JFF Where Did You Meet Your Husband?

Work. We were both 19 and working retail. How did I know he like me? He picked me up and tossed me in a clothes bin full of clothes. How elementary school is that? :)

We met in college. I was dating his best friend!! I was actually in bed (with the best friend) when I met The Man Who Would Become My Husband. I know, I know--but things were different in college!

I was his maid ;)
He was my step-dads roommate and I cleaned their house once a week while I was in college for some extra $. He worked nights at the time and would be there in the am to let me in. Things just went from there!
We dated 7+ years and have been married for almost 9.

In middle school and no we were not teachers we were 13 years old! Bwahahahaha!

After the first day of middle school for our daughter, as she got into the car, I asked her "how did it go? Did you like your classes?"
She answered, "Yeah"

I asked her "did you like the teachers? She answered, "Um Yeah, they were ok."

I asked did you meet some new friends? " She said, yes a few, we sat together at lunch."

I then asked, did you think you met your future husband?"
She looked at me and sida "You guys are so gross! No WAY!"
Hee, hee..

Well I met my first husband in a ditch.....should have left him there. HA! I only bring that up to say that I sort of met my current husband (and last) in a ditch as well. I actually went with my friend to meet the guy she was seeing who happened to be with my husband that day helping him haul hay. We met them at a restaurant for lunch and then made plans to go hang out at his house afterwards. On the way he had a flat on the trailer and had to pull over and unload the hay. By the time we got to where they were, my husband was lying on a horse blanket in the "ditch". So I met him "again" in a ditch. LOL.....I met him when I wasn't looking for someone. I had given up on trying to find someone. It happens when you least expect it. :)

By the way, I'm not encouraging you to look in "ditches" but I just had to share my story with you. :)

Fun question! I met my wonderful, amazing husband @ Saks Fifth Avenue. I was working with diamonds and he working as the security guard for the day. I knew the second I saw him that we were meant to be. I talked with him and was so drawn to him that we went out after work the next weekend.We were inseparable after that. We have been together ever since! He is the most funny, loving, caring guy you will ever meet. Everyone loves my hubby and he is the best daddy in the world.

So, if you are looking for the man of your dreams: look in places that you enjoy. Park, library, shopping, etc. Do you have any hobbies? If so, look there.....When you stop "lookin" you will find him or he will find you. Best wishes!

I met my husband when we were little around 3 or so. My Dad and his step dad where friends when they were little. We went to the same school together for a while, the same church, spent time together as kids we went to visit when they were in Indiana living. Then when we were teens we didn't see each other until we were 38 he stopped at my Mom's one day around 3pm to visit her, my Mom kept my kids while I worked I got home about 6:30 he was there waiting still LOL. My house was falling down around me and he came over the next day to help with a drain in the bathroom. He called me a few days later to take me and the kids to get icecream then it just went from there. A few months later we went to Vegas and got married that was 18 years ago this August.

Honestly- at a bar. He was bartending and I was newly 21. I had a friend who also worked there introduce us. He called me the next day for a date and we have been together ever since. It honestly was lust at first sight that rapidly progressed to love. Within 6 months we were living together. It's been almost 11 years now and still going strong!

I met my husband at work. :) We no longer work together though since our company has a policy against this. O well worked out better for us in the long run.

I met my husband at an after-hours party at the neighborhood coffee shop. We were both abysmally married to other people at the time; we both happened to be friends with the shop's owner and we both love poetry. The host introduced us so that I might come read at the open mikes.

I was struck by how beautiful my (unbeknownst to me) future husband was. And I didn't think anything more of him for months, through my divorce and even as I began attending the open-mike. Nothing.

Then another mutual friend said he'd been asking how I was doing when he'd come over to her place. (Her roommate was friends with him.) That's when I had the "aha!" moment and thought I'd just invite him out to talk about poetry. This blossomed into our mutual passion for Kung Fu movies, gardening and all sorts of other fun. He's such a great guy... and the old coffee shop is now a restaurant. We went there for drinks recently and marveled at how beautifully the last almost-ten years have looked in retrospect. We have a sweet house, a sweet little boy, a happy garden and a rich life. Lovely.

So if your neighborhood barista/coffee shop owner says 'You've gotta meet this guy..." ~ do it!

oh, and yes, he was divorced too before we started dating. Just thought I'd add that. I'm *not* into married guys. ick.

Met my husband at a bar! A nice dinner type bar.
I noticed him. He noticed me.
I was with my friend. He was with his friend.
Finally, as we were about to leave, he came up to me with the typical canned pick up line. "Hi, want a drink?"
I said no, I already have one, but he can sit down with me and my friend. So he did. He had a European accent. And long gorgeous hair and looked like Antonia Banderas. I told him "I bet, you think you can get any woman because of your accent." He said "Well, that is usually what women love...and they come up to me." I said "well it doesn't impress me and I don't go up to guys."
He was flabbergasted at my spunk. And because I didn't fawn over him.
He liked that about me.
We chatted.
It turned out that he and I had a friend in common.
I called my friend right there to ask if this was true, that he knew him. It was true.
Then I said I had to leave, and he asked for my phone number. I said "No, I don't give my number out."
Then me and my girlfriend left.
(I figured, if he really wanted to know me, he'd find a way to get my number. ie: from our mutual friend).

So then, a couple of days later, he called me. Got my number from our mutual friend.
We all went out for a dinner, and got to chat and get acquainted in a casual way. Me, him and our mutual friend and others.
From there, it just took off.
It was bells and whistles.
We knew, we were meant for each other.
And we got married a year later.

Been married 13 almost 14 years now.
No its not perfect. Not an everyday Honeymoon.
But we are still married.
Despite difficulties, thus far.
And we've had a lot.
He has said though, that I am his rock and I am the only one that knows him and still puts up with him.
We are both not perfect.

I met mine on Myspace. We chatted thru the last month of my pregnancy, when my infant was 2 months old - we met in person at a Super Walmart and he went shopping with me LOL.

We stayed on friendly terms - watching a movie at my house every other month for almost 2 years before I felt I was ready for sex and I asked him point blank if he found me sexually attractive. I wasn't sure, because we'd never progressed farther than a hug in the 2 years and 4 months I've known him. He said yes, very much so - I asked him if he wanted to meet up for sex... afterwards, he took me out to dinner and we started being a couple 1 month later.

We lived together after dating 5 months, lived together almost 3 years before getting married and now #2 is coming in July. He's always treated my little girl like his own (once we started living together) and she didn't start calling him Daddy until after we were married. My husband LOVES hearing her call him that!

Short answer: a bar

Long answer: I went out with girls from college and he was out with a group of guys. One of my friends and one of his friends were dating each other. As the two groups met up, I noticed him immedietly! The rest is history!

Isat next to him in an airplane. by the end of the flight, he had gotten my number and we had a date planned for later that week. :)

7-11 hahaha (it's a gas station)
I went in every day in between jobs to get a Dr Pepper (cause that's how healthy I am!) and he worked there. We started talking and became friends and then started dating. We got married after 5 years and have been mariied for 6 years in August!

Good Luck
P.S. my sister met her hubby at a gas station too... weird huh? Maybe you should start looking there hahaha

We met online in an MTV chat room (when that was the "place to be" before MySpace and facebook) almost 12 years ago. We kept it strictly friends until I was 18. We knew we were meant to be together- when I was 19 we decided to meet. Now here we are 3 years of marriage, 2 kids, 3 cats, and a house later.

I met my fiance at 7-11... I can't believe I'm not the only one, lmao! We were both smokers but have since quit together (gross, I know but yay for quitting). I guess you never know where it could happen. I met my ex-husband while working in Africa. I think online dating is a good option - isn't there an lds singles website? That might screen out any awkwardness...

I was the second person my husband met when he landed in Germany....

I met him at our unit...the moment I shook his hand, I knew HE was the one...even though I was legally married (separated and living in the same place) to someone else....

We met online waaaaaay back in 1998!!! It was still a bit taboo back then, so we chatted via computer for about 6 months before actually meeting. We went out on three or four dates, had some chemistry but were in different places in our lives so we went our seperate ways for TWO years. He contacted me via email and invited me to lunch. We got engaged a year later and married the summer after that. We have been married 9 years now and have two kids together!

I met my husband at a party of mutual friends, on New Year's Eve. At midnight, he walked right up out of nowhere and kissed me. The rest is history!

This probably wont help you any, but I met my hubby in 7th grade, 3rd hour. Lol.

Not the ideal place, but I met my husband at a bar/night club. Without ever talking to him I just grabbed him and pulled him out onto the dance floor with me. We ended up dating for 4 years before we got married. We've been married now for 12 1/2 years.

One of my cousins met her husband on Match.com. They dated for a couple years and they've been married now for 5 1/2 years.

In a nightclub when I was 32 yrs . We was at the bar and I shouted across at him, to let me go ahead of him. lol This was so unlike me as I am usually very lady like. 9 mths later we were married.
Hope you find love and be with only the best.

B. k

At Chili's
I was a waitress, he a salad/nacho cook.
I was 23 and pregnant and couldn't go to the bars so I would buy beer for my husband-to-be and his buddies, who were 18 and couldnt' get into the bars. At the time I was not thinking of marrying such a young child.
He enlisted in the Marines and 4 years later we were married.
We'll be married 18 years this August.

"Cruising the town square"! We were teeny boopers cruising and having fun! They were the guys from the rival town.
I can remember the first time I saw my husband and all we did was pass by each other! I did a double take and realized I had never done a double take before!

A hockey Rink. I worked as a League Admistrator and was in charge of the youth and adult hockey leagues for the facility. My husband had just moved here and was looking for information on joining a league. The rest is history.

Let me tell you though, believe it or not, there are alot of men that play or are interested in playing hockey in their spare time. Soooo many guys used to stop by after their business jobs to just let off a little steam during a hockey game. Its actually a very popular sport for the guys.

Weddings!! My cousin asked me to be in her wedding. I was actually engaged at the time but not happy. I was paired to walk down the aisle with the grooms cousin. (My future hubby) He was currently single and upset he was paired up with the engaged girl. :) We ended up talking about my engagement and that i wasn't happy. He told me not to get married because he had been in the same spot a few years ago and had gotten married and then divorced within a year. 6 months later, he and I were dating long distance and were married within a year! Five years now and 2 kids going strong. You will meet him when you least expect it. Good luck!

O man! I met mine 14 yrs ago at a teen club called vinice beach in arlington tx! I had to go thru his friends because he wouldn't talk to me. I got him tho! Been together ever since. Ten yrs later to the day our daughter was born! Try that eharmony website. One of my old customers met his wife there!

My last boyfriend before my husband threw a singles party on valentines day so that we could meet other people. We both met the person we ended up marrying that night!

My hubby and I met while working at a radio station. We worked together for about 3 months before we started dating, and the rest is history!

I met my fiance on myspace. LOL But to be fair we both had friends that knew us.

Cute question! I know you got a lot of responses but I wanted to share mine b/c I love sharing it...it is a cute story!

I met my husband at work. Apparently he saw me working when he was taking his tour of our workplace at his interview, he told me later that when he saw me he just knew 'he had to have me'. After he got hired he asked around about me and then preceded to spend the first 2 weeks at his BRAND NEW job asking me out. I played hard to get but admit to checking him out after the first time he approached me and I must say he was/is a very handsome man...I was 19y/o at the time and was used to dating 'boys' and he was absolutely a 'MAN' at 26y/o:) He used to come and kneel down at my station and chat it up with me. The guys I worked with gave me a hard time and told me to give him a chance b/c he was putting in such an effort to get me to go out on a date with him! I eventually said yes and agreed to go to lunch with him...and the rest is history! This year we will have been together for 15 years!

~My husband eventually got fired b/c he spent all his time fraternizing with me...which he said was perfectly fine with him, he didn't need the $ and that he wasn't sent there for a career, he was sent there to find me:)

*So I say keep your eyes peeled and fingers crossed every
time a new person gets hired at your workplace!

My first day at my new high school my junior year.

We started dating after I graduated two years later.

The rest is history. Twenty-five years (this fall) of history...

In one of the most geektastic ways possible. In an RP (roleplay) forum. I don't know if you have seen message forums or not, sort of like this place. Anyway, it was an X-men School setting we both played students. Our characters began to spend more time together so we exchanged instant messanger names. It helped to be able to talk to each other instantly instead of waiting for the next post on the forum, just in case one of us wanted to do something drastic or to let the other know if one of us was "teen brooding" and needed interaction to advance story. Soon we started talking more and more, soon it became less about the game and got flirty and then steamy. I finally agreed to visit for GenCon (A huge RP and online gaming convention, Geek central). I knew he was the one the moment I actually got to touch him, I wasn't going to let him go. We've been married 5 years now!

I met my hubby while dating our now house mate. It was kinda weird. I had known Danny(housemate) since High School. We had been friends for over five years when we decided to try dating. Nothing more awkward then attempting to make out with someone you have known so long and always saw as a big brother. Thank god he introduced me to Cory(my husband). I think we both were looking for an excuse not to keep dating, but didnt know how to get out without hurting each other. I am thankful we were able to smoothly get back to normal. I met the love of my life, and got to keep my best friend in the process:)

He came in to my job. He overheard me say it was my birthday and I had no plans. So, he approached me, asked me to meet him at TGIFridays and the rest is history! That was in 1997.

I met my 1st husband at school.

The places I usually meet people that I like and want to get to know better are while I am doing things I like. For instance, at the gym, my kids sporting events, church, while taking interesting classes. If you want to meet somebody, get busy living your life the way you want to live it. Get a hobby, take a class, start working out. Walk your kids around the neighborhood. Get out there in the world. When people say it happens when you stop looking or when you least expect it, that sounds like voodoo. It's not. It's when you start doing things for yourself and enjoying your life, that's when you meet someone.

I had a birthday party in my yard that was crashed by older boys(i was turning 12) , he was one of the boys, lol. That was a brief meeting, i later met him again in high school, in a mutual art class.

I met my husband in 8th grade. We had a class about giving speeches together. We dated towards the end of the school year for a short time. We were friendly throughout high school, and spent a lot of time together on double dates since I was dating a friend of his. A couple years after graduation we were both single and started spending more time together. Our friendship grew into love, we got married, and are living happily ever after.

We've known each other for more than half our lives, and have been together for 14 years and counting.

Well, this is probably not going to help, but I have known my husband pretty much my whole life (hence the reason it will not help you much) we grew up in church together, and he was good friends with my older brother. He actually moved away to live with his dad for a while and I didn't see him for a long time. Then he came back and I ran into him at my brothers house one day, and that is how it all began......

But church is a good place to find a good man.....and you can take the kids with you and there is normally some sort of Sunday School that the kids can go to and you would be able to meet people.

So I guess I can help you a little bit...... maybe....... Good Luck!

I was a bartender at Hooters and had personal rule not to date customers. I only broke that rule once in the 3 years that I worked there, and that was when I met my husband. :)

My best friend's wedding. Her fiance was friends with him since they were kids and he thought we would be perfect together. He was right! We've been together 8 years and have our second daughter coming in September!

Burger King.... He was 18 and I was 17 and he was HOT in his uniform. Knees buckling from under me right now, hehehehe... They always kept it cold in there and well, being 17 and small chested.. never wore a bra. He liked my nipples (T.H.O) and I liked his smile... Here we are 11 1/2 years later,married with 3 kids. :)

Well, we met at a bar/dance club! UH OH! It does happen. His friend was dating my friend and we all decided to meet up at a salsa club. He was great fun and we were friends for 5 years before we ever decided to date. We were best friends, so when we finally decided to "date"/marry it was only for 4 months.
I don't think the club scene is the best place to meet people, but maybe if you joined a single parents church group you could make some friends, see potential people to date, or they could introduce you to someone. Good luck!

As a dare...friend dared me in 2002 to try eHarmony...2 days before my 30 days ended...his profile popped up and he was the first one I was truly intrigued by. So I had to pay $50 more because we ran out of time to get through their system. Best $100 I ever spent!

Oh and I lost the dare! I said internet sites don't work. Then my A. decided to try it and she found love too.

I met my husband when we were both in college through a mutual friend. We were on campus and I was with our friend. He came over to talk to her and we ended up talking for hours. We kept "meeting" on campus after that and going on lunch dates, and after a month he asked me on a date. We've been together pretty much ever since. It helped that we had mutual friends who knew that he was a good guy but had not dated him before. ;-)

We met at church...I blew him off for 6 months..I think because I was oblivious to the interest..ah duh...lights on no one home...
He tracked me down swore after first date not to see him again...It was totally like a job interview...and deep philisophically...and serious...what happened to the jokester...
Anyway, gave him another chance..great second date...led to third....etc..2 years after that engaged and married...Married 8 years...no regrets :)

Oh how fun!!!!! We started talking to each other on a phone dating service. Not quite your traditional way I suppose but here we are 12 years later!!
Two kids, a miniature schnazuer, a nice home, blessed to be a sahm, and I couldn't ask for more. I try everyday to make his day a bit easier, he works very hard. He does the same for me. Sometimes I feel super spoiled because he just takes such good care of me. ;)

Met my husband in college. He was my boyfirends roomate - boyfriend graduated and moved, me and the roomate stayed friends for a couple of years and eventually started dating and just celebrated our 9 year anniversary last week!

On a website called straphaels.net in 2003 (which is now called catholicmatch.com) We will be married 6 years this November :)

I met my first husband at a singles dance. After we divorced, I was SO DONE with men. I was 39 and swore I would never marry again. A year after my divorce I thought, why the heck is my ex out having all the fun and I'm not? So I went on a couple websites and went out a couple times....all losers...so back to saying NO MORE! Then literally that Friday afternoon, my phone rang and it was a guy I had met once, he took me to lunch because someone had given him my biz card and said we could send each other biz, it was basically a biz meeting (but I thought he was cute and was a single dad!). Well, that was 3 months before and I talked to him briefly a few times when he sent me some clients. So now he's on the phone, asks me what I'm doing on the weekend...nothing...he asks me to breakfast (I was like huh?) ok, we went and have been together ever since and happily married for 2 years in Oct!

I met my husband at work...I had moved to Idaho after a bad breakup so I could stay rent-free with my parents, save some money and move back to SLC. I worked as a waitress at a restaurant and made friends with the cooks, my hubby was one of the cooks.

He wasn't even that friendly at first, but I was desperate for some sort of social life since I had moved away from all my friends and was quite lonely. He would say things like "we are going to a movie... you can come if you want" (totally sounding like "ugh, don't really want you to come") but I would go, lol! He would throw food at me at work and other dumb stuff. I must be clueless. My mom finally pointed out that he must like me. We were friends for 3 months, dated 1 month before we were engaged, and were engaged 4 months before we were married. It all happened very fast but I am lucky, we are a good match and have been married 10 years now.

As for your situation, I think you are most likely to meet people with similar interests and values at work, school etc. That is too bad the singles ward does not have nursery. You might have luck meeting someone just by taking your little boy places like the park, swimming, etc. I sometimes see dads at places like that, and I would imagine that some of them are single. Good luck to you!

First husband doesn't count...but I met him in the officers quarters...he stalked me...

Second husband, when I was a single mom too, I met at one my best friends weddings...a romantic and wonderful place to meet someone, eh?

I wasn't looking at that time. I was happy with my daughter and job, but also lonely at times...lonely for a shared future with the right kind of man.

If you are LDS and if that is important to you, I would like to recommend you stretch outside your mental box and stop thinking that no LDS guys would ever want a single mom. I would give some of the men more credit in their thought processes than that and not pre-judge what you expect them to think of you. Be yourself. Be happy with your self and your child. That alone will attract more guys than you can possibly imagine.

I am in general a positive and happy person. I always see the good in situations as well as the potential downfalls. But I'm definitely enthusiastic about life and it's many rich possibilities. Needless to say I have had many marriage proposals before I choose my hubs now. Make yourself attractive, not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually well rounded too.

Good luck finding the right one. He's out there for you!

P.S. - all my high school boyfriends were LDS and there is one in particular if I was single..I'd marry tomorrow. And he's divorced with kids...we'd make it work...there are a lot of great LDS men....

The first time I met my husband was at his cousin's 6th birthday party - we were both 5 at the time. Later, our paths crossed again in high school when we were 15 and we became friends. We started dating at 16 and have been together ever since - 13 years, married for 7 :o)

I know that doesn't help *you*, but you asked! haha

Met my fiance online. We were both divorced and had kids.. It was just great timing for both of us. Our first date was at hte botanical gardens, and the second date was to dinner and then I had to get my kids from gymnastics.. We talked on the phone every night for hours like teenagers though! We didn't kiss until the 3rd date at the movies. He sat next to me and rubbed my arm I was so distracted I don't remember any of the movie!
Plenty of fish - its free so there are weirdo's. I found it was ok to email a couple times, but talking on the phone is when you really get a sense of who they are- ie one guy claimed he didn't smoke- sounded like he smaoked a pack a day- so i asked and he said well when i signed up I was trying to quit! My fiance was just about to go on a date with someone he had met on ther who was "separated" from her husband, and the day before the date she called him up to warn him that she still lived with her husband-! He did not go on date!

i met my bf (not husband but we live together and have been together since october of 07 and have a 2 yr old together) online in 07 and just really fell in love with each other and we made it work

there are tons of single parents meetups on meetup.com...not used for dating but to hang out and have common interests...but i know a lot of the people end up dating. Try getting into a hobby or try online sites...i met my ex when i was 14 he was my bf's first boyfriend when they were 12 (4 years older than M.)

Denny's Restaurant . It was the local hangout for my friends and I when we were in college. Started talking, became friends, dated, then married.

I met my first husband in college, and he was a "nice guy" who helped convince me to dump my current abusive boyfriend. We fell into marriage right after graduation as friends. Four months later, I landed my first professional job. On my first day of work, I was introduced to my new co-workers, including this guy named Bill. He was 30, married with a young son and a baby on the way. He and his wife had been in marriage counseling for six years...

He tells me that for him it was love at first sight. It took me just a bit longer. We were both married at the time, so it was two years later before we could openly date, then move in together, and eventually marry. He's been in my life for 27 years now. It's been good, bad, rewarding, and exhausting but he's part of my life for the long haul.

Ok, so my gal pal and I were on our way out to a bar to see a friend's band play ... I got a call from another gal pal that I was NEEDED at a house party for a group of guys that just move to dallas from chicago (a band) and there is one guy in particular I need to meet! Well, a case of beer is cheaper than the entrance fee and a few beers at the bar so we decided to go. Turns out my gal pal chose the right girls ... but for the wrong guys! I was inteded for my man's best friend and her other friend was intended for my man ... took us about a week to figure that out for sure but it was hilarious when we all figured it out!

The bar. I was working and he was new in town and frequent visitor to the establishment. For a while, I was wondering what we'd tell the kids, but hey, we'll stick with the truth. It has worked for us!!

I knew him peripherally through friends, but he wasn't a friend of mine. Just someone I knew on sight. I'd just sworn off men for a year, and wasn't looking to date at ALL (I was quite happy in my no-men-zone). I went to an all night party and he was the driver in the carpool. There were 4 cars going, I just happened to end up in his. Since I've got these stupid long legs, I was up front. 3 hour drive each way. Danced until dawn on the beach.

And he lied to me. From that day onward, he lied through his teeth for YEARS. He wanted all the same things I wanted out of life with JUST enough variation / back story to make it seem like he wasn't copying me. The truth has only come out these past few months. We want (and wanted) NOTHING similar to each other out of life.

Manipulative Bastard.

If I've learned 1 thing from him, it's to pay squat attention to what people say and pay attention to what they do. Of course, because he was only pretending to 'go along' with me, he's been miserable and resentful of me for 10 years. Seriously, who wastes that kind of time??? Not only that, but on the things he's differed from me (he wanted to buy a house BAD, for example, and I didn't)... I compromise and we buy the house, and come to find... nope. He never wanted a house. But because "I'm a woman" I SHOULD want a house, so therefore he pushed for it / 'convinced' me for 'my own good'. (Or because it makes it more difficult to leave him? I strongly suspect... since even with CS & SS... there's no way I can afford it).

Ugh.

Have to start off with ~~There is Nothing wrong with being Single !!!! Enjoy your 'alone' time and being with your son, who is Such a Doll BTW :-) lol
I met hubby on Match.com !!! he lived So Close BUT we would have Never met otherwise !!!!!!! Just go on and start looking, you dont have to create an account if you dont want, if someone peeks your interest then you can sign up!
Good Luck hun xoxo

** I'm sorry, I didnt mean it to sound cruel in any way. I wish you the best! lots of love, laughter, 'tiffs' and "make-ups"!!!!

I'm not married but I met my bf (of 3 and a half years, soon to be fiance.....?) in college. I was an Residents Assistant (basically I was in charge of everyone who lived on my floor) and he was one of my residents! Whoops! I guess I couldn't resist when I went to introduce myself to everyone by knocking on their doors and he answered wearing just his towel around his waist (he had just gotten back from the showers). I was so caught off guard and he made me blush so bad that I just walked backed to my room, stuttering something about it being nice to meet him and that I'll come back later. I found out later that he was the nervous one when we first started hanging out. hehe

i am lds as well!
my hubby and i met when we were preteens at church activities. i did not like him at first!! i thought he was gross and hairy!
but the more he came over to hang out with my brother, i noticed he was different than my brothers other dumb friends!
his parents went inactive, so we ended up taking him to church and church activities and dances but i still didnt really talk to him much.
in high school we started to hang out a little and go to dances together and had so much fun he became one of my best friends!
then we started dating, got married right out of high school, after our third baby we got sealed in LA. now ten years after our first kiss, we are still happy as ever and i feel i have the church to thank (and heavenly father of course!!)

my bff from church just got a divorce, she has one little boy and she was complaining that she was never going to meet a good guy and go to the temple, but i told her she should never be negative about that sort of thing, because thats exactly what satan wants! he wants us to be discouraged from doing the right thing!
if you do what heavenly father commands, you will be blessed in more ways than you know! satan will try and tempt us with our weaknesses in the most crucial times of our life, dont give in to him and you will be blessed. i know this because i have been through it. we all have one way or the other, right?
sending love from the OC!

I married my best friends Brother. She & I were very close friends for several years & her parents loved me. She decided that her brother & I would really hit it off & she was right. So now she is not only one of my very best best friends but she's also my sister n law.

Best Wishes

I met my husband at a night club. I was 22, and he was 32. We were introduced by a mutual friend. We became friends and after a few months started dating. We have been married now for 8 1/2 years.
