Where did you first meet your Husband/Wife?

She was a head chopper at Tyson's and I went in to get a bucket of blood to make fish bait.
I thought her freckles were cute. Turns out they weren't freckles at all.
Been married 21 years.

Just kidding. We met at a mutual friend's wedding. I was an usher and she wouldn't stay seated. I should have known then she was never gonna listen to me. We have been married 21 years though.

Dh and I met when I was scheduled to ride in the Phoenix Rodeo Parade on my horse and needed a way to get her there. He had just moved his horses into the same stable and had a trailer. Five months later we married. That was nearly 41 years ago.
 
I was 16 yrs old.. I rode horse a lot every day.. One day I was with a small group of kids and we rode over to one of the girl's home/farm.. her older sister came out to see the horses and Mar. suggested that I let her sister ride behind me on my horse for a short way.. I told Ann to hang on tight and she did.. she never let go and that was in 1959..
 
The short version-we were both working in the same school.
The slightly longer version-I saw him in the hallway one day, called my mother and told her I'd seen the man I was going to marry. I didn't even know his name. I just liked his smile!
The long version-My parents met while working at a school. His parents met while working at a school. My grandparents met while working at a school. I knew I'd meet my husband working at this school. When my mother was pregnant with me she worked at the same school in NY as his aunt. We didn't discover this until we'd been married a few years. I grew up in CT. He grew up in NY. But my parents both grew up and met in NY and that's where I was born. We moved to CT when I was 3. He moved to CT when he was 22. We met just before he turned 30. He'll be 50 next week.

Husband #1: When I was 21 I was invited to my best friends huge party.. Well I met her cousin.. Was together for 2 years.. Married for only 5 months.. He cheated, he was out the door..

Hubby #2: I guess I met him right after he was born. I was 3 then.. My mom knew his mom.. I guess we even lived together when we were toddlers.. Then lost contact for years.. Found him again when I was correcting his papers in high school. I was helping the teacher out.. Then in my Senior year he started to hang out with the group of kids I hung out with.. He had a girlfriend then. Was friends for years.. And years.. Off and on.. He even hung out with my group of friends when I was married to Husband #1.. After I divorced first one, he and his girlfriend was still my friends.. Then one day he asked me out, and dumped his GF.. I said No.. He kept asking me out, for a whole year. Then I finally said yes... Well we have been together since Feb. 2001! And we have 2 kids..
 
I love these stories!

Mine's a little long.

I've known my DH since he was little - he played little league ball with my little brother (he's 5 years younger than me). I never paid any attention to him, obviously because he was so much younger (however he claims he always thought I was pretty and he knew my truck when he heard it coming). I moved back home for my first job after college and we happened to run into each other at a mutual friend's home on St. Patrick's Day 2006. I was 23 and he was 18. We both admit we felt a connection after talking a bunch and discovering how much we had in common, but were concerned about the age difference. He was still in High School, so that was a little weird for me and he figured I'd never give him a chance. For the next couple of months nothing really happened. Then, May 27, 2006 (the day after he graduated HS), we were both working at Fire Dept's tractor pull. He started flirting with me. It went something like this:
I said some smart comment to him.
Mike (from his tractor seat): "Don't make me come down there and kick your butt!"
Me: "You love me, you wouldn't do that!"
Mike: "Yeah, but you don't love me!"
Me: "Hey, I give you hugs!"
Mike: "Yeah, but I never got a kiss!"
Me: "Well, you never asked for one!"
Mike: "Ok, I want one - tonight!"
We ended up talking most of the night after the tractor pull was over, but he didn't get his kiss. He did ask me out and our first date was the next night - another tractor pull!

He asked me to marry him on February 17th, 2007, we were married June 28, 2008 (2 years and 1 month after our first date).
 
Met my DH when I was only 6 yrs old, he was 11. His sister and I were bestfriends and he was always close by. We finally married in 1995
