How did you find your true love?

I know that there are some happily coupled people here who have found their true partners. If you are willing, describe the situation in which you met them. How did you meet them? Where did you meet them? Describe how you met.

Friend of a friend. Met her in a Starbucks when we were supposed to do a video for the same friend who'd moved to Australia. It basically went on from there.

Met my man on an internet "dating" site. We chatted on-line and phone for quite a bit then he invited himself up for dinner one night. What a pompous ass. I hated him from the moment he walked in the door. I vowed never to see him or speak to him again. Lucky for me he is a persistant bugger.

Turned out he was my knight on a shiney dark blue Suzuki. He called me, wouldn't take no for answer and hauled by arse down the stairs and plopped me on the back of his bike. Took me to get ice cream then we chatted in the park. Anybody who thinks I am beautiful when I was running a temp. of 103, just got off work from working a lunch shift in the kitchen and looked and smelled like a sewer rat can't be all bad.

Almost five years later we are still together. He still acts like a pompous ass sometimes but he is really a mush.

Well...I haven't really find my true love but I have my eyes on a good family friend. He's very sweet, has helped me through some tough times (self-injury, stress, minor anxiety attacks, undiagnosed depression) and I can have a decent argument with him. He says things that make sense and will state his opinion, which is for me a very determining point. Plus, he's good looking. ;D
We communicate either by phone or e-mail on a twice-a-week basis and we have lots of fun with that. use your imagination...

I haven't found that predestined "true" love.

A partner for me is purely an option and choice right now. It's not a necessity.

badteccy · 05-14-2007, 01:02 PM

Well, I originally met Haunted House at the mall. I thought he was scary looking...then we became friends and...god, this story is so complicated and I am lazy.

maggot · 05-14-2007, 01:20 PM

Jenny googled "GAWTH", and thought I looked cute.

Subphonic · 05-14-2007, 01:27 PM

Student bar, 'trebles for singles' on spirits many treble whiskys later heading out of the bar to go clubbing and a hand appears holding a glass, a voice says 'down that' so I do. A treble Gin, turns out some someone who liked her had bought her it but she didn't like gin, chose me because of my flowing golden locks etc etc, chatted, don't remember our first kiss but it's been seven and a half years now...scary!

Underwater Ophelia · 05-14-2007, 05:14 PM

I met him at a club and it was love at first sight.
He just knew me.

badteccy · 05-14-2007, 06:51 PM

I can vouch for that, Ophelia and IsolatedReptile were in love from the moment they layed eyes on one another...it's darling.

I feel like I need dimples. Just for this moment. I'm cheery thinking of him.

badteccy · 05-14-2007, 07:09 PM

Argh! So Cute!

MollyMac · 05-14-2007, 07:18 PM

The boy and I met at college a decade ago. Both were majoring in useless but interesting areas and both worked in residence life. He was the surly hall director, I was the up-and-coming Resident Advisor and RHA Vice President. We met at the haunted house that my RHA set up in his dorm.

He was not pleased with my co-horts, but getting a backrub from the cute redhead in the too-tight bloody nurse's outfit helped. He asked me out over Thanksgiving... after I helped him move lumber from the rack and clean the last of the red Karo syrup from his hall.

Saddiction · 05-14-2007, 07:18 PM

I didn't find him, he found me.

He came up and talked to me in the club. That was a year ago.

I wondered why I was single for so long, lots of guys have told me that I'm intimidating.. I don't know why *shrug*

DarkGentleman · 05-14-2007, 07:54 PM

I thought I found true love many times. Nope.

I'm still looking or hoping she will find me.

WHICH ONES? What year?

Um... ne'er mind.

Hate to sound like a ho-ho here....
but there were actually 3 of them.
At present, I am not with either of them.
They pissed me off.

Hence....

In the year of 1995, I pissed off all 3 of them...
by eloping with someone from out of state that no one in the neighborhood or vicinity knew NOR knew about.

Yep. I did.

In the end.....

It's all good. I wrote something about it here once.
It is an old post.... in the section called WHINING I believe.

Yep. Twisted shit.

BUT....

That Georgia boy I eloped with turned out to be a pretty good man.
He NAGS.....
but he's a pretty good man otherwise.

I can't complain.

killer_asian_Dax · 05-14-2007, 09:54 PM

I don't believe in "true love(s)." I [i]do[/] however, believe that there is a person out there I won't get bored of. The ultimate friend with benefits. (Because I don't believe in committed bf/gf husband/wife type relationships.)

DeathChii · 05-14-2007, 09:55 PM

At school... I thought he looked pretty cool so I introduced myself... we started dating a week later and still are =]
But I am still young, I cannot say wether or not it is true love

prophecyofdoom · 05-14-2007, 10:54 PM

I do not have a true love, but I do have a "baby daddy". It was Halloween. Some friends and I had gone to Six Flag's Frightfest. (I had eaten deep fried oreo's for the first time. Heaven.) Some of us wanted to go to a diner, and some of us wanted to go to a metal show at this bar. We bickered back and forth, finally we decided to go to the diner. We sat at this diner until almost two a.m, then everyone began to make their final exits. "Hmmm." I said. "I wonder if that show's still going on." "We could go check it out." One of my friends said. We dithered for a bit on if it would be worth it. Then we decided to go. When we got there, the band was still playing. I saw this amazingly gorgeous guy standing alone in the corner. Fast-forward three years, and now we have two children together. Two people exist, who wouldn't be here if I had made a different decision that Halloween night. You never know which decisions will change the entire course of your life.

Because you ARE intimidating.

You are so wickedly beautiful that your penetrating eyes pierce the heart of men and leave only the strong to approach you. It's your amazing eyes.

Dancing_in_rain · 05-15-2007, 01:41 PM

Humane, it sounds like you have a bit of a crush on Saddiction...
*chuckles and ducks as HumaneP takes a swing at her*

How did you meet your wife HP? Care to share? (hehehe...that rhymes!)

DarkWinter · 05-15-2007, 01:49 PM

We met at a concert we were both performing in. I was actually hitting on her friend. The next day I could not get her out of my mind, I tracked her down that week end and we had that fortuitous first date. For years we had a love/hate relationship. It was only later that I realized that she was the standard that I measured other girls against. Fast forward a few more years...now we are solid.

killer_asian_Dax · 05-15-2007, 02:21 PM

As you all know, I don't believe in that love stuff. Just not for me, but I HAVE to give points and recognition to DarkWinter for using a completely awesome word that too often is forgotten about. And that's the word "SOLID."

Kudos to you man!

*politely gives the thread back* Here you go!
