Sorry, you're right. I think there have been a few other posts asking essentially the same question.

Get's confusing.

Especially for us older folks.

Hmmm.....

We met three years ago today!
 

My boyfriend and I were introduced by his friend at a bar on St. Patrick's Day three years ago. I was actually "seeing" his friend, but that wasn't serious. We all went out a couple of weeks later and his friend was supposed to meet up with us. Well, he was late, Paul and I started talking, and we have been together ever since! The three of us are all still friends! :)

I met my husband online. He asked me out, and I wasn't going to say yes, but my mom talked me into it. I'll bet she regrets that now...lol.

We were set up:rolleyes: on a blind date by mutual friends. Our first date we went to dinner and barely said 3 words to each other the entire time and didn't talk anymore after that night. That was 3 years ago. A few months after that first "date", we saw each other at a club, finally talked, and ended up dancing together the whole night. We finally exchanged numbers and have been together ever since--it'll be two and a half years in July.:D

Still with him :D Starting to talk about the more serious things that occur in a relationship too! And I am still as happy as I was the day we decided we were going to be together. I think he might be the person that I was meant to be with ;)

Yep, yep, yep. Still together. Married for 3 years in August. Together for 8 years in October. Life is good. :cool:

Amycat - that was so cute!

I met my SO at work. I was transferred after a month and only remembered that he was so cute, and when I came back after 4 months, he was still there and we'd talk about the school newspaper together during breaks. We started to hang out a lot and then one night I asked him "can I call you mine?" and he said yes and we've been together for 3 years now!

I met the SO at a total white-trash/redneck bar. LOL. We keep claiming that we're going change the story b/c it's embarassing to admit that to anyone who knows this area.

We had a mutual friend who kept telling me that I had to meet him, so she decided to invite us both to karaoke one night. When she called him to invite him, he asked who would be there, and she told him it would be her, her then bf (my best friend), another friend, and me. His first question was whether or not I was hot-lol. When I showed up, I guess I passed inspection b/c he pulled me a chair up beside him. By the end of the night he was playing with my hair and hugged me three times before I left. The next night we talked online for about 2 hours, then on the phone for another 4 hours. Two days later we decided we were exclusive.

Eights months later (July was a good month, Amy :)) we live together and have incurred enough mutual debt that we're stuck together for a long time ;) Seriously, we're discussing getting married next January in Vegas :D :D :D

July WAS a good month :)

I first met Alan when I was a sophomore in college (1998). I worked in the computer lab, and he would come in and talk to me and flirt with me. I had a serious boyfriend at the time and didn't even realize he was interested in me as anything more than a friend.

Then, last March (2002), we were both back in our college town, and were re-introduced by a mutual friend. I was there on a date with another guy, so we pretty much just said hi, and found out that we were both living in Milwaukee now.

A few weeks later, he calls me... our mutual friend had given him my phone number... we started hanging out together, doing things from time to time... I was skittish because I'd just had a VERY BAD thing happen to me relationship-wise (what do you mean you've been married for 3 years?) so even though he wanted more, I kept it on a very low-key, just-barely-dating level... but as the months went by I realized I liked him a lot more than that, and I shouldn't let my experience with married-boy wreck things with Alan.

July 5th, I suprised him by asking him if I could call him my boyfriend and we could be exclusive :)

November 1st, I moved in with him :)

And we are hopefully getting engaged this summer :D

My boy and I are still together. We've looked at rings, I've picked out what I want, and we're tenatively thinking next summer for the big event.

He's hinting that he's going to propose soon...so, we'll see. I keep trying to psych him out and have him give me a hint, but no luck!

I didn't post before, but DH and I met in August 1986 (he was a Grad Assistant in Student Activities and I held a position on the Student Activities Board. Thank heavens for required campus activities :D) We started dating in October 1986, were married in May 1988, and are celebrating our 15th wedding anniversary this year.

I met my bf in a bar on the Upper East Side. I was full of Cosmopolitans.:p

H and I met also met at a cheesy sports bar!

It's funny because we've both been going to Martini Night at a restaurant every Wednesday and we never met each other until a mutual friend introduced us. After Martini Night one night, we all headed down to TJ's Sports Bar and we were introduced at the bar.

I wasn't attracted to him at first because I knew that he was significantly older than me...fifteen years, to be exact. An hour [and a few beers later], we were in a deep conversation about tattoos and I began debating whether or not to give him my phone number because I started to think that he was cool to hang out with. He beat me to the punch by giving me his...so I quickly gave him mine.

We ended up closing the bar down and we talked some more in the parking lot. I had to take a friend of mine home and I could tell that she was getting irritated because I was taking a long time. Things got crazy when I found out that he drove a Lotus--so he took me flying down Kapiolani Blvd. and I'm like, "I feel like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman...except for the whole hooker part."

It's still new and we're still getting to know each other, but we've been inseparable since that night.

OTW: Wow! A Lotus??!! Does he have a brother? :p

You all are so lucky. In these uncertain times I wish had someone to hold.
