It was a dark and stormy night…
Oh, wait, wrong story. Sorry!
Actually, and though I hate to admit it, J and I met in a bar. This bar, to be exact.
It was a birthday party for a high school friend of mine. I was 24, fresh off my stint in Boston for law school. He was 28, working long hours at an internet company that my friend had just started temping for.
We started dating a mere five years later.
Life is funny, isn’t it? There’s this person you knew all along, but first you were dating someone and then he was dating someone. And while you knew him, you didn’t really know him, if you know what I mean. And then he sends you an email out of the blue. And you’re curious.
So you end up meeting up for dinner and drinks on a Thursday night and talking until seven in the morning. And neither of you are what anyone would call the talkative type.
Oh, yes, work the next day was awful, but it didn’t matter. It took me several weeks of second guessing to admit it, but Mr. Dew Drop and I were already falling in love…
Did you know your significant other for a long time before actually getting together, too?
Mr. DD and I, a couple of months after we started dating
Awww, that’s so cute! I had known OF Mr. Bruschetta since he was in seventh grade and I was in eighth — but we didn’t get together until the end of my senior (his junior — remember, like Frenchie, I’m a Puma [rowr!]) year.
My NEW husband and I were dating for 4 months before he proposed. We ‘knew’ each other for long then that but… needless to say during our 3 year engagement I think we more then made up for the quick engagement… lol
What a cute story! 
My husband and I knew each other for almost 9 years before we started dating!
Aww…we met in highschool. Started dating 10 years later.
Aww, cute. Mr. Star and I were good friends for two years before we finally woke up and figured our stuff out!
so cute! we’ve been together since the night we met, pretty insane.
Yep… We met each other 5 years ago when I was an intern in the planning office. He’s an engineer, and his office is across the hallway. We had a cordial friendship, but never hung out outside of work. Then I went away for grad school, came back 2 years later and got a job in the planning office. We started dating 6 motnhs later, 3 years after we first met. We should be engaged this fall, 5 years after firs tmeeting and married 6 years after first meeting.
Its funny though, I’m glad we didn’t start dating when I was an intern. I needed the time by myself in grad school to live alone and figure myself out, and finish my master’s degree!
DH and I were acquaintances in high school, but our paths crossed again through mutual friends about three years ago. It was a group outing to see Superman Returns the day it came out, and I only went cause I was bored, not because I wanted to see the movie. DH said he made sure he sat next to me cause he thought I was cute (I say he is just making that up). I ended up talking his ear off during the movie cause I had no idea what was going on and he knew all the back story. Well, a great friendship was born that night and it took me two years to realize how amazing and cute he was…he says he knew we had something special that night. I’m glad he waited around for me to figure it out too!
my fiance and I have a funny story. he was my previous roomates boyfriend. and we new eachother for a few years and then met up at a halloween party, started dating a week later, and he proposed just about a month after that. (btw my roomate was totally okay with us dating)
another bar couple here =) but technically….we met through a friend, he just happened to finally meet up with us at a bar!
Aw, what a cute story! Props to Mr. D for sending that email!
that was a cute story. i had only known the boy for a few months before we started dating
Yay for meeting at bars!
