The good old fashioned way - super drunk at a night club
ETA:
He actually asked me to dance 8 times and I said no each time until my friend asked me to please just dance with him so he would leave us alone, lol. Apparently persistance pays off. He claims he thought I was a different girl each time!
I met DH while we were both in college. We went to colleges across the street from each other and my friend was dating his. We didn't date during school but ran into each other (in a club on a Monday night - gotta love your 20s!) a year after we both graduated. When I saw him again I asked him to dance then asked him for his phone number and called him the next day. What can I say, I knew what I wanted He asked me out on a date and proposed (so he knew how to take the lead from there LOL). That was almost 11 1/2 years ago. We've been married for 4 1/2 years.
We met in college my freshman year through mutual friends. We were friends/acquaintances for a few years. Then had an accounting class together the 2nd semester of my junior year. Sat next to each other and I carried his a$$ through that class Realized I was interested in him toward the end of the semester and made my move - the rest is history!
My now MIL was my supervisor at the time and she kept pushing me to go out on a date with her son. I had just gotten out of a complicated dating situation and was totally not interested. I finally went out with him so she would leave me alone and the rest is history.
I moved to CA and went to this College get-together and he was there. He said some really cheesy joke and I literally laughed for a whole 30 seconds...and I was the ONLY one who did. Apparently that was "the first" for him.
For me, I was hanging out with his sister (for the first time at their house) and was doing this weird dancing thing. I was super hyper and basically "hopping" back and forth while knocking my knuckles on their counter. Lo and behold, when I stopped and turned around he was just staring at me with the weirdest look.
Then he simply said "we are going to play some guitar hero, wanna join us?"
We met in high school marching band. We started dating when I was 15 and he was 16. We were an awesome pair of band geeks. We went to college together, and were married at 20/21 after living together for awhile. Now the baby will be here when we're both 23. Sometimes I can't believe how lucky I am to have met the love of my life so early. The cute can be sickening, though. :P
We've actually known each other since grade school. We grew up in the same neighborhood, rode the same bus to school. We loss touch after he went to HS (I was 2 grades behind him). Years later I was at a bar ordering a drink, looking around and there he was. We recognized each other right away and hung out the whole night. We have been together ever since!!

Everyone always gets a laugh when we tell them so....
This one time at bandcamp.
Yep we meet at bandcamp. It was 10th grade and he was new to the school 10th grade for him to. We all were told to find our first spot on the field he was right next to me. I said hi and ask him what his name was. We have been together ever since. That was 10 over 10 years ago.
This story started at band camp on Sept. 6, 2002, when to people meet. Married on Nov. 14, 2009.
We met in college (ages 19 and 20) and a mutual friend got us together. I know it's so lifetime-movie-cliche, but I knew I was going to spend the rest of my life with him when we had our first kiss. Don't ask me how I knew, but I right after the kiss I called my dad up and told him I met this guy and we were going to get married. You can imagine how thrilled he was at the time, but he loves DH now.

That's cute! I knew after DH And I had our first phone conversation. I just knew! I think it took him a little longer...LOL
DH was working as a server for my grad school's holiday banquet. He said it was love/lust? at first sight and he stole my place card and looked me up later on facebook, saw that I had a boyfriend and didn't act on it. Later, when I was single we ran into each other at a bar and we hung out all night and he asked to take me on a proper date the next weekend. Together ever since.
We were set up! super lame....but we were. It took a few weeks to get both of us to do it, but then we all went out in a group where we were "introduced"...
and that was it. We kissed 2 hours later and have been together ever since. no drama, break ups, etc. just true love

I worked at a car dealership as a receptionist and he started a year or 2 later as a car salesman...pretty boring! But he was super shy and would always bring me candy. Everyone knew he liked me but it took forever for us to actually hang out. Now we've been together almost 4 years and all of the car dealership was at our wedding earlier this year
I met my DH online!! It was my first time to try on line dating and the second man I agreed to communicate with. i was tired of meeting lame guys in bars. I agreed to meet with him face to face after long nights of skyping and he was my ideal! I knew I wanted to marry him the first time he held my hand at the bonfire we went to after a rodeo. We got married this year and are now expecting our first together and my second.
I thought internet dating was totes lame until I tried it.
We met online like a for real dating website. But it gets better, we are both farmers/ ranchers and the website was called farmersonly and was fun!! I lived in Alabama at the time and him here in southern wisconsin. And the rest was history! Been together over 4 years!
We met at a pre-fair party thanks to a mutual friend. Funny because I had met this girl (our mutual friend) through an ex and wasn't even going to stay friends with her but she just wouldn't give up trying to get together. I finally gave in to go out to a party with her and boom, met DH She wasn't trying to set us up or anything, the timing was just there!

I had just transferred schools, and my husband was going back to school. We met outside one of our mutual classes. I had just gotten out of a kind of horrid relationship, had just moved to a new city, and was not looking to start dating again, so I was a wretched psycho hose beast to him and wouldn't even talk to him. Honestly. Every time he tried to strike up a conversation I shot him down but finally I realized he was the only person in my major under 40, and that he was kind of cute. One day he gave me a Qdoba cookie and asked if I wanted to go to the art museum with him sometime, and 4 years later we got married.
Met mine the day we graduated Navy Giordano by total accident. Asked him if he wanted to go out in town on liberty with my dad and I since he didn't have anyone in town and he said yes. The rest is history and my dads favorite story to tell is how he went on our first date with us cracks me us since at the time I was 23 n the hubby was 26
He was my best friends roommate in college and we met at a party for another friend of my BFF. We spent the entire night debating who was a better superhero, Batman or Superman. He said he fell in love that night but was with someone else We stayed friends from then and we ended up together 5 years later!
We went to high school together. He and his older brother were in a science class with me, and I was his older brother's lab partner and went to our school formal with him. DH and I got to know each other around that time. Haha.

We met in class at college. I happened to sit right in front of him the first day of class. Our professor had us work in a group so I got to talk to him. Took him 6 weeks to ask me out but the rest is history
Marigold Celestial Nostrils to save the day with glitter and unicorn farts!
We met at his fraternity's rush. He actually helped set me up with one of his fraternity brothers (because apparently this other guy called dibs first - gotta love the fraternity culture). So I dated that guy for a while, he dated one of my friends, and we were good friends. Eventually we were both single at the same time and then started dating each other. Weird, I know - but it seems to have worked out wonderfully!
A mutual friend set us up. She heard he was single and while we were out one night drinking, I called and left a message saying I heard he was hot and to call me back. He was curious, so he called the next night and the rest is history!
I was a freshman in college and he was a senior. We were both in a program for future math teachers and I didn't have a mentor though the other freshman did I later found out that he asked to be my mentor because he thought I was cute. As freshman year came to and end I knew I really liked him and that if I didn't make a move before he graduated I'd loose my chance.. he is a shy guy. So I invited him to an open mic at my old high school and spilled the beans through 2 poems I wrote about him. 13 months later we we were married and now haven been married for 4.5 years with baby 1 due 2 weeks before our 5th anniversary :
Btw.. I was really mad at him just now but writing this made me "unmad" lol
We met at a birthday party for my sister's friend who was dating dh's friend. Dh had been bribed to drive his friend (didn't have a car) 2 hours from where they were stationed with meeting me. So in a way we were set up, although no one told me at the time.
Dec 7th was the 5 year anniversary of our first date.

The first time we chatted, he was bouncing in the back room of the local watering hole and I drooled on my beer. It was magical.
