Your Love Story

My fiance and I met when we were both suckered into being a "wingman" for our friends. My friend was asked out by his friend but she was nervous about going out one on one so she told him she was bringing a friend (me)

So she told me what she told him and that I HAD to come and my fiance's friend did them same (so he had to come along)

Those two never went out again, but my fiance and I have been together for 8 years this June and are getting married in August

Hmm... shades of "When Harry met Sally"

I love you is 8 letters, but so is B.U.L.L.S.H.I.T.

Met my husband when we were 17 years old in a college freshman English class. I had just broken up with my HS sweetheart of 4 years and saw this amazing boy with wet hair and a bright pink and green bathing suit and tee. He was late to class because he was surfing. He sat behind me for 3 weeks and I braided my hiar over and over again trying to get his attention. One day he left class in a hurry and forgot his art portfolio. My frind Dawn dared me to "steal it" in an effort to meet him which I did When i got home, I looked in the phone book (this was 1990) and realized that there were 6 people with the same name! I started calling from the top # until I got to his mother. We were going to meet the next day, so I coud return the book but I woke up with a huge zit and was so embarrassed that I came off like a snob. He didn't like me!

On Halloween, Dawn dared me to talk to him again (thank goodness for Dawn!). I did. We went on a date that lasted all day into the night. It was love at first date. He was shy and I wasn't, so I got him to kiss me at the top of a hill at sunset on our first date and we've been together ever since.

I later found out that all the people in the phone book were his relatives and they all have the same name AND they all attended the same college. WEIRD!!! We got married after graduation at age 22, have been married 19 years and have 2 teenagers.

Have hope! One (or many) bad apples really don't spoil the bunch. Love finds you when you least expect it!!!!

Met my wife 25 years ago. I was working as a Massage Therapist during the day and teaching TKD at night. She was referred to me for therapy after a car accident. She was a divorced single Mom with two little girls. I used to sit out in the lobby and chat with the two little girls while Mommy was changing in the Massage room. They were 7 and 5. Very cute. After about 8 months of weekly massages, we decided to get together after massage one night and grab a drink when the girls were at their Dad's house.

That led to a date. The second date, I asked her to marry me. She said yes and I have been happily married ever since. Those cute little girls are now 32 and 30 and we have had another little girl, who is now 20.

As far as past history -- That was a lifetime ago, I don't even think about it.

Omg your story is so adorable!! I love it

met my husband 25 years ago at a dance club when line dancing was really in. My friend had a date and I wanted to go out and went out by myself which was not like me at all but I knew some people there so I thought I would be ok. Met a man there that had gown up beside my girlfriend and she knew him and said he was a nice guy. Well he was and we had so much in common. He followed me home and called me the next day and we have been together since. My first husband was just like my neglectful wild self centered parents who never had time for me and it was a nightmare marriage. I guess I married what I grew up with. They were so mean to me about my weight and I was never that big but probably caused a lot of my overeating. This husband is nothing like them, dependable, there for me, supportive. Yep, there is hope so just stay out there and keep looking for a good guy! I am definitely blessed.

I briefly met my husband at a mutual friend's Xmas party. I hag gotten there early and there were handful of people around including him. As I proceeded to look at each of them (purely on a physical basis), I had crossed them off my list of potential guys ("No." "No." " No!!!").

Move forward 2 weeks later. Went alone to a small club that us so called "aging" hipsters used to hang out at. My only intention was to dance the night away when He showed up. He tried to talk to me a bit, asked if I need a drink, then asked me to danced to Madness's "One Step Beyond." I said why not? We ended up dancing all night long and he finally asked me for my number where I told him to ask my friends and totally blew him off even though I did invite him to my New Year's Eve party. The night ended and and he walked me home (I live in the city) 15 minutes away in the freezing cold. I told him he couldn't come up and as gentlemanly as possible, he said he just wanted my number so he could come to my NYE party. I had to smile to that.

Move forward a week later: December 31, 2000. He shows up late to my party and was surprised. I asked my BFF about him and she told me if he didn't like me, he wouldn't have come at all. He stayed until the end of the party where I walked him to his car, when I notice a baby seat in the back of the car. (ACKKKK!!! Kids? Why me? No thanks.) I had to back off a bit but then he explained that the baby seat where his sister's and that they had left behind. Whew!! Kissed him goodnight and said he'd like to call me again. I agreed.

Move forward 2 weeks later: I had changed phone companies in early January (land lines, remember those?) and forgotten the appointment so my phone was dead for over 2 weeks and I wondered why he never called me. I did have a cell phone but apparently I never gave him that number. I finally got the phone working when he eventually called and told me he had tried calling 12 times (I'm thinking "stalker") and had I not picked up that specific time, he knew I wasn't interested or had given him a bogus number. After that, I was knew I was smitten. We've been together for 13 years, married for 10. And he's the nicest, coolest, guy I ever known.

I'm such a geek. I met my hubby at an anime convention

My best friend and I started going to a local but huge anime convention after college, just so we were guaranteed to see each other at least once a year. A few years in, I wanted to also meet other people, since I was well into my work grind and rarely got out otherwise. So we chatted with people in the online forum for the con and made a 21+ meet up for drinks after getting our badges. Only 3 other people showed, and one of them was my future hubby. We hit it off right away, even skipping down the halls together because we were excited about being at the con in general (he was afraid he wouldn't get the time off work). It took us another month before we were able to go on a date, so it was warmer, he had shaved off his winter beard (hubba hubba) and we went and "speed racer". I was hooked. He was too, both of us full of shy nerdy awkwardness. Moved in together by december, and he proposed at the next convention.
We have been married now for almost 4 years and have 2 precious little ladies. Even those 4 years have had ups and downs, mostly due to circumstances beyond our control (he lost his job for a while when the economy crashed, My father became disabled and then died, I had trouble pregnancies) But we were together through it all and I still completely love him and couldn't imagine life without him.

I have met my husband in a ditch. I was 16, now 39. Did CPR on him and it was love at first site (for me). Still today, we can't pass a few hours without talking.

I met my husband in college, way back in the day when there were separate dorms for men and women. I was supposed to go to the mens dorm to play cards with some friends and sat down in the lounge to wait for them. The lounge had a grand piano and there was this guy playing and singing to a crowd of interested females. It turned out he also played guitar. Nice looking guy and when he stood up, very tall (a plus for me I'm 5'10"). I waited out all the other girls talking into the wee hours. Then he used the worst pick up line ever,"do you want to come to my apartment and do my dishes?" Yep, he really said that! I thought it was just a line until I did go to his place and saw the piles of dirty dishes! Well I did them and we soon became inseparable. It hasn't always been easy, we've had a couple of rough patches. We have three children and 3 grandchildren.We will celebrate our 33rd anniversary at the end of May.

Are there colleges with coed dorms?!

I had no idea...seriously...the universities in my area all have male/female dorms (and I'm not just talking about the parochial colleges but state U)

Well yeah, they usually separate them by floor the sexes by floor or wings, but even at the very Lutheran school my son attended for year the dorms were co-ed
