I'm BORED, people.

 

How did you and your SO meet? 

beeunit

We worked at Kmart together.  He was 19 and a freshman in college, paying his way through.  I was a junior in high school and 16.  We've been together for 10 years this month.

At a bar.  We are KLASSY.

 

It was his brother's birthday and I threw his shoe across the bar when he stepped out of it and I tripped over it.  Apparently it worked.

I was getting over a breakup. My sister took me to a "cabin" party, where we hit it off. Funny story... that night we were all being reckless and I was riding on the back of his jeep with no hands, and ended up falling off and breaking my nose! We went to the movies the next day and been together ever since, 3 years

We met online first. I had been stationed in Germany for a while and he was new.  He posted in a forum asking some questions that I answered. And it blossomed from there. we dated just under two years, and have our two year wedding anniversary in July.

I dated his friend for a year and a half and when we broke up I went for DH. Yup, I'm that girl lol

He was a friend of a friend of my brother and we were introduced at our county fair. He had a big truck and I was in 4H, it was love at first sight (haha). We have been together for 8 years and married for 3 years. This is our 1st child.

We met at work.  I was 16 he was 15.  I was a cashier, he was a bagger.  I thought he was annoying, he thought I was a bish.

ngarden01

I was 16 and worked at a gas station. He came in (drunk I'm pretty sure) with a group of his friends. I was working with my best friend and they kept talking about how pretty I was and glancing over at me. I threw a water bottle at her and that's when he finally came over and asked if I wanted to go to a party that night. I told him that I was grounded (seriously, it was the ONE time I was grounded in my life) and he asked if I would call him if he left me his phone number. I was just a regular ol' sweetheart back then and said no. He proceeded to write down his number and I tossed it aside. A couple weeks later he stopped back in during the day and I fell in love with his truck (I noticed the truck before I realized it was him) and text him that night.

We've been together ever since.. 7 years!

I was best friends with his ex-fiance. Needless to say, we're no longer friends!

I was actually trying to help him with his relationship with her, they broke up and we kept talking. He kept asking me out and finally I said yes just to get him to stop!  Obviously it backfired, because I was madly in love with him after our 10 hour first date! 

This was my junior year of college, we've been together for almost four years.

I guess we are KLASSY, too. I met DH in a bar while I was on study abroad in Spain. Four years later, we're still going stong.

egingras

We were on a blind date.  With other people.  It was horrible.  The absolute worst date of my life.  My date was such a moron and socially awkward that he couldn't even conduct a conversation.  Which is why he had brought DH- to help.  The other girl was a royal bish and hated me on sight.  Guess she knew somethign, because the next week, DH called me and we hit it off.  And we have been together for seven years now.

mlangs

We worked together at the translations company I still work for.

He is French and I am American.

How did we meet?  He and his date "pulled up" next to me and my date during a [junior-high zombie-style] slow dance at our 7th grade Sweetheart Dance. He and my then-boyfriend proceeded to discuss wedgies while Boyz II Men crooned "On Bended Knee" over the AP system. Sigh.

We didn't start dating until late high school, though.

College. My next to the last quarter.

In college - my junior year.  All of my friends were abroad that year, so I became friends with a group of senior guys.  DH was in that group.  

Cole0702

HA..well I dated his younger brother...lol

Ready for a long story?! 

I moved back to my home state to finish college after taking a few years off. I was working at Banana Republic and became friends with "Jon".  Jon had a huuuuge crush on DH, but they were just friends (obvs., DH is not gay ).  I kept hearing about how great this guy was blah blah blah. Then one day, Jon showed me pictures of DH's Myspace.  Lol.  I said, "that's the guy I need to marry"; and this was coming off my phase of I'm never getting married/having kids.

DH ended up going on some dates with another one of Jon's friends, and I was going on dates myself so I didn't really think much of it.  Then one night, Jon asked if I wanted to grab dinner with him and some of his other friends (including the girl DH had semi-dated, but was no longer). I said yes.  Little did I know, DH was going to stop by as his office was nearby.  The only open seat was next to mine and he was waaaay cuter in person.

So at the end of dinner I invited everyone to come play cards at my apartment, my roommates used to play every Wednesday. DH was the only one who said yes, so we exchanged info.  Later that night,he texted me and said he couldn't make it because of work. Well, I had a couple of glasses of wine so I was feeling brave and said that I'd forgive him if he took me out of coffee. He called me the next day.

The next day was rainy so I decided to test my game and said I couldn't make it.  DH said he had to go OOT for a wedding and would call me when he got back.  I totally didn't expect to hear from him, but he called me on that Monday and we went out the next day!!

Our first date, we went for hot chocolate, played some trivia at a pub, and went to see a band. When he walked back to my car, he gave me a hug and then headed back to his car. He turned back around and gave me this heart melting smile, the same smile he gave me as I walked down the aisle.

We met in college. He transferred in from another school. My group of friends met up with his group of friends for lunch at the cafeteria. That is how I met him. I though at the time, "Hmmmm.......Naw we will just be good friends." And we were for a couple years. Dated for about 4 years. Now we have been married 7 years. It will be 8 years in December, after this little bundle of joy shows up. I have known him a total of 14 years.

We basically hang out with a large group of the same people.....I had seen DH at parties and other get togethers. One night he came over and said "How are we always in the same places but never talk to each other?" (CHEESEY BUT IT WORKED) We talked for several hours that night but didn't exchange numbers or anything. When I left he said he was sure he'd see me soon. The very next week a mutual friend was having a going away party....and DH was there. This time he asked for my number....we hung out that whole night, and talked on the phone for what seems like days.....anyway I guess the rest is history

On-line, hotornot.com to be exact.  I was drinking, let him come over to my apt, he didn't leave until the next day and we've been together ever since.

classy, I know!

He asked me to prom his senior and my junior year.  Just over 13 years ago.

MzRizzo

He lived where I worked. His roommate would always come into the office for coffee and talk to us. Before he deployed we ran into the roommate and him at a bar. We started talking and one thing led to another. =]

We met at the apartment complex we worked at.  I was a CA and he was the maintenance man! 

LGirl22

His brother and my friend at the time had met on an online dating site.  I went along with her to "make sure he wasn't a creep".  He isn't and well I actually met my no DH on the way home from that.  I knew it was him by what he was driving so I made a passing comment about how I had just met his brother and laughed and drove off.  He called/emailed me for the next little while and well the rest is history.  That was 14 years ago!

ForeverEverAfter

Another classy one here-met at a bar. My friend and I were an hour early to our buddy's show, so we went upstairs to get drinks, DH was the bartender. Kept bringing over fancy drinks. My friend left my number on a gum package (that he kept), and when we left she said (hopeless romantic) that we would get married and have babies, and that she wanted to be MOH. 5 years later she was my MOH And now comes baby!
