Met mine at a gun shop , she was in a back room cleaning the minnow tank , hi beams up and yeah , I noticed . Hit on her a couple of times but she was still steadfast to make a bad marriage work . lwft her a buisness card and told her to give me a ring a ding if she wanted to get together . About a year later got a txt saying Hi ! At this time I was not up to snuff on texting and quite frankly it pissed me off when people texted me . But this when I decided it was a good time to learn .

hanco, entertaining thread here. Thanks

Reminds me of a great movie "the taming of the Shrew".

Texas A&M, BSU noon Bible study, volleyball practice, Sunday school, thank you Jesus!

I was working a football game as a High School Principal and one of my students introduced me to her. It was her sister. She had a 5year old boy and we've been together for almost 20 years and son is finishing his PhD in bio medical technology. Sure will be glad to get him off the payroll. powdr

A guy ask me how I met mine yesterday. I’ve enjoyed reading these very much. I was at the country and western dance bar when a cute dark haired girl came up to me, she said her friend wanted to dance with me. I was thinking, ugly, fat, both, but I went with her and met wifey. I’m glad I went.

St.Mary,s church, in Anchorage , back in 2002, at a non church function, ( long story) back when I bad long hair and a lot bigger. Took her to Jackass, the movie...yeah...I know..
Took five years to get a second date, we,ve been together ever since!
10 years together this year, we had an outdoor wedding in 2016. Our honeymoon, did the traverse from Deer Mountain to Sylvas, in Ketchikan! 13 miles, 4 smallish mountains, both our packs waaaaay overloaded , and our mud buggin dog!
Pretty sure I married way out of my league, but like I tell my little brother on occasion, better lucky than good!

That is the best sister tit story ever....

I met my wife at work in a hubcap factory in 1984. She was working a summer job during her college years. I had been there 6 years and didn't know any better. We were complete opposites. She was quiet & studious, I was a party animal. In the first 3 months we dated I took her to my friends' annual "Heathen Fest" and a mafia wedding (that's a whole 'nuther story). I think she hung around just out of morbid curiosity. That was 34 years ago, we've been married for 31. I can't imagine where I would be today without her. Surely not in such a good place.

I've known her since elementary school when I switched schools and we ended up riding the same bus (I was in the 5th grade and she was in the 6th grade). We also went to a summer camp together through the school (Clearcreek near Schofield, Utah, for any of you who might be familiar with it). Fast forward a few years to high school and we both worked at Fred Meyer, which is where we struck up a close friendship and started dating. Got married when I was 18 and she was 19, and we just had a our 30 year anniversary this past March.

We have four daughters and this is our clan:

History class in high school

First wife i met in a bar,was married 15 years,she developed , (or always had) mental illness and an eating disorder.i finally had enough,i told her she had 30 days to get professional help or i m gone.she thought i was bluffing,i wasn t.went through a bloodbath divorce.
a year later a friend of mine told me he ran into a girl that said she used to date me in 1987,he gave me her business casrd,i called her up and asked her to lunch,a year later we were married,have one child together,been together 10 years now.i wish i would have married her first.

Met my wife in HS in 1959, got married in 1961 and still in love and married.

Once the Anti-Christ got done with me I signed up for a co-dependence class at church to make sure it never happened again and that's where I met her.

My now wife had been through a similar experience and signed up for the same class. So we got to know all each others dirt before we ever dated.

If you want to know the truth, finding your wife at a class on codependence probably shouldn't be your Plan A. But we've made it work 11 years now.

Bound to better than in a bar, drunk as shlt and just after banging some trucker in the parking lot

Met mine in a chat room back during the old days of the internet. We were both on there for about a year and a half before we started paying attention to each other. She invited me up to Boston to visit her. I had her down to Kentucky to visit me.

That went back and forth for a few times and I just said she should move to Kentucky to eliminate the flying expenses.

That was 19 years ago.

We get along pretty good. I'm ornery enough to make her run her yap at me every now and then,....and that makes me run my yap back at her. Then everybody's happy until the next time.

Neither of us would be happy if we didn't have somebody around that we could run our yaps at every now and then.
