    I met my boyfriend at a nursing home. He was visiting his grandma there and I was visiting my dad. When he first walked up I noticed his eyes they are bright blue. Later when we were inside he walked up and started talking to me. I believe it was love at first site. He makes me feel like no other man has. He's my best friend.

    Highschool. 10th grade. One of my best friends was dating his friend so we hung out a couple times in a group, he saw how awesome I am and we've been together ever since. Together for 10 years, married for 2 years. :-)

    I met my fiance at a New Year's Eve party a couple years ago. Neither of us wanted to go to the party and now we're both glad we did.

    I met my husband when we both worked at the cafeteria of our college. We didn't really know each other well at all, then one night just before finals week I made some comment to him about how super geeky he was, and we ended up talking for hours...things just took off from there!

    I am not dating but I have a nice guy friend I met him at the gas station in town. He has really encouraged me in my weight/eating journey. has been my biggest supporter through this process. He helps really keep me motivated in my losing the weight. to have a great friend like that in my life is far more rewarding

    I just got married last Saturday :) I met my husband through a mutual friend at a bluegrass concert. He says he knew I was his dream girl from the moment he met me. He asked for my number that night, we went on our first date 2 days later and he told me he was gonna marry me. Almost three years later and I'm his wife :)

    I met my boyfriend, Matthew, on "Plenty of Fish" (not something I like to admit but it's our story..). I would definitely have to say love at first sight. The moment I saw him I literally walked right up to him put my bag down beside him, wrapped my arms around his neck, said "Where have you been all my life?" and kissed him :) This is completely out of character for me, I tend to be pretty stand-offish until I know what a guy is all about... but with Matthew I just knew. Ever since that day we've been inseparable, now live together, and have recently had my finger sized and a ring choosen (let the waiting game begin, lol). It's been a year and a half. He's amazing and I am so lucky.

    met my hubby at a Best Buy. He was stationed in California, and i had just moved there for a job. He was walking the movie aisle and making fun of his friend and said "congratulation, wanna cookie?" anyways, he said this to his friend right as they were passing me. I said "i want a cookie" and he said "oh, i wasn't talking to you" and walked off. Anyways, his friend ended up explaining to him that i was flirting and he came back over to talk to me. went on a date that night and we have been together ever since. We have a 3 year old and our 4th anniversary is next month :)

    We were 10. I sent him a note in class. He made a 'maybe' box and checked it. I still have the page from my diary from 1984 saying I knew something was going to happy and that I loved him. (...again, we were 10.)

    We had mutual friends but never talked except one time when my necklace broke between classes and he helped me pick up the 30/30 cases that made up my necklace. (You can laugh.)

    First day of freshman year of college I was put in the wrong math class. I had to wait a few weeks to take a test to place me in another one. In the meantime I sat next to him because he was the only one I knew. It was Tuesday and Thursday nights from 6 to 9PM. I never took the test. We became good friends, but were dating other people.

    Second semester freshman year we didn't have classes together but bumped in to each other and found out we were both single. That night we were on the phone for 4-hours. I cancelled a date with a guy to see him that next night. It was to be a 'just friends' thing.

    We got engaged a year later and married 6-months after that. Been together 20-years, married 18 1/2.

    *The reason the necklace thing makes me laugh is because he’s a jeweler. Only seems fitting that we talked again over a necklace. ;)

    I was 4 and he was 8. His dad went to work for mine. When I was 15 he 'saw' me and knew I was the one he would marry, but he waited to make a move till I was 18. Meanwhile, I wished he would see me as something besides a little sister, but thought that would never happen. :love:
    I graduated hs, he asked me out in Nov, we started talking about marriage in Dec, he proposed in Jan, we made it official in Feb. and were married in Sept '02. :heart:
    Going on 10 years this year, and expecting our 5th child. :happy:

    I met my now husband 7 years ago at a New Year's Eve party at a mutual friends house. We are from the same town and I was in my senior year of high school, he had graduated a year before and was home for winter break. I knew EXACTLY who he was, captain of the football team, very popular, mega hottie, I was the shy girl for so long and finally started to come out of my shell. Several of my friends had asked him out or gone on dates with him here and there so I asked one of them about him, ha she said he was a good kisser so I went for him! We spent the next two weeks together non stop before he went back to college, I thought that he would be just a fling, I guess a part of me still was hung up on the fact someone like him could never be with someone like me. But there was just something about our chemistry. We talked on the phone for hours every night and he came back every weekend to see me, then a month later he asked me to be his girlfriend and we've been together ever since. We just got married last October! I truly believe he is my soul mate.

    My fiance and I met while in the military! Aaron and I met almost three years ago while stationed at Training Center Cape May in New Jersey. Aaron was a firefighter with the Coast Guard and I worked with the recruits that are in training at boot camp.
    It was the worst snow storm Cape May had seen in a very long time. On a January day last year almost 3 ft of snow blanketed the peninsula. Heavy ice and dangerous winds knocked out power in the surrounding areas for three days to two weeks! With my heat out and no way of moving my car, I asked my friend Aaron (and his roomate) if I could PLEASE take shelter at their house (luckily they had power the whole time!).

    The next day people were digging out, but my car was so covered with snow and ice I had to ask for help. Aaron always being the kind, hardworking, gentleman that he is, graciously offered to help me when no one else would. It took us 5 hours to free my car from the ice and snow and in payment I bought him breakfast (I guess what they say is true...the way to a man's heart IS through his stomach haha!). We talked all morning and had a great time. When we think back about that day we both agree that we definately felt the beginning of something truly special.


    After that cold, icy January day Aaron and I more or less became inseperable. We began a close friendship that turned into love 3 months later. We took each day as they came and cherished them, due to the fact that Aaron was moving to Virginia and my enlistment still having 8 months remaining. We decided that a long distance was worth the try and I am happy to say we have only become stronger because of it! Both he and I have learned so much about ourselves, each other and what we desire and deserve from this life.

    We got engaged on New Years Day 2011............and we are getting married in exactly ONE MONTH!

    I met my fiance through a friend. Her friend had actually introduced them cus she thought they'd be "the perfect match" and she wasn't into him at all haha We started talking online (I was 14, he was 16), started hanging out and became friends :wink: . Then he started dating someone and I was FURIOUS! We stopped talking, he went off to college and life went on. Then when I was a senior he IMed me (oh AIM how I miss you!), we started talking again, and we finally started dating! That was 7 years ago, we're getting married next June. It's funny to think that "friends" can turn into so much more :heart:

    I was getting a tattoo at a shop where I live when the lady asked her son to take a look... I like bigger guys and he was super sexy especially with his big blue eyes.... he told me to call him but I never did... didn't wanna seem creepy. One day he came into my work and started flirting with me and asked when my next day off was, needless to say after the next day we never spent a night apart in four years. Until last week when I went and visited my sister. We have been together over four years and have a son... currently trying for another... love at first sight is a definite yes

    I met my husband 31 years ago. He was a bartender at the bar my friends and I hung out at. It was love at first sight! And believe me, I tried very hard not to fall for him as hard as I did. I had just recently ended a nine year relationship (marriage). But there was something mesmerizing about him. He drew me in closer and closer to him, like a bee to honey. We both weren’t looking for a relationship. We were looking for someone to have fun with. What we got…well it was 31 years of bliss and we are looking forward to the next 31 years!
  • A Christmas potluck! I wouldn't say it was love at first sight but it was definitely attraction! Talked all night and have been dating since and that was over three years ago. Couldn't be much happier, we're terrific together!

    I was friends with his cousin, she introduced us. I don't believe in love at first sight, but it was definitely attraction at first sight.
