People speak of their partners, husbands, boyfriends,etc with such fondness, that I was wondering how you all met.
I met my boyfriend in a chatroom when I was in uni - we were countries apart and engaging in old fashioned country rivalry over sports!!!

This is kind of a long story....but here it goes.....
I was 26 and kind of just quit trying so hard to find that "special someone". My mom went to the beautician on a weekly basis and this beautician had also cut my hair when I was a child. One Friday, after here hair appointmen, my mom called me and said that the beautician had asked her if I was seeing anyone and if not would it be ok for her to give my number to this other lady who she cut hair on a regular basis. She thought this other lady's son and I were a perfect match. So every week for about a month and a half, my mom would ask me if it was OK for the beautician to give this guys mom my number. Finally I said yes just to get them off my back never thinking the guy would call. Well about a month later I had a terrible cold and guess who called. Yup, it was him. We couldn't go out because of my cold but we talked on the phone for nearly 2 hours or more every time he called. He even asked if he could bring me some soup or anything. We were finally able to meet face to face on November 12, 1994 and have been together ever since. We moved in together just a couple months after we met and were married in 1998. We were waiting for the Fourth of July to fall on a Saturday so we could get married on the Fourth. In our conversations leading to our first date we discovered that I had grown up in a house across the alley from a property that his family owned and rented out! So I had probably seen him and his family at one time or another. In my old family photos in our back yard you can see their property and in his old family photos in the background you can see my childhood home.
There is a 13 year age difference between us but that doesn't matter.

We were introduced by a mutual friend. I thought he was nice and cute, but didn't put much stock in the whole thing. He pursued me a while before I realized he was serious! We've been together ever since, that was 1990, I was a senior in high school and he was a sophomore in college.

Take care,
