We met in Maths class at Secondary School… it’s been a while lol
We met back in junior high actually and remained friends throughout our high school days but never dated. Fast forward 25 years later we re-connected via Facebook, and both of us were now single. Chatted on and off via Messenger for probably 6 months before I asked her out (I’m a slow learner I guess). Seeing her on our first ever date felt like I’d just seen her the day before. She was amazing and I knew we had hit it off finally. We dated two years then I proposed, she said yes and a year later we married. We’ve been married now for almost 13 years….. ![]()
We both worked in the same department of the county council. A large group of us would socialise after work on a Friday night. We gradually got to know one another and we found out that we only lived about a mile away from each other so he started to drop me home in the evenings. It was a seven mile journey so of course we chatted. I knew I wanted him so flirted with him without it being too obvious. I used to go to our local pub with my sister and he was there with his family as it was his 21 birthday. He was in the lounge bar and I was playing pool in the spit and sawdust bit. The barmaid was a friend so I asked her to give him a drink from me and that was it, the next thing he was round the other bar with me and his family didn’t see him for the rest of the evening. Then when we were in work he asked me to go with him to a friends party the following Saturday and I said yes. No I did not fuck him straight away we took our time and it was a couple of months before that happened as I needed to be sure. That was in October 1984 we got married on 4 October 1986 so yes today is our 39th wedding anniversary.
1986 must have been a great year, I also have been married 39 years but some months earlier. Have you made plans for your 40th?
Met in school as very young teens and still together after 49 years, few bumps along the way but that’s normal.
Not made plans yet. Would have loved a holiday but family illness means it is difficult to get away for more than a long weekend. Mother in law.had a nasty fall yesterday and father in law suffering with recurrent illness so we have to be around.
I was out clubbing with my friends when one of the lads girlfriend arrived in the same club with a few friends but one of them that was more beautiful than any girl I’d ever seen in my whole life,not even on tv or in movies or anything.
Anyway I’d never really had a problem with girls before then but still instantly decided that this girl was just way to far out of my league so I wasn’t even going to bother trying.
It was a bit of an underground proper house music club and I absolutely loved house music (still do) not the techno shite but proper funky jazzy house music. So we all chatted a bit as a group for a little while but as usual the tunes got to me, and I was gone out on the dance floor on my own (even though I can’t dance to save my life) cause none of my buddies ever went out dancing.
Within 2 minutes that girl was next to me, we danced away together for the rest of the night (turns out she was a big house head too) and at the end of the night we had a bit of a smooch before leaving.
About 2/3 weeks later I was out in the pub with a few of my buddies again and his girlfriend and the girl arrived into the pub we were in. We spent the whole night chatting to eachother and the rest as they say is history.
Over 25 years and 3 kids later,she’s my wife and my best friend. I wake up next to her every morning still thinking she is the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen. She is also just the kindest,funniest,most amazing person I’ve ever known.
I’ve often thought about how lucky I actually was that first night too, as the lads wanted to go to another club, and I really really had to convince them to go to this one, not realising then that it would turn out to be the most important night of my life.
Year 10 physics, dissecting a horses eye, both of us sat outside, I was vomiting, he had a broken arm !
My wife worked at the local petrol. Whilst studying to a nurse.
We were both 18 at the time.
Was attracted to her first time I saw her but didn’t have the confidence to ask her out so basically stalked her there until she basically questioned me about why I was in there so much. So told her I really liked her 20year later were married with twins and wouldn’t changed it for world
Mrs W here ……
Mr W came to work as a self-employed specialist where I worked. On his second day there, I felt somebody looking at me, and I looked up to Mr W looking at me from about 4 desks away. Immediately I felt inside my head that he wanted to make love to me - and I wanted him to. For months I struggled because I had always maintained never to have a liaison with somebody at work (although my body ached for his). Only when his work at our place was done - about 5 or 6 months later - did I agree to meet him one evening ……. and it went on from there xx
In the street…I still can’t believe it. So random but the best thing I’ve found on the street…
We were setup by mutual friends at a housewarming party nearly 28 years ago ![]()
Blind date set up by my OH best friend who I happened to be their best man at her wedding to my best friend been together 37yr now
Mrs W here ……
Meeting Pen was a bit of a set-up really….. Pen had seen me during a visit to see her brother (who at that time I thought was her hubby) at our offices and apparently told him she wanted to meet me. So her brother arranged a Friday evening drink for all Staff. When I was there she came and started chatting then when we left she and her brother walked me to the ticket barrier, he kissed the back of my hand, and I was expecting a peck from her, but I got a tongue inside my mouth. Then they left. The next Monday he arranged for her to phone me and she asked whether I had enjoyed the whole of Friday evening to which I answered yes and then she invited Mr W and I out for dinner the following Saturday. Our relationship grew from there xx
I remember you going through things when you both met. Had you made it obvious that you were bi (had you had relationship with lady before)? Was Mr W around a lot more then. I think its lovely the 3 of you have such a great relationship and everyone is so happy. @Wurger
Met OH in a pub but I was going away with work for 6 weeks the next day. So I wrote to her. (Anyone remember letters??) Stayed in touch the rest i history!
My FB met online Been seeing each other 18 years
I have a lady I see occasionally whom is the widow of a good friend
Mrs W here ……
Thank you @steve19 …. at the time I first met Pen I had no idea that I was “bi”, in fact I am still not sure I am “bi”. Oh throughout my life I had looked at other women and thought good grief, she is sexy ….. or horny … or beautiful but it has never gone further than that. When Pen kissed me that first time it took me by surprise but I did enjoy it and I knew I wanted more. The first time we kissed and I was ready for it, a week later, I nearly came on the spot, I was exceedingly wet and panting …. and I just knew I wanted to make love with her, but the men were downstairs and we had to get back to them (I was unaware back then that she and he weren’t partners). When I met Pen, Mr W was already working abroad and had been a few months but he came home frequently so it wasn’t that he wasn’t there and I was just horny ….. I have my toys to solve that problem, with no strings attached, physically or metaphorically …… we do work at our relationships @steve19 and when Mr W is at home it does take a bit of sorting out at times, although like many things in life, quite often things sort themselves out …… lets hope that continues when Mr W returns permanently, which, best guess is currently in Summer this year Darlin’ xxxx
It sounds like you have the best of both worlds. Long may it continue. @Wurger
Mrs W here ……..
Well, we try at it and try to make it compatible with everybody @steve19 while all 3 of us try to hold down our jobs at the same time ….. perhaps we should write a book, who knows - to borrow a well-known phrase - and this time next year we will be millionaires ![]()
How did you and Mrs Steve meet please @steve19 ?
Sorry, must go, Mr W has to get ready for his travels tomorrow
love xxxx
Samantha here.
Im not paticularly proud of this story. I met ben on tinder. Id been single for 2 years after an abusive 14 year relationship.
I swore I didnt want another relationship so I was just meeting strangers for sex and I was getting plenty. Ben was ment to be just another shag or fwb and lived close by. I was very honest with him as I was with all of them. I met him one morning and we went to his and had sex. The sex was ok. Not great but not terrible. We chatted before and after and we got on really well. We arranged to do it again at the weekend.
The day before our next meet, he called it off. Saying he wanted something serious and was too old for fuck buddies. I opened up to him and explained why I couldn’t do serious. (Abusive ex, shattered confidence and 2 fairly young kids). A few days later he messaged out of the blue asking if I was free and I was. He said he was horny and changed his mind about a fuck buddy. I went strait over and was very horny by the time I got there. I went in and he had ordered pizza and had a film ready to go.
We talked for hours then had amazing sex all night. He was so nice to me. Kind and caring and was interested in me and my life. I was hooked! It still took me a month of great sex and him nagging me for me to believe that I could have a relationship again. I just could not get him out of my head. I had become such a mess with little self esteem and no confidence. Sex was the only thing I felt good at. Ben changed my life and 4 years later we all live together, happily ever after haha. ![]()
