I am just curious: where did everybody meet their boyfriend or girlfriend or spouse or partner? I am just trying to think of some new places to meet people, and thought I would ask you all!

    I know some people frown upon it but I met my husband online...On a site named "Tagged"...The way I look at it meeting someone online is no different than meeting them anywhere else...He lived in another state and we would have never met if not for the 'net...We lived an hour and a half apart and put a lot of miles on our cars (alternating weekends) and 9 months after meeting we were engaged...he transferred to my city and we have been married for a year (so far)...

    I've been witth my husband for 10 years, married for four... we are high school sweethearts and have known each other since 8th grade. Have you heard of meetup.com, its not a dating site, its a site where people get together with common interests, like photographers all get together or people who enjoy hiking organize a hike to do together, it would be a great place to meet someone wiith common interests :)

    We meet in 8th grade, I like his cousin at the time, he picked on me because he liked me.(silly boys :)). We had homeroom together our freshman year of high school and he sat behind me because the teacher put us in alphabetical order. Anyways we started talkin as friends I dated a few other guys here and there for a week here and a week there. I dated this guy for about 8 months and when he broke up with me my now hubby asked me out. we were 14 and 15 (almost 15 and 16) and we are now married. next month will be 5 1/2 years since we started dating.

  • I met my husband through Star Trek!

    Okay. I know this requires more explanation. It always does.

    I joined up with a local Star Wars fan club that has since gone defunct. We decided to break away and form our own Star Wars club, which has also since gone defunct. Around that time, my friends that broke away with me asked me if I wanted to join another club that was based on Klingons but technically multi-genre. I went to a few meetings, and the founder/head of the group, which was associated with IKF and StarFleet International, started flirting almost immediately.

    It took a few years, but I finally ended up going out with him, and a few months later, he proposed! We've been married four happy years, now.

    Kind of a funny story. I knew OF him in college. He was dating a friend of mine for years. After we graduated we went our separate ways. I started working at a jewelry store in a local mall, and he happened to be working security. He message me on facebook one day, and I hated him at first. I really thought he was a huge jerk! We started talking more and more, and now we're inseparable (minus the fact that he's in the army and 1 billion miles away currently)

    My husbands ex-wife introduced us LOL. I had just moved into the same apts and I was trying to set up my waterbed and his ex came over and introduced herself and said that she would ask her husband to put up my waterbed for me when he got off of work. So he came over and set up my waterbed. But it was awhile after that before we started dating. She cheated on him and left him for another man . We found we were going through alot of the same things and started hanging out. That was 26 yrs ago.......:smile:

    I met him at work ~ he was working part time for another photographer while establishing his own business. When he left he took me with him to work as his office manager / assistant & the rest is history. That happened 21 years ago! :heart:
  • I met mine online as well... Craigslist of all places. Frightening, huh?!?! Turns out we attended the same church and didn't know it!

    We've been together for 2 years and married for almost 1. Couldn't be happier!

    Online. We've been together for 12 years & married for 6 years next month. I have to say, I'm surprised to see how many other people met their spouses the same way!

    I met my wife at a hay ride, she turned out to be my sweetheart in high school and one of my best friends. I've eventually worn her down with my antics and my natural aversion to being a smart azz and about 1/3 of the days she can't stand me. One of these days she will most likely hit me in the head with a hammer to knock some sense into me. :-D

    I met mine through my best friend at the time (her brother) I knew her since I was 7 but never remember meeting her brother even though their mom says I did. Had a crush on on him when I did meet him at 14 but he showed no real interest till I was 18 I figure since he was 4 years older that's a good thing lol Been together for 14 years married for 13 :)

    I meet my husband kind of at work/coffee shop. On my way walking to work I would pass a coffee shop with a patio, he would be there every morning sitting outside with 3 of his co-workers! He started saying good morning to me...a few months later he asked me to have a coffee, then turned to lunches, then to dinners and now we are married for 5 years with two beautiful girls!! :smile:
