One of the things I love about this site is that there are so many different people from different backgrounds - a lot of whom are couples who seem to have very strong, happy relationships.
So, in the name of outright curiosity, I'd like to know:
Where, how and when did the couples who post to this site meet ?

OK ... I have a history of bad relationships and was in a emotionally draining one when I met Pete (MorbiusUK on here).
We met in a nightclub, my buddy was chatting up his buddy and we got "pushed" together, danced, smooched, admitted we were in relationships etc. Pete came to see me at work on Monday saying he couldn't get me out of his mind and it progressed from there! Used to meet for lunch, afternoons off driving up to N Derbyshire wandering round getting to know each other.
He left his wife v shortly afterwards - like 4 weeks (nothing to do with me but marriage generally over) and I left my partner a couple of months later ... again not for him necessarily (relationship was a bad one and on it's last legs for a long time) but he helped me choose life!
Got engaged in the same nightclub, on stage with mic, and one knee job all on a busy saturday night (brave man), got married 2 years after meeting and had a quick wedding .. ie his divorce arrives and we book ours asap. Instead of having disco had evening in same club (aren't we incurable romantics???)
We met at a club through mutual friends,both got extremely drunk and got it on,so to speak.
Couldnt remember much about each other the next day,possibly been drunk ever since.

Daz's girlfriend of 5 years (Teresa) was my boyfriends (John) next door neighbour.
Daz and i had met a few times, and i'd let slip to Teresa that i wanted shaving but wasnt sure how to go about it, she offered Daz's services. (I'd like to add at this point that she was sleeping around)
I was at hers when the phone rang one day, it was Daz, but she was cooking so i took the phone. Daz basically told me how much he wanted me and how he was desparate to be with me,and i needed to get credit so we could talk properly. i did, we talked and about 4 days later i told him we'd go for had our first kiss (aw, bless) and were together for about 2 weeks before i was 100% sure, so he dumped Teresa, i dumped John, and here we are, 15 months on!! Needless to say, Teresa found out and i was under threat for a while, lol!!!!!! But we dont regret a second of it.
We met in a chatroom, and boy were the fates with us THAT day.
I (Jeff) had never been in the room before and was about to leave. Jules almost didn't come in as her gibbon needed painting but luckily the undercoat hadn't dried yet.
The woman I had got a date with whilst my girfriend was off in france pretending she wasn't humping the guy she knew that I knew she was humping (I must buy him a drink sometime) cried off at the last minute (are you keeping up?).
I didn't have any petrol for the car and no money to get any, so I had to walk to work and snaffle the keys for the company car...
That had no petrol.
I found in loose change, a half eaten cream egg, Shergar's left nad, a 1968 copy of Health and Efficiency, and a shekel down the back of the couch; and so the day was saved (ever driven 180 miles on motorways at 45 miles an hour to save petrol? I learned some exciting new gestures from truckers)...
Now, over two years later, we are married and have a small dog that can eat its own weight in carpet per day... If you see the Fates, tell em I want a chat.
We first made contact in an internet chat room. Talked online and via the phone for a few months, I was reluctant to meet Paul as I am 16 years older than him. He adventually talked me into meeting him just to say hello and see if we got on as well in person as we did online. The meeting was very nerve racking but also very exciting. What I found the strangest was seeing him and chatting to him in person, I was used to his voice and recognised that but seeing the person the voice belonged to was very strange.
Anyway we are living together now and have been for the past 18 month so my concerns regarding our ages was very shortlived.
We both knew we had an interest in swinging because when you talk to each other as much as we did before actually meeting each other all our likes and dislikes, dreams and fantasys are discussed in full.

I met my now wife while we were both at school I was 15 she was 14 we are still together and have been maried for 32 years
Reese and me met on a bulletin board, like this. Well, not quite like this, as it was a community of people doing distributed computing for cancer research.
We were both married. He in the US, me in the UK. There was no option, we had a bond.
Now living happily together and unable to really remember not knowing eachother.
