Just thought it would be funny to see if anyone had any funny stories. Love can come in strange ways

My fiancee and I met on www.match.com. I paid $29 to meet the gal, and its been the best investment I've ever made. I think the first thing I said to her involved the awesome spaghetti I had just made. :D

I coached T-Ball and my "sig other" coached B-Ball.

I had his son on my team and he had mine on his team.

My very first words to him were: "would you mind umping"? (He said that REALLY got his attention....he thought I said, "would you mind 'humping'") :eek:

A year later we were married. Everyone wanted us to get married at the baseball field, on the pitchers mound.

I wanted to do it. I thought it would be cool to say...."I now pronounce you man and wife.....PLAY BALL"! He wouldn't go for it though!!

We got married on a Friday afternoon and went to "El Chicos" right after.....we didn't really have a honymoon, we had to rush back up to the baseball field at 5:00....all 5 kids had a game at the same time.

When we got there, the dugout was all decorated with crepe paper and tin cans....it was pretty cool.:D

That's ok. I don't either. I just thought it was a good punch-line.

No significant other... but the first thing I will say to the next one is "Get off my ass, woman"

I worked at a health club and she and her ex boyfriend were arguing and I told them to shut up because other members were tired of hearing them fight. She later told me he was following her around and I found out he wasnt a member so I tossed him out! I gave her my number and told her to call me if he ever bothered her again! Been togethter ever since!

Me and my buddies always showed up a little early to penny pitcher night at one of the local watering holes in San Angelo - it was the only way to get a table. Saw my future bride to be with her sister and offered them a seat. That's been 13 years ago and I've been married for 11. Who says good things can't happen at the bar? Hell, if you get there early even better things can happen.

My wife and I met in our theatre troupe at Junior College..I was the older guy who had come back to college, she was the new college student..She walks into the first meeting of the group, and the moment I saw her, I was in love, just had that unknown thing that pulled me in....So I walk over to her, and ask hey you have a BF, she says yes...I said well then it will take longer to get you but I will..She said, whatever and walked off...We were best friends for a year, then dated a year, will be married 4 years in August.
And this is my lovely

The reason I use the "." is because on the old board if you wanted several spaces in between sentences you have to use "list" mode or periods. I started using periods because it was alot faster and I don't even think about it now...:)

I was set up on a blind date by my mom's co-worker with the co-worker's brother-in-law. Since I thought her husband was pretty hot, I agreed. This brother-in-law made her husband look like dog food. We had our first blind date on St. Patrick's Day, got engaged on Mother's Day, and got married that December 10.5 years ago.

I was actually my wife's boss at her first job. First thing I ever said to her was, "if I say 'Hey You' I'm talking to you because I'm not so good with names." The only reason I know this is because she reminds me several times a year. Yep, you can tell it true love at first sight for me. lol I must admit though I married WAY over my head just like the rest of these guys on here. Funny how us guys feel that way and you gals all feel you married way below where you could have. We must be conditioned to feel this way by you devil women!

Honestly, I feel right the opposite. Mine is too good for me. He spoils me rotten and does almost anything I want him to for me. I can honestly say that if the shoe were on the other foot, I don't know if I would be at accomodating.

Not that I am terrible or anything, he is just an all around nicer person than me!:D

I met my wife to be at a Pike all campus party at SWT, it was at the fair grounds (or where the Chilipiad is held) and George Strait and the Ace in the Hole Band was playing. My first thought was that she was too short for me, and I think the first thing I said to her, after hello, was "May I set my beer on your head" .

Thank goodness we got past that. We danced our first dance together to "Amarillo By Morning" (back when GS was still playing frat parties and you could still dance at a GS show). I guess we actually started dating a couple of weeks after that. And the rest is history.:D That was 22 years ago:doh:

I'm jumping in late here, but I met Amanda on a bet. If you're under 18, don't read any further. I'm a bad, bad man.

It was my last week living down in Corpus and one of my best friends (Robert) was having a coming home party (the Marines) at his parents' pimp, Meditterranean-style house on a bluff in Portland overlooking Corpus Christi Bay. Can't miss out on something like that, especially since his stepdad was BBQing.

Earlier that day, one of my other best friends (Melton) had graduated from TAMU-CC and his fraternity brothers were throwing him a party in Corpus.

My best friend Dereck and I were friends with Robert and Melton and decided to just go party-hopping that night so we wouldn't miss anything. We went from Melton's graduation to Robert's party to Melton's party. Try to keep up. ;)

The night before, I had gotten in some trouble at a Cabana Bar in Port Aransas for making out with the bartender, so we decided to run with that theme the rest of the weekend. Dereck and I made a bet that I couldn't make out with three girls that night.

Stipulations:
1. They had to be picked by him.
2. He couldn't pick out a one-eyed beauty named Helga with fewer than four teeth and more testosterone than me just so I'd suffer.
3. Must be completed between our first beer and the time we passed out that night.

We got to Robert's party around 8 that night. Amanda was the first bogey.

As far as the first thing I said to her, I have no idea. Only thing I remember from that night was:

Me: "Let's run up to Whataburger and grab a BOB."
Amanda: "What's a BOB?"
Me: "You don't know what a BOB is? Get in the truck."

Consequences of the bet have not yet been disclosed to anyone. Everyone will find out exactly what Dereck got himself into on my wedding night sometime in the distant future. :D

Oh, and three years later I made out like a bandit in more ways than just humiliating my best friend.
