My DH came to my house with a friend of mine who at the time was sweet on my sister. Hubby had dated a girl i graduated with so i knew who he was that was about all. He told me after a week of coming to my house he was hooked. He ask my mother if i could go out with him the next week. Mom told me that was the man i would marry some day. We married 1 1/2 years later after he ask her first. Last December was 27 years, he put on his facebook page that 27 years ago he married his best friend and still loved her. Was awesome. Did not expect that at all.

How about the Greyhound bus? My sailor hubby was on his way from New York to his ship in Calif. by Greyhound. I got on in Ohio back in the day before everybody flew. My first time away from home. Another high sch. friend was with me. Only empty seat was with this little guy dressed in black & stocking feet. So my friend sat with a guy behind & I sat with this guy in black. We traveled all the way talking & talking. We married 8 months later. We were married 50 yrs. before I lost him 2 yrs. ago. His dad thought that was the most romantic story he'd ever heard. I always say I married the stranger my daddy told me not to talk to. Daddy loved him.

we met at a friends party. Actually, I was dating the friend, Cliff, and he kept flirting with another girl at his party, so I decided to show him how it felt. I started flirting with my DH and he took me home that night. He was kind of a nerd, but handsome and smart and boy he could kiss. We dated all through highschool until he left for college--we broke up and I started dating & married the boy next door. After he passed away from heart problems,my brother ran into my DH who did not know what had happened. DH had moved back home, just did not like living away at college. Anyway, my brother told me to call him, and when we went shopping one night, he would not let me back into the car until I promised to do so. Well, called DH the next night, talked for hours & agreed to meet 2 days later at the local bowling alley. It was like we were never apart and he asked me to marry him the next day. 36 years later, I love him more now than ever. I am so lucky

I was working as a vet tech, he came in with a friend to visit. I had 2 tickets for a condert that my old boyfriend bought for me for my birthday, we split up and he didn't want them back. So my husband took me. (ELO in the Pontiac Siverdome, is that place even there anymore?)

Mine's similar - a friend told me that she had met the man I was going to marry. She set us up to meet - and she was right! :D
