What a great question!

I first met Steve in 1986. He was teaching a first aid class that I took. We were both married to other people at the time. We became friends, and had the common interest of EMS. In 1989, he got divorced, and started dating someone else. In 1992, my ex and I seperated, and Steve had just broken off his relationship. Good karma and good timing! We started dating in May 1992, and our first vacation was WDW in July 1992!

We got engaged in August, 1995, moved in together in January 1996, married in July 1996, and moved into our new home in December 1996. I can't believe it's almost 8 years already!

He is my soulmate!

I was the Purchasing Secretary and he worked in Maintenance for a Resort Hotel.It was the winter and freezing in the new office they had moved us to cause there was no heat running to it yet, and he ended up doing the work.

DH was a friend of a guy one of my friends was dating. I met him at a party one night, and didn't really care for him . Over the next couple of weeks we all started hanging around together, and he really started to grow on me. Now it's 10 years later, and we've been married for 2 . It's a good thing I didn't go with my first impression!

I met my sweet hubby back in late 1989 when I went to work for a computer company in Northern VA. We used to say "hi" in the break room. Then I left and went to work for the Gov't. Eventually he was sent to be an onsite contractor in my facility. I was working on a project that was going to involve lots of travel and lots of hard work, and he was assigned to work with me.

After much travel and time spent together on the road, we discovered that we were in love! He even proposed to me while on a trip to Germany!!!

Then, a few years later he came on board with the Gov't as well. When he found out he was being sent to Hawaii for a month, we decided that we wanted to get married there! Hawaii was the location of many of our earlier trips. So I took leave, went to Hawaii with him, and we were married there surrounded by our friends that live on Oahu.

Met my DH in freshman Chemistry at Tech our first Fall quarter in '81. We didn't start dating till the beginning of Spring quarter but dated all the rest of the way through college and got married in '86 after working for a year. How I do love that man!

DH and I went to the same church. He had just broken up with another member, and I was free. We dated a month after we met, and got married 5 months later.

You guys are cracking me up with these answers! Too funny.

Paul and I met in January 1982, my first semester at 4C's. We were both communications students in TV/Radio Broadcasting, and worked at the college radio station. Our first date was that April - a Police/Bow Wow Wow concert at the Providence, RI Civic Center. We eloped on July 18th, 1986 and are living happily ever after.

I met DF when he was 10 and I was 12. He came to sleep over as a friend of my brother. He was sweet even then and we got along great as friends. We would run into each other every once in a while but nothing ever really happened. Then last year he came by for Christmas to visit and brought a girl he was seeing. I was surprisingly sad when he left. It turned out he was only casually dating her and it ended just before my brother and he became partners in a music studio(Yes!! Support your local bands!). I knew I kind of liked him but during the construction phase of the studio he hurt his back and was in the ER. I totally freaked out. Thank God it turned out to be something minor and we've been inseperable ever since.

I really enjoyed all your stories thanks for sharing and thanks for asking Cheryl!

I met my husband at an Eastern Star Meeting. Eastern Star is a women's social/charitable organization for the wives, widows, daughters, and sisters of Masons. He was joining(men can belong too but the women are in charge) and I was the one who was escorting him through the initiation. This was in 1996. We didn't have our first date until 1997. We got engaged in 1998 and married in 1999.

I met my hubby 12 years ago when I began working at the same restaurant as him. We were both dating other people, but became good friends and would go to Denny's after work for a bite to eat and complain about our relationships. After several months of being good friends one night after a BLT at Denny's he had drove me back to my car and before I got out of his car he planted a kiss on me. OOLLAAA LA! It all changed from there and I saw him in a new light. We moved in together about four months later and have been together since. We were married five years ago this upcomming July.

Great question Cheryl,

I meet DH when I worked for a buying club. I called him and sent him the info and he came into the club to hear the "info", he waited for me outside, but I was working late, so he left. I took his # home, very illegal, and called and asked him out on our First Date. 2 weeks later he asked if I would take care of him when he was 65 and retired and I told him how does he know we would even know each other when we were that old, unless he was asking me somthing? 3 days later we were shopping for diamonds, 2 months later I moved in and Dec of 1995 we were married, Honeymooned at at WDW of course.

Next year we will celebrate 10 years of marriage and 2 DS!

I met my husband at a horse racetrack. I was working as a teller taking bets and he was working as security. It was the best paying night job I could find as I was paying my way throught Graduate school and doing my student teaching at the same time. We went on our first date to a nice Italian place in the North End, and then he took me to see Aladdin. He gave me a glass Aladdin figurine as a present. He left the next day for a family trip to Disney World. When he came home it was close to Valentine's Day, and on our date for Valentine's Day he gave me a beautiful gold Minnie/ Mickey bracelet. We were engaged a 1 1/2 years later, and Married a year after that. Jasmine and Aladdin were the cake topper for our wedding cake, our first dance was "A Whole New World", and of course, we went to Disney World for our Honeymoon!

Thanks Cheryl for the smile today!
