Sooo... how did you guys meet?

Spirit, on July 9, 2016 at 5:57 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 35

How did you meet your SO? Did you know they were the one?

We met at a concert. He knew I was the one. I didn't Smiley tongue was in another relationship at the time which was going downhill. I tried to save it, even gave it a year - couldn't be saved, nothing was changing. I left. We started hanging out while I was trying to get my life in order, he blurts out that he had feelings since the moment he saw me. I reel, it took a while to get used to it but I thought he was a very rare person and ended up falling in love with him.

Three years into the relationship, he proposed Smiley smile

    FH and I actually met in middle school technology class. I was new to the school and on my first day I stole his seat. Crazy thing is that as soon as he walked through the door I got butterflies and was hoping he'd sit with me even though he was not what I considered "my type". He ended up sitting next to me everyday after and now he will be my husband. I am so excited!

    We met online...first date was coffee at Starbucks before I had to go to work (ended up being late to work but didn't care). Didn't want to give my hopes up yet again so I played it cool for a couple months...tried not to get overly excited over things, etc (came to find out later he was doing the same). Then he told me he loved me...and I realized then that I had fallen in love with him too. Realized a little later on that he was "the one" (never thought it could be this easy) Met his family over Christmas (which is when he picked up the ring without me knowing). He proposed on February 13th...I almost couldn't believe it...and I of course said "yes!" Now, we have 43 days to go! Smiley smile

    We met via eHarmony and after we got to know each other, we were shocked we hadn't met sooner as we knew a ton of the same people and hung out at the same places over the past 20 years. Thank goodness for the World Wide Web! Smiley smile

    We met in a meetup.com group. It was a social group, not a dating group. I was dating someone else at the time so we were friends at first. We lived in the same subdivision. One day I was out running and and he was riding his bike. It was super hot so we decided to hang out at the pool that day. He moved into my townhouse 2 years later and after 5.5 years together he proposed.

    When I was in the 8th grade he was a sophomore in high school. He did dishes at the middle school. I liked him right away, our friend officially introduced us. I wasn't allowed to date him then since he was in high school. 2 years later we reconnected at a friends graduation party. We got stuck sharing a bench since we were the only two that could fit on it. We've been together ever since! That was 5 years ago! I truly believe everything happens when the timing is right!

    DS and I met at State Convention for Future Farmers of America in high school my junior year and his senior year. We had no idea each other existed until the convention yet we went to the same school lol. We hit it off over that weekend. The day after State Convention we were hanging out and he asked me to be his girlfriend. I had no idea that we'd fall and love but here we are getting married on September 10th of 2016 :-).

    I could've sworn there was a similar thread posted just yesterday.

    But alas, we met the summer after I finished my junior year in high school. It was at his sister's high school graduation. They're twins, and a year older than me.

    I didn't know he was "the one" until about 2 years later. But we were kids, I was only 17 when we started dating. So to me it wasn't super serious until it suddenly was haha.

    ETA: spelling

    We met on OKcupid. It was kinda funny, because I've been on online dating sites for years, meeting and dating guys once in a while. But I was really picky, so even the slightest wrong approach in a message to me would turn me off.

    In Match 2014, I was in my last couple days of school, about to graduate with a graphic design degree. I was seriously considering closing my OKC account, because I thought I should be focusing on myself and that I was still recovering from a very, very recent heartbreak. But, right before I went in to hit deactivate account, I decided to browse one more time. I found his profile (again) and finally sent him a message. I wasn't usually one to initiate messages. I thought, alright, if he doesn't answer me, I'm closing my account. Well, he did a couple hours later :-) our first date was at a sushi restaurant, even though I hate seafood. But, I love Cali veggie rolls, so I love sushi restaurants. We've been together since, and got engaged on May 13. ETA: spelling

    We met while working at Pizza Hut together. I can't remember exactly when I knew he was the one, but I do remember the day when I thought he could be the one. It was the night of our Bellydance show and it was so important for him to be there that he left work early. It meant a lot that he was so embracing of who I am.

    We actually met 5 years ago while working at a major retail store. I was 18 and had only been working at the store a couple months and FH was 21 and the Loss Prevention supervisor. He technically wasn't supposed to date employees because of his position, so we tried to keep our dates under wraps. I was so excited that I told one of my coworkers and asked her to keep it a secret. Having only been at the store a few months, I didn't know she was the main gossip source. FH and I had to call it quits after only two dates. He left the store to run his dad's business a few months later. We remained best friends and decided to give dating another shot two years ago!

    We met on Christmas Eve at work. We worked different shifts and I NEVER worked Christmas Eve but decided to go to work last minute and he left a client's phone in his pocket. It was about 2am when we met and never saw each other at work again but somehow added each other on FB. Then I was having a home party for adult novelties and to be a wise assume invited him and a few other people. He just got involved with a network marketing company (which I found out later) so he said he couldn't make it and offered to go out for sushi (which sounded like a date to me and I was hung up on my ex) but I bailed on that. We ended up going out for breakfast (I worked nights) he was planning to meet for networking and I was pressured by my friend to give a date with him a chance haha. But we actually had a great breakfast and drove around for a couple hours just talking and we've been together ever since. <3

    FH and I met on my first day of my new job at an assisted living facility during a CPR certification class. He didn't work there but was taking the class to renew his certification because he was friends with my boss. When I saw him I thought he was so handsome, but I tried not to make too much eye contact because I felt like I was just staring. His humor was the same as mine and I couldn't stop thinking about him. That night I went home and told my step sister all about him and then went to sleep. Woke up in the middle of the night because we had a storm and the power went out and I heard people talking. My sister told me she got a job at the facility and then she told our boss about me talking about him. I was super embarrassed, but later I found out he was asking my boss about me too. We swapped numbers and then he surprised me with going to Epcot to travel around the world for our first date. I knew he was the one from the moment I met him.

    Yesterday made 4 years of us being together and 6 months until we marry!

    We met when we both worked for the same company in 2014. We admit now that we both instantly felt a connection. We were both in relationships at the time, and he actually ended up getting engaged that same year. In January 2015 BOTH of our relationships ended terribly only 2 days apart. In March of that year, the whole work team went out for dinner and co-workers (that he ended up moving in with after his breakup) told me that he thought I was cute! So childish, but so intriguing! I ended up working in their store later that week and FH have been inseparable since. We got engaged this past April while on vacation in Mexico! We still have quite some time before our big day but I cannot wait to marry my Prince Charming!

    Match.com. We had our first date at a restaurant, and I tried parking my car in a dirt parking lot next to the restaurant. Of course I got stuck! I knew he was special when he came out to my car to try to get it out, and then paid for the tow truck that had to be called. Besides that, we had a pretty instant connection.

    We meet on facebook ... he messaged me and I NEVER answered anyone's messages I was in a very toxic relationship and just that day I had told myself I would change my current situation . I made my self a promise to date and go out so he was the first guy who messaged after a few conversations he asked me on a date we went for Chinese ( my fav.) And to watch a movie (carrie 2012) he knew I was the one from that day it took me a while to realize he was ment for me he helped me heal and become myself again and he proposed last year... we were at my favorites aunts house and he had a band go there and sing to me our favorite song he had roses and a ring and the way his hand were shaking was what made me say yes.
