Re: How did you meet

Nothing romantic. We'd seen each other around briefly. I thought she had a nice shape. We ended up at the same 1970's house party. We danced. Not only a lovely shape but a lovely mover too. It went on from there.

We have been together for 43 years as second-timers, so it doesn't appear to have been a flash in the pan as predicted by some back then.

She's been in a wheelchair for many years now but we're still together. It looks like there was more to it than the lovely shape and moving.

Re: How did you meet

At a bit of a do in London. It was a charity thing in aid of the Great Ormond St hospital. She was there with her parents and spilled her drink all over me. Accidentally - I think!

Re: How did you meet

Hi

I met the mother of children when I applied for a Mortgage.

She turned me down.

We were married for 3 weeks short of 25 years when I got dumped.

Happy Anniversary Queenie!

Our meeting wasn’t very exciting, we both worked for the same Company.

Been married 47 years and still going strong...

I met Val at a singles party in 1987. We've been together since 1988 and married in 1989.

Re: How did you meet

I played the field with my mate Fred for several years. I met Fred at college and the first time I went back to his home I 'met' his young schoolgirl sister of 11 I think. Five yrs later I was playing lead guitar with Fred at a shared 16th b'day bash and I could not believe Fred's sister was the same girl WOW .. dances and kisses later that evening and my heart was captured. As a consequence I stopped playing the field and about a year after that we became engaged and by the time she was 19 were married and I had a mortgage at 24 on our 1st 2 up 2 down semi. That was over 53yrs ago and I have not regretted a single day we have been together.
That shared 16th b'day bash for my darling and 5 of her friends was the start of the rest of my life :thumbup:
