dragon lady Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Feel free to be more specific. Edit: I forgot to add online! If a mod is out there, could you add that one for me?
absinthe Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 My car got stuck in the snow and my husband helped to shovel me out. He's a neighbor of close friends of mine who I was visiting. Maybe I should have voted "on the street" but chose other.
Dako Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I met my last love online. She is still in my thoughts but I'm looking for someone who pulls at my ancient heart. Yeah, even us fossils have a heart.
sophie274 Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Edit: I forgot to add online! If a mod is out there, could you add that one for me? Did that for you - unfortunately I couldn't change the order (or I couldn't figure out how to do it).
dragon lady Posted April 25, 2010 Author Posted April 25, 2010 Did that for you - unfortunately I couldn't change the order (or I couldn't figure out how to do it). Thank you! It won't happen again.
sophie274 Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Thank you! It won't happen again. We'll let it go for now . To answer your question, I'm single, but I've met my short list of boyfriends through: - school/university, for two of them - a mutual "friend" (my sister) for another - an organized/group (volunteer) trip that I was on And my current "crush" is a good friend of a good friend. Absinthe - your story is adorable! The stuff of romantic comedies.
CallingAllAngels Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 We met at a small local bar/restaurant. He sent a drink down, and I thought I found my true love......it was love at first site for me.
absinthe Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Absinthe - your story is adorable! The stuff of romantic comedies.Thanks. Our city doesn't normally get heavy snowfall so helping dig each other out when it happens, isn't unusual. I was just being silly that day wearing high heeled boots and didn't have a shovel. Lucky for me, he showed up and the rest is happy history!
alli Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 My bf & I met because I planned a paintball trip & he came with his roommate (who I already knew;we were both in ROTC). We became facebook friends but didn't talk much until about a year later. So I guess it's a combination of friend, social activity, and online. But I clicked friend.
dragon lady Posted April 25, 2010 Author Posted April 25, 2010 It's interesting because I'm always hearing people telling singles to try meeting through clubs, activities and volunteering, yet it seems rare to come accross people who actually meet that way. The most common seem to be through friends or work, even though it's often frowned upon to date someone you work with. Online has become very common too. I wonder whether it will become the top place to meet at some point.
sidehop Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I wonder whether it will become the top place to meet at some point. Probably along with Facebook and social networking sites.
Leaps Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I was working at a store when my love came in, flirted (even though I was oblivious to what it was), then called 10 mns after leaving the store and gave me his number. I clicked approached in a store because mostly when you say you met through work, it means working together or through a coworker or something. He said he had to know me.
LilBear Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 We officially met online. But my bf is a friend of my ex. So technically, I chose "other".
doyathink Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Since you dont have gutter as an option, Ill go with other on how I met my ex. The guy Im seeing now I met at work. Hes a customer that comes in all the time, and asked me to lunch several times.....till I finally said yes.
thejigsup Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I decided that I wanted a very specific type of man, so I went online to find him. It was like shopping for a man! I met a few truly wonderful men and only one creep. If you know how to do it, online dating is wonderful. We met almost 11 years ago and we are still together. It works if you know how.
arcadefire Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Through a friend. We were all at the same club and we clicked instantly when we shared our love for the same band!
huskiesfan Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 A meeting of the board of our university's marching band. Turns out she had a crush on me for months, but didn't begin talking to me until I talked to her on Facebook filling her in on the portion of the meeting she missed.
ButterflyWrists Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 We officially met online. But my bf is a friend of my ex. So technically, I chose "other". same for me!!! Though I clicked through a friend (my ex gave my boyfriend my email address lol)
