I'm watching a rerun of Bridezillas while doing the dishes and this girl has decided on her wedding day she doesn't want to marry her husband because he doesn't buy all-beef hotdogs and he only buys whole milk. (She has since decided to walk down the aisle, fyi)
Anyway, watching this made me think about how happy I am with DH & how much I love him, our wedding, how we met, etc. So tell me, how did you meet YH or SO? I'd love to hear!

Re: Whats your story?
He was my best friend's roommate, we ended up becoming really great friends, and the three of us moved in together.
About a year later he admitted that he was super into me, and I was all like "zzomg, I'm super into you too!" We kicked my best friend out at the end of the lease, and kept the place to ourselves. We got engaged Jan 2011, found out we were pregnant in March, and moved our wedding up to Aug, 2010. We're coming up on 3 years!

Well, I used to work with DH's twin sister. I graduated from high school, and worked at a daycare on the college campus I was attending. About a year into working at the daycare, she invited me to her (twin) brother's homecoming (from his mission; they're Mormon). At the time, I was super freaked out because I was worried that he'd try to convert me haha.
Well, I went to the airport (and to the lunch after), and DH and I met. He didn't really say anything to me at first, but then my now SIL and I would go up to her parent's house (where DH was staying until he started college a few months later). We started dating, and then we got engaged several months later, and got married on August 20th, one year and 10 days to the day we met.
We've been married for almost 2 years now, and we have a beautiful little boy, and we're trying to get pregnant again.

CLICK ME!!!11!!1111!!
My dh and I met VERY briefly at a mutual friends party. He had just gotten out of a long relationship and so had I. He asked the mutual friend at their 4th of July party what I was doing that weekend and why I wasn't at their party. They told him I was at concerts all weekend (was a 2 night DMB concert).
He got really excited because he was going to the 2nd night of the DMB concert the next day, so he asked for my number!
Fast forward to the next night at the concert. I was tailgating with some friends, my phone was in the car which I happened to go to to grab a sweatshirt at the same time my cell phone (which was on the front sea)t started ringing. I picked it up and it was HIM, the "hot guy" (which I called him after that first night I met him briefly). I was so excited!! We wandered around for an hour through the parking lots until we found each other (which is harder than it sounds), the rest is history.
Needless to say he planned on transferring from Rhode Island College to Keene state when school started back in September but decided to stay in RI and I am glad he did.
We got to meet Dave Matthews last summer and we got to tell him our story which was really cool
We first met when I was in 8th grade and he was a Junior. He was a high school youth group leader at our church, and was one of the h.s. leaders who was on my confirmation retreat. We were friends for a couple of years, then he went away to college.
After his first year at school, he moved back home to take pre-req classes at the community college to save money. At that point, I was a Junior. I was supposed to go to my homecoming with a different guy from church, who told me at the last minute he couldn't go because of a soccer game. I told DH about it, and his response was "What time should I pick you up?"
We started dating officially shortly after - that was 12 years ago! We've been married for 8 years next month and still going strong!
I love this!
We were friends in junior high. He used to tease me endlessly, and I let him because I had such a thing for him. We used to talk on the phone and everything, but eventually his teasing got to be too much and I lost touch with him after high school. When I had been at university for a few years, he looked me up and messaged me to say that he had thought about me over the years and wondered how I was. He said he wanted to apologize for how he treated me, and he only used to make fun of me so much because he had a crush on me back then.
We started talking again and after a year or so, we became very close. He drove through a snowstorm to visit me at school and that was it...I was head over heels for him.
I'd just come back from a 20 mile run out on the trails in 90 degree heat over an 8 hour timespan (so picture hot, sweaty, dirty running clothes). As I got back to my graduate housing on the university campus, the RA asked if I'd like to meet my new downstairs neighbor. I figured I might as well, and was introduced to DH, as he and his brother were moving furniture into the apartment. I immediately noticed that he was attractive, and realized it would probably be bad to date my neighbor, since it'd be awkward after we'd break up. We chatted for a while though, and he just seemed really great. Eventually he got around to asking for my number, so that we could go running together. Ends up, he wasn't actually into running, but he still managed to do just fine on our first date, a 7 mile trail run through the redwoods.
Definitely discovered that having your boyfriend just downstairs was a huge plus. We moved in together after I finished my year of grad school, engaged a year later, and married a year after that. We'll have been married for three years this June.
My DH and I actually met when we were 6. We lived 3 houses down from each other. I had a crush on him in 4th grade
We lost contact when I moved out of state at age 12, but reconnected when we were 18.
I could go on and on about details, but this post would become a novel.
So we live happily ever after.. just need babies.. the end
Edit: We make 5 years dating July 6th, and 2 years married on September 24th
DH and I met through friends (one of my best friends is now married to his best friend). They tried setting us up; I refused many times. DH took things into his own hands annoyed me until I agreed to lunch "as friends." That turned into a 12 hour lunch and we've been together ever since. Poor kid, I gave him such a hard time!!
OP what's your story?!
I had just transferred to a Division 1 school after 2 years at a Div 2 school. My 2nd class of my very first day I sat next to a guy who looked friendly. It was a stupid class with an even more stupid prof. The whole semester we wrote on each others spirals. He friended me on FB & he had a girlfriend. I was crushed because I thought he had been flirting with me so I convinced myself that I misread him. Fast forward to the next semester & we were still talking on FB or texting every day. We FB each other all through the Super Bowl (we had tests that Mon) & we made a bet. Needless to say I lost the bet & had to go on a date with him that Thurs. The day before our date our school had a huge basketball game (Bedlam) & I was standing outside in the cold waiting for the doors to open - he offered to bring me hot chocolate! That night, after the game he met me at the library on campus to help me study for Statistics. We had our 1st kiss that night - and we've never looked back. Dated 14 months, got engaged - engaged for 16 months, & in 2 months it will have been 5 years! Thanks for asking!!

We met when we were 12 and 13 in an online gaming site (playing checkers). I had just had my first kidney transplant and was given a computer to help keep up with school work. So, naturally I avoided homework and went to play Checkers. :P We IM'd, emailed, texted and even talked on the phone off and on throughout the years until I turned 18 (we lived 200 miles apart). One weekend his family went OOT and he stayed back to watch the pets so he invited me to visit-- and I naively/bravely did. HE was scared though and left a note in his work locker that read "If something should happen to me, look into someone who goes by the name Melissa with the phone number *** and online screen name *** as she is visiting me this weekend." We hit it off, he asked me out that weekend and we have been together ever since. I'll be honest, a long (200miles) distance relationship is super hard, but so worth it. We say all the time how things really do happen for a reason. If I hadn't had the transplants, I wouldn't have gotten the computer and we wouldn't have met.

Met my DH in 8th grade, though I hated him then. I was at a new school and he was always mean to me.
In high school I stopped hating him, we were friends, but not good friends. Right before high school graduation my best friend was dating his best friend so we hung around together a lot. The more we hung out the closer we got and a few months after high school we started dating. Now it's 11 years later and we are still together (though our friends broke up a loooong time ago). I even wrote in his yearbook before we were dating "Have a good summer, but I will probably see you. I can't seem to get rid of you." haha, little did I know back then he would be my husband.
We met through his cousin. She and I had been friends for years, but I had never met any of her family. In May of 2007 she told me her cousin and his fiancee broke up...but honestly since I had never met them, I wasn't sure if her cousin was him or the bride.
A few months later she and I were having dinner and she was like oh by the way, my cousin thinks your hot. He saw your picture the other day and asked about you. I was flattered, but knowing that he had recently called off his engagement, that seemed too risky. But nonetheless I went home and stalked his myspace to see what he looked like. I thought he was really cute, but I decided not to do anything. For the next few weeks I would nonchalantly ask about him and he asked about me, and finally one day he messaged me....we hit it off, so then we talked on the phone and a few days later went on a date.
Oddly enough, we had a huge falling out with his cousin and haven't spoken to her in almost three years....but at least I got a husband out of that friendship

This sounds like us!
DH and I met 10 years ago on my first day of band camp my freshman year when he was a junior. We both played clarinet and a mutual friend introduced us. We became best friends and started dating a year and a half later, then got engaged two years later [yes I graduated HS with a ring on my finger!]. Two years later we got married and we will celebrate our 4th anniversary on August 1st. He is still my best friend!

We met at a mixer between my sorority and his fraternity. I thought he was cute, but he was a lot older than me and didn't make a move, so I started dating someone else.
When we got back to school in the fall we ran into each other again at another party and I happened to be drinking away my troubles after seeing my ex hooking up with one of my sorority sisters. Once I was sufficiently drunk, I spotted DH sitting on the futon in the kitchen and walked right over, sat in his lap, and proceeded to tell him exactly how pissed off I was with men. Lol. He actually listened.
I ended up getting really sick that night from mixing liquor and beer and passing out on my friends couch. I found out the next morning that DH had held my hair back while I got sick and stayed all night with me to make sure I was okay. He sat in the recliner next to the couch while I slept in case I got sick again and needed help. He left before I woke up in the morning because he had to get to work, but he left me a note and his number saying he wanted to see me again.
I called him that day when I got home to thank him for taking care of me and asked him out. We have been together ever since that first date almost 7 years ago.
The note he left me is framed and hanging in our bedroom.
BFP April 24, 2018 | EDD December 29, 2018
A coworker and I signed up for match.com at the same time. In September, one of my friends wanted me to meet her hair stylist's son and I wasn't interested because I didn't want to date a guy whose mom was finding his dates. At the same time DH and I started taking on match.
A month later my friend invited me to a party and said that her stylist was going to bring her son so I could meet him. I told her I would come but could I bring DH as a date. She said sure because she thought as soon as I met the son I would drop the match guy.
DH and I get to the party and my friend tells me that her stylist is there but her son had a date and couldn't make it. Imagine my surprise when my friend's stylist came up to us and DH said, "hey mom what are you doing here?" He had no idea she was trying to set him up.
