How did you meet?

I love stories on how people met. Some are real simple others are interesting and funny. So share. 🙂

I'll go first.
I am an aquarius and my hubby is a libra. Lets see...I was driving to work one day. It was like 6:45 am. My coffee maker broke so I was desperate. I finally see a coffee shop and there were other desperate coffee drinkers outside standing in line. But I saw this tall cute guy at the end of the line. I made a u turn, put on some lip gloss and got in line behind him. To be honest it had been 8 months since I had sex so I just wanted to bang his brains out for about a week and move on with my life. 😈

So he turns around to see who is behind him and I gave him a smile, "Good Morning". He said morning, then turned around. He turned to look at me 4 times until we got to the register to place our orders. Usually I will take my coffee and run. But looking around it was no tables left. So he offered me a seat at his table. Our first date was at a restaurant, a family restaurant with great food.That was the beginning.

We dated for 3 months before we made it official. We were having coffee one day. I saw a really cute man, he was gorgeous,my eyes followed him as he went out the door. When I looked back at my libra, he was staring at me with the, "what the fuck are you doing" look. Then he told me, "You know your my girlfriend right". I was like,"Uh". Then he said, " you heard me". So it was official..I was his girlfriend.

omg thats so hot, the part when he announces your his girlfriend! and I condone your picking up tactics - cheeky yet efficient..

I met my first cancer boyfriend at a nightclub. I was carving up the dance floor like a crazy disco dancer and my friend stopped me and told me there was a guy watching me and I didn't think much of it. When my friend and I went out for a cigarette or to the toilet or bar he would be following us and I thought he wanted my friend at first and then he came up to me and whispered in my ear " I got a pill in my car". I have to admit I was hooked from then on the sad part was it was only half a pill and as I racked it up on his dashboard and attempted to snort it my head hit the windscreen and and I blew it everywhere??_..was a fucking nightmare he also told me he played bass in a band so immediately I wanted to be his groupie but it turned out he was finishing his degree in commerce and was intending on working in advertising and liked dressing like he was in a punk rock band.

"omg thats so hot, the part when he announces your his girlfriend! and I condone your picking up tactics - cheeky yet efficient.."

Yea people say libras are pushovers, but I dont see it. Not unless its something I really want at the mall. otherwise the man is bossy!

I had just gotten discharged out of the Navy, and went to live with my brother. His common-law-wife had just had a little baby boy. I went with his (CL) wife to her parents house one day, and saw my future husband - her brother.

We finally got to hook up, and it only took me a short while to realize he's my match.

I went rented a house, went to his parents house, and told him, "You're mine, you're with me" ... packed up all his belongings and moved him in with me.

That was 1982 ... we are still married, happily.

I haven't seen you in quite some time, chem

two/three years maybe .... seems to me that I pissed you off about something (surprise), and you did the normal Aqua thing and get a stick up your ass, rather than letting a disliked pov pass ... but, the residue of your memory brings up a cheerful person.

aww i miss you too P..🙂 to be honest I got married, settled in and now I'm 5 months pregnant.We are having a girl. I'm excited.

Our core values are compatible.

My first marriage was based on being in love .... with love passion, comes hatred, once the intensity is diminished. When you have mad love for someone, you also have mad hate for them ... there's no inbetween ... black/white

With my current husband, who is my life partner ... we really like each other. We were never in love with each other, though deep love is present. We fell in like, for each other ... like for each others priorities, beliefs, the fundamental forces that drives our actions.

With that kind of love for each other, trust and respect is built.

And I knew within just a few short months that his values match mine, that we are compatible. And to this very day, we are best friends. We call each other numerous times throughout the day (or text), and we do everything together .... still, after 3 decades - he is still my match.

That's wonderful, congratulations!

I'm trying to remember .... were you in a bi-racial relationship? Is that who you married? I thought that situation was causing you two stress due to family problems of your races?

Am I mistaken .. was that someone else?

Anyway, I hope you're both happy.

Thanks P. 🙂 no that wasn't me. I married my Libra and we are happy.

Signed up on a dating site. I saw a familiar face from my home town, so did he. He contacted me. We chatted a bit and discussed going on a formal date. Then a couple of days before, we were texting and I invited him out for drinks with my friends I usually went out on that particular night. He accepted. That was a little over two years ago. We've been together ever since.

About three months in, I was asked out by someone else. I told him and told them I turned them down because I just didn't want to date anyone else. He said a female friend had invited him over for dinner and he turned her down for the same reason. I said "so looks like we're on the same page". He said "looks like it". That's how we made it exclusive.

We didn't make it "facebook" official until 8 months in. Wanted to make sure it was gonna stick before we put it out on public media.

the dangerous looking hitman turned out to be a teddy bear sweetie pie — — —

LOL 😄 thats sweet.

Met him through a friend's party. Prior to that, he wanted to meet up with my friend and I for skating (he saw my pic on facebook) but that plan didn't work out. I was having too much fun with the gay guys at the party and did not have any interest in him lol. All I remember of him at the party was he was making drinks for everyone. Then, my friend wanted to have a road trip during spring break...I initially wanted to go and so did he. I backed out, he backed out. My friend told me because I backed out he backed out, he is just interested in me. So I told him, soooo I heard you like me...I think we should be friends. After rejecting him before he even got the chance to confess I observed him for a month. I wanted to see how he acts to make sure he is not crazy (because I felt he was a little bit obsessed). And based on my observations he turned out to be different in a good way. He kept his cool even when he was upset with others and his didn't give any attitudes or lose his mind, he kept his promises to the plans we made to hangout even though I rejected him (I think most guys would just avoid me for the sake of their dignity/they would just move on after rejection), and he was very humble with his achievements. So nearing the end of spring break I told him that I liked him and if he still liked me. He went speechless for a second and said do you even have to ask. We have been together ever since.

:X I guess mine is not so romantic, he kind of slowly gained my love through showing who he is as a person more and more. Excuse my grammar in the other post.

The funniest and weirdest meet up (didn't last but was funny nonetheless) is this sag friend of mine. We first met back in highschool, met her once during out year 12 formal (kinda like a prom). It was just a blind date someone set up for us but we had fun chatting.

Skip 2 years, I've found a temp job in france and she turned out to be my supervisor for the first few days. She headed back to Aus while I was abroad and that was that.

Skip one year, I'm about to head home and I run into her at the airport. She's now a flight attendant and was looking after my section. But that was that.

Skip another 2 years, with random meetings in between again in different locations. She manages to find where I was working and there we finally stopped to talk about these weird meet ups. She was so excited to see me when she came up to the bar she clenched the glass so hard it snapped. I bolted out the door to buy bandages! Patched her up and then it got real busy and I thought that would be it again.

Noticing she left her purse behind I ran after her. Now I don't trip everyday but boy did I trip that time, fell into some glass on the way down. We went back to the staff room where she helped me out. At that moment I leaned in to kiss her. Quite a sight if you ask me with blood dripping down my arm. We had a laugh after that, she admitted to wanting to do that for years now. We didn't really get contact details, not sure why but probably so use to each other just disappearing and said goodbye.

Later that night, guess who I see again? We had a good night, dancing and reminiscing about all the coincidences and stayed together for a few weeks until she had to fly back out. I had to go back to Denmark to take care of some family business.

That was almost 2 years ago. Last week I've just been given the list of trainees for bartending and service oriented positions. Lo and behold I find her name on that list. I really don't think it'll end up going anywhere for the fact we are just never at the same place long enough. But if we do end up together it'll be one hell of a story to tell the kids.

Unintentionally catfished.

Cute! Love the adorable stories!

We met in a completely non-magical way, online lol. He never really like chasing women in bars or clubs and works for the family. My father was very ill at the time and I am his caretaker, so my life was all-nighters, hospitals, doctors and managing his bills. Neither is conducive to meeting others to date.

I remember first seeing his message when I was trying to show another email to my friends and thinking 'OMG this isn't another 35 year old with kids creeping on me is it?' Lol. Which he doesn't look that old but a goatee + quarter inch avatar did a lot of damage to his youth haha.

Nope, he was very much young, charming and fun. I thought we'd go on a few dates and bang some, and then both get bored and fade away. But the dates and the sex kept on going and we just sorta fell into a relationship. 😛

Aww a woman i can relate too. I thought mine was going to be a bang session too, but WRONG....look at us we both got relationships. 🙂

Cute story I haven't shared (I think I shared the story with my Aries Ex plenty of times).

First real boyfriend. 9 years old lol Aqua. He was a friend's cousin. We'd all go to do math at the Children's Palace which is basically a building of classes of kids who have nothing better to do with their weekends but indulge in different skills. I remember that year the first McDonald opened in Romania. So one afternoon he goes "hey do you want to go grab one of those new things..hamburgers?". I'm like "Ok". He grabbed my hand and we walked down the street totally adorable. Next weekend we made official and by official I mean..he had this collection of small plastic figurines of dinosaurs and he gave it to me "It's not much but it's all I have and I'm serious about you". I think we were together for 6-8 months. During the summer he asked me to go to his grandparents village and spend the brhe two months there, which we did. On the train he was singing to me that Backstreet Boys's song "I want it that way": You areeee my fireee, my one desireeee. To this day I still care about that shitty band because of that.

We'd play with all the kids in the village and he'd always pick me in all teams, despite not picking his brother. The brother would go "He's picking his girlfrieeeeend over meeee" temper tantrum..must have been an Aries lol.

Then we broke up. I don't remember why exactly but it was over some thing we didn't have in common..maybe it was some cartoons. Good reason for a break-up back then.

But yeah, back when everything was genuine and innocent.

That's damn cute Damnata. 🙂

I have similar stories of my first (and for a long time only) girlfriend though I cannot remember how we started since I was five. 😛
