    Hi, I'm a 26 yr old internal consultant for a financial firm in NYC.

    I am recently engaged to my 27yr old college sweetheart (we've been together 6 1/2 yrs) and we are getting married in Maine next September.

    We have one cat and a 29 gallon fish tank in our NYC apartment. As well as one of FI's groomsman who's been splitting is time between our couch and another friend's couch since August. Good thing he's an easy house guest!

    Hello Bees,

    No photos on the work computer, but I will chime in :) 21 year old Administrator and Safety Coordiantor for an oilfield company (law student by night as well!). FI is a 24 year old oilfield firefighter. We plan to move to a large city after the wedding in April so that he can transfer to a municiple fire department and so I can finish law school!

    We love taking advantage of the beautiful British Columbia outdoors and you'll find us off-roading, hiking, boating, and geo-caching on weekends with our pup Maximus :)

    Edit: Found one!

    Ooh fun! I'm a 24 year old social worker/mental health counselor (will hopefully be getting my license sometime in the next 6 months!) who just got married about a month ago. DH is 25 and works in finance. We've been together for a little over 3 years, although we've known each other for over a decade--we went to middle school together :) We live in NYC and lately my new obsession has been trying to convince DH to let us get a puppy. He's horribly allergic, so I'm not sure how well it'll work out!

    I am a 22 year old Business Systems Analyst for an Investment Firm in Pittsburgh.  I'm originally from south-eastern Massachusetts but moved here to go to school (Duquesne University) and couldn't leave the amazing cost of living.  Fi and I met in the spring of 2009 - he was a full time employee and I was an intern at the company that we both now work at and we hit it off quickly and started dating last May.  We moved in together last September and spent a month and a half in a tiny 1 bedroom apartment before moving into our house that we live in now (which he owns).  Fi is a 25 year old SQL Database Administrator and we spend most of our time hanging out with our 3 dogs (Gabby, Dudley, Tyson) and 2 cats (Charles and Louie).

    Hi everyone!

     

    I'm a 25 year old marketing director in a long-distance engagement (soon-to-be long distance marriage) with my 26-year old Army combat medic FI. A long distance relationship, followed by a long distance engagement has been the hardest thing I've ever had to do, but he's totally worth it. We met a year ago through a mutual friend and have traveled over 30,000 miles to see one another and build our amazing relationship.

    We're planning for a wedding on March 25, 2011 at the same garden my parents were married in 30 years ago. 

    Those of you with your FIs, DHs, or SOs within arms reach, give them a hug and truly appreciate how lucky you all are :)

    and now i'm a "consultant." LOL one generic title to the next.

    About me?  I am fascinating!

    OK, not really.  I am 28 and work in financial services in northern California.  My fiance is 30 and is a PhD student, studying educational policy, which is mostly stats, econ, and banging his head against the wall (but he loves it).  We're both from the NY area originally, and dragging our families out west for our wedding next September.

    I am part tomboy, part geek girl, and part snooty intellectual.  He's mostly a snooty intellectual, but he's better than me at sports.  I am a Jets fan and he is a Patriots fan, so most of our arguments are about football or chores.  We love dogs, but don't have one.  We love travel, but spend all our vacations back in New York.  I guess we just love our families more!

    Hello Bee's! I'm [almost] 24, my FH [Mr.TKE] is 25. We've been together since May 2007. We have a year for our wedding as 2012. I proposed to FH on our 9 month anniversary at a bar in downtown.

    I am a department manager at Hobby Lobby, he works from home developing his own business. Our lease specifically states no pets, except no pets so we have potted plants :)

    P.S. We are absolutely crazy!!

    Hi everyone!!

    I am a 25 year old student, graduating with my bachelors in May and hoping to go onto get a Masters in Education shortly after that.   I would eventually like to teach middle school or higher.  My FI is a 24 year old commercial fisherman.  We started dating in March of 2005 and were engaged in the middle of August!  We live on Cape Cod, MA and love it here.  It's where we both grew up, but we wouldn't dream of living anywhere else.  We love to spend time with friends and family, cuddle on the couch watching a movie, or watch New England sports teams (Celtics season opener is tonight!).

    @Entangled: I went to boarding school there and those years were the best of my life (well you know, until I met FH of course, lol) The state holds so many special memories and then there is its beauty!  The quaint towns, the chapels on the green, the stone walls, the hills, the fact that while driving along every single back road you feel as though its an endless panoramic postcard.  The calm relaxed non pretentious 'neihborhood' feel you get in each small town. Or when you walk into the grocery store while your car is still on...I just LOVE Ct, haahaahaaa  I keep telling FH our second home will be there Tongue out

My FI is 26 and a Financial Advisor.  We have been dating since Feb 2007 and got engaged last Feb.  We met up at school (GO GATORS), but found out we were both from the same area and had attended the same elementary school (obviously a few years apart).

    I'm a 24-year-old copy editor at a newspaper. The BF is a 30-year-old news director at a radio station. We live in Fort Wayne, IN but are on the lookout for opportunities elsewhere. We met online in May of 2009 and been inseperable ever since. It turned out we lived across the street from each other! We moved in together in August and it has been wonderful! We have a cat and are looking to get a puppy dog! And yes, BF knows about The Bee and loves that I have found it and can talk wedding all the time and not bore him to tears. :D
