Seeing as it's Valentine's Day, I think it would be nice to talk about our significant other's and ours stories. You know, how did you meet? When did you meet? How long have you been together? When did you get married, engaged, whatever?

I myself am in a wonderful relationship. My boy is a person I have been crushing on since I was 11. He was 17, and he, of course, didn't share any of the feelings I had. He taught me a lot about everything, though. He taught me how to roleplay and about how to make friends, and video games and the internet and everything. It was one of those weird feelings you just have when you're little: the person is like your older brother, but at the same time, you crush on them. You tell all the little girls at school about him. That is how it was when I first met my boy.

As I grew older, we slowly became better and better friends. He had a girlfriend, but I still crushed on him. Ah, how sad. When he was twenty or so, he asked her to marry him, and it made me so sad. It did, but I congratulated him anyway. He didn't like me at all then, and I knew it. So I just grinned and bore it (I never thought I'd have him then anyway).

But she hurt him later, and a lot. This also tore me up. It made me so sad to see him hurt like he was. But he slowly got better, and he even started noticing me a bit more. He'd call me pretty, and say that he thought I should have been older, etc. I was being slow, of course, and I didn't get it, but I did know that I wished even more that I could be with him.

One day, he did finally ask me if I liked him, and I blushed and said "maybe". He said "It's okay, I like you, too". I was still really young (and am, I suppose), but I considered him my boyfriend. We didn't do much, our friendship continued on, but with much more holding and a few kisses.

...We'll be celebrating our second anniversary in eleven days. I am so glad it worked out between us, and every day with him is absolutely magical.

So, let's hear your story!

So are you married now then?

I'm still a teenager =3
Well, this is a strange story.
I was at a dance and I saw an attractive boy with some of his friends. He had awesome dancing skills, so I talked to him. Later that night, my friend told him I wanted to SLOW dance with him. I started freaking out and ran into the bathroom. My friends kept talking to him and giving me messages from him as I sat on the sink in the bathroom. Finally, when they told me the slow song was over, I walked outside to find him waiting there for me and the slow song just started! We danced, I got to know him, and my friends told me they found out he liked me, so he asked me out later and it's our six month tomorrow. -blushes-

I met my fiance online. I know, I be a loser, but hear me out.
Alright so I'm browsing around this website and I post a comment on this random guys page about how his background looks cool and then he responds back. We start talking to AIM and next thing I know we're talking all night.
Well, 2 days later I had to go home (I was at my sister's condo at the time) and I didn't have internet at that point, so he asked me for my phone number.
He ended up calling me and we started talking on the phone for about 3 months or so. We started to really like each other and figured that we didn't want to date anyone else so we decided to remain exclusive to each other or as normal people would put it, "date"
About 5 months later, he came up here to see me and we really liked each other.
So, we've been together for about a year and...5 or 6 months
we got engaged a few months ago... but we don't plan on getting married for another 4 years or so :)

I met my fiance when we were in middle school. We met at our church's youth group...and I instantly despised him. I thought he was weird and creepy. We met again in high school and I became very interested in him when I saw how truly gentleman-like he was...we started dating when I was a sophomore and he was a junior...and have been together ever since. We have been dating for five years and engaged for one and a half years...and I can hardly wait to get married this December!!!
