I also think you are meant to be! What are the odds?

My FI and I met on good ol’ AOL. Yup, in a chat room. Not a lot of people know. When we’ve been asked, we usually lie and say through a mutual friend. We both know that once we tell everyone where we met there will be lots of criticism, specially from his family. I love it tho, it gave me a chance to know him before we even met, lol.

We also met in a bar! The first year we dated he told everyone that we met through mutual friends(which we did at a bar). The rest as they say is history:)

One word. Craigslist.

I was moving out of a townhouse and my land lady told me she was putting it up for rent on craigslist. I didn’t know what that was so I looked. Then out of curosity I looked at the personals. Laughing at some of the silly posts of men looking for women.

To this day I wish I still had the ad he posted so I could see what it was that made me respond. We corresponded over email for several months before we ever talked via IM. Then quite some time via IM before we ever talked on the phone.And a bit longer before we met.

Who would have known!

We met in a bar too. We kind of blush about it the way you do. We do have a mutual friend, though. I called her after work one evening and we made plans for drinks and appetizers. When I got there, she said she was meeting a friend later at another bar. So we went, we met, we talked. And talked. And talked. And the bar closed, and the three of us went to her house. Where we talked until the sun came up. The timing was amazing because it was a small miracle that neither of us had to be at work in the morning (we’re all in medical fields) and I was slated to move three weeks later. I was definitely not looking. We spent the next three weeks talking all the time, with little sleep. I moved, we got engaged, and I moved back.

I like that you and Mr. Cheese were both on a mission, even if neither of you really thought it would happen that way. I think you were meant to be together too.

We too met at a bar! It was raining pretty badly out so my friend and I decided to change our original plans of meeting up with some friends and headed down the street to our favorite Irish pub. We ate dinner and then moved over to sit near the bar, where my now fiance was meeting up with his roommate after work. Somehow we ended up talking and laughing for hours. At one point, his roommate came over to join in our conversation and quickly left saying “I’m going to leave you and your future wife alone to talk.” (Talk about some serious foreshadowing!) We went on our first date later that week and have been together ever since. Now 3.5 years, 2 dogs and 1 out of state move later, we are planning our upcoming wedding!

I met my beau at a nightclub/bar , any a bad one at that!! LOL I had just been telling my girlfriends that you don’t go you Club ****** to meet a decent guy! We had a lot of common links but never met before that night.

Oh yes, Cheese, we met At. A. Bar. too. And not even a super nice classy bar, or a brewery, but a natty bar in Orange County-one in which you wait in line for but once you get inside you wonder what you were waiting for? Yup, love in a bar totally works out! Oh and in order to get my attention, my fiance hip checked me…yes, almost as bad as pulling my hair on the playground!

haha yup CRAIGSLIST! he’s not shy to say it… but i get a bit weird out to say it…i like to say “from a friend”… unfortunately we don’t have any common friends since he moved here from a different state about 2 yrs ago so he knew no one..sooo “that friend” is ummm imaginary”.. hahaha
