Other. I first met my husband in a high school math class, although it was just a casual acquaintance type of thing (he was way out of my league). I moved to the neighboring school district the next year so I didn't run into him again until 3 years later, when we ended up running with the same circle of friends who I met through work and turned out to be very close friends of his. Anyway, I was waiting out his brief relationship with some train wreck of a girl, and after a respectable day or two, I swooped in like a black widow spider and informed that he was going to go out on a date with me. Eighteen years later, he's still caught in my web.

School. That wasn't an option in the poll.

How did you meet the person you are seeing?

I met my husband at a public pool.
I met my GF while out walking my dog. She lived nearby and was walking her dog too.

As for that thread you mentioned, I haven't read through it, but it seems like men need to pay attention to body language. Does a woman look receptive to the idea of a guy just coming up to her and saying hi? I'm sure pretty women get hit on all the time and I'm sure it gets tiresome. But I also think these women would be thrilled if Brad Pitt or some other really hot guy walked up. So it's not so much getting hit on out of the blue that bothers them, but rather the who.

Me and my dog met at a puppy pound. He was wrestling with one his brothers. He was the only puppy who refused to have his hair combed after a bath, so it was this giant messy mane. He looked like a baby lion.

Love at first sight.

My dog is my true love too. He's the most handsome man in the world.
