    Met at school over 20yrs ago and were good friends. Eventually got together when we were 25 and both coming out of long term relationships. Within a month he had moved in, then got married 2.5yrs later. We just renewed our wedding vows on our 10th Anniversary in June and now have 2 gorgeous kids together :love:

    When I was a moderator on a msn chat room, pre-transition and she has stuck by me through my transition, disability, bad health and everything! I love her to bits and couldn't have found a more perfect match. This will be our 9th holiday season together and 3.5 years since we got married. Longest relationship I have ever been in and things are still feeling great :)

    Epic. So, who called who? :P

    In a forum.

    When she became of legal age, I bought her an airplane ticket and she left home.

    It's not as bad as it sounds. :ohwell:

    7 and a half years ago we were both working for a cleaning company... he had just gotten transferred to my building from another... we became friends because we had similar interests... He told me after about 2 months of hanging out as friends that if we weren't working together, he would totally date me. 3 days later, at our usual hang out spot, we held hands. Later that night we kissed. 2 weeks after that he found another job, and we've been together ever since. :) Been married for just over a year now and I love him more and more everyday. :)

    He picked me up in a club! :love: I used to go with my friends and he'd go with his.. I went there all the time and apparently so did he and we finally met one night :smile: He wrote his number and email on a napkin and gave it to me. I kept it in my dresser for a few days but then threw it out, thinking it was fun to meet someone but naaah.. then two weeks later I was sitting around bored and wished I had kept the info. He had a weird name (which was part of his email address as well) so I remembered it! Emailed him.. we emailed back and forth and he asked me out. So that was it :)

    I'd been around my hubs during my childhood since he lived down the street from a mutual friend, and he'd come out to play with us. Went to different schools until highschool. I distinctly remember us chatting on AIM late one night about the people we were 'lovesick' about. He then says, "You'll find the right person some day, even when you're not looking for him. You're too pretty to be alone."
    7 years later, he's still my sweetie pie. <3

    At my uncle's funeral. I was 12 years old. First thing I ever said to him was "I am going to marry you someday". We married 11 days after I turned 19.
    January 11, 2012 will be our 20th wedding anniversary.

    My exhusband I met through dancing. He used to be a professional dancer(yeah, I hit the jackpot.). I was taking swing dance lessons during the swing revival(way before Dancing with the Stars made ballroom dancing popular again) in the mid 90's. He was the best student in the class.Little did I know he had a background in ballet, jazz, and actually tap danced with Savion Glover!

    I thought he was full of himself..although a great dancer and was embarrassed to be partnered up with him because I was sure he would think I was the suckiest dancer ever partnered with him(which I am sure I was!). I projected in my head that he thought I was awful and decided he was a dance snob since he was soooo reserved dancing with me. At a swing dance club he asked me to dance. I was pretty sure he only asked to be nice and because I was in class. Well, after our dance I didn't want him to feel obligated to ask me to dance again so I ran off the dance floor(like Cinderella!) Well, later I found out he was nervous and liked me and thought I was a great dancer.

    Unfortunately we are now divorced but are still good friends. He has our 6 yr old son this holiday and am about to leave home to visit him and our son in the burbs.

    My current boyfriend and father of my now 6 month old.. I met through..ugh...craigslist 3 years ago. (I Hate admiitting that!)

    at the pool. i used to see him around school-- he seemed like a really cute and shy person.

    over the summer, i was tanning and reading beside the pool, when he and a group of his friends came by. soon after, my cell phone rang, and as i leaned sideways to reach for my purse, my pool chair fell over BACKWARDS :(

    feeling extremely flustered and embarrassed, i plastered a huge smile on my face and pretended nothing happened; a last ditch effort to put forth a dignified facade.

    soon after, he came over and commented on my bravery for still sitting on the same pool chair! went on a date the next day, and we're about to celebrate our 6 mo anniversary soon. I'm spending Christmas w/ him and his family :]
