How long ago did you meet her and where?
Met the ex in high school, she had just moved here. I was driving by her house, saw her sitting on the tailgate of her dads truck. I stopped, ask her out. We were married 11 years. Met her in 1970
I met the second in a dance hall in 1983. Her friend came up, told me her friend wanted to dance. I was thinking fat girl, but I went with her, Glad I did!

1974. I was a bartender at a decent steakhouse. Met her at the boss's house at Thanksgiving dinner/party. She was dating my boss's younger brother. I asked her out. Forgot all about the date and accidentally stood her up. She gave me a second chance. Married in 1976 and lasted until 1999.

Wife dropped her younger cousins at my place for a ride to a party. She had a date and later showed up at the party showing off the 'ring' her date just gave her. Told several there that she would be out with me by weeks end. That was mid 83, we've been married since early 85.

1972, on the beach. Love at first sight. Went out for a year, I left for college. We both ended up with someone else. Her husband was a stinker, my wife was a nice girl, who did almost everything right. The almost was a biggie, though. Divorced, fixing to marry the first one, next month. Finally. Long road.

Met her at a NYE party. Was bored....nothing to do so went. Got hammered. Some buds there....introd me to several hot gals. Not interested....just there for the beer. They kept bugging me and I told em that there was one....proly gone now. Turns out she was there w her sis....who knew one of the guys i was hanging with.
So totally blasted i had to talk to her when they stopped by. Clock struck midnight and I kissed her. She slid down the wall. Danced a couple times, went and chatted til sun came up.
She later said in her head she heard a squeaky womans voice say " youre gonna marry that guy" before we even met
Was married about 12 years and she did the middle age freak out. Divorced. Came back 5 yrs later.....did not remarry. Been together about 12 more.
Am ready to dump her for a big titted one w good hunting ground.

Met her at a house party on my 16th birthday which was the first time I had my drivers license. It took me a couple years to ask her out but we were married on Valentines Day 1970 and still going strong.

I've had a lot of em...
The latest probably only a year and a half. I'm beginning to think that either she's crazy or I'm crazy.
Probably both.

I've known her since the 5th grade, but started dating when I was 16 and she was 17. We both worked at Fred Meyer in high school, her in the photo department and me in automotive/sporting goods. We got married right after I graduated school and have been together 31 years.

Hanco: Met my beloved in 1970 - we married in 1976 after a long "trial co-habitation" and have been blissfully together ever since. Don't tell the VarmintWife that I can not remember exactly where we met, though. We ran in the same social circle and met somewhere in Seattle. Aaaaahhhh.... how time flies.

I met her when she was dating my best bud. The next week I went to a party and saw him with another girl and asked him about her, he gave me her number so I called her and asked her out.
We dated for 4 years and we've been married 31 years, she's gotta be the luckiest woman on the face of the earth!
