[steph.]

He moved into my house as my flatmate! Found each other on easyroommates.com lol should have seen it coming! We went out with a few friends the first night he moved in to get to know each other better. After a few drinks, he said he was attracted to me and we kissed We've been living together ever since.

I met my OH on the first day of 2nd form (12) although I don't remember he was in my class so we must have

we didn't see each other for half of a year til I transferred to his school, he asked me out and I said no then he asked me out again about a month later and I thought he was pretty cool then so I said yes.

then he dumped me on Christmas morning that year some guy in our class told him I was going to dump him and told me he was going to dump me, so on the last day of school he didn't even say goodbye.

Then we both went to different high schools but had mutual friends and would sneak out to see each other then we had sex for the first time and he got really freaked out and avoided the hell out of me for about 6 months, turns out one of his mates told him I was pregnant I transferred to his school again and became a bit of a trainwreck.. got quite wasted one night and went to his house and declared my undying love for him He told me he'd only ever see me as a good friend and of course we didn't talk for AGES after that.

My parents sent me to boarding school in Utah to get sorted out when I was 15 and thats when he told me about the whole pregnancy thing and told me he loved me too.. and that on the off chance I ever came back to New Zealand he really wanted to give us a shot.

I got back to NZ on 1st of January this year and on the 6th we went clubbing together and after a few I was all over him.. we called it official on the 12th because I may have had to shake off a hopeful in canada first we haven't looked back

And I got pregnant on our 6 month anniversary

I'd had a rough few years getting into crappy relationships that never worked out, being cheated on and hurt, and basically jumping from one guy to another so I wasn't alone. I was using a dating website but by that point I'd given up on finding someone and was still hung up on one of my exs.

Then one day out of the blue I got a msg from him on the website, and we started writing back and forth. Within a couple days, he travelled to see me (we lived 2 hrs apart) and the first time I laid eyes on him I almost fell over in a dead faint, he was so good looking. Never in my life have I ever anticipated a first kiss so much, and in that very moment I knew I'd met my soul mate.

Now he's my best friend, we've been living together since we met 2 1/2 years ago and I'm just waiting for him to pop the question (and hinting at it repeatedly, lol). I feel like I got really lucky to find him, our relationship is so easy and we rarely fight despite spending so much time together.

It just goes to show that you find what you're looking for when you're not looking

The way I met my now husband of 2.5 years (together for 4) was through my best friend Jenn. She was dating a guy named Kevin, whose best friend was Dave. I had heard all kinds of stories about this "Dave" character throughout the few years my friend dated Kevin but had never actually met him. I was in a longterm relationship with my "first love" and although he didn't always treat me right, I was desperately in love! So i spent all my time with him for about 6 years, still maintaining my relationship with Jenn but not as close as we were in highschool.

Anyway, one night i finally "saw the light" and knew I had to finally break it off with my boyfriend. 3 days later Jenn convinced me to go out for the night with her friend Dave with her, that he was a really funny and nice guy and we'd have a fun night. (not on a date or anything, just to hang out. i was THREE DAYS single and not looking for a relationship!) I wanted to get my mind off of the ex bf so I agreed. So off we went, from the second I walked into his house that night I felt he was a bit shy around me and this did not add up considering all i had heard about him. Jenn noticed too and was convinced he already had a crush on me. Apparently very unlike him, he was not a sappy kind of guy that went around getting crushes on girls and being shy around them...ever! That same night at a bar, while still sober!, a friend of his "married" us. (He apparently was an ordained minisiter via some online course, although who knows if that was actually true.) Either way, we have been inseperable since. Literally! we met on November 3rd 2007 and "hibernated" from then until the end of that winter, which means we only left his room to go to work then came right back. Ordered in food, stayed in bed "watching movies" and...doing other things that shall remain unmentioned...all winter long. We still look back fondly on our "hibernation"

We were engaged 9 months after we met, married 10 months after we got engaged, then finally got our BFP after 22 months of marriage. feeling so happy and fortunate!

At the Family Planning Clinic..

He was taking his girlfriend at the time to make her get the implant as she kept "missing" pills conveniently *cough* trap *cough*, and I was taking my friend down to get her implant taken it as it was making her ill.

He laughed while appearing to be looking right at me, and I said "Is there something funny?" And he said he was laughing at the poster behind my head.. I had "Chlamydia" right next to my head in big letters!

And friendship blossomed..

I met my OH September 2010. I came out to visit my dad in Illinois. I spent about 10 days out here. My dad suggested I hang out with some people my own age for a night or two. He called up my OH and suggested he come to a party my family threw for me. My OH showed up, we shook hands. I had spoken to him here and there on Facebook, he had added me a few months earlier. At that time we both were with others lol. But, we hung out that night by a bon fire and just talked and talked. We ate bbq together and talked more. He drove me home, I thought I'd never see him again. The next night, there was a car show in town. I went with my sister, and guess who we ran into My OH! He was there taking pictures of the cars, he was with a friend and he was following my sister and I around. He joked and said he was stalking me lol. He gave me his sweater to wear, because it was cold. After the car show, we went to his friends house to watch a movie and drank a beer or two. We watched McGruber. Worst movie ever but it's one of my favorites now haha. After that he dropped me off at my dads, hugged and kissed his cheek. While watching the movie he would kiss my forehead and tell me he was going to miss me.
I kept his sweater
He ended up coming to visit me in Denver for NYE, we talked all up to this point, made our relationship official on Nov 30, 2010. He spent NYE with me, met my friends and family. Then on Jan 7, 2011, I moved out to Illinois to my dads, few months later moved in with OH. We are now engaged and expecting (0bviously lol) And are planning a move back to Colorado Aug 2012. So happy with how my life has been going since last Sept. He's my best friend, I knew he was "the one" that first night I met him.

Sorry for the novel!!!!!

I met my DH at work. He had been my managers manager and still works for the same company in a different management role but was visiting. He was cute and smelled delicious. I had a stupid customer and I ran to the back, my boss was busy and I grabbed my DH and said "you're just sitting around so youre coming with me, this lady is crazy". He spent an hour with me and the stupid customer fixing a problem she created and something I had told her specifically not to do before.

Anyway, my boss told me that my DH thought I was attractive so I emailed him thanking him for his help and we emailed back and forth for a week until he said we should go on a date. Turns out that my boss totally made up what my DH said as he's a bit of a trickster but my DH had thought that anyway

We had a great date and I ended up staying the night ( no shenanigans it was late and I lived on the other side of town) we spent many nights together in the next few weeks.

When he asked my dad for permission to marry me (family is old fashioned and he wanted to respect their wishes but he would have married without blessing) he said that when he met me he just knew I was the right girl for him.

We've been together 3 years this month, lived together for 2, engaged since april and married in august with obviously a baby on the way . We've had some struggles, but I can honestly say I love him with my whole heart and we finally "get" each other. He makes me want to be a better person and he loves me just as much at my worst as he does at my best. He is truly my best friend.

I love all the stories! Here is ours:
We met, the day we were born. Well maybe we didn't really meet but we were crib mates in the same hospital. I was born at 1 am Sept 14 and he was born at 8 at on Sept 14. No Joke. We went to the same school together. We started dating my freshman year. Over all we dated for like 2 years or so. On again off again, as is high school. I actually ended up getting married after HS to someone else. We have a wonderful son together, but the marriage wasn't so wonderful. We divorced and then I found my DH online (facebook) and we ended up going out. We dated for about 6 months. We have been married about 6 years now. We still fight over our birthday, Its mine and I dont like to share it...
Well anyways When we got married we actually had to confirm that we were not siblings because of our birthdays and it being the same hospital. And anytime I have to give our birthdays out for something people do not believe me! Thats our story.
