She was a friend of a former female friend, met at college.
We'd all hung out in the same "group" for a little while, we hadnt spoken much on our own. When we DID, I asked her to buy me a coke, and (check it out, how SMOOOOOTHE is THIS) that in exchange, I'd buy her lunch sometime. It didn't really happen at this stage. So...I kinda dissapeared for around a month, decided at the time that work was more important, and when I came back, about 5 people I knew from my course told me this girl had been looking for me. Turns out it was her, so yeah, we caught up, hung out in the group a little more, and one time she'd finished her classes for the day, I walked her to the local train platforms and asked for her number, at which point she said she was thinkin' about giving it to me anyway. So yeah, we talked on the phone a little, actually...a lot. I didn't have a home phone connected at the time, so I'd head out to local phonebooth, and give her a call...we talked HEAPS...and yeah, eventually one day after college, we decided to go out. Of course, the former female friend tagged along...which kinda sucked, but when she left, we actually started having a pretty cool time. I think we played some videogames, went and got some food, and chilled in this big-ass park, where we talked heaps and I threw little sticks down her top, which, of course, was charming. So that's pretty much it really, gave her a kiss when she left, called her place a few times to make sure she got back ok, and yeah...pretty much took it from there. I was going through a pretty shitty time at home at this point, my "family" if you can call it that, was severely FUCKED. So yeah, she offered for me to come stay with her for a while, and I accepted. That was quite some time ago now ('99 I think), and we've been together since, through fights, break-up/make-ups, study, hospital stays, long term family reunions (actually, she supported me heaps when I went to meet my father for the first time in about 12 years) and all other manner of ups 'n downs...so yeah, we tolerate eachother pretty well, and don't let a bunch of petty bullshit come between us, I think that's the important thing. Ok, I'm done writing now... - B

It's so weird that you post a thread like this...I was just telling somebody last night the story of me and my bf. LOL. ODD ;)
So anyway....get ready to barf everyone ;) Alright...when I was 19, I moved to Orlando, FL. I was going to college up here in Massachusetts, but decided that I needed a change...I'd always lived in a small town (I'm actually outside of Boston...not in it) and I wanted to see what it'd be like to live in a bigger city...away from home. My friend from high school, Brooke, had moved to Orlando after HS graduation to attend college there. Since she knew that I was looking to move, she suggested I move to Orlando...cause at least I'd know her, and wouldn't be completely alone. Sounded good enough to me :p Anyway...after moving down, I decided to get a part-time job at Disney. When I went to interview with them, however, they didn't really have any positions open that were right for me at the time. I was kind of down, b/c I really wanted to work there...but I ended up walking out to my car, and noticed that across the street there was "Downtown Disney" which, is pretty much just a bunch of nightclubs, restaurants...and the "Virgin Megastore" (no jokes please) ;) Virgin ( for those who may not know) is this huge record store....and it was located on Disney property, which meant I still got all the benefits of working for Disney :) (Free park admission, etc) so I figured I'd apply. I got a call back about a week later, and went in for an interview...and got the job. My first day of working there, I met one of the managers-Shane. YES, I fell in love with my manager....so naughty ;) AHAHAHAH. Anyway...they always say that you'll know when you meet the person you're going to marry...but I never believed it until I met him. The minute I took one look at him, it was seriously like slow motion...and I just KNEW that I was going to be with him for the rest of my life...before we even said one word to each other. It was like a magnet...we couldn't stay away from each other, and it was as if we'd always known each other. I still don't have the words for it....it was just a very very strange feeling...like nothing I'd ever experienced before. He was really shy...but he finally asked me out...we went to Universal Studios for our first date :) About 2 weeks later, he told me that he loved me...but that he had actually been in love with me from the minute he saw me...and had said the same thing I felt....that he just "knew" when he met me that I was "it". LOL. I transferred back up to a school in Massachusetts about 2 years after living in Florida, and he moved up with me. It'd odd when I think about it...b/c if if I hadn't moved to Orlando, and if I hadn't decided not to take a job at Disney...and if I hadn't applied at the record store...we would never have met...it scares me actually, to think that things may have never happened had things gone just slightly differently. ;) We've been together 4 years now, and I couldn't be happier. We compliment each other, yet still have enough differences to learn from each other. He's a complete gentlemen...always makes me feel like a lady. He still sends me flowers, writes me cards, does things "just because". And that's the way it SHOULD be. It doesn't get old or boring, b/c we don't let it. I feel extremely lucky that I have a great relationship with a wonderful guy whose literally my best friend. People always tell me that they wish that they could find the type of relationship that he and I have...and I honestly wish and hope that everyone can one day find and experience what we share. It's a beautiful thing for sure ;)

awwww,I love love love your stories guys!!
Ok Zomb,I'll tell ya mine, I brought this guy home from a bar and he never left,so I just decided to keep him..... Kidding:D Here's Mine: My neighbor kept bugging me to meet this guy she knew-for 3 months I said no and will you please shut up. She was saying the same thing to my husband,that we would be PERFECT for each other and he was pretty much telling her to go to hell. Finally,I said I would meet him at her apt. and she had to stay the whole time. I was late getting back to my house,so I ran in-changed,perfumed-lol,and went over to her apt.(I thought I looked a mess,my husband told me later I looked like a beautiful hurricane walking in-lol) I walk in and THERE HE WAS...and I swear it was just like that. I knew,I just knew,my heart sped up,I sweated,I had to sit down quickly. He was soo gorgeous,and after I talked to him for awhile,he was FUNNY. So we met on Wednesday,went on our first date Friday,and he asked me to marry him 48 hours after that. We almost got divorced once but I told that story with the NYC post I did. So September marks 10 years being together and even though sometimes I would LOVE to smack him over the head with a frying pan,I don't kick him out of bed for eating crackers:D
