When I met my husband, I was out with a friend at a local bar. Wasn't "looking" to meet anyone. A friend of mine also knew my husband and introduced us. He would come over and chat with me and my friend or strike up a conversation at the juke box. I played it cool as though I wasn't interested. We ended up talking a lot that evening and he drove me home. That was 18 years ago. I think sometimes when we don't try so hard, or even at all, that's when find someone.
So, what happened with you and the girl? Are you still together?
ended up being short term, fun while it lasted though!
More times than I can count and I was smart enough to recognize the uniqueness of each individual/situation. The encounters always proved to become a great time for all and for varying lengths of time. I smile thinking back but who knows when the next will be?
I went to a party hosted by a good friend. I was there only to have fun. One of my friends alerted me that the man across the room was watching my every move. At that point, I cut out some of the silliness. He came over to talk and we talked for a while and exchanged numbers. He called the next day and came to visit me two hours away. A year or so later, my job took me to to area and we continued to talk off and on. Strangely enough, after a year, a woman and her baby moved into the apartment next door. We became freinds. I noted that the baby looked a lot like the man that I had met at the party. Eventually, he told me that the child was his and I cut my contacts with him. The child's mother and I are still very good friends. All of us are still friends. I only told her that I met her child's dad at a party. I never told her the whole story because he was fun to be with, but not for a long term relationship. Small, small world.
I've never really "looked" for someone and that's never stopped me from meeting men. I think that's part of the reason I've never had trouble meeting them, I come across like I don't care and they like it. I met my husband while I was minding my own business and he approached me.
I met a former boyfriend through YouTube. He happened to see a post I'd made on a channel he was subscribed to, went to my channel, saw a vlog I'd done, and we began exchanging (friendly) messages. Ended up in a VERY long-distance relationship, on opposite hemispheres! Lasted around 2 years, but was a very exciting time.
Met my current boyfriend at a time I guess you could say I wasn't looking... The day after I cancelled my membership to Match.com (after just a few days into my membership), I got a message from him. He noticed I'd "favorited" his profile, and wrote me a message that was so funny and charming that I had to write him right back. I didn't realize he'd even be notified that he was a favorite.
I remember once outside a public library a pretty girl asking me to borrow my phone cuz her cell died. After she used it, I made a crack to the effect "should I delete your number from outgoing calls or start stalkerishly texting you", to which she replied she wouldn't mind talking to me and we exchanged names and chit chatted a bit, later got together. It was blind luck, her battery died, she was waiting on a ride, and I was the next schlemiel walking out of the building. I didn't really have some great swagger, or "lines" and wasn't particulary dressed up. Anybody else have similar anecdotes?
Many times. I usually end up getting a BJ.
