After seeing other couples in the guild i honestly wonder how they met ^o^
I met my boyfriend on Gaia 2 years ago on my first account, and after a year of talking and just being great friends we started developing feelings and did the 'online' relationship deal. Then after 5 months of that, i visited him in England and wow, it was great :]
I went back 2 months later for 3 months and i decided i love him to bits and he I. So we're getting married in December to make him immigrating easier, but i really think it will last, after all, we waited so long and so far to have it <3
I know some of you may find that odd but oh well, love happens in strange places x3
* Where did you meet your partner?
* How long have you both been together?

My Wife and I met back in early of 2002 I was new to town having moved up here with my then person i went to the bar with a friend .. whom introduced me to a lot of people .. mostly lesbians with a few gay men thrown in for good measure.. and this was a straight bar I later found out my mom knows the owner but that is a different story
When i met her i knew i wanted to be with her .. but it was 5 months of talking all the time going to the bars .. making out while we were at the bars and what not calling each other and everything
We couldn't be together then though because each of us had someone .. but i was ready to leave the person i was with anyway .. until the day someone said somethings to me that i later found out were not true .. but anyway they told me she was calling me things so we stopped talking from mid 2002 - Sept 2005
it was then that someone sent me to work at a different store .. which happened to be where she hung out and that was the end of it.. we started talking and hanging out again .. and the first things we said to each other was that " NO MATTER WHAT WE ARE NOT GOING TO LISTEN TO OTHER PEOPLES $#!7" and since then we haven't .. we moved in together in October 2005 with her mom and we just back this past February got out own apartment

My husband and I met when we both went back to school for Insurance Billing and Coding. We were just friends at first because he was married. I had been a single mom for six years at that point with my three kids. He has 4 kids of his own. Two of his at the time were grown and two still lived at home. All of mine still lived at home as the oldest then was only 16. Anyway, as time went on, we began to flirt and I didn't really think much of it because I wasn't getting involved with a married man. Then the time came when I thought after graduating that my kids and I would move to another town about 200 miles south of where we live now. When I told him that, he confessed how he felt about me (which I felt the same way, but he was married) and then told me that he and his wife had already planned on getting a divorce when he finished school. He hadn't told me, because he didn't want it to seem like a line, but he didn't want me to move without telling me his feelings. So, long story short, I didn't move, he got divorced very quickly and three weeks after his divorce we got married. That was over 6 years ago and I have never been happier in my life. He is the great love of my life along with my kids and granddaughter. My kids and I have no contact with there biological father, my ex-husband and that is fine with all of us. He was such a mean and dangerous man. Totally different than my precious Chester. Chester loves all of us so unconditionally that it amazes me sometimes. We are all trully blessed. biggrin

I dated a guy like that in high school, and it worries me because one day some girl is going to marry him and hes going to beat the crap out of her =/ But at least you found the TRUE person made for you, everyone deserves unconditional love heart

Ok, here we go, I really love telling this...
I was 14 at the time and my BFF said you have got to meet my cute cousin! She takes me to the grocery store where he worked at, she says this is Pete, we say hi, and that was it. Later I tell her he was "ok". 3 years later I was attending a pasture party I should not have been at redface It was the "Beer Drinkers Reunion" (I was 17, lol drinking age was still 18 at the time, but ...), I got together with this guy, and he introduces me to his friend Pete, we say hi. and that was that. 4 months later I was working at a gas station, and these house painters come in, the BIG one was flirting with me, but the little one just stared (he sure looked familiar). 1 year later my friend decided to go to this club (Urban Cowboy type) we went to. We sit at really big table, well.... across from me sits this little guy, with the prettiest (bloodshot) blue eyes I have ever seen, and I tell him so. He says "I have been looking for you" I am sure you have guessed who this is by now, lol. He followed me home that night, and 6 weeks later we were married. That was nearly 28 years ago.....
I believe in FATE, do you....

A very long story lies ahead for you...
Well I used to go to a lot of local gigs to do band photography coz I'm good friends with the guy who promotes bands and books venues and puts on gigs and he used to get me to take photos for him of the bands so he could put them up on the website he had to promote the gigs, I also used to take photos of the crowd to show how much people had fun etc... Anyway, I was getting a drink at the bar one night and it was crowded, its a good job I'm only small, I could squeeze through the people just standing there and not actually getting a drink (my pet peeve is people who stand at crowded bars when they're not ordering drinks lol) either way I got my drink but I had my camera in one hand and the drink in the other so both my hands were full and as I stepped backwards I walked straight into someone, I turned around to apologise and looked into the eyes of a really tall ginger bloke - fairly good looking, with beer goggles - drop dead gorgeous! I apologised and he laughed and said that it was ok and then we carried on with our evening but I kept looking out for him coz he was really good looking lol I even took a few sneaky photos! My ex was there coz he was filming the bands for some PR thing that our friend the promoter was doing and the more he had to drink the more of an a** he turned into for me dumping him a few weeks before. Anyhoo, the gig finished and we all went onto a local club to celebrate the evening going well and actually making some money to pay the bands, a first for us! My ex and I decided to call a truce and just enjoy ourselves as I was crashing on the spare bed at my friend the promoters house that night and my ex was his house-mate. So we were at this club, I was drinking even more as loads of guys were hitting on me and I'm never one to turn down a free drink lol eventually I get bored of flirting with people I have absolutely no interest in and I go sit down on one of the couches with my ex to talk to one of the bands that had come along to the club with us, they were from Malta and were really cool guys, anyway, this girl with massive hair came and sat down with us and started talking to my ex, apparently they knew each other, she seemed nice enough but there was something I didn't trust about her (to this day I still don't but I dont know why) she said she was waiting for her friend who had been in the toilets for about 20 minutes, so we're chatting away and the ginger dude from the gig earlier comes over and sits down and he's the friend that the girl with massive hair had been waiting for, so I automatically start teasing him for being ginger, he takes it well and I soon leave him alone, if you can make fun of yourself then you're ok in my book lol later on everyone says they're going and I get invited to my friend Gemmas house for a bit more of a party so I agree but my ex goes mental and wont lend me his keys to get into his house to get my stuff, so I punched him in the head and stole his keys and storm off with the band to Gemmas house and party with the band for a few hours until I decide that my ex is probably asleep or in a coma so its safe for me to go back there and get my stuff and/sleep in the spare bed, on the way back to my mates house I see a huge sign hanging from some scaffolding that I absolutely HAD to have. There was no way I could live without it... It said: "Caution! Erection in progress!" and having an incredibly dirty mind I found it hilarious and ended up climbing the scaffold and cutting it down just as a police car drive past me so I quickly shoved it in my coat and pretended to be trying to find my keys lol along the way I stole some more signs, like "No Entry!" and "This Way!" (I turn into a lil thief when I'm drunk and unsupervised!) but I finally got to my friends house and let myself in with my ex's keys, I opened the door and saw the ginger guy sitting in the living room, along with the girl with massive hair and my mates girlfriend, my mate made a brief appearance to say hello and let me know that the spare bed was all made up for me and then went off to bed. I closed the front door behind me and stood there for a minute saying hello to everyone, still fairly in shock that the ginger dude was in my friends house! Then I opened my coat and about 5 or 6 road signs fell out onto the floor. We all laughed hysterically as I told the take of my scaffold climbing adventure and how I had also found a hedgehog on the way back too but it wouldt co-operate and come back with me sad anyway, despite the amount I had to drink earlier that evening I was begining to sober up and shyness was begining to take over so I couldnt really talk to the ginger guy, but he did tell me that he had noticed me at our local heavy metal night club two towns over and that he hoped to see me again there, I thought nothing more of it, I'm not difficult to miss when I'm all dolled up for an evening out! And then he and his massive haired friend got a taxi and disappeared from my life. I went to bed. I began searching for the ginger dude on myspace and facebook but I couldnt remember his name so I couldn't find him, just as I gave up trying to find him it was another friends birthday so I went on her myspace profile to leave the first birthday comment (I like doing it before everyone else does!) and someone had already beaten me to it, it was the ginger dude! I had found him! So I sent him a message and a friend request and asked if he remembered me, he replied later that day saying of course he did and we started chatting sending about 15/16 messages a day, I even started getting up even earlier before work just to see if he had messaged me as he worked nights and I worked days, I was rushing home or to my mates house after work to check my messages and getting up at like 5am (I started work at 9 lol) just to see if he was online, a week after we started chatting it was halloween night at the local metal club (the friday night was 26th oct so they celebrated it then) and I begged him to come out but he had to work, once again I was gonna crash at my friends house in the spare bed (my dads disabled and my mum never liked me coming home in the early hours so I had to crash where I could) I went off to the club dressed as a zombie nurse and my ex was Van Helsing (we were really good friends when he was sober, but when he had a few drinks he became a bit of an a** about me dumping him) it was cheaper to get a taxi together so we often went together in a group. I had a great night and then towards the end of the evening my ex disappeared, leaving me and two friends stranded as he had my mate Jons wallet (jon had a hole in his pocket and it kept falling out) and he had his keys to get into his house so even if I could get back to the house I couldn't get in without him or his keys. I managed to get hold of him using someone elses phone to ring him, he wouldnt pick up when I used mine, and he came back to the club to give Jon back his wallet and yell at me, I pushed him til he gave me his keys and we jumped into a taxi leaving my dumb ex stranded at the club two towns away. I got back to my mates house and get changed into my usual jeans and t-shirt (the pvc nurses outfit was quite stuffy!) and removed the zombie make-up and went on my ex's computer to check my myspace messages, the ginger dude (Sean) was online and I started telling him about my evening and how it had pretty much sucked, when all of a sudden my ex phoned me, really angry and really drunkand said he wason his way back and I had better be out of the house before he got back. Now I love fights and arguments and I get a real kick out of rubbing people the wrong way so I stayed there lol all my things were packed, all I had to do was grab my bag but I had nowhere else to go and it was 5:00 in the morning. Sean said he could pick me up but I didn't know him so I was a bit wary of that, so I said no thankyou and located a bottle of vodka and waited for my ex to get back, he got back and was fuming, really angry and I'd never seen him like that before, he really looked like he'd hit me, I still had no idea why he was angry, I think it was the alcohol and the fact that I had dumped HIM and not the other way round, even though we had broken up about 6 weeks before. Either way I thought he was gonna hit me so when he went into the bathroom mid argument, I messaged Sean quickly on myspaceand said "Yes, please pick me up!" he said ok and I grabbed my bag and went outside and waited on the corner, presently Sean pulled up and I jumped into his car, still very drunk and still a bit wary of him as I didn't know him. He took me back to his house, he was staying in his mums conservatory while he found another place of his own as the last place he had lived in had gone wrong when his flatmate hadn't been paying rent so they both got kicked out. He put on a film and we started chatting and he was the perfect gentleman, he even let me sleep in his bed, I was under the covers and he was on top of them, and the bed was so huge you could have fitted 3 people between us! We had arranged before he rescued me to go out for a drink on the sunday so after he dropped me home the next day (saturday) we agreed that he would pick me up again on the sunday and we would still go for a drink, he delivered on that promise and picked me up at 7pm on the sunday, meeting my mum quickly as she opened the door to him before I had a chance to get there lol we went to a quiet pub and played some pool and had a quiet drink (no alcohol for me, I had my driving test the next day!) it was a really nice evening and we got on really well, the next day we spoke online and by text on our phones and then I had my practical driving test, which I passed (3rd time lucky) so he took me out for a drink to celebrate smile he met my parents properly that day too, the next day he asked if he could see me again so I said yes and he picked me up from work and we went back to his to watch a film and while were watching a film he kissed me, he's a really shy guy so I know that took guts so I asked him if he wanted me to be his girlfriend lol he said yes so I said "so are you gonna ask me then??" (nothing like putting people on the spot!) so he did! This was only last year, its now 11 months later and we're engaged, living together and have a little baby together! I know its all been so quick but when you know you love someone you know, I honestly believe he's the one and I never believed in such things before. When we found out that I was pregnant his first instinct was to celebrate, neither of us even thought of anything but keeping the baby and although we were scared neither of us even thought of breaking up, I gave him the option of getting out and it upset him that I had thought that I had to give that offer, he tells me 20 times a day that he loves me and I trust him 100% which is more than I even trust my parents LOL
