A party, a brothel (long before Viagra, thank goodness), the internet.

I met my husband on my 26th birthday. At the time, I was going onto a music site a, morrissey fan site. He liked my user name so he sent me a pm to ask me about it. I sent him a short pm back about my user name and that was it. Well, I thought that would be it. A few months later I saw a thread of his asking should he grow out his hair. I was curious to see what he looked like so I clicked on the thread. The moment I saw his photo I knew I was going to be his wife.

I wrote a cute post about my thoughts about him growing out his hair. I spent so long making sure my post was smart and cute. I really wanted him to notice me. It worked!

We started to talk via pm and then onto IM and then onto the phone. It was just easy with him and different. Seven years ago this week he came to vegas to meet me in person. We both fell more in love with each other that week and we both knew that what we had was the real deal with each other.

A few months later I moved to, London to be with him and thats it. I have been here ever since. I still dont know how it all worked out. But it did!

I have mainly met them from online. Mostly dating sites.

online, in person..... still single, lmao...

I think everyone I've been involved with I've met online through various websites, dating websites, etc. ....*sigh*

2 of them by just standing there minding my own business .. Must of had a post it stuck on me that said talk to me .. 1 online

Chat room... where the most disturbed individuals live. I like a challenge! LOL!

Just bumping for some folks to read.

On old yahoo chat, another bf website, pof and this one I met in a Facebook group.

met people
 

mostly through other friends.

The really important relationships?

At school.
She was a student in my Pagan/Wiccan study group.
At NYC Pride.
She was drumming at a Goddess party my ex threw.
She came to an LSM meeting.

I've met a few whackdoodles online and will not be trying that again. EVER. I also met my last gf when she showed up at an LSM meeting, but that wasn't a particularly important relationship.

- Through an ex-boyfriend in high school. He told me, "I know this girl who's a lesbian, and she doesn't care who knows!" He introduced me to her, and that was all she wrote. I was head over heels. It was a short relationship, but an important one.

- In college through friends. It lasted about a year and a half, but then we moved to different cities after school.

- After moving to Atlanta, in the local womyn's chorus I met a woman who had an incredibly similar background to mine. I mean, she grew up on a farm and knew how to can vegetables. We would sit on the porch and shell peas together, and then put them up. She raises chickens now. (I got out just in time - I moved to Atlanta specifically because I was tired of living on a farm.)

- My hairdresser introduced me to one very important person. My relationship with her lasted for 7 years. I was a member of her extended family - until I wasn't. Never want to do that again.

- The latest I met online, and we've been together for 14 years. It started out as a hookup, and I really didn't think it would last more than three weeks. Just goes to show, you never know.

I now have a dear friend and what I would call a traveling companion. We met at the hotel I stay at when I'm in Chicago.

Maybe I should clarify she's a part time employee there....:giggle:

At the front desk.......

Relationships
 

I agree with CherylNYC, the most important relationships were met through friends.

Seems more like hookups on-line.

:sigh:

i've met girlfriends in just about every kind of venue, through friends, in bars, blind dates, group dates, by chance and yes online...online has actually been my favorite..i like to really know the thoughts & feelings w/o a facade which usually accompanies face to face encounters and it's usually a great deal quicker...as for hook-ups.. those happen everywhere..it depends what your motive is, in the first place:byebye:

No longer called hook-ups but "traveling companions"...I like that term better myself.

Love all my buddies, really I do.

:gotmail:

Ohhhhh! Is that what we used to call a trick?

Oh Ma'am, thank you. I thought that I was the only one that remembered "trick" with the over night bag in my car trunk.
