    We met in college. I was married and he was being a college bachelor but we were best friends in college and afterwards. When I got divorced we spent more and more time together and things just fell into place for us. We are still best friends. :)

    My husband and I were both recruiters. He was a Marine and I was Air Force. My first recruiting assignment, my office was next door to his. He actually scared the scrap out of me.....he was/is a big bad Marine....lol!!! For three years we changed assignments but always seemed to work next door to each other. We always said hi in passing but that was about it. Some horrible circumstances came to pass in my life and I became kinda stand-offish but some how he was able to penetrate through that and I got to know him and what a wonderful caring person he was/is. I actually asked him out on our first date and from that moment on we were inseparable........that was 8 years and three kids ago. :love:

    My Grandma was an alcoholic and his Mom was a bartender. We were 15. Been together ever since.
    That sounds like a country song.

    When I was in middle school & moved from WV to AZ but I kept in touch with my best friend. Eventually, we moved back to WV when I was in high school. My friend said she had a friend that she thought I would like. She showed him my picture & we messaged back & forth. He finally decided to travel 2 hrs to take me out.

    I was 18- a senior in high school & he had graduated a year before. We've been together ever since (almost 8 yrs) & have two beautiful children together. :smile:

    * kinda funny story: After we had been dating for a while he admitted that he had the biggest crush on my best friend but could never get anywhere because she wasn't interested in anything but friendship with him. I have to say I am glad he wasn't good enough for her :wink:

    I love this story.

    My SO and I met through mutual friends. We were both recently engaged and had the other person leave us, and our friends thought it was time to get back out there. He friended me on Facebook, we never stopped talking, and now I live with him. Still waiting on him to give me the ring....

    I met mine in college 21 years ago. He was my best friend, but I really did not "like" him back then. We dated briefly after college and then went our separate ways. 15 years later, I found him again on facebook. WE've been back together 2 years now.:bigsmile:

    I had just moved in town from out of state, new no one. Met a group of girls and they invited me to a party where Dh was going to also be. The whole way to the party they were talking about him. I had no clue who he was, even after I met him and was headed home! ha Anyway, they had planned on hooking us up, only I didn't know at the time. Even on the way home that night and they were asking what I thought about him I was like, "Who??" Um, the guy I had spent the last 3 hours talking to. ha
    We've been together 13 years and will celebrate our 10 yr wedding anniversary soon.

    AIM back in the heyday of it where you could search for friends and such.
    I met a girl on there who I became friends with, and she knew him from school.
    She introduced me to him on AIM... I was 15.
    We will be together for 11 years this February. Married for 4.

    Does he give you any trouble now, or 7th grade took care of everything?

    My cousin went to the same church as my husband and his family so I knew of him for years. I really got to know him because his sister and I both worked at Gold star chili and became best friends .. the first time she introduced me to him he literally took my breath away. he was the most handsome man I had ever seen. I was married to my ex at the time... well 3 years later after the marriage had fell apart and I was divorced . My now husband and I had become really good friends..one day I asked him out.. we were married 4 months later :) In March we will celebrate our 13th wedding anniversary.

    I met hubby at a dance club - one of those places "they" tell you never to meet someone you plan on having a serious relationship with. Ha! Well, we just celebrated 14 years of being happily paired up so :tongue: to "them". :wink:

    I worked in the gift shop of a high-end hotel. He drove the hotel courtesy van to the airport, which was accessed from the same hallway as the gift shop. Because it was a high-end hotel, he was dressed in a uniform very much like a military dress uniform. I was in love the second I laid eyes on him. Watched him go up and down that hall and thought we'd never meet, but one day he came in and bought some agate wind chimes, saying that they were for his brother's anniversary. It was a lie - he just wanted an excuse to come in and talk to me. I had to climb up on a chair in a dress to get them down LOL - sneaky little bugger. We just celebrated our 29th anniversary. And yes, he eventually gave ME the wind chimes.

    My husband and I met when we were 14. We were in Biology class together. He was so cute. :) We also found out our lockers were close together too. One day at the end of school he said how about we go the library (lame I know) We did, the next morning he picked me up (he could drive before me) the next morning for school and that was it. Married at 21 and have been for 38 years.
