    We actually met on myspace. We talked for a while, were supposed to meet up at a bar the night before Thanksgiving, but he didn't end up going out. For the next month we tlaked a few times here and there and finally he asked me if he should just delete my number. I'm so happy he didn't!

    Eight years ago in a kitchen!  He was the Sous Chef and I was a server at the country club where we worked.  We were friends for a couple of years before we started dating...had to check out the culinary skills : ).  I can't wait to marry my best friend and having a chef in the kitchen isn't bad either.

    We met a work, how typical, right? I remember the first time I heard him talk I went into a fairyland... such a firm, intelligent voice... then my next thought "he is probably engaged" (since he wasn't wearing a ring). What a weird thought, eh?

    We met at college. We were in the same dorm and he came to me with CRUSH troubles. Basically, I hooked him up with a girl he liked. I was the go-to gal for advice and such, but I never really got to know him until he broke up with said girl after a 2-year relationship. I never knew it, but apparently he always was intimidated by my awesomeness (HIS words). He assumed I had a line of boys tending to me (HA! FALSE! Those were all FRIENDS not BOY TOYS) and that his shy nature was not good enough for my outgoing ball-busting friends-with-all attitude (HIS words again...and FALSE). Boy, was he off base. I thought he didn't even notice me outside of the "dear sally" role! Huh. Boys are funny. They never truly grow out of that elementary school phase, I swear. Anyway, yadda yadda yadda years and a breakup and a reunion later...TA-DA!

    We also met at work.   We both worked at a ski resort and we were at the X games trials VIP party.  He threw his arm around my neck and said, "You're that doctorchick aren't you?"  He wouldn't let go of my neck, so when he asked for my number, I gave it to him so he just LET GO!

    He called for 3 years.  I turned him down for 3 years.  Finally he wore me down, and I said he could hang out with me once.  The only hitch was that I was working in Idaho for 2 months.  He drove out to see me and the rest was history.  Thank god he's persistent!

    We met at the Psychiatric Hospital...he worked with the kids, and I was doing my internship. I was drawn to him because he was so great with the children and he was pretty cute too! It was fun to tell my mom about him at first, because she definately thought I'd started dating a former patient. :)

    We met at my college freshman orientation.  I was auditioning for the marching band, and he was one of the upper classmen who were helping take us through the audition process.  Over the next *9* years, we were friends and housemates...then we fell in love. :)

    We met first day of freshman year in high school. I liked him instantly... and he couldn't have cared less...

    We stayed friends all throughout high school, and we started dating our senior year. We've been together since!

    We met in college - lived in the same dorm our freshman year.  Of course, we were both dating other people then, so we were just friends for a long time.  He finally asked me out 6 years after we first met.  And the rest is history.

    Technically we met when we were both in the same 4-H club when we were in middle school.  We put on an abridged version of A Midsummer Nights Dream and he was Demetrious and I was Helena.  Years later we started dating when I was a senior in highschool and he was a junior.  And we are having our reception in the same venue we held the play! Everything comes full circle.

    My junior & his senior year of high school! We were in the same health class, had study hall together, and had a bunch of mutual friends.

    We actually went to the same high school and same college, which I'm sure will make for a lot of nausea from our future children.

    TheMapChick    July 2009   Washington DC

    We met playing in an adult kickball league (yup, the grade school game with big red rubber balls and everything!). I was seeing someone else but we would always talk at the bar after our games. Finally, I broke it off with the other guy and we immediately got together! At first I joked that this would just be a fling because he is almost 4 years younger. 4 years later we got engaged!

    We met in the Beer Garden at a Stone Temple Pilots concert.  I was with my best friend and left her outside while I ran into the restroom.  When I came back out to join her, she was talking to him!  He was at the concert by himself because his brother ditched him at the last minute.  Well, of course we invited him to hang out with us and the rest is history!

    We met in Austria on a hiking excursion!  Even though we went to the same college and lived only blocks from each other every year, we didn't meet until we took an alumni Europe trip the summer after graduating.
