So last night me and my FH where talking and I was on WW looking around like normal and he asked me if I ever put our story on here so I am now! It all started with my son, who was 6 at the time.

So last night me and my FH where talking and I was on WW looking around like normal and he asked me if I ever put our story on here so I am now! It all started with my son, who was 6 at the time. One day out of the blew he told me " mom there is a website called ehormory and I think you need to go on it and find me a dad". I of course thought it was funny and never thought about looking online but he kept saying it all the time and calling me in to the t.v. room every time the commercial came on. So finally I decided to just try and see and also it would make him happy to know I listened to him. So after I made my profile and all I waited. My FH was the first person to message me. We had a lot in common and we started talking a lot. About a month after we met online we went on our first date and really hit it off. I honestly never have laughed that much with anyone!! On our one year mark we went out to dinner at the same restrunt as our first date and he asked me to marry him!

    My FH and I met through a Mutual friend at MMRBQ (concert). He sat next to me. He was quite. We hit it off when a security guard with side burns and khaki shorts with army boots tried jumping a fence and didn't make it smashing his manly hood. We laughed so hard and that's when we really connected. I have to invite that guy to the wedding lol

    We met in an Ethics Class during both of our first semester at FSU. we're both left-handed so we were stuck in the same row of left handed desks lol.

    I was fresh out of a bad breakup and he was in a new (short lived) relationship, but I thought he was cute and funny and we studied together for the final with a group of my friends.

    After the semester ended we weren't close enough to keep in touch, but a few weeks into the spring semester he sends me a facebook message asking if I would want to hang out and watch a movie with him and his friends (we watched Dune) late on a Sunday night. It was out of character for me to agree to such a random invite with barely knowing him and not knowing any of his friends, but to this day I'm so very glad I did!

    We met on Myspace. Yep, it's be a while. I had a bunch of friends bugging me to join the site my senior year in high school so I sat down one day and started a page and added random people in the area. FH accepted the request and messaged me on AIM. We have the same hometown but he was away in the Army. We talked on AIM for three months and then met for our "first date" when he came home to visit his parents for Thanksgiving.

    We met on LiveLinks, the phone chat line in 2001. After a bad party, my bestie and I split a bottle of wine and got on the chatline for laughs. We passed by his intro three times (wasn't funny, just "Hi, my name is Keith, I'm a 20 year old Marine in...") before I accepted a private message from him. He seemed heaven sent just for me. We talked six hours that night, and then all day every day work permitting for two weeks until he finally asked could he take me out. When he came to my door, I knew. When we got into the car, I asked could I have my goodnight kiss first, because if the kiss was bad we could just go inside and become friends lol. That kiss stopped the world, though. We went out that night, again the next night, and that following morning he moved in with me. We were married a month later, but we're finally having a wedding.

    I met my FH on match. We talked for several months because i was wprking full time and school full time. I had an accident at work and broke my ankle which eliminated work and school for 6 months. I had to postpone meeting him on Labor Day weekend because of my injury. I decided the first weekend in Dec. 4 years ago that the weather was great for being in the upper midwest that i was going to take a roadtrip to MN so we finally got to meet 8 months after meeting online. During my 12 weeks of being non weightbearing he had my attention and won me over. We got engaged a year ago this last February. Getting married in 10 days.

    We met at a concert on Halloween! We talked for a while that night and then I didn't see him again until a couple months later at a local show. We were pretty inseparable after that and here we are now!

    A lot of other online matches here I see. FH and I met on Tinder! He sent the most unique first message I had ever received. During our first date I just knew he was the one. Had our 2nd date the next day.

    We met on PlentyOfFish. On our first date I was like, I need to buy a blender--meet me at the store? So, yeah, we walked around Bed, Bath and Beyond and then got something to eat.

    I was 16 when I met my FH. I kept feeling a tug on my heart when I saw him. That was the last time I had seen him until I was 23. I was living with a friend and needed a ride to the store with my son( one years old at the time). I didn't even realize it was him until we started talking. That night I had asked if he would go out on a date with me and he said yes. And I was so happy. My son approved because he hated men.

    @Jessica My fiance and I also met on zoosk. He messaged me several times before I finally answered. We eventually exchanged numbers and after a month of talking on the phone we went on our first day. We have a lot in common and we're looking forward to spending our lives together.

    Haha Kids are funny.

    I was 17 and he was 27 *i just want to say there was no physical attraction or anything like that at this time lol* i have always been the youngest of the groups I've hung out in.

    We met at a (no longer) mutual friends house for a game night. I used to work with a girl who was dating (now married to) a guy that my Fiancé used to work with. We were introduced to each other because my old co-worker realized we both had a huge common interest in VW beetles. We chatted for a bit and then joined the rest of the group to play a few games. The night ended and a few days later I saw he had added me on social media. I thought he was cool so I accepted and followed back. I also expected to see him around more often since we had mutual friends. But I didn't hear from him after that night other than connecting on social media. In January of 2016, we reconnected. I set a new profile picture on FB and he, being the silly guy he is, commented on it trying to flirt with me. I messaged him and started chatting more about VW's and caught up a bit. We started going to the gym and going on coffee dates together. We tried to take it slow because we both thought "she's young" and "he's way older" but we just clicked but by April of 2016 we had put a deposit down on out apartment and he had bought my ring. Smiley smile

    FH and I went to the same high school. We had classes together every year and were interested, but we both didn't think we had a chance. During February of our senior year, I was in theater with his young sister and mentioned it. She went home and told him to ask me out the next day (which happened to be Valentine's Day). We were both getting ready to graduate and weren't looking to get serious, but he always says something told him this would be worth it. He kept trying to ask me in person on a date at school, but things kept ruining any chance he got. He ended up messaging me on Facebook to finish asking me on a date on Monday night. We texted all weekend, had a lovely first date, and have been inseparable for other 4 years now. I even got him to join theater with me! Lol

    Op that is such a cute story!!!

    My FW and I met via Facebook. It was really odd, I was scrolling through Facebook and she had posted in a group I was part of. I saw her picture and was thinking "OMG that dog is so stinking cute. Oh hey, so is she." So I messaged her and thought nothing of it. She wrote back about 3 months later, because my message went to the filtered messages. I think I said something dumb like, "Hey is that a Labrador?(It was so obvious it was a black lab) What is his/her name? You're cute." As you see, I have ZERO game, but it worked.

    Well anyways, when she wrote back I was on my way over to my mom's house so I gave her my phone number and she texted me before I even got to my mom's which was 5 minutes away from where I was. The only bummer was she was in MA and I was in CA. The distance made me hesitant, but we clicked. We love a lot of the same things, music, food etc. So after a year of skyping and long phone calls I made the red eye flight with 3 layovers to Boston Logan airport to meet her. I was so freaking nervous and even made a few “You’re not going to chop me up and put me in a freezer are you?” “You know, I’m a big girl and I can fight!” (I’m big, I cannot fight lmao) comments (she still makes fun of me for that lol) Well, the vacation was supposed to be two weeks long and turned into 2 years, she is everything I have ever wanted and needed in a partner. I loved her family and they loved me just as much. So after the first year, we both flew back to CA for her to meet my family. She loved California (she had never been) and made promises to “bring my mom’s baby back home in a year.” Almost a year to the date we were on a train moving all our crap out to California together. Then in 2014 she asked my dad if she could marry me, he said yes (obviously) and Christmas Eve she popped the question! April 5th makes 5 years together, August makes 6 years knowing her. I love her to pieces and our families mesh so well its crazy. Her parents retired and they too decided to join us in California so the whole gang is here now.

    We met in college. We lived on the same dorm floor freshman year, and we were hanging out with a bunch of other people watching HIMYM one night. We were sitting next to each other, and something sparked. We started hanging out one and one and quickly realized we were great for each other.

    Everyone says not to date people on your dorm floor, but our floor had a weird thing for setting up marriages. I know more couples who met on that floor who have gotten/are getting married than couples who have broken up.

    Uh mine is not as exciting or cute like everyone else's Smiley tongue

    We met our freshmen year of college and really fell for each other our sophomore year. After a few months of denial, we had The Talk ("do you like me? I like You") and made it official.

    And here we are 9.5 years later!
