In a silly mood, I announced to my friends that I wanted to marry a red headed guitarist. They said they knew one and apparently, I was right. I married a red headed guitarist.
We met the weekend before college started our freshman year. We had just moved into the dorms, and it turned out he lived across the hall from some of my best guy friends from high school. We were introduced that night, and the rest is history!
Jimmie, mama to Zoey (March 2011)
Losses 5/13, 8/13, and 3/14.
Expecting another GIRL! Carter Grace due on 12/25.
I guess I should reply to my own question. I was on vacation visiting a childhood friend. DH worked with my friend.My last night in town a bunch of people were going out to dinner/karaoke. Somebody invited DH to come along, and as soon as he showed up we made a b-line towards the other one and you couldn't pull us apart for the rest of the evening. I had to fly home the next day and he sent me a text in the airport asking me out. It took me 6 months to move 2,000 miles to be in the same town but he was worth it! I don't believe in "love at first sight" but I don't know how else to explain it. (gag)
We first met at 20, we were at the same party w/o our significant others. Spent the whole night talking, never did anything or saw each other again. Fast foward to 27, we get set up on a blind date, decided 3 hours into it we were getting married, got married one year later.
First week of college, a girl in my math class asked me over to her house to study for a quiz ... her roommate turned out to be my future DH. We basically started dating that night, and have been together ever since

My BFF played matchmaker and it worked, I officially met him at a bar, but it was because she made me go out with her and meet him. I was dating someone else at the time too, ended that relationship real fast.
We were in high school and there was some drama at a dance that I called him out for. A month later he told me I had nice eyes and the rest is history!
A bar in Brooklyn. He saved me from a creepy grad school classmate!
Very similar story. We met at a bar...in Minneapolis. He also saved me from a creepy dude
THat's awesome, mine is the same story! But we both had SO's at the time, and kept meeting as friends for 2 years after that. When the time was right and we had both been single for a while, we went out. A couple of months later he moved in, and a couple of months after that we bought our first house
We met through mutual friends and it seemed we were never single at the same time so our inside joke was that I was supposed to text him the word "single" once I was. I texted him one night and he came to pick me up and we have basically lived together since.
Match.com - but it turned out we had lived on the same block in a city 1,000 miles away, hung out at the same bars and dog park and somehow never ran into each other. We left that city to move to our new state and city within weeks of each other, where we finally met. ??

He and his uncle have an IT consulting company. Apparently we'd been using them for a while but we never ran into each other until last May when he came in to fix something at my office. Hit it off. First date was in June. Engaged in December. Married in June. Now expecting honeymoon baby
We met our freshman year in college at a crew party. We both rowed and, as it turns out, we had the same major. We started dating our second semester freshman year in college, and 14 years later, here we are!
My best friend introduced me to my now DH! We used to joke that if we ever got married, that she'd better be my maid of honor--and she was! We've been together 8 1/2 years now.
At our college there was this gazebo where a bunch of people hung out before and after classes, and discussed everything from philosophy to politics. I was taking philosophy that semester and my TA I had known in high school through a friend. Absolutely fell in love with DH while talking with him, later found out the philosophy TA was his roommate, and we had a few friends in common. It is as if something conspired to make sure we would meet.
At a bar, I was there for an afterwork function and he was there talking to a friend who worked there. He saved me from some creepy guy at the bar trying to buy me a drink.
He grew up in the cul-de-sac where I previously nannied. He was always away at school and once he graduated, he moved home for the summer. His parents have a pool the kids were allowed to use. Well my H started coming outside a lot and swam with us etc. He asked me to get coffee and the rest is history :-) a year later we were engaged and a year after that we were married.
Baby, you've got the sort of eyes that tell me tales... :Blog:
Re: Monday Fun/day Question
The short story is a blind date, but there was really more to it.
