Re: How did you meet your other half?

Well I was working shifts and he was working opposite shifts and we lived 50 miles apart neither liked discos etc so the liklihood we would meet was remote.

Friends bet me I wouldn't join a computer dating company called dateline, and his friends bet him the same.

We each got 6 matches to our search and were top of the list for each of us so several long phone calls later we met, 2 weeks later he proposed and 4 weeks after that we were married ! For a joke bet we both got a bit of a bargain and just wished we had done it before but then of course we might not have met each other ....

Both my halves arrived at exactly the same time when I was born and have been inseparable ever since.

Re: How did you meet your other half?

That is a lovely meeting and what a memory to hold close, Meg.
I met my husband at a dance. I was there with a group of friends. It was his sense of humour that attracted me to him.
He came over and said "My mate over there wants to take you out on a date, but I think you deserve better than him, so come out with me instead"
He isn't big on romantic gestures but then he is a northern lad But every single day he says "I love my little wife". And I love my big soft husband.

Re: How did you meet your other half?

Short and Sweet ...

* at a valentine's day parti
* a kiss
* me saying ... I think I am in love with you

On May 17, 1977 he asked me to marry him and put the engagement ring on my finger & I said YES & then ... on April 1st 1978 we became husband & wife & we have been together for 35 years this April so if you were to ask me if we are happy I can tell you in 1 word ....




YES
