Where did you meet your SO?

I argued with a girl on a web forum, went to see her one day as I was to visit my shag-box lady friend in the same town. Saw her, said hello and promptly fell in love. Still haven’t recovered.

Mail ordered from Grip Cycles in January 2008, might need to upgrade her soon.

My wife picked me up at a nurse’s party in Newcastle.Twice,I kept falling over.I went to the party with someone else,went home with the wife ,and together ever since.

Met my wife in Colorado. She was at a bar in Breckenridge with her friend and a couple of guys. I went over and mowed another mans lawn. We’ve been married now for 2 years.

The New Star in Ibiza. We were, as you would expect, pretty out of it at the time…

She’s still far and away the person I most enjoy spending time with 14 years later so the drugs must have been alright..

Went on a failed ‘not date’, crashed and burned. Decided i’d go to my sisters birthday party…. met her house mate.

Now married!

We had mutual friends, her then boyfriend was a mate of Chris’ my housemate. Used to see her in pubs and stuff, didn’t pay her much attention because I thought she was straight, and she was a bit aloof (she had a rep for being a bit of an ice queen) Met again at a longest day party that me and Chris threw, got talking and If I’m honest I fell pretty hard, we got on really well, We started hanging out, clubs, shopping, stuff like that, boyfriend was quietly dumped. meanwhile I was going slowly mad what with me fancying her. It all got a bit messy in the kitchen one afternoon, I told her how I felt, she didn’t run screaming from the house, we’ve been together ever since.

*stick’s finger down throat* Sorry LOL

The gym.

Yes indeed, it was the picture house, though I had “encountered” one of her friends in reef bar before then. 8 years ago that was. Even more suprising is that I buggered off round the world for a year within 6 months of meeting her.

Walking past the entrance of a dark alley

My lil sister brought her round to my flat one afternoon..
We spent an hour or two making eyes at each other while my sister prattled on as she’s prone to doing..

Two days later I was sat in the pub with some mates.. when the same girl walked in.. strolled up.. and attempted to snog me to death..

My sister didn’t speak to either of us for six months and I didn’t see the girl again for nine years..

Then I bumped into her again at my sisters one afternoon.. which then led to her tracking me down on facebook.. bada bing bada boom…

Mrs starship worked behind the bar of my former local pub. That was 17 years ago.
Still totally in love with her.

We met on (I think) the first ever STW weekend at Dalbeattie about 8 years ago. We were both, separately, on the campsite. Apparently the owner put us on adjacent pitches deliberately. We had a blether, I thought she was with someone else, then she got in touch on here. Happy days!

Uni, same college and some common lectures. Didn’t actually start going out until the end of first year while on holiday (although everybody else thought it was inevitable).

We had both spent our summers prior to Uni doing expeditions (she was in Bolivia and I was in Canada). I pursuaded her that she should take up kayaking so that we could spend 2 months kayaking down the west coast of Canada.

Been together for 9 years in July, getting married in March.

the old goth/punk club “Chicos” in Hanley.

yer mum’s house 😉

Really? She’s 83. Still I suppose I can’t begrudge her a little happiness at her time of life.

hmmm old ladies, all that experience and if you’re lucky a little parkinsons shake will make things more pleasurable

that CFH he’s not daft you know 😉

So rumours are true….. the Cpt only pack a little happiness 😉

Sooo long story short, a girl asked a question about helmets on another forum. I replied and got off really well with her. Visited her in Warsaw once when I was flying home. Needed a place to stay so her best friend offered her aunts flat as it was empty at the time. We had a small party there, her best friend was nicer and I fell for her. When the friend saw us all romantic together she threw a glass on the floor shouting “how could You?!”. That was over three years ago, they are no longer friends, loads of flying over to see each other later we are now engaged and her ex best friend is now a lesbian 😀

We call her cupid.

Christ a few from Stourbridge on here aswell as gherkin.. Piccy house was a laugh back in the day! Never went to Reef bar when it was that, never been since its “Heaven” Gentlemens club for that matter either! The words Heaven and Stourbridge you rarely hear in the same sentence.

I have a particular liking for ladies from the continent Ex was Dutch and met her while working in Motorsport and ended up spending lots of time in the NL, and the current is Estonian who i met through mutual friends.

Went on a charity walk up Ben Nevis, at the briefing sat in front of a group of girls, one of whom was rather loud and cocky and I thought she’d do my nut in if I had to sit near her on the 13 hour bus journey to Fort William.

16 years and 2 kids later, she still does my head in, but I’ve learned to love her anyway…..

We met at work , she caught my eye when she came for the interview and we ended up being great mates for 18 months then 1 night we were out clubbing (metal club) and they ran out of her boyfriends beer.

When this happened he would leave her with his mates and go home! 🙄

We were sat talking and ended up snogging a whole lot , the boyfriend got told to sling his hook the next day. it’s been nearly 21 years and 2 kids(6 years and 9 weeks) we’ve been together now and it just gets better.

We both commented on a mutual friends facebook status. Invited myself to a dinnerparty she was goung to. She’s gorgeous and I’m very happy 18 months later.

still looking, email in profile 🙂

in a bedsit house 17years ago, she moves out next week so i guess that makes me a single dad to a 14yr old son and 15yr old daughter.

She worked at a Library I was doing some work on. Apparently she was in the year below me at School but I cant remember her what so ever – i do her mates though.

Chatted at the Library, then stumbled upon her in a village pub one new years eve. Midnight kiss got out of control. That was 7 years ago, one marriage and one 13wk baby later.

initially on match.com, first face to face meet was in the vegan cafe in the basement of manchester buddhist centre for tea and cake.
they’d ran out of cake and the water boiler wasn’t working. 9 hours later, i dropped her off at her flat and it seems we were both well and truly smitten.

Pickwicks nightclub, Bradford, near the Uni; Jan 1988. I’d dropped out of my course and was now working, she was in her second year doing Psychology. Lot of mutual friends too, but if you knew Pickwicks, you’d know that.

took 11 years to get the ring on her finger, and now we celebrate our 12th wedding anniversary in June. No kids, sadly missed out on that.

After a number of years working for Nottingham Gay Switchboard and going out to the pub after looking for Mr Right I was sick of hunting so I thought I would go out just to meet mates and have a laugh. The next night I met the better half of AdamW! That was 16 years ago!

So kids,regardless of sexuality, when you stop hunting, you generally find!

at school some 20 years ago. weve been married two and a half years but together for 3.

Asked my wife “would you go out with me” at 16. I used to ride my bmx to take her home from school. It will be 20yrs later in October 🙂

We went to the same secondary school, started going out at sixth form – about 16 years ago.

b3ta.com 🙂

She’s quite simply the most amazing human being I have ever met.

On a ride

I know this is a bike forum but am I the only one who met their other half at a bike race? 2007 National Points Series, Rd2 Sherwood Pine
[EDIT] Other than Smokey of course! Assuming you meant bike ride and weren’t just being presumptous…

On love@lycos, 10 years ago last week. God bless the internet.
