How Did You Meet Your Significant Other?
Somewhat prompted by my friend forcing me to have a drink with him (which I didn't  ) to celebrate the fact that he got a date with a hot blonde, the subject came to me while I was taking a shower.
So post.

I worked with her older sister. She came in to work to visit her sister, saw me and liked me. I (eventually) asked her out.

We became best friends in middle school, then one day in November we were watching a movie and she laid down next to me and told me to put my arm around her.

She pinched my arse in a nightclub. A wise move, seeing as I'm generally oblivious to all but the most blatant of flirting.

We almost drawned at the sea after becoming too absorbed in our talking and eachother and without realizing it we drifted far far away from the coast in the middle of a watery nowhere. It was an unforgettable challenge to make it back safe on shore while wondering how did that happen!

She worked at a little clothing store in Thailand. I kept returnig to buy more clothes and I would practice the Thai language on her. She was very excited that I could write her name in Thai and that I could speak a few words in her language. I asked her if she wanted to learn English and we started having private lessons. After a while we became friends and the rest is history...

She stuck her tongue in my ear in revenge for me slapping her arse in the college pub.
We've been the most dysfunctional couple in college for around 1 1/2years now

I was in a computer lab visiting a friend. She was going berserk attacking a PC. I wandered over to give her a hand, and she was having problems with a Fortran program, a programming language most scientists use but computer types don't know.

original meeting was in 1995 when we both stood at the wedding of my best friend and her best friend. We had to walk together in the church and we hung out with the bride and groom on the night before the wedding. We got along great but nothing happened as we were seeing other people at the time
fast forward to 1998 and I was planning to visit the same married couple on a Saturday ( they lived an hour away) but they asked that I drop by on Friday night. When I got there they mentioned that she was coming by as she had just arrived back home from Texas .. . a set up . . .. well we hit it off again and I gave her my number, never thinking she would call.
She called . . .and we talked for hours on the phone over the next 4 nights ( she was 4 hours drive away) until she came into my town for a date . . . yadda yadda yadda, she is now Mrs Flubber and expecting our first child ( due date was actually yesterday so the anticipation is driving me crazy)

She's living in the same student's home as my best friends here in Stuttgart, and she belongs to a friend's circle doing exactly the same courses as me and my friends. Gosh, pretty easy, huh ?

Well I explained already... I met him while out in a cafe, and we started to talk some... and then you can see where it went from there. My parents did not knew I was dating an argentine guy at first but I told them, and then they met him.

She lived in the apartment building next door. Her 5 year old and my 5 yearold played together all the time. They got the idea it would be cool for me and her to get together and introduced us. It was an interesting way to meet
