Met my OH almost 6 years ago at a BBQ he invited my then boyfriend to :rolleyes:
I tagged along to be introduced to this large group of grungy metal heads (I was into that at the time, because of course, that's what my boyfriend liked
)
After six years of simply chatting and meeting for coffee to talk about our love lives - him telling me I should give all my current asses of boyfriends another chance because it would be a shame to lose me, and me telling him, quite blatently, to dump every single one of his current girlfriends because he deserves better (better being me), I invited him up to mine to meet my foster cat and her newborn kittens, deviously tricked him into having a drink so he couldn't drive home, and then casually reminded him I live in a one-bedroom flat. .. :rolleyes:
Now, we're engaged, with a wedding planned for September 2014

Yep, that's why male peacocks have amazing feathers and peahens are boring little things. In the bird world it's the men that look pretty and show off to get a girl, but what with humans not having feathers (I should hope not anyway) it's just down to showing off, looking good, impressing someone

Met my boyfriend the summer before our first year in college. Being friendly acquaintances, having lots of mutual friends, and going to the same college that September, we decided to live together, along with one of our mutual friends. We began sitting up talking every night, long after our other roommates had gone to bed, and he soon became one of my best friends. Not long later I started noticing serious chemistry between us, and after about 2 months of "moments" between us, I plucked up the courage (after several vodkas) to tell him. Few days later we sat up all night talking about whether or not we should do anything about it, and finally decided to just go for it! We had our first kiss the next day, and over 2 years on I still get butterflies 0

I worked in the local spar and he used to come in and talk to me. One day he slipped me his number. We went out for about 3 months before he broke up with me. Had zero contact until 2 years later when he found me on facebook and messaged me to apologise. He ended up winning me back and it was out 3 year anniversary last week 0

Pof. Signed up to see what all the fuss was about, got talking to this guy within the first two days of being on there, met for coffee the following week and apart from a minor blip at the start, its been loved up ever since. Told him in my sleep about a month or so in that I loved him, according to him, so he said it about a month after that... five months in now He is wonderful! 0

A Boards Beers (so technically not *on* Boards
), around this time last year actually
He had only heard about it the night before, and I'm pretty shy so I almost didn't go! Thank goodness I did Chatted for most of the night, then went on our first date the next day - to see The Muppets! 0 -
In a bar, through a friend of a friend! Fairly standard really! I ended up really sick (gross chesty cough, yuck!) after we first met so it was over two weeks before we got a proper date. It all worked out though, coming up on two years 0

Through friends, his friend from college was going out with my friend from college. He had to do a little bit of chasing (apparently I almost went in the "too hard basket"), I wasn't interested for quite a bit.
Glad I gave in in the end! Got married last summer after 6 years together and have a baby on the way. We've had a tough few months and I can definitely say I landed on my feet with him 0 -

Plenty of fish!!
I had had a brief fling with a guy, wasn't really bothered about meeting anyone but one night I went on and saw the other guy was back online so I thought why not! I started talking to my bf first, after a week or so we met up, went out for 6 weeks until he broke up with me. I stalked him for 7 months and eventually wore him down! We are together now 7 months and we couldn't be happier. He's a wonderful guy, I never thought I would meet a guy like him who wouldn't just love me but my two kids as well 0 -
In second year of secondary school, he was put into my class. We only chatted in school, never socialised outside until college. I was in complete denial about my feelings for him around second year of college because he had become such a good friend and I didn't want to ruin it. We finally got together just a couple of weeks before our third year of college (we were in different colleges). Four and half years and still going strong 0

Met him at a gig on a beach in Dubai 3 months after I emigrated to the UAE. I randomly sat down on a sand dune, pizza slice in my hand, then noticed the cute tall dark and handsome guy sitting to my right. Started speaking Irish to my South African friend to tell her I thought he was gorgeous then realised she didn't have a clue what I was saying so blurted it out in front of him!
Fell madly in love and 2 years later we're happily married and expecting our first baby next month 0 -
