world of warcraft, his exw put us together

Ugh, I really don't want to say which site we met on. It's so embarrassing! We just tell people that we met at Starbucks, since that is technically the first place we met (in person).

A lot of those sites are filled with creepers. I have no idea how I got lucky with FDH. It was completely unexpected, considering the 'competition.'

Met DH quite by accident!

Through the lonely hearts column of Private Eye, a UK paper. We then emailed for a while before meeting. I had already met dozens of men this way over about 18mths and although had some fun times, was ready to give up on it. DH was literally the last one I was going to see.

I met DH at a club that a friend/roommate & I went to every Saturday. We'd both left our husbands. Her (then separated) husband worked for DH. DH's mom got married that night & then my friends ex begged him to come out to the bar knowing we'd be there.

DH asked me to dance to give them time to talk. They worked things out. We worked things out. Everyone's happy!

He lived across the street from me when he was married. Our kids were friends. I was friends with his wife. I never looked at him twice. His wife left him, we started hanging out, and that was that!

Got fixed up by my BFF's (now ex)BF. But I didn't WANT to be in a relationship. I was content being a single mom and focusing on my son.

I got harassed by her ex-BF into meeting this guy. I went into the bar DETERMINED to be the biggest bitch this guy ever met (which is extremely ironic, given the psychotic woman he had give birth to his kids!) and sat between two guys at the table.

The guy on my right turned and said hello and introduced himself as (name of the guy I was supposed to meet). I let him buy me drinks but otherwise was a total you-know-what to this guy. After our dart game, we sat back down and I (deliberately) turned to the guy to the LEFT of me and started paying attention to him. He made me laugh and we got so caught up in conversation that I didn't even realize when the first guy left.

Turns out BOTH guys had the SAME NAME. You guessed it, the guy I was supposed to get fixed up with was the SECOND GUY!!

I have 2 stories

the first was my best friend was married to his best friend and they both kept trying to set us up but we refused b/c we knew the people that they normally hung out with was losers! But they tricked us one night and we met on valentines day! i was 19 and he was 21..I still remember that cowboy hat he was wearing lol.

We broke up after being together for a long time over stupid stuff as we were young and stupid.

Then 7 years later I was in lowes and trying to get something of the bottoms shelf when I fell backward and I landed on him! Yep I looked up and he looked down and said 'purple"? Umm yep that would be me! lol...

I met my DH at a mutual friends house in October of 2005. The following month we all hung out at a party and he asked me out on a date. We have been inseperable since that first date on November 11, 2005!!

Well, I met BM first. She was sitting in the coffee shop in the tiny town where the elementary school was that my daughter was about to go to. BM looked like a nice lady and as I grabbed a cup of coffee I asked her if she knew anything about the school up the road. So we talked about her kids going there etc. Then we talked several more times over the next year.
THEN, I started to teach crafts at the school, once a week, as a volunteer. And there was this 9 year old girl that always looked at me. She was clearly interested in me, but she did not smile. This was to be my future SD. Meantime I would see her get dropped off at school by her dad, a handsome but grumpy looking man in a big funky truck . So, almost as a challenge to this grumpy guy one day I said hi and smiled. His face started to shine and we talked in front of school for just a minute. Meantime his daughter befriended me and wanted to come over to our house, even though she was 2.5 years older than my daughter. It wasn't just a playdate with my daughter, she wanted a playdate with me too. So her dad and I got to know one another through her. DH then told me that he had first seen me a year before and as I walked into that same coffee shop in my overalls, he thought" who is that????" and wanted to know me.
Within a few months we got "close", and our kids spent a lot of time together. One day at the movie theater , we thought the girls were still sitting a few rows in front of us and we kissed quickly on the mouth, but they were behind us, and as we left the place, SD was furious and quiet and felt betrayed by both of us. We went our separate ways and she told her dad I was all wrong for him and on and on. He let her talk, then told her he heard her, but this is not in her hands. My daughter was not happy either, but not as vocal about it.
So ironically, it was first BM, then SD and then DH and SS. This was 8.5 years ago.

We met I swear to god on myspace, but I don't usually tell people that, I usually say at the mall because that is where we first met in person.

We met on a blind date. A friend of mine knew him through her work and knew that he had recently broken up with his GF. I was in the process of divorcing my now ExH. We both declined the date at first, but my friend is relentless! DH says that he almost didn't come at all, but he did thank goodness and the rest is history.

the wierd thing is that we went to school together, he was a year behind me, we had/have mutual friends, lived about 5 miles down the road from each other, actually went to the same church when we were little (our moms told us this) but never met and don't remember each other at all. He says if only he could have met me in HS and saved himself the BM/skid drama.....

I met my Husband through work. He and I were/are both Truck Drivers and we ran back to back together on a few loads and started talking. We talked for 6 months before we went out on a date.

He's been in love with me since he met me, well almost since he met me. A mutual friend tried to set us up, I was 14, he was 16, we went to a movie together, he freaked out on our friend because he thought I was like 12. Needless to say I grew on him quickly and he's been in love with me ever since. Like 16 years! We lost touch for a long time, 7 years or so due to his then GF (who he had the Skids with)of course she didn't like me after his mother got this brilliant idea to tell her that he was in love with me and she wished he and I would have got married. SO UNCOOL. Anyways we got back in touch, he was single and so was I and it went from there.
