    I meet my fiancé on tinder date site. I want just on there to talk to guys to get out there a little. Walter and I were talking for about two weeks before we went on our first date. We ended up talking to about two in the morning. ❤️❤️Our third date he asked me out. We have been strong since the beginning.

    His dad got a job as the principal of our school, so he moved there in junior high. We started dating our junior year of high school, and 7 years later we got married!

    We met on eharmony! He was deployed at the time, so we met in person 6 months later; so long distance for a year and two months! I moved down to live with him after school was out. We’ve been together for two years and four months (but we really say it’s when we started talking, because we both knew we were the ones after that 😂). The long distance was the biggest key to how strong our relationship is to this day! 💕

    We met in high school, but never dated. We connected on our mutual avoidance of relationship statuses...go figure. We remained friends for years and through other relationships then reconnected. Even when we started dating, we denied it to each other to avoid the stigma🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️. Now, 19 years and 3 kids later, we are making out union official on our terms. Yeap, works for us, slow and steady wins the race right? 🥰🥰🤪

    neither of us even use it anymore, after we met in person we deleted it!
    So he originally messaged me a year before we got together and I totally ignored him, but he tried again and I gave it a chance cause I was bored. We talked a lot and most of what he said was smooth bull crap lol. He wasn’t planning on anything serious like he said he wanted. He just wanted to talk to anyone. It was obvious later lol. He lived an hour away and we became penpals (that’s my hobby, he hates it but pretended he didn’t for me), we would write each other love letters and I would draw him and send him goodie packages (he didn’t put in even half the effort but I didn’t care). We got in an argument online about him not being honest with me about himself, and it ended in him telling me he loved me and to give him another chance, so I did. We met 11 months later in person and we were so nervous. We held hands and barely said a word for like an hour, my brother didn’t approve of him, my dad seemed to like him (my dad use to hate all my boyfriends lol) but he for some reason liked Bryan. He kept being sneaky for a while and we almost broke up a few times, he had never been in a serious relationship and the only one he was in he got cheated on, so he basically had the mentality that love doesn’t work and he’s not counting on it. He wasn’t serious for several months. And I was more than serious, I had already fallen in love with the man I knew he was deep down. He has a big heart but around that heart he had a lot of walls (I did too but I always trust easily). He had surgery the year before last and I stayed with him for a week as his caregiver, I had to do things I never thought I could or would do, he was completely exposed to me in a vulnerable state and he would get angry at me just for seeing him like that, but then one night I caught him crying and he admitted to me no ones ever loved him like that and that he doesn’t know how to take it. I kept trying to make things work, so to fully commit to helping him I moved in with him. That was a year ago. Everyday I write him a love letter and wrote him full passages from the Bible (we are both Christian) this was harder for me than it seems (I wrote from the heart like 3-5 pages a day) and he would ready them before going to work, over time I noticed him paying attention to things he didn’t before, he acted differently and did nice things for people. He would open the door for me occasionally and bring me home a piece of candy (small gestures). He stopped hanging with people that got him in trouble, completely they aren’t in his life anymore. He started to read the Bible again. And he started writing me little notes like “thank you for being my angel” “thank you for pulling me out of the dark” “I don’t know where I would be without you”. I continued this for so long and now today, he reads the Bible a lot. He got promoted at work twice. He’s healthier. Happier. More involved. He’s committed, he asked me to marry him and is talking about having a baby and buying a house. He has changed tremendously and he tells me once in a while that I saved him and that god put us in each other’s life for a reason. Before we met, I was going through a full blown depression, and had frequent thoughts or self harm, I was also in therapy and on medication. Since we’ve met, I’ve lost 60 pounds (I was well overweight), I am out of therapy, off medication, I am healthier and live a fuller life. We both live in my home town closer to my parents now, we left where he use to live and that was a huge step for him and a sign of his commitment. I never gave up on him and I am about to marry the man I always knew he was.

    FH and I met in college. We met because his roommate introduced us. We were both dating other people at the time and his roommate wanted to try and date me🤦🏻‍♀️We just clicked and became best friends! The whole time we imagined and talked about what it would be like if we dated! He helped me find a job in NC so I moved down south to teach and be with him. We were best friends for 7 years before we started to date and I can’t imagine my life any other way!

    We met at the gym on the stair master! He was on the machine next to me and started talking to me. Our “first date” was going for a run on the beach. Then we went on real date to dinner. 😀

    He added me on Facebook. Then my best friend wanted me to go on a double date with her... So I took a leap of faith and invited him! 8 years later and we’re happily engaged Smiley smile

    I met my FH through my brothers wife, my FH is my sister in laws brother lol kind of confusing I know. My FH was “away” and wanted someone to talk to so my sister in law decided to introduce us to each other over the phone. We talked for about 3 or 4 months before actually meeting each other I was 20 he was 25. First time I seen him I automatically said to myself that’s the man im going to marry one day 😌 we had a blast together unfortunately things beyond our control happened and we went our separate ways. 7 years passed and I never thought about getting married ever again until five years ago when we got back together still madly in love with each other and now finally planning our wedding 💕

    I originally messaged him first on Twitter in early 2017 after thinking he was really insightful and good looking -we followed each other because of mutual friends, we hadn’t ever met. Fast forward 4/5 months later after some off and on messaging we ended up running into each other at Flux Pavilions show in Dallas. He (we) started crushing hard and we made it official a month or two later. I later found out he got a ticket to the show we met at just because he knew I was going. He was tired of waiting around and wanted to finally meet me 😂

    I’ve known my fiancé since 8th grade. I was an army brat and moved around a lot and it was a new school in a new place, so I didn’t know anyone. Despite that, he noticed me and asked me out. I rejected him (mostly cuz I wasn’t sure what else I was supposed to say. You don’t really date in middle school lol). Our junior year of high school we happened to be in a couple classes together. I was talking about a problem with a boy in a math class that my fiancé happened to be in and suddenly my fiancé’s friend said to the boy, “that’s Dylan’s girl.” Of course I was confused, but a couple months later he threw himself into a conversation I was having with a friend and managed to get my number. A couple weeks later he asked me out again and I said yes. We’ve been together for over five years now, and I’m so happy I said yes the second time around. We get married November 2nd ❤️

    We met on Bumble. After many bad dates that week I almost didn’t go but figured why not. It helped that he said “be cool, meet me”. I was like...I’m totally cool! Hahaha I was expecting another crash and burn...I’m so glad I went out.
