I met mine on SW. 🤓
DunningKruger · 61-69, M
The wife (before she became the wife, of course) was visiting in the area to help a friend from college move. As it happened, the wife's friend was married to a friend of mine from college. The eventual wife, who had been divorced by around five years by then, wanted her friend to introduce her to any single guys she knew, and I was the only single guy she could think of. The eventual wife got my phone number and called me out of the blue, asking if we could go to dinner and she could pick my brain about the area, as she was considering moving here. So, we met up for dinner and such, and the wife's friend and my friend came along, mostly so the wife's friend could tell me humiliating stories about the wife in college. After dinner, we dumped them, drove around, found someplace to get a drink, had a conversation, then went back to the friends' house and talked for most of the night. We were married six months later.

I was a DJ at a new dance club and her and a male friend walked in and sat down by me. We talked that night and within 2 months were dating...6 years later married and been together a total of 32 years

Complete chance. I was at a low point, tired of "the life", and was desperate for something to change. I wanted something genuine, something real. So when a guy asked if I needed help reaching something on a shelf, I gave him my number and told him, "Hey, could you call me sometime? I don't want to be alone right now."

Much less romantic in hindsight, but hey, it all worked out.

He was visiting our offices at work.After official business was done he came over to my desk to strike up a conversation, otherwise known as hitting on me.He told me I had the best legs on the planet and asked me out on a date.We went out that night.Over twelve years later we live together and have three children.

I don’t have S.O. for almost 7 now… If it won’t come to me. I perhaps it was stuck at Amazon push cart. Customized, pre-order? 😂😑
@Sepia BC! No need of SW cup. Direct Amazon delivery for feelers!

She lived just down the street since we were 10.
Ironically, shortly after telling me that she needed to move quite a distance away (for family), the woman I was dating told me that after she left, I should ask her BFF for a date because that friend of hers had a major crush on me.

I did..... and we have been married for over 30 years......

Wife worked at a business next door to where I worked. Met her there (neither were single at the time). Few years later ran into her again at a small town festival. Decided to meet up the next day for a casual date....that's been over 30 years ago now....

At a public park........................................ I never should have gone to the park that day.
We've been together since High-school.

My boyfriend and I are both avid hikers, and we met the summer before this last when we both joined the same hiking group on the same day. He was barefoot👣, and I've always had a thing for barefoot boys👣😍 (even though, odd as it may seem, I've absolutely never gone barefoot myself, never wanted to, and never will 🙃) He was also shirtless, and had the most gorgeous tan I'd ever seen, so I knew as soon as I saw him that I had to have him.
I just walked up beside him, got up my nerve, and said: 'Wow, you're barefoot👣! That's so cool😀!'
We started talking and we've been together ever since.👣💕🥿🥿
Ducky · 31-35, F
She was a friend of my sister’s first, so we were introduced through her. We were only acquaintances for about two years before we started dating.
Straylight · 31-35, F
We met at a New Years party. We had a few friends in common, so I’d seen her a couple times but hadn’t really spent time until then.

I met him thru my bestfriend, then we spoke over the phone/facetime for like 6 months, then when I went to US with her, I went to see him alone after she left (everyone told me not too because of like stranger danger lol), spent two months with him, and rest is history😅
GanglandCriminal97 · 26-30, M
I met her on SW and we actually met in person and we're getting married soon, inshallah.

She lives 3,000 miles away from me. But she's my beautiful Lebanese princess
CassandraSissy · 26-30, T
In a bar, out with workmates...he was out with his....a wink, a quick chat, an offer to buy a drink...and, boom.....over 5 years later, house together and engaged...

A childhood bestie is one of the sisters of my ex. We bumped into each other when she relocated after decades to the same city.

The last SO i had i met him on Facebook. He sent me a message and then we talked on the phone for about a year. He asked me to go on vacation with him and his family. We went to Mississippi for a week. Then he moved in with me. We lived together about 18 months before we broke up.

DDonde · 31-35, M
Did you? How did that go?
DearAmbellina2113 · 41-45, F
@DDonde A while after we had started messaging each other here, he told me he was deleting and gave me his number in case I wanted to keep in touch after he deleted. We didn't even know what each other looked like but I liked talking to him so much, I couldn't bear to lose touch with him. So we started texting and it all went from there.
DDonde · 31-35, M
@DearAmbellina2113 happy for you

@SW-User he's not here anymore. A while after we had started messaging each other here, he told me he was deleting and gave me his number in case I wanted to keep in touch after he deleted. We didn't even know what each other looked like but I liked talking to him so much, I couldn't bear to lose touch with him. So we started texting and it all went from there.
