Where/how did you meet your OH?

dont tell fibs now Cricks...

Remember yahoo chat! That's where we met, I'd often chat to my mates and I had a pm randomly pop up it was from him, calling me a slapper! I thought keeky chunt! and 10 years later here we are. So your all thinking why slapper, apparantly he knew it would get my attention as a pose to asking me whats my name and where do I come from! Ha! He was right. We had a long distance relationship for 4 years, which was awful, 200 blinkin miles between us but we got through it and 6 years ago I took the plunge and joined him in the Midlands.

It was 15 years ago in our first term at University - so much for being young, free and single through Uni! He was in the room below my best mate in halls and she used to be always complaining about the guy playing really loud music below her. I kindly volunteered to go and have a word!

Its just taken us an absolute age to get married!

Myspace.

Then I got a job at the place where he was already working. STALKER.

He he he!

We met through friends. I was due to go to Lord's with a chum and we'd made the most epic picnics. It poured with rain so we went back to hers to eat our tasty stuff. Her flat mate was due to be playing cricket that day but his game was rained off. He decided to join us in demolishing our picnics and invited two of his closest friends to join us.

Our eyes met across a feast of cold meats and cheese. I spent the whole afternoon chatting to him. I left feeling absolutely smitten and agreed to meet up for a drink with him when I finished my jury service.

He rescued me from there when some sh!tbag stole my handbag and I came away from dinner and drinks that night, our 'non date', knowing that he was the man I was going to marry.

My friend's flat mate was our best man and the other friend did a reading at our wedding. ?

I feel warm and fuzzy now.

Depends who's telling the story. My dad says he introduced us, I tell people it was at a pub quiz.

I knew his family growing up as his brothers were around the same age as me in school and I did work experience at his dad's firm (where I now work!), but he was that much older than me so was off in uni/travelling. He was by then home and working for his dad and I was in law school. He used to go to the pub quiz in my parents' village and his team would always fight for first place with my parents' team. My dad used to tell him about his wonderful daughter who was at law school but my poor dad is a bit of a dweeb, so he didn't have very high expectations of me. During Easter holidays I was home and went to the pub quiz, where my dad introduced us. We got chatting, became friends and eventually got together that summer.

At work.

He'd been with the company for a few years when I joined and can remeber the day I came for my look round. He tried to wangle me an invitation to the leaving do of the person I was taking over from, but that didn't happen.

We were in different departments and my desk was directly over his on teh floor above so he could hear if I dropped anything or fell over (frequent occurence with clumsy me!)

I do remember our first proper conversation in the works kitchen where we established we were both single, although I avoided him as anything more than friends for a couple of months as I was just out of a relationship and had moved long distance for the job, and he had younger children!

Phew...good thing I changed my mind!

On Dating Direct.

I want a fricking refund!!!

P*ssed as a fart walking down the road past his house, I was staggering home and he thought I looked as though I needed help LOL.

We met at work. 6 years ago this month I took a pot of tea to the head chef whilst H was having his interview. He started work the following month and we got together in the December.

Christmas day 2008, at work (I'd had one or two cocktails before starting my shift - only allowed on Christmas Day!)

Me, on reception, serving on bar as there was only one other member of staff working and she was under 18.

H, rather drunk asking if my bf minded me working on Christmas Day (his attempt at being subtle) and chatting generally for about an hour

He then wrote his name and number on a napkin and disappeared drunkenly into the night. I texted him after my shift, he called me back and begged for a date on Boxing day. We met, both already fairly drunk about 7pm, drank a fair bit more and were spotted about 9pm in our local rugby club by my boss 'sucking the life out of each other' ?

We've barely spent a night apart since, I never get tired of his company and scarily enough we never argue - it's a bit sickening and freaky!

Through work, when I was at wembley stadium I was full time and he just worked event days in the crowd safety management team. Knew each other to speak to and had plenty of mutual work friends but I was with my ex for the first 3 years we knew each other. Broke up with ex and then a couple of months later I was really enjoying being single but things just developed between us, still not quite sure how. Involved hospitals and late night ice cream but within a few months I knew I was going to marry him. Made him wait a year till he could propose though!

We joke that Rihanna's 'we found love in a hopeless place' is our song!! ?

We worked together, got together on the christmas do 2006, continued working together till I retired last year, married sept 2011. He still works there.

Via an internet forum. We kind of knew of each other on there, but weren't very close, but then there was a big forum meet up in Oxford, where he was at uni, and I decided to go along. He then proceded to invite everyone back to his room after the meal, fed us cocktails and port, played I Have Never, and the rest is history!

University. I stalked him for a year before he knew I fancied him. Had to wear a see-through top and wrap myself around him before he got the message. And only then, because his mate told him.

In a bar. I was looking above-my-average level of hotness because my ex was also there that night.My H had been watching me walking around flirting with absolutely everyone ?. He smiled at him, I smiled at him. I had to leave early because my friend got too drunk and thrw up (over my ex!!!!). I gave H my number because he smelled nice (I was a bit drunk too). He had to text me his name because I was so drunk and the music was so loud I couldn't really comprehend what he was saying to me in the bar. Thats how great love stories start ?

We worked together! we sat next to each other for 6 years

Pub+drunken hussey= how i met my hubby!

We did have mutual friends but didn't realise as he was always away on deployment when I went out with them! Mutual friends were our best man and MOH at the wedding!

Skeptics in the Pub. I decided to go out and meet people (I moved from another country to study in the UK, semester had broken up, and I was feeling pretty isolated- I'm not much for the usual university scene), and it sounded like an interesting night out. So I went, and, being shy, went for the nearest empty seat near the door. He was sitting next to that empty seat.

Met OH on Plenty of Fish. Spoke via that for a couple of weeks, then texts for a few days, then he rang on Wednesday and we chatted non stop for 4 and a half hours and arranged to meet for an afternoon drink on the Friday. Rang again Thursday and we spoke for another 3 hours.

Met him in the pub, no awkward silences, non stop chatting, both got that 'Phwoar!' feeling and we were there 3 hours.

Arranged to meet up again the weekend after...that lasted about 6 hours before we both found babysitters for our kids and we were back in the pub again ?

I didn't get that instant 'I'm gonna marry him' feeling but within a few months I could imagine it, which had never happened to me before even though I'd had 2 6+ year relationships previously.

Sooooooo romantic! Ha! Love it!

In a bathroom ?

Friends house party and I was desperate for a wee...very very drunk and him and my friend (house owner) were stood chatting in the loo so I pushed my way in and went in front of them.

Friend then (after I'd finished) introduced us. I was so drunk I couldnt get his name but my mate said show him your new tattoo... so I did! forgetting I was in a teeny tiny red dress with no knickers on, I showed him new tatt which is on my belly....

We were then on and off for 5 years then to cut a very long story short and many different country moves I followed him back here and we've been together 9 years.

Loving this thread!

I met my dude to be outside a club night in Glasgow. I was with someone else (one of those 'i'll sleep with you but won't be your boyfriend' kind of dicks) and we were having words because he blamed me for losing his jacket. Anyway, during the argument I spotted Neil. A guy was chewing his ear off about something and he looked incredibly bored. I walked away from the dickhead and interrupted Neil - said 'You look like you need saved - do you wan't me to save you?'.

He said yes. He walked me to the bus stop and that was it.

Through an internet forum!

Through a friend, i fancied him straight away!

took 2 years of being mates and both of us being in other relationships b4 we got together. oh and a look of booze and me thinking"its mybirthday, we are both single, im going to go for it!"

We met in A+E. Apparently he fancied me since I started there but I didn't realise. I didn't even realise later when we started meeting for drinks as friends. It was only on a night out that my friend told me he though OH fancied me! I didn't believe him, until OH and I had a goodnight kiss at the end of the night ❤️
