My hubby and I met in December 2001 at a going away party for a friend of mine. My friend was friends with my husband's friend lol. Does that make sense? He was 16 (a Junior in HS) & I was 17 (a Senior in HS). Anyway, we hit it off that night & have been together ever since (almost 9 years). We dated for about 4 1/2 years & then got engaged. We were engaged for about 14 months & tied the knot on June 2, 2007. We've been married for 3 years now & have a 13 month old son, Ethan. :)

One day in January 2007 I had a friend request on Myspace. I didn't know the person but looked on his profile and thought he's hot!!! So I accepted the request and we basically got talking on there and finally arranged to meet in May 2007. It was love at first sight. In Novmeber 2007 he proposed to me, March 2008 we got a flat together and June 2008 two days after my 18th birthday we got married. I fell pregnant in February 2009 finally after 15 months of trying and our son was born on 27th Novermber 2009. We have now been together around 3 1/2 years and married for nearly 2 1/2 years and still going strong =]

My older brother introduced me to my husband. I was having really bad luck with guys. Apparently, I had a nache for picking the worst ones out there. I had just found out that the guy I had been "talking to" for a month was engaged to be married, and I was furious. (He forgot to mention that he was even seeing anyone, let alone enagaged!!) I just couldn't see why I had the misfortune of attracting unavailable men, because he wasn't the first one. The next day, I was driving to pick my brother up from work, and I just thought about my situation over and over, and just got fed up. I had decided that I was the problem, and I was done picking my own boyfriends. when I showed up at my brothers' location, I told one of them my decision, and told him that if he thought he could do better picking me a boyfriend, then I was all for it. He called one of his co-workers and handed me the phone. We talked on the phone for about an hour and a half, while I was on my way home. We agreed to meet at a gas station outside of the town he lived in (since I needed gas, and he was right there) and we've been together every since! It wasn't love at first sight, by no-means, but when we talked, it was indescribable how much he complimented my personality. He was handsome and he could match me on an intellectual level like noone had ever before. We met in May, moved in together in September, and got married the following July. One day after our one year wedding anniversary, I found out I was pregnant, and now we have a beautiful 7 month old baby boy. We are the happiest couple that I know, and I have my fairytale life thanks to my big brother!!! ♥♥♥

Well... my fiancee and I went to school together from 3rd grade up until graduation... we didn't really start hanging out and being good friends til about 10th grade or the summer before or so... i started dating his best friend in may of our senior year and it helped to build a very close friendship... i think we always liked each other while we were dating other people and we were always hanging out and talking so we knew each other pretty well... that same fall, my then bf cheated on me and we broke up and my fiancee was there for me and getting me through the break up... his then gf had just gotten pregnant a couple months before and she was a big cheater, so no one knew who the father was, so they broke up and we just decided that we wanted to start dating and give it a try... almost 3 years later and we couldn't be happier... i love his daughter (who was his from his ex gf) and she abandoned her when she couldn't get my fiancee back, so i've been her mommy for about a year and a half now... i mean, we had our ups and downs and had some problems, but we got through those and we figured out how we were going to care for our daughter so i say i have one of the best relationships i have ever had and will ever have... i can't wait to get married to this wonderful man and be able to adopt his amazing little sweetheart. and i'm so glad that we decided to give it a try, cuz idk what i would do without him or my daughter in my life :)

Awwww! Jaime what highschool did you go to? our school put on the same play the same year! Well, My story is kinda funny. My husband ad i had known eachother for several years. i honestly can't tell you when we met, because i simply don't remember! We were both involved with an organization called young life which i started going to when I began dating a boy who went. After we broke up, he stopped going and I kept on! Over the next few years, I kept going and dated a couple more guys and whenever the guys i dated were having problems(ya i dated headcases, thank GOD I met my husband!) I would tell them to go talk to Ian or ask Ian to go talk to them. Finally after several years and several teenage boys, ugh! I was in my last year of highschool and my first year of college at the same time. It was really stressful, and in february of 2007 Young life was doing a winter camp. One of the leaders had told my mom about it, i hadn't because I didn't like asking for monetary things from my mom. she either told me to ask my dad which ended up in a lecture about my child support money, or she threw it back in my face that she paid for me to go. Anyways, she insisted that I go, despite the fact that I had just gotten over a really bad cold and we were going skiing.
Well the camp was 3 days long. The first night i didn't take too much notice of him. i was hopped up on cold meds, lol. The first day up the mountain, we had lessons. I noticed him because he was so crazy, he fell so much and had the craziest wipeouts but he always got up with the biggest smile on his face. He told me he noticed me because I took to snowboarding my first time like it was a natural part of me. At least, that's what he says lol.
We went to the local pool that night. I still wasn't paying too much attention to him, more to the guy he was sitting with he he. Afterwards, he was being teased by a couple of girls, he'd gotten an elmo sticker and they wanted him to give it to them so they chased him around and threatened to tickle him(he's now my personal tickle me elmo :) ) I told him I'd never tickle him so he gave me the sticker. It was so sweet! I actually think I still have it and this was 3 1/2 years ago.
So the second day up the mountain everyone was exhausted. The leader that I hung around with was doing paperwork all day and i wasn't the kind of person to go out on my own. Well, he came inside from being out with another kid that didn't go out on his own and sat down. He hadn't been there for five minutes when he suddenly jumps back up, and says "grab your board we're going out!" i tried to resist, but he refused to let me, so i dragged him down two hills. The first time back up the lift, my only request was don't fall on me! Well you guessed it! at the top of the lift, he bowled me over and i took all the impact on my knees. we sat there and laughed, trying to drag ourselves out of the way of the lift, and then i dragged him down another hill. Kinda stupid cause by the time I got back to the lodge I couldn't walk for two hours. Anyways, as we were on our way back to lodge he had THE MOST spectacular wipeout, went head over heels, I'm still surprised he didn't snap his neck lol. We fell in love that day and never looked back. We didn't date until after the year ended and I had graduated but nobody bothered with that. All they figured was that we were dating and had been since that february so they kicked us out. Despite that we didn't listen to them, we kept going out, moved in together, and got engaged on our 6 month anniversary, november 26th 2007. We were married seven months and one day later, on June 27th 2008. I was 18 and we found out about 10 days before that I was pregnant. Our son was born Feb. 11, 2009, and our daughter is due dec 14th! we're so excited!

This is too cute!
My hubby and I met in high school marching band. I am sure he had always been there (I moved into the school my sophomore year) but I had never noticed him till my SR year. He was actually hitting on a friend of mine but he caught my attention. I was seeing someone else so he was just a friend but my bf started being a brat and I dumped him and called my best guy friend to bawl about it (because obviously I didn't realized that men are terrified of tears then). A few weeks later he invited me to go to Zoo lights with his family. While we were there he made a sweet comment I still love to tease him about. He looked at me and said "All i want for Christmas is a girl friend" We dated on and off, I went off to college and he was still in HS, that didn't work so well, but we both kept coming back. Eventually we realized we were supposed to be together. We got engaged in Feb of 2001 but not married till Mar 2003 (my parents refused to help with college if I was married). We have been married ever since.

...Okay, this is a touchy topic for me and very long and complicated...Bullet time!

~ We met my freshman year, his junior year, at dress rehearsal for our school play, Fiddler on the Roof, in '05. I fixed his belt. He had a girlfriend from a different school that everyone mistook me for, because at the time we looked a lot alike, almost twins. He vehemently denies this, to this day.
~ I fell in love with him that summer after he had me backed against a wall in a coffee shop and was explaining to me how my eyes looked like "galaxies" for thirty minutes. We became close friends after that. He was still with the same girl.
~ We spent a lot of our free time at school together his senior year. We also had concert choir together and were almost inseparable during choir trips. He called me his best female friend. I think he may have fallen for me when we went to Branson to perform Phantom of the Opera for concert choir.
~ After he graduated, I didn't see him much until January of my junior year. We spent an entire day in the national park down the road from my parents' house. His girlfriend, still the same, accused him of cheating on her with me, though our relationship was entirely platonic. She dumped him in February.
~ In March he took me out to see the school play and asked me to be his girlfriend. I accepted and we dated for a month before his ex begged him back. He went back to her and we didn't see each other for months until he started working at Walmart.
~ He says he fell for me when he saw me at Walmart one day. I looked beautiful and it was like meeting me for the first time, he says.
~ We didn't start dating again until March of '08, and when we did we stayed together until June of '09. I had to break off our engagement and relationship because of a stupid move he pulled that resulted in losing his job and any way that we could be together, as he also lost his car and we lived an hour apart because I'd gone to college.
~ We talked a little on Facebook but only in August and September, and we never saw each other. We stopped all contact until December, when I couldn't handle being away from him anymore. I had to know if he hated me, and if not, could we still be friends and talk. I couldn't not have him in my life somehow. I was having nightmares.
~ January 15th, 2010, we decided to try dating again, but we wanted to take it really slow. We failed miserably, haha, and found ourselves pregnant in May.
~ June 16th, 2010, we got married, and have been happy ever since. :) Our baby Juliana Raine is due January 10th :) ♥

We met at the college here in town. I was 19 and he was 20. It all started when I started my program there I met this girl in my program and we became good friends. One day (about 3 weeks after the program started), we were in the library and she was talking to this guy. I found out from her that they went to highschool together and were good friends. He kept cracking jokes and of course I did not find them funny at all lol. A few weeks passed by and I wanted to go out for dinner and a movie for my birthday coming up, but didn't really know anyone in town as my family and I had just moved here a few months early. I was talking with my friend about this (the one I became friends with in my program) and I decided well maybe it would be nice if we could go out and you could ask that guy to come too. So she did. During the time we were out I kept telling myself, "this guy is definately not for me. I 'm not really attracted to him and I don't think I could ever even appreciate being out with him." Although I was touched by the fact he had gotten me a really nice gift.
A few more weeks had passed by and sure enough he got my number from our mutual friend and he asked me out. Still being unsure about him, I decided to go out with him to give it a second chance. And that's all it took. I was starting to really care about this guy. He had a great sense of humour and I wanted to know more. We ended up dating on and off for 5 or 6 years.
We had broken up and gotten back together 3 times. During our break ups, I was just miserable. I felt completely sick and hated myself for letting him go. I knew he was my true love and I needed him in my life. I swear when I say this, he is a human encyclopedia and he is a nurse and he has nursed me back to life at least a few times :-) I definately have my soulmate.
Now we have known eachother for 10 years and we have been married for a little over 4 years. We have 2 boys, ages 2 and almost 4 years old.

I met my boyfriend the first week of my freshman year in high school. He was my "best" guy friend, my shoulder to cry on for a few months before we started dating. Then we broke up 10 months after we started dating (we were very different people me, I was very into partying he was a good church going, drama club kind of guy). It broke my heart when we broke up. I moved on eventuality married my next high school sweetheart and 3 years later got divorced. So it had been 9 years since we spoke. I looked him up on facebook. It turned out he was in a relationship with the same girl for 9 years that had ended a few months before mine. We talked back and forth online then I gave him the "we should meet up sometime" line, not really serious about it. He called my bluff and suggested we meet that night. So we did we met for dinner and talked like a day hadn't gone by! I told him about my kids, my ex, he talked about work and his ex. He was stunned to learn that I no longer drink, and I was more stunned to learn he has the occasional drink.We finished dinner and we exchanged a very long hug were it just felt right like this is were I belonged and both drove away. A few minutes later I got a one line text that said "I forgot how easy you were to talk to". We have been together every day since.

Well I was working at a grocery store, and this good looking guy who worked as a manager at a dairy queen near the grocery store kept coming through my line at buying the same thing...an abundance of bananas and lettuce for dairy queen...a week probably went by and i finally said to him..." you come in here so much and i dont even know your name." he told me his name and handed me his card from his place of employment with his phone number on it and 2 days later i contacted him and we went on our first date....I love him more and more everyday

My husband and I took the same bus when I was 8 and he was 7. I asked my friend about him (because I was new to town) and she told me his name and that he was "smart". Ha. Didn't really get to know him because we were in different grades. In middle school we both got involved in the music program and by high school we had put together a band with a few other friends. He also started hanging out with my brother in middle school and they became best friends. We were just friends for years and then I went away to college and dated a whole bunch of duds. I came back home and there he was and it just seemed to make sense to be together.

I asked him out for coffee. He thought it was a friend thing so I then had to explain on our date that it was in fact a date. He was pretty pleased about that. It's been over 9 years now since then and married for 3! Time sure flies. And my friend was right - he grew up to be a clever engineer.

I first met mine online at 17. It was just a simple forum. We would talk and there wasn't really much to it. Our friendship grew and we began to talk on AIM. He was also really good friends with my best friend and was going around meeting the people he was chatting with in the forum. I thought he was cute when we first met in person... but I was in a relationship, not a good one, but one none the less.

We met up a couple times after that and then he invited both my best friend and myself over for a weekend. My friend couldn't go, so I went alone. I had broken up with my boyfriend about 3 months prior. We found that weekend that we had even more in common and the rest was history.

I absolutly love this post and reading everyone's stories!!! I met my partner and the father of my soon to be daughter due Valentine's day of next year when I was 10 years old and he was 9 years old! I thought he was almost the weirdest boy that I had ever met before. Our dad's both worked for the same company and they also did paper routes for the Des Moines Register. We would hang out while they waited to have their van's loaded. Our Father's became friends and we began to spend more time together. The more I hung out with him the stranger I thought he was and the more sure I was that he had a crush on me.



Ne way we then spent several years where are fathers weren't in contact with each other and then after my son was born our fathers started hanging out again and he was cute...not ne thing special but I thought oh well he wouldn't be interested in me ne way b/c I have a child...and I was 18 and he was 17!



Then last year in June I was going to get married and my dad said well David is coming and maybe he can give you a reason not to get married! I was like whatever dad! and then I saw him and I was like DAM LOL! He was looking dang good and that was the first I really looked at ne guy other then the one I was with...we ended up having to postpone the marriage but still had our little party and I was too embarassed to talk to David. I knew that if I did I would make a foul of my self and my guy at the time would have known that I thought something of him b/c I just get that look. Well then we never got married for certain reasons and he moved his stuff into another woman's place while I was gone. I decided that was it and i was DONE!



My dad then started telling me, "well I am pretty sure David is single...maybe you could go out with him" I just shrugged it off b/c I didn't think he would think that way about me...and then probably 2 months after that my dad said something again and I was like whatever I really don't think He'd be interested. Well then April 3rd my dad had David drive him over to my house to pick up my sister and her boyfriend and was like, "I brought David with me!!!! You should go talk to him!" I was like OMG I really don't think he'd like me! So after a cig and thinking about how dang good he looked I called my dad and said I am going out tonight and I am not as awkward when I have a few drinks if David wants to join us tonight! My dad told me that he'd let him know. I waited 2 hours called my dad back and said, "look I am a woman and I don't have a lot of patience!" my dad asked if I wanted to talk to him and I said I didn't that I am the girl he should be calling me. David called and we went out that night and then started hanging out almost every day and then it turned into every day we started dating 2 weeks later. We had both been so nervous about talking to each other! He told me that he had gotten my number from my dad 2 weeks before I invited him out. I now joke with him that we would have never gotten together if it wasn't for me. BUT he says he was too nervous b/c I was his first crush and he had always wondered what had happened to me. Makes me smile every time. We wish that we had gotten together sooner but everything happens for a reason right!?



We got pregnant less then a month after starting to date. and I love him more then I ever thought I could love ne one! I didn't even believe in love before I fell in Love with him and there are days were I love him even more and I didn't think it was possible to love him even more! I never would have believed someone if they told me I was going to fall in love and have a baby with that strange kid when I was younger! now I am so glad that I have!

WHat a nice story. I met my husband when I was almost sixteen and he was three years older then me. I fell madly in love with his best friend and he (at the time)was madly in love with my best friend Megan. MY hubby and I stayed friends for ten years before we started dating after he got divorced from Megan and they had a son together. He moved to where I lived and we moved into my grandmother's little house and got married last year the weekend right after thanksgiving. We have a little girl together. Named Zoe-Marie who's two and a haft and just as sweet as can be. And we are both artists too...He loves drawing and painting and working on his games for the Iphone. While I make art for my stories with photoshop. That he put on my mac laptop for me. I fall more and more in love with him every day of my life...:)

I was a paratrooper in the US Army until I broke my hip by landing horribly from a jump. When it became apparent that I would never recover well enough to jump from another airplane again (how utterly heartbreaking), I was sent to a unit that didn't jump. The people there were nice, and I was enjoying it in general, making friends, having a good time.

Somewhere along the way, I met him. I couldn't pronounce his last name, but just had the most intense eyes ever, and seemed so kind, but at the same time, a little dangerous. I could see that he'd lived an interesting life, and had a story to tell. I'm intrigued by people like that.

Over the years of my enlistment, I got to know him, and he became one of my most trusted leaders, totally influential to me as a soldier and as a person. I knew by then that he wanted to be more than a leader to me, that he wanted us to be together, and I wanted that, too, but our Battalion Commander had a really strict fraternization policy, so we kept it professional until I got out of the Army.

When I got out, the Iraq war began, and he was part of the invading force. His camp was somewhat near Nasiriya, but far from the places where troops had phones and internet. We forged our relationship through letters that took six weeks each way.

When he came home, we sent out wedding invitations throughout our families, and of course our battalion. This caused HUGE controversy, and there was speculation by higher-ups as to when our relationship began and how. Only a few people supported us, and they all had their leave forms denied, so they were unable to attend our wedding. Three weeks prior to our wedding, the orders came for a new post. The report date was shortly after our wedding. It was a blessing from the Department of the Army (and not a coincidence in the least, we later found out), and after we were married in a small ceremony on a riverbank in my hometown, we began our new lives together at our new post.

That was nearly six years ago. He still keeps a picture of me from about the timeframe we first met on his desk at work. I give him hell about it because how dirty is it for a man in his mid-30's to have a picture of a soldier in her late teens on his desk, but in reality, I think it's the sweetest thing ever that he still keeps that picture because it reminds him of when and how we met. ♥

I met my hubby at the bar! He was a friend of my friends sister. I didn't speak to him the whole night lol. But about a month later, (at a different bar :P) we actually started to talk and decided to *ahem* hook up. He was joining the army and I just didn't do relationships. Low and behold 3 months later I was pregnant. A few months after that we got engaged. We are now married and just had our second baby 3 months ago.

I had a real bad relationship with my daughter's dad. (emotional,physical and verbal abuse) I was crushed and began thinking very little of myself, even started thinking that maybe that is the life I had to live. It became way to much to handle and all I wanted was just to experience some happiness as he was my first serious but terrible relationship. One Sunday, almost 3 yrs ago I was at work with my daughter (mc'kayla) and her dad had called and managed to upset me so much and said the most hurtful things imaginable. I recall ending the call and out of anger calling out loud "GOD, CAN YOU SEND ME THE OPOSITE OF THIS MAN, 1 THAT WILL LOVE AND RESPECT ME, 1 THAT WILL ACCEPT ME WITH MY DAUGHTER AND LOVE HER UNCONDITIONALLY OR DO NOT WANT ME TO BE HAPPY" Now I worked in retail as a office manager and did not deal with customers unless there was a problem, my daughter at this time was playing on the floor in my office while I was working. A few minutes later a sales consultant walked in and asked if I could assist him with a customer as all admin staff were busy, I said fine. There after his customer walks in and I asked him to take a seat, I had butterfly feelings all over and there was just something about this man that took my breath away. My daughter then went and sat right next to him and carried on colouring. She began talking to him and he was so friendly with her. I carried on correcting the stock on his purchase and for some reason I cancelled it and re captured everything from the begining just to buy more time and keep him in my office a while longer. When I was done I remember just sinking into my chair and watched him walk away. He was on my mind for the remainder of that day as I was not sure whether i'd see him again. I went into work the next day and 07:45 I walked into the office and on my desk there were 3 profiles (customer info) all belonging to him, I threw it away and my day continued. At about 12:00 I left for lunch and when I returned I found 2 more profiles on my desk, I to this day have no idea how and why they ended up in my office, anyway I then decided to call him as he had recieved some of the stock he had purchased from us and thought there might be a problem, so I called and asked him "is everything okay regarding the stock you've recieved this far, I have had profiles for you all day and would not recieve any unless there is a query or problem. 1st thing he says to me is am I speaking to mc'kayla's mom and I said yes it is. He then asked me what is a profile and I explained it to him, then he turned around and said maybe its faith. A conversation hit it right off, he even called me back the same evening and we spoke for almost 3 hours. We spoke more and got to know each other better, he hit it off with my daughter too. Long story short, it was faith, I asked God for him and he gave it to me, I love this man so much. My daughter calls him daddy and they have real father daughter relationship. Our son Matthew is nearly 7 months old and we're 1 big happy family. I love him, I love him, I love him.My man has the world's respect for me and has showed me true happiness. I thank God for this.....

We met when we 11 and 12. His mom and step dad joined our church .I actually had a crush on his older brother at first. Our families got really close and a couple of years later we started dating. After about 2 years we broke up. We became"best friends throughout the rest of middle school and throughout high school. We both dated other people but never liked the others boyfriend or girlfriend. He always told me and my friends he wanted to marry and have kids with me but I thought it was just talk. Prom night he walked in with his girfriend and I ran in the bathroom and started crying thats when I knew we belonged together. A year later after no communication between us he moved back to Va from New Jersey to attend his grand mas funeral. Naturally I went with him and the dayafter July 27 2004 he confessed his love for me. He proposed in July 2004 we married December 2oo5 our daughter Dallas was born September 2005.

I bet my husband my freshman year of high school in GYM class. I had just turned 14 and he was 16. He just turned around and said hi and said I was "cute" lol so I didnt give him the time of day because he seemed like every other guy in high school, he showed me that he was more than that and that he was truly a nice guy do when he asked me out I said yes. we went out for 1 month and after that we didnt talk for a year, we were on and off throughout high school and we realized we kept coming back to each other because we were in love. I guess we were both too young to want to believe it. He was my 1st boyfriend, 1st kiss, and everything else so he has always been really special to me. As soon as I turned 19 and him 21 we got married. Now we've been married for almost 3 years and have a wonderful one year old named Gabriel.

I met my fiance at work. I was working at a mine as a dipper and he was a shot firer. (I measured and marked out drill hole patterns then passed the data to him so he knew what/howmuch explosives to use).
I had just moved across the country with my long term boyfriend and it wasn't working. He put me in debt and I couldn't afford to go home. So, I heard from my fiance that his fiance at the time had done the dirty, leaving him with a house he couldn't afford and he was looking for room mates to pay the mortgage. I got his number from some of the boys we worked with and I rang him to ask about the room. Things with my boyfriend hit rock bottom and I rang my fiance to ask if the room was available sooner. I moved in at the end of November 06. We went out for drinks to celebrate and have never been apart since. We lost our first baby to miscarriage in August of '07 at 3 months and then fell pregnant again straight away. Our son was born in June '08 and our daughter in September '09. He proposed not long after our daughter was born. I have never seen a man so inlove with his children and never been happier.

I met my husband Justin 8 years ago, it was both our first day at a new restaurant that opened I was working3 the day shift and him the night. I saw him walk in at switch over and from the second I saw him I was head over heels I told my gf's at work that one day I would marry that guy. I ended up doing a double b/c the nighttime bartender called in sick and after work we had a few drinks and once I had the liquid courage I told him how I thought he was the most beautiful guy's I have ever met, the feeling was mutual and we were inseperable , we moved in together 2 months later and 2 months after that he popped the question.

My husband and I grew up in the same church. He is 6 years older than me, so we didn't really know each other. The summer I turned 18, I was working with the church youth group in a leadership role, and he was also working with youth leading worship. We started working together on music for youth worship (I play piano, he plays guitar), and then I asked him to teach me guitar and we started hanging out regularly, and really enjoyed talking and spending time together. During "guitar lessons," the guitars spent more and more time just sitting on our laps while we talked. The night he admitted he liked me and wanted to date me, it took about 9 laps around the duck pond for him to work up the courage to say it. We dated for about 1-1/2 years, then became engaged, then married a year later. We got pregnant right after our first anniversay, and we have a beautiful son William who is 15 months now, and we just found out that we are expecting another baby. We know that God meant us to be together in the way He brought our lives together: we were all of each other's "firsts": first serious relationship, first kiss, etc.

Aww!! I love reading love stories!!! :)

So I met the father of my daughter a year and a half ago. One day I ment to call this guy named Dustin that me and my friend knew and were hanging out with during the summer. Turns out my friend, Sarah, gave me the wrong Dustin's number! It was so embarrassing. I kept asking what was going on that night and that me and sarah were bored. I kept saying my name and he was getting so confused. Finally Sarah got on the phone and got everything straightened out. Later that day he had texted Sarah and told her he was having people over. So me and her decided to go. Once we got there, me and him hit it off! We exchanged numbers before we left and not even 5 min after we had gotten into my car, he had text me! We were up all night talking about everything. The rest of the week we saw eachother almost everyday. Then one day we went mini golfing and at one course he told me to sit down. He then asked me to be his girlfriend! We had both been in a serious relationship before and thought we could never love again. But not even two months into the relationship we fell for each other! Once I found out I was pregnant I was so happy!! It took a little while for it to kick in for him but he could not be happier!! He is in heaven with her! Once he comes home from work he takes her away from me and is talking to her and playing with her. Now I am living with him and our beautiful daughter and I could not be happier!

I was 15 years old when I met my husband Josh. It was in August of 2003 at my school's first football game of the season. Josh went to another high school but had come to the game with his cousin (who went to my school) My best friend was sneaking a cigarette behind the field house and so was Josh's cousin. We just saw each other and I knew right then that he was the one. We talked all night but he didn't ask for my number or anything so I didn't know if he was interested or not. I thought about him all weekend long and then on Monday when I went to school his cousin came and told me that Josh wanted my phone number!!! I was ecstatic! That evening I went home and he called me and there hasn't been a day since that we haven't spoken. We were married June 4th 2005 and had our beautiful Allen 9-9-09. I have truly been blessed with an amazing husband and son:)

This is a great thread I love hearing other's romantic stories.
I met my Hubby through mutural friends when I was 19yrs old in a bar. It was Sean's 21st Birthday and HE bought ME a drink. lol. I fell fo him straight away. We went out for about a year before he broke my heart.
I met someone else got engaged and Sean had a baby and got engaged. Then one night he came into the night club I worked in and I offered to drive him home. When we got to his apartment he told me he never stopped loving me and suggested running away to Vegas. We didn't run away to Vegas but we started to see alot more of each other. I broke up with my fiance and everything changed. I realised I hadn't been happy for 5yrs. 16 mths later we bought a house together +got engaged. That was two and a half years ago and I have never been so happy.

My husband and I both worked for different ambulance companies in the same city. We were both complaining about "stupid" patients that we had and what an abuse of the system they were while cleaning our ambulances at the hospital. I would have totally not thought twice about him, but another guy that I work with was a good friend with him (both are named Jason) When we got back to the station my co-worker said like a little kid "Someone likes you"...there was another guy that we worked with that had a crush on me, but was NASTY! At that time I also worked at a drag strip doing EMS stand-by, and my future husband got a job at the same drag strip just to be able to talk to me again. After about 2 mos of working together we started to "date". 6 mos after we started dating, we got engaged...11mos after that we got married.

The father of my son Jazz, so happened to be my childhood crush.

I first met Lachlan when I was about 10 years old, he lived down the road from me.

He was the first boy i had ever kissed ( I think i was 12 then)and then one day he just stopped coming around. I found out that his family had moved.

I didnt think of him for years untill i joined facebook few years ago. I was going through one of my friends list to find people i knew to added and there he was, I was so excited.

we met up a week or two later and haven't been apart since.

we now have a 7 week old baby boy named Jazz and we couldnt be happier
