    We met on campus at college. It was my first, and his second (and final) year, of grad school.

    We dated in high school and went our separate ways when we went to college. We reconnected after and the rest is history.

    We met at work. He asked me out 3 times. Each time I said no. Finally I gave in, because I had nothing better to do that day. By our 3rd date. I knew. Talk about a total clishe.

    We were 23 at the time, we actually attended the same high school but never met each other back then. He found me through friends online and asked if I wanted to go to a hometown football game while I was visiting home. I told him no thanks. My little sister asked me to pick her up from the game, so my best friend and I arrived early. We sat down in the stands and we happen to sit right behind my now fiance and his date for the night. Two months later we started dating, 4 years later we are engaged!

    We met at work, our job then was at a call center. He was a trainer at the time,my first impression of him was that he was too loud and I wasn’t physically attracted to him per say, however his first impression was that he had to get to know me because I was going to be his wife one day.

    2 weeks later after being around him every day and him asking me random but appropriate questions I started getting the feeling that he was interested. I found out my intuition was correct when I reactivated my fb just to send him a friend request. I had made plans to go out with friends one weekend and was gonna be a fifth wheel so I asked if he wanted to join he said yes with no hesitation.

    We spent every day together after that and I fell in love with quite quickly; he’s funny, caring, selfless, and so much more. He had to move back to his hometown for personal reasons shortly after we became official. So we did long distance for a year and seven months then I packed up everything and moved 500 miles away from my home to be with him.

    One of the best decisions I ever made, we’re now engaged and I can’t wait to call him my husband.

    Moving to a new city led to us meeting through a mutual friend. We met only a month after I moved in 2010 and have been together since. We shared a kiss on our first date and it was like fireworks and I knew then he was my husband!

    I met him in my dad's backyard (neighbors). His little siblings and mine were really good friends so we went to their house to play with them and out comes William and I was instantly attracted to him. We exchanged numbers we talked for a few days and then he asked me to be his girlfriend. We have been together for almost 5 years now!

    Well, I met him a little over 4 years ago when i started a new job. I wasn't looking for a relationship, and i dont think he was either. He had just lost his wife about 2 years prior, and he had 3 daughters to raise. He started to pursue me and i kept resisting him. At this i had given up on love and finding the one. I had been searching for awhile and just keep finding mr. wrong. I guess you can say his persistence paid off because we fell in love and i fell for his children and he with my son. Now we are planning a wedding. Right now our budget is very small if any at all. We are happy and trying to make the best of what we have.

    Joe and I are both actors by night, doing semi professional theater. We met doing Beauty and the Beast. I remember my first rehearsal I saw him sitting by himself and thinking he was cute. But, I was too shy to approach him then. As rehearsals went on I discovered we were both featured dancers together and were paired up in the kick line for Be Our Guest. The rest is history and we’ve been inseparable ever since.

    We met in high school. I switched schools so came in in eighth grade. We had chemistry and geometry together and became friends. Then more.

    We actually went to high school together but never interacted. We crossed paths in our early 20’s through mutual friends, we were attracted to each other, but nothing came of it. It wasn’t until our mid 20’s where we actually saw each other at a local bar and started actually talking, and we really hit it off! After that we became very good friends and eventually decided to start dating! Now here we are!

    We went to elementary school and middle school together. After separating for 4 years in high school we found each other again and started to hang out. Next thing lead to the other and we started dating. It was so funny to us in the beginning because at times we both had crushes on one another in middle school and always were good friends through the years. 7 years later he proposed at one of our favorite places to visit, on the beach in San Simeon, CA during another beautiful sunset. Couldn't be happier. Smiley smile Smiley heart Smiley ring

    Ryan and I met on vacation when we were 12 years old playing Marco Polo in a pool in Florida. I lived in London, UK and he lived in Virginia, USA. We stayed in touch though msn messenger, AIM just as friends going through big changes in our lives like big exams, applying to college, going to college, loss of loved ones, new relationships etc. Then when I graduated, I decided to take the Greyhound around the states to explore with a good friend from college. It happened that he would be in Nashville when we were there, we met up and I remember thinking how gorgeous his eyes were. I persuaded him to travel outside of the US for the first time and visit me during an internship in the middle east. We went on a two week road trip together and thats how our relationship started. After two years long distance I moved to the US. We had been living together for three years before I asked him to marry me. After a 6 mile run on one of our favorite bridges in London, I got down on one knee and popped the question. He was so surprised, laughing and crying he got down on one knee too and said yes. (we both like bridges and running so it made sense). We are getting married this November in Florida, where we met and I couldn't be happier!

    Right after I asked him...How did you meet your future spouse? 1

    We actually met playing whiffle ball of all things! We were both part of a league called Zog Sports in our city, Astoria, NY. It's basically adults playing children's sports for charity. Joe was the ref at one of my games and caught my eye. I mustered enough courage to ask him if he was going to the bar after the game (all games ended at the local bar that would donate proceeds to our charity of choice). Luckily he said yes and that we'll catch up there...fast forward 9 years later, we've been living together for 7 years and he popped the question!
