How did you meet your significant other?

Yahoo buzz.....The only thing good to ever come out of that stupid place.

Match.com --6 years ago :bigsmile: Married 4 years... I was joking just the other day, when one of their commercials came on, that out 19 month old daughter should, go on there,, and say I'm a match .com baby ...

Kinda knew each other in HS. Then found each other on plentyoffish.com. The rest is history!

we met on ebay...

ICQ instant messaging lol

I met my wife when she joined a band that a keyboard player and I had started after our previous project tanked. Actually, the keyboard player did all the work, put tons of ads on craigslist. She was the first singer to come try out. He took her on the spot, no real afterthought. I told him he was nuts. The one thing I'll never forget, though, was her boyfriend at the time eyeballing me like I was there to take her away from him. I had no idea why....I found her attractive, but was out to live the rockstar dream, have as much fun and chase as much tail as possible. Ultimately I guess he was right, but not at that time. We were in the band for over a year and a half and while her relationship with the other guy got worse, our on stage antics were starting to become more noticeable, even by family and friends. It took the right moment for her to leave him and has been with me ever since. We'll be married 2 years in September \m/

at church. simple and sweet. Been together 6 years now.

At work, he worked in IT and I in Personnel :-)

We had a college night class together (chemistry!) and I was hoping to get someone in the class to date me so I would have someone to walk me to my car, as the school was in a very sketchy neighborhood. When we met, we talked in my car for hours before we left for our homes. Turns out he was from my grandma's neighborhood, where I spent a lot of time, so we knew places and people, and had lots of funny stories about the old neighborhood. That was over forty years ago, we've been married since 1971:drinker:

I met him Salsa dancing. He kept asking me to dance and annoying me with questions like, "Are you married? Do you have children? Do you have a boyfriend?" When I was leaving, he stopped me and asked, "Are you leaving?" I said, "Yes. It is Thursday and I work tomorrow." Then he asked, "Where do you live?" I thought, "STALKER ALERT!" I replied with just the name of the town. Then he said, "I live there too!" and recited his entire street address down to the condo number.

He turned out to be my direct downstairs neighbor for over 3 years, and we had never met before. He started teasing me about being such a noisy upstairs neighbor, so I told him that I had just bought a house that day and he wouldn't have to put up with me much longer.

Then he offered to help me fix up the house. But I am very handy myself, so I said, "No thank you." Then he offered to help me move. I said, "Here is my business card. Call me this weekend!"

Well, he helped me move as promised. He's helped me with a ton of home improvement projects. He is still my salsa dance partner. We were married 1 year after we met and are going on our 8th wedding anniversary this summer. We also have 2 great kids.

ROFL! I'm Filipino and my husband is White.

My hubby is Filipino and I am white lol. We met on Myspace actually. I saw his picture when they started doing that "do you know?" We didn't know each other but he was in the marines and stationed in my area. I had a really terrible year before meeting him and had just broken up with "the love of my life" or so I thought. I needed to take my mind off of the ex so I messaged him, and we talked on myspace for a few days and then he was on leave and I was working nights so he stayed up and kept me awake. We went around the issue of dating, he just got out of a serious relationship too, so then he asked me to just hang out at the local Drive In (he never been to it and didn't know we had one, but I was raised there) anyways, two days before we were supposed to go out my BFF texted me and told me she was going to have to cancel because her family was doing something and needed her. So I was all alone so was he, so we met up in walmart lol. Went to our favorite Mexican restaurant and the rest his history

While in junior high school he was a friend of a friend of mine. Whenever the two of them walked by me I used to say 'hello Ross' and then when they were out of ear shot I'd cheekily say 'hello Ross' friend'

It turned out a year later I had met this guy (the brother of a friend) and we all hung out together (about 10 of us). I had just broken up with one boyfriend and Tim (Martin's best friend) had asked me out. I said I'd think about it and let him know. the next morning Martin (my husband) asked me out. I thought OMG what am I gonna do. So I said no to both of them. In the end, Martin and I just couldn't be without each other so I told him 3 days later that yes, I would be his girlfriend - that was on my 14th birthday.

Eventually a couple of years later I was looking at some photos that Martin's mum had of him and there was a picture of him and Ross. I realised in this picture it was the guy that I always said 'hi Ross' friend' once he was out of ear shot - IT WAS MARTIN!

Needless to say, from that moment on I've always thought we were meant to be. We've been married for 23yrs and have two lovely boys.

Don't let anyone tell you you're too young. I'm a firm believer in 'if it's meant to be, it's meant to be'

High school! I'd been rejected by someone I had a crush on and was crying my eyes out...James, who was one of the guys I sat with at lunch, walked over and gave me a candy cane...A few weeks later, we were playing tic-tac-toe on a scrap of paper and he wrote "Date?" on the paper...I wrote back "Sure". I have half, always with me, and he has half with him....even when he deployed to Afghanistan last year. We've been together for 5 years...and married for 9 months. Most of our relationship was long distance after he enlisted, but we pulled through!!

I met my husband at the Fort Lauderdale Beach back when you could cruise the strip during spring break. He actually noticed me when I was walking down the sidewalk and honked and I thought to myself "how rude" Then later when my friends and I were leaving, I was driving and getting tired, so I asked my friend to drive. We did the Chinese fire drill in the middle of the street and my husband happened to be in the car behind us. He pulled up next to us and asked If I had a boyfriend and I said no, he then aksed if I would like one. For whatever reason, I actually gave him my correct phone number and here we are 23 years later, have been married for 19 and have two amazing kids. :blushing:
