UWEC, 1979. I was the Programming Coordinator for the Activities Commission and also the head of the Concert Commitee. I had an office in the student center where a bunch of us "Punk Rock/New Wave" types would hang out. She liked Punk Rock and not many girls at UWEC did back then. We are still together.

Tims is pretty good, but my Aunt and Uncle met in 1st grade during sunday school. They have 2 kids in their 30's, and are still together!

Beat that!

The Mrs. ended up taking me home from a local bar. I was in a shitty relationship which ended the next morning when my live in girlfriend, at the time, moved out when I did not come home.

Been together ever since. :)

I don't know if i should be surprised and/or disturbed by the number of people here who met their mate online. Nothing wrong with it at all, all the best to you guys...
but, fuck, i guess people actually do hook-up this way. I really had no idea. I only know one person (at least who is willing to admit it) who hooked up long-term this way, and that was my ex-neighbor.
This is an online forum so i suppose it makes sense that lots of peeps posting here are more likely to be on their computer for other things as well.

ATP, 2002. Introduced by a mutual friend.

She told me "Double Nickels On The Dime" was her favorite record. That sealed the deal.

enframed wrote:i had just moved and was interested in meeting other people who partook in an outdoor activity i enjoy so i logged in to my myspace account for the first time in years (this was 3.5 years ago). i contacted her, said i was looking for someone to do this activity with and nothing more. and i meant it, i was not looking for a girlfriend, not even for sex. i'd seriously resigned myself to the hand for a while.

she had been caring for an elderly relative and to this day maintains that if not for her mental and physical exhaustion coupled with a week's sleep-debt she would not have agreed to meet me.

she had no description of herself and only listed that she liked this activity, photography, books, movies, and bruce lee. there was a very poorly taken picture of her doing this activity. i couldn't even tell what she looked like, only that she wasn't obese. so i literally knew very little about her.

the only picture of myself i'd put up was this:

so she had very little idea what i looked like.

we decided to meet to partake in this outdoor activity and told each other what cars we had so we could find one another.

upon her arriving i was riding my skateboard (away from my car) and watching others partake. she drove up and i knew it was her by her car but she did not know it was me. she smiled at me and me at her. i followed her (on my skateboard) back to her car as she happened to park next to my car. she then realized that i was who she was supposed to meet.

we had fun outdoors and had fish tacos for lunch. i didn't think she liked me that much and while i thought she was cool and good looking i didn't expect then to be married to her now.

she said that if i hadn't had the 400 blows and safe listed as favorite films, and that i liked green tea, she might not have agreed to meet at all.


Please tell me you larp.

Please.
