Reading about bonners escapades reminded me of a funny story. My first husband and I went out on our first date. He, like my dad was a mechanic. I guess I envisioned him just like my dad. We were driving (he was actually driving) down the highway and there was a truck part in the middle of the road. I didn’t get nervous or anything because I assumed he would swerve. I’ll have you know he ran directly OVER the damn thing. The gas tank was ripped open. He pulled over to the side of the road and we both got out. He starts running towards me and grabs my cigarrete. I am looking at him like he is nuts. He grabbed my pop and stuck the cigarette in it. I still did not realise what happened. We get back in the car and we are flying down a very busy road. He stops in at a gas station and gives me like 3.00 in change and has me run in and pay the guy. I come back out, we jump in the car and get home just in time- before he ran completely out of gas. Apparently, he had pumped 3.65 cents into his tank and we had to go back to pay the guy. By the time we got there, two police cars and two fire trucks were at the scene. I panicked!!! Come to find out, the gas station attendant called the police immediately after we left over the extra 65 cents. The fire department wasn’t happy about having two miles worth of gasoline spills down one of the busiest roadways around. Come to think of it- might have been more like four miles. First date- should have dawned on me then that the relationship was not meant to be!!! Five years and a lovely daughter later- I finally filed for divorce. Tammy

Oh I told them we were dating and they said no your not. I said yes we are. In November I told them I was married and they said no your not. They could not believe it until I walked the marriage license down to them. However they were a hoot for friends. Just embarrassed the pants off of me almost. I could not believe they did that to me. I told them not to say anything. They said they wouldn’t, but 2 seconds later they were blabbing it to him. I just knew I should kiss him goodbye. I thought he was gone. That only made him more excited. Ya want to know what else brought the marriage together. My Mom’s cooking. He said if my mom could cook that good I have potential. Well, they say the way to a man heart is his stomach. LOL Try riding down the road with a condom stuck to the antenna Sp. Brain is not working to good right now. OH we got a plunger that night also for a wedding present. This old man said you will need this, and nobody buys them for wedding presents. Guess where it went? On top of the car. It was too damn funny. Go a lot of honks. With just married. Oh here is another funny story. So if you do not like bad stuff here is your chance to exit. We were driving to Oklahoma City one day so my hubby could get some kind of contacts. I was bored so I wrote honk if you are horny on piece of paper and stuck it to the window. This guy car did not have a horn so he began pushing on where his horn was and laughing. So we are besides this old folk bus and drove up this old man stood up and started pushing on the glass. I cannot tell you how many replies we got. Well, on the way back the sign was still up, and a trucker passed us slowed down next thing we knew we had a convoy. It was too much fun. They would slow down and let the other truck in front so on an so forth. Then they began writing notes back and forth to us. At this time we did not have a CB. So the guy was talking on the CB what he wrote and what I wrote back. This was before we got married also. Now I cannot do anything because he gets mad. Those were the days I tell ya. We did so many funny things it would make your head spin!! Everyone could tell we were newly weds. Bonner

This is so kewl how people met their Dh and Dw. My experience was sort of funny and embarrassing. I worked in a nursing home I was a housekeeper and Phil was a security guard. One day I met my hubby he was so cute in his security guard outfit. It reminded me of milkman. So I told a few friends he was cute so they in turned saw him walking down the hall and started yelling a security guard come down here. So he came as he was walking they started saying Linda has the hots for you. So I now knew I was losing my cool so I ran. Very shy and embarrassed. So they kept saying that I had the hots for him. So I ran to the bathroom trying not to cry and one of my friends stuck her big fat foot in the door. So I gave her a shove and ran to the next open room which was a kitchenette. Another one got her big foot in the door before I could lock it. I was really getting embarrassed at this time. So Phil just kept walking and finally made it where I was and he has this funny grin on his face. Next thing I knew he asked me for a date. So now I had not dated in a while and said to one of my friends what do I say to him. She said share your high school story with him and tell him about yourself. I always thought he was cute. On our first date he took me to the hunt for red October. Boring! So I reached over and gave him a tickle and that was all it took and he was all over me. We were laughing so hard that the usher of the theater came and told us to shh or leave. So we shhhhh for a few. So after the boring movie we went to Wendy’s. We dated every day after that til we Married. So from March til Nov. He picked me up at 3:00 dropped me home at 11:00. We are still in love as we were the day we Married. At our wedding it was another embarrassing moment. He wanted to criss cross our glasses. So I said okay and he was trying to go to my mouth instead of his and I could not figure out why I could not get it to my mouth. Looked up saw the problem the pictures are a hoot, and every body was laughing at us. OH on our wedding night he got drunk and that was the first and last time he drank. He was so funny he was blowing up condoms and throwing them out side our hotel door. Everyone walking by was laughing there behinds off. You could hear the roar. I drank some, but after I saw the effect it was having on him, I would drink no more. Cause I did not know how to control him. He even tied one on our car. He took my lighter to the whirlpool in our room and stuck it under water and said it doesn’t work. NO Duh! He was so funny. He stripped off naked and left his boots on and started dancing. There is more to the story but I got to keep some secrets!! Bonner

LOl….I take it he only gets to drink on special occasions, and miles from civilization now eh? At least the two of you laugh! Maybe that’s a big part of it, but who’d have thought that one of your co-workers with a big mouth would lead to marriage?

I haven’t seen too many men responding, so I will, even though our meeting wasn’t so strange. My roommate and I needed riders to share gas expenses for his parent’s van on a Spring break ski trip in college, so we posted a notice. One of the responders was from our sister college next door, of which I had a low opinion (from a couple of bad dates before). I was intrigued by her, but not strongly attracted (I thought) at first. I taunted her and her school mercilesly all week (we skiied together as a group), but I couldn’t keep her off my mind. I suppose I was doing a classic grade school show of affection by teasing. In any case, the teasing pissed her off more than anything (go figure!), and I was stunned when she told me off during a stop at my roommate’s home on the way back (it was a 28 hour drive). I thought I was just having some good-natured fun, but she took it all personally. I cleaned up my act immediately, since I realized I was really interested in her. She already had a boyfriend (not on the trip, or I wouldn’t have tried so hard), so I didn’t think I had much chance with her (low self-esteem, I guess). Came to find out that she was frustrated by his casual approach to their relationship, and I had an opening. I took advantage of it, and we started dating. At that time, I was so shy and afraid of offending her, she had to initiate the first time we even held hands and kissed (a strange story in itself)! Anyway, the barriers fell (as did the clothing, eventually :-O), and we were engaged nine months later, married six months after that. We have out 15th anniversary Thursday, and our second child is due on Halloween (maybe I can get her to dress as a nun, if she makes that far!), so it goes to show that first impressions don’t have to last. I can’t match the unniqueness of some of the other stories, but I wouldn’t trade it all for anything. RoryDog

This topic has turned out to be more interesting than I’d even thought Lusti, It seems as though the very happiest of couples here have met under some of the most tenuous of circumstances…..and it’s a hopeful sign for all of us, not only the young man I originally asked the question for. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful experience Lusti…not many people can say they’re still as madly in love after five years, as they were at the first.. .and that it all started with a comment online :-) It’s almost like what Zomby said..the correct planetary alignment..phase of the moon…who knows? but fate must have intervened to bring the perfect match together! codeee : – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text ->I met my Love online as well, in a silly newsgroup, BTW.

I was an international folk dance instructor at the community center and my Al was one of my students. He was almost 10 years older than me and I considered him my best friend and buddy. We would go out to dances ect as friends often with other partners. I was shocked when he asked me to marry him, 25 years later we are still doing fine. I married my best buddy LOL Laura, Keeper of the Hounds Servant to 4 Cats, Shadow, Terra, Storm, Shotzie. AKA Lady’s and Boomer’s Mom. Slave to the Cats.

I met my husband online in 98. When he first came here from CT, I made it clear to him that I didn’t want to date or marry anyone else. I had a job, my home and my daughter and was pretty happy. My husband just kept hacking away at my defenses and a year later in Feb. of 99 we were married. In October of 99 I had my son. Don’t DO the math- LOL. Tammy
Response:
I met hubby at an AA meeting (yikes!)! I was in my first year of sobriety; he was in his third. It was recommended that I *not* get involved with someone so early in my recovery, but you know how these matters of the heart go…it’s almost 11 years since we met and we’ve been married almost 9 years…we’re both clean and sober…he’s my best support person…when I first found pain relief through a kind doctor and Duragesic my hubby CRIED as I placed the patch on, knowing I’d finally get some relief – how sweet is that?? I have Lupus, Fibro, and a few other conditions and he has RA so he also understands a lot of what I go through. I hope he feels I support him as much as I feel he’s there for me – I sure do try. We’re a good team even though we met in a *strange place* :) Karena

Yeah to go into a bit more depth on this one: I met him in talkcitys’ parenting-singleparenting room. There were many relationships formed there and quite a few that made it. Recently, another couple that met about the same time we did had a new baby girl!! There were other relationships that went way south. 
A friend of mine from Florida met a man in the room, talked several months and visited him quite often before finally taking the big step and moving in with him. She had a boy about 6 or 7 at the time. Apparently, this man molested her little boy. When she found out of course she reported it to the police. He holed himself up in the house and before the police could talk him out he killed himself. My friend and her son are devastated. The guilt she feels is overwhelming for her. Still, another girl whom I never talked to and wasn’t familiar with, was apparently killed when she tried to meet a guy from the room offline. I am not trying to dwell on negatives here. I would feel so bad if someone heard my story and tried it, then had something happen to them that was horrible. If you meet anyone offline, whether it be same sex or opposite, make sure that you meet in busy public places, and find out about them as much as possible. When I look back on what I did, it was a really stupid thing to do. Don (my husband) could have been anyone. I got lucky is all. LOL Sometimes I gotta wonder just how lucky… rofl Tammy

Response:
I met my Love online as well, in a silly newsgroup, BTW. I responded to something he wrote and we started an online relationship which moved to a phone and online relationship and after a few months of that,we met and have been madly in love ever since. this was 5 years ago, adn we are still going strong. We have a long distance relationship for now, but we have not gone a day in the last 5 years without talking to each other online, on the phone or in person! I am very lucky. Lusti Good topic, Codeee
