    I found him in a bar. Quite funny because neither of us drink. South Forty in Haysville Kansas had line dance lessons. We started talking one night and when he left I followed him out as he was getting on his motorcycle. Score! Our first date was one week later and he hasn't been able to shake me since. This is my second, and final, marriage so we have had 8 blessed years together.

    His SIL was my housemate. She asked me to be maid-of-honor and he was best man in their wedding. The four of us would hang out together when I spent the weekends with her. They were married April 29, 1987. My husband proposed to me on May 8. We were married that fall on November 7, 1987. Now we are planning 2 weddings in the coming 2 years.

    I met my husband at a bar. I was waiting with his friend for him to arrive for a visit. I figured when he arrived, I'd say hello and leave but he bought drinks before he came to the table, so.... We were introduced and my husband insulted me. Of course I instulted him right back. We've been together 20 years in October.
