Love that!! I feel like having a class together can really bring you close to somebody! Did you start dating in high school or later on?

View Quoted Comment We started dating in high school. It was november of my junior year and his senior year and the rest is history ! 9 years later and were getting married in september !!!! 🥰

We used to work together. He would pick on me, make fun of me, bully me, try to be funny, pull pranks on me. I thought he was just being mean. Turns out he liked me meanwhile I was crushing on him hard. I don’t believe in workplace romance so after I quit the job, he asked me out 10 days later.

I met my FH at our job we were working at together. I found him and I had a crush on him. Turns out he was checking me out as well. One thing let to another. He messaged me on Facebook and we started dating a few months later

We met when we were kids on Gaiaonline.com, which is an avatar based forum website. There are people on there of all ages, and one day we were in the same chat room and we just started talking. We became okay friends, and after a couple months (or maybe it was a couple weeks) he told me he liked me and I told him he was creepy and to go away. He told me one day I will love him, and didn't go away. And he was right.

We happen to meet at a store, come to find out I had been taking care of his son and daughter for over a year. Everyone in the daycare had saw and knew who he was but me. That still seems so strange to me that I never saw him until our time together... crazy how love works

I met my FH at a Halloween attraction that we were both working at. I played a creepy nurse and he was a “butcher” in the next room over. Couples who scare together, stay together! We love Halloween!

We met through school. We both attended the Art Institute of Las Vegas and it all started with our first class together when we ended up in a group together for a class project. Things just kind of sky rocketed from there and I couldn't be happier. He's helped me through more than I could have ever imagined.

I love it!!! What a fun story, Halloween is the best!!

My FH, Alex, and I met years before we actually started talking. We had some of the same mutual friends but we never really ever had any interactions. I would see Alex at a bar I frequented and just chalked him up to being another pompous and arrogant guy. He always walked around with confidence that made me think he was a jerk. (He is also really good looking as well). I had been single for some time and had been recently disappointed by a short-lived thing with someone which turned me off from dating anyone else for a while. I also had tentative plans to go on an adventure with a good friend of mine to Maui. There was a fellow that had been trying to take me out for a few months that I finally just said, sure why not?. We went out a couple of times and I just didn't really feel any chemistry with him, and I was also still bummed about the recent fellow that didn't work out. I ended up going out with bad chemistry guy out one more time, mostly to tell him I wasn't really interested in anything more than friendship, and he was talking to Alex outside when I was walking up to the bar. After we sat down inside I snidely said, why were you talking to that guy, and he said "who, Alex"? I said, "yeah, that guy seems like a real jerk". To which he responded, "well you have obviously never talked to Alex before, he's a really good guy". So a few days pass and I am back at that bar and I had just met up with some friends after work and popped downstairs for a smoke in the smoking room. Low and behold, there is Alex sitting alone. I sat quietly staring at my phone and he would make a comment here and there trying to get me to engage in a conversation, but I would only give one-word answers. Eventually, he started talking about his sister's dogs and showed me a picture of one of them. Dogs are my weakness so I started to talk with him more. We kept running into each other more often at this bar. Secretly, I was making it a point to go to this bar more often than I normally would, in hopes I would run into him. We would make it a point to talk to each other or show each other stupid memes or videos on social media we thought were funny, but it never really spanned beyond anything more than that. I also knew he was much younger than me, and I didn't really think he was in the market for dating, and I was still a little bit jaded and not really interested in getting involved with anyone.

One night he came to the bar and had mentioned that he had a lot of fun with me and wanted to hang out more. I was really hesitant to give him my number but upon encouragement from a close friend, I decided why not? I delivered my number with the caveat was that I wasn't looking for anything more than friendship and to which he also shared that sentiment. 4 days went by and no word from him, nor did he show up to our favorite bar. I figured I scared him off, and just went on about my business. I thought he either is waiting to call, like a gentleman, or he just wasn't interested. After a week he finally texted me to hang out, and I had a wretched cold at the time. After I felt better, I invited him to go to a festival on the other side of town with me. This was, unfortunately, our first date...He was such a pig. He was burping, farting, drinking like a monster, picking his nose and talking about other girls he was hanging out with. I was completely not interested in him at this point. We left this festival and drove back to the bar we frequented and I was eager to ditch this dud. I noticed the guy that I had just ended things with was up at the bar, so I decided to dip out the back door and go home. As I was leaving, Alex stopped me and said are you leaving? I confirmed that I was tired and wanted to go home. He said ok well do you want to hang out again soon?, and I said maybe and that I would text him. He then went in to give me a hug goodbye and kissed me. The kiss was AMAZING. The entire horrible date we just had was washed away in that instant. I then told him that I would really like to hang out with him again. We have been hanging out ever since and we will be getting married on the 6 year anniversary of that crazy first date.

1st Date

Engagement Photoshoot

At a festival in downtown DC while ordering drinks at a bar

Ken and I met through friends at my home town festival. I was living with my brother temporarily at the time and we were hosting friends at our house across the street from all the festivities. My good friends brought Ken with them and introduced us. However I was seeing someone else at the time. We became good friends and we had our first date beginning of September 2017. I did friend-zone him after a couple dates because i wasn't over my ex, but we continued to go on dates and hang out regularly until March of 2018 when i realized i couldn't live with out him and he asked me to be his girl.

We were neighbors. He moved in across the street as well as he was my brother's school mate. He always had long hair, very nice hair. One day he was in our driveway with my brother, looking at a car, and I came out noticed he cut all his hair off. Although, his hair was gorgeous, I definitely noticed him now. We started talking May 5th, 2012. We would sit outside every night for hours just talking. We were inseparable after that. He asked me to be his girlfriend September that year.

We work together we started that same day. We became friends now look at God now we engaged. Lol

We met in the Fire. Literally, a place in Philly called "The Fire" Feb 2016. He was a friend of my friend that I went to the event with. He was Dj-ing and wouldn't stop staring at me when i walked in. He always says it was love at first sight. lol We became friends, partied together, made bad decisions lol eventually moved in together, and got engaged to be married 8/10/19

We met online. But apparently he's been down the road to me all along. We went to the same school, knew the same people and hung out at the same spots.

He moved a washer and dryer for me on his birthday. Of course I didn't know it was his birthday at the time, lol.
