I got my wife the old fashioned way.... I hit her over the head with a club and drug her back to my cave.

That's sort of how it happened with my wife, but in reverse.

We met at a party and dated for a couple of months, but I lived in San Jose and she was in Santa Cruz, which made logistics tricky.

Then I got very sick with a really nasty upper respiratory infection, and was in bed completely delirious with high fever for a few days.

When I came out of it, I and all of my worldly possessions had been moved from my apartment to her place.

She's sneaky, ambitious, opportunistic and underhanded, valuable traits to have in a lifetime ally

I met my ex at church. Marrying her was the second biggest mistake of my life.

Haha... I'm curious enough to ask, what was the first biggest mistake???

^^^^ My wife had just barley turned 20 when we met. I was from a different world than she was. Long Hair Harley Rider rough with my speech. Though I had quit drinking before that would be the only reason she even talked to me.
Her very quite and very naive about Life in General.
I wasn't what her Mother expected. LOL MIL really didn't accept me until our tenth year and her Grandson was born. Only One by the way. His middle name is her dead husband name. Her brothers didn't think we would make 10 weeks let alone 10 years and now 26 years later. LOL

This turned into a Very Nice Thread. Good to see a lot of semi long-term relationships and how they started

Eharmony 14 years ago. FANTASTIC marriage - honeymoon never ended.

My husband and I met in the Atlanta airport during a long layover. The flight before ours had been cancelled and was combined wuth ours. Lots of unhappy campers.

Once we were finally in the air they started handing out free drink coupons to make everyone happy. Three G&Ts later I was brave/bold enough to write my number on a torn out page of my Day Timer. I gave it to him at the luggage carousel on arrival at our destination.

We had our first date two weeks later. We've been married 30 years.

He still carries the folded Day Timer page in his wallet.

The strangest "Come On" I witnessed closeup was in a small town in the mountains of Puerto Rico. Three of us were walking in the town plaza, when a group of giggling girls walked by and one slapped my friends on his back. We thought it a rather strange custom until we later noticed a Kotex pad stuck to the back of his shirt.

So that is what that note was when I was buying size 15 EE shoes

In this country, the divorce rate is still hovering right around the 40% to 50% mark. So while meeting people on line is certainly easier, faster, and far more efficient, it doesn't appear to have lowered the overall divorce rate in this country by much.... If at all. Bottom line, a lot of people still get sick and tired of each other. Human nature I guess. And no machines will improve that, anymore than Carvana will make your next used car last longer.

Met my wife at a skating rink where I was brought to meet her girlfriend. Later was invited over to their apartment for a party got stupid drunk and went home with another girl. Next night went back to try to make amends. Ended up dating for 3 months. Been married for 58 yrs.

37 years ago I was standing on the platform when the most beautiful woman I had ever seen walked into the church. We had met almost 3 years earlier and started dating. I still feel like the luckiest man in the world.

My wife and I have been married 40 years but, it's felt like 7 minutes..... under water...

I told her when I die, I want to be buried in blue jeans and a flannel shirt and she started with "Well, when I die, I wanna.." and I stopped her right there. I told he when she dies, shes just got 2 choices.. Regular or Unleaded.. That'll be the gas I pour on her and cremate her with..

Unbelievable what they charge for that simple service.. and THEN, you have to pay to bury the ashes.. What a crock..

As for dating apps, when/if my ole lady passes before I do, I'll be more than happy to live on my own with a few dogs to keep me company.

I met my wife at work, she was introduced to me as my new dispatch partner at the hospital. It was lust at first sight. Conceived our first child out of wedlock in either the ICU call room I was sleeping in or the bar parking lot. Not sure which ha ha. Been married to her coming up on 16 years and we have 5 kids together now. I'd do anything for her. Her loyalty is unbelievable. I would do anything for her. She is my Queen in every way.

Sounds like prostitutes leaving business cards to me.

Odds are they have a slot limit on the waist size of the pants that they put the slips In.
They do this at that particular chain because people that shop that brand aren't inclined to possess firearms or outdoor equipment.

If I found something like that I would figure it was a scam

 

[PurpleKitty]

One of my neighbors put up half naked photos on the mailbox along with some ways to "follow" her.

I had a stalker last year, that's not something you want in your life ever.
