    True story. I met my wife at her job. She was a teller and was 8 months pregnant. I told her that we needed to pick out a name for our baby. A month later I cut the umbilical cord and we have been together ever since. that was over 10 years ago. Married for 7. Baby number 2 is now 4 years old...BTW, she overruled me on naming baby Another Emmanuel...lol.

    I think message boards/chat rooms are just easier nowdays. A lot of people don't want the hassle. Don't want to go on blind dates.. blah blah. Chat rooms/message boards you really kind of get to know somebody(depending on how honest they are, usually if they ar elying you find out).

    Mine was a complete and total surprise, last thing I ever saw coming. I knew the distance would be so hard, but I literally didn't have a choice... I had to follow my heart.

    God bless the interwebs :)

    Short version of a long story...I was bartending at a brew pub, he was on a trip for work. He saw a billboard for the brew pub on the Pennsylvania Turnpike and thought, I can stop here for the night and have a good beer too. I'll stop there or I will go on too long :)

    LOL. Way back when i still lived with my parents, they left for a vacation, I would have parties. Small town so I knew everyone. A friend said a new guy just moved, I said bring him he can meet everyone. She brought him, I pretty much fell in love with him right away, was too shy to ask him out, but eventually we went on a date, and been together ever since. 13 yrs together, 11 married and 3 kids.

    I met my husband almost 6 years ago in a yahoo chatroom. Just chatting, not looking...and we started talking, met, moved in together, got married, have 16 month old twins now and he accepts my older kids as his own. He's an amazing man!

    We met at the local club I went to with all my friends. I was introduced to him by another guy I had met the night before with my GF. I was actually dating someone else but when i met my now hubby, i knew i was done dating the other guy, it wasn't a serious thing anyways, lol. After we met we were inseperable. We've been together almost 5yrs, married 3 and a half.

    My wife was my younger sister's dance teacher and we met at one of her recitals. I think I actually fell in love with my wife when I saw her dance for the first time that night.

    Aw, that is so sweet!!

    My story: Met hubby where they say not to pick anyone up...a bar. I honestly went into the whole thing thinking what the heck, let's just have some fun, but he had a whole 'nother mindset. Once I figured it out, I realized I was pretty crazy about him too and we were inseperable. Moved in together after a couple of months, went through some rocky times but survived, bought a house together almost 6 years ago then got married about 3 years later. Yeah, we're a little backwards. LOL! Still crazy about him after nearly 14 years together! :)

    I was bartending and he came in for a drink, which turned into a ride home, which turned into me moving in :o)

    I was travelling around Europe and had just taken a job in the Scottish Highlands. I went to Edinburgh for my weekend off and my hubby was the night security at the hostel I stayed at. We hit it off and he called me the following week to see if I'd come back to town. 3 weeks later I chucked in the job and moved into the hostel with him for the remainder of my VISA.

    Long story, so bare with me. It's worth it though, it's a good one!

    So, he was my college math professor. We had a mutual friend who liked to "push butttons" just because. The mutual friend told me that the professor was saying things about me that were inappropriate. I sent him an email explaining what I heard he's said, and that it was NOT okay with me. I started skipping class and barely scraped by with a C.

    Next semester I showed up to play volleyball with this mutual friend, and the professor showed up and told me the mutual friend had invited him to join our team. I contemplated quitting, but decided I liked volleyball more than I disliked him, so I stayed. I thought I'd just make it hell for him so he'd quit. Well, it's been 9 years and he's still on the team. And my husband of 5 years and father of my 2 children! :-)

    BTW - I also found out he never really said anything about me to our mutual friend! The friend was just trying to get me riled up!

    Online, by chance. I was on stumbleupon.com (look it up) and posted the link to my profile on mysterygoogle (look it up) so people would ask me questions. My boyfriend happened to be on Mystery Google and had come across many people's links to their stumbleupon, but skipped them. For some reason, he decided to click on mine. He got to asking me questions, and even stood up for me before I knew his name. I asked him to make a profile, so he did. Later we exchanged AIM names and chatted on IM for a few hours. Two days later he put up this blog about me (PM me if you want it, it's really long lol) and I fell head over heels. 2 days after meeting (January 15th 2010) we decided to be in a relationship. He was in CT and I was in FL. He eventually came to visit. My parents LOVE him. So, in December 2010 I moved up here to CT to live with him. Couldn't be happier. We hardly ever argue. We work together. And we never get tired of each other. I love him so very much <3

    he was my work trainer. he had a gf and wanted nothing to do with me. I can home after the first day of work and told my (then) roommate that one day, I was going to kiss him!! We woked together for 5 months before we even hung out. By then I had given up on him...we hung out... and haven't stopped!!
