    We went to preschool together! So yes, you can say it was love at first sight at the age of 3

    We met in undergrad - i was working at a bar and he came in. When i ID'd him he says "you go to boro right?" I MEGA eyerolled him and said nothing in return. Butttt.. I could not take my eyes off him the whole time he was in the bar. He was a mutual friend so I would see him out and always stroke up a conversation. Then, I started hanging out with his friends and when he wasn't around i asked "where's Ian? " and all of his friends couldn't believe I was asking about him (they are all a ridiculously good looking group and I guess most didn't go for him? or their egos where so big they couldn't believe it). So his friend texted him and said "this Stephannie chick is asking about you..." -- he came into the bar i was bar tending at every single night for 3 weeks. He finally asked me out and we've been together for 5.5 years now. We make jokes that I "stalked" him until he asked me out, but it was a mutual infatuation Smiley smile

    Online- i had never done anykind of online dating/talking at all. I saw his foto and the physical attraction was at like 100%! Lol- then after about 2 weeks of talking we met up and he was super shy and i was so not shy - the rest is history!

    Our families have known each other since I was 5 and FH was 10. I always had the biggest crush on him. The last time I saw him was when I was 15. I ended up marrying my HS sweetheart. We divorced a few years later and I ran into FH who I hadn't seen in 9 years. We hit it off right away! 6 years together and a baby later and now getting married!

    He is my neighbor's best friend. Instant attraction but it took us a few years of bad relationships to finally give it a try and never look back.

    High school our junior year. We were complete opposites, I was the outgoing one on the dance team, he was the quiet one in the back corner of our English class. He tried facebooking me the first time (I brushed him off because I was already dating someone else). Apparently he had a crush on me since Sophomore year. He tried talking to me again and I acknowledged him, we ended up talking a lot more after that. It definitely wasn't love at first site, mainly because I never seemed to notice him, he was always so quiet and timid. His half smile and humor is what did me in for sure though. We ended up going to junior prom together and were officially a couple the day after. We've been together for 4 years now.

    This picture is from that exact prom ( our first date )

    Board game night with friends. We were acquaintances/friends for almost a year prior to dating. I think if I had made a move when we first met we could have dated sooner, but I was still stuck on another guy when my friend introduced him (practically shoved him at me lol). Between that, me trying to change my lifestyle (I was trying to be more active/outdoorsy, we're gamer geeks), and his acting really strange/indifferent initially (I now know it's because he liked me and was trying not to stare/was nervous) I ended up missing precious time with the love of my life. The thing I can say for the mishap is it allowed me the opportunity to date a lying man-child, which makes me appreciate my FH all the more, and the barrier of me dating someone else helped him relax around me and be himself...and I was thunderstruck and still am everyday by how kind, generous, thoughtful, intelligent, funny, and loving he is. We've been inseparable since Memorial Day two years ago and I feel so lucky that he said yes to my asking him out then.

    I moved into this building while I was going through the Divorce with my first husband/Father of my two kids. I was going through a bad depression because at that time I though I was divorcing the love of my life and got to the point that I secluded my self from the world. So one day coming back from my therapist I got stuck in the elevator for almost two hours with this guy which end up being my next door neighbor and now my future husband.

    We met in kindergarten. We went all through high school together. We never dated or were in the same group of friends, although I did have a crush on him lol. After graduation we went our separate ways & never saw each other again. 17 years later we became facebook friends. Turned out he lived a 1/2 mile from me. Within a month of messaging, we were a couple. After 8 years of dating, we're getting married

    Myself and FH were introduced by a mutual friend 18yrs ago. Hung out a few times, never dated didn't even know he liked me. We lost contact shortly after. Then early part of 2016 he found me on Facebook. We fell for each other very quickly. We talked about marriage toward the end of the year and decided we wanted to get married. January 19,2017 my birthday he surprised me and proposed at dinner with my children and bestfriends present and i received a beautiful engagement ring. Now we're 59 days away from or I dos! Super excited and can't wait to be Mrs. Richardson!
