to a Mexican Restaurant where some old friends of mine new the owner who was liberally giving away shots of Cabo Wabo while we were all running around like crazy people. That night was so much fun and one I will never forget.0 -
