I met him on a ski trip. I was in the lodge with friends having a drink when we started talking. He was very cute and fit and funny. His face was tanned from skiing all day and his eyes were a bright, sparkling green. He spent the rest of the weekend giving me ski tips/free lessons (he used to be a competitive skier) and it has been love ever since. We are still skiing together, now with our kids in tow.
I have always told my girlfriends that ski resorts/lodges are one of the best places to meet eligible men. I think skiers tend to be fit, educated, financially secure (it's an expensive sport) and the male/female ratios are excellent. Lots of attractive guys for a girl to choose from! LOL
I met the girls I currently am in a relationship with through music. I spent a lot of time on the forums for music I liked and quite often would be the one to organise a "pre gig meet up" if the bands or singers I liked were playing locally. I would post the name of a pub, a time, and my contact details in case anyone got lost and simply show up and act as the social lighthouse all these fans would meet around and socialise.
Through this I met the girls and slowly things developed between us from there.
I met my wife On a chat line but I didnt in tend on marrieing her I screwd up we had a one night stand she ended up pregnet every one told me do the right thing & marrie her well it ended up being the wrong thing to do we dont love each other this is my 2nd time around wev ben to gether 15 years now & have 4kids together.
She'd come over from Ireland and was staying at her aunts house in my street for the summer (we were 16) and we hit it off, she went back to Ireland at the end of the summer but we stayed in touch.
When she was 17 she came over to England to go to University and when 20 we got married and we've now been married for 20yrs.
Well, I met my fiance on the school bus! We were childhood friends, next door neighbors... best friends all through high school. We both had feelings for one another, but were afraid to be honest about it and ruin a good thing.
We dated other people, yet still remained friends.
One day, at age 20, I decided to tell him how I felt. After all, here I was dating jerks, and this wonderful guy was right here under my nose! So, I mustured up the courage, and we started dating. We fell in love- just like the storybooks- and it's been 6 wonderful years since then.
We have our hard times. but, all in all, he is my best friend. he was my best friend long before we started dating, our connection runs so deep, there is no way I could be without him!
I recommend dating your best friend! Best move I ever made!
In church. He was the perennial "bad boy", the one all the mothers with daughters feared - and we became close friends. I used to set him up with all of my girlfriends, but for some reason they never worked out. We were tight - got into all kinds of trouble together, covered for each other, had a lot of fun together.
Then I "fell in love and was swept off my feet" by his roommate. We got married and I traveled all over the country with his roommate. BUT - His roommate was violently abusive, got arrested for stealing on the air base where we lived and he worked, ended up with a dishonorable discharge and prison time; and seven years later I was divorced with two kids.
So my old friend and I started hanging out again, just having fun and dating, and then he had me and my sons move in with him. When my ex showed up, he stood up to him (no one else in the church would, they talked about "forgiveness" and "wifely duty") and ran my ex off - still the "bad boy" according to the church! So we got married (not in the church) and they threatened him with excommunication! He told the preacher "F___ you, I love her and the kids, and if her ex comes near us again I will kill him." He adopted my sons, we had a daughter and raised foster children together, and we never stepped foot inside that (or any) church again or ever saw my ex again. 30 years later we are still - friends! And he is still a VERY "bad boy"! LOL
It's why I tell my kids - "love" is BS - marry a friend and you'll always have someone to talk to and grow with!
That was then this is now still have the kids and married 22 years
