How did you meet your other half?

Got a summer job in a local supermarket, saw this girl who also worked there smile over at me. Got chating, asked her out and she said yes.

 

Our first date was the night of my 18th birthday. I'm 32 now and we are getting married next September (yes, I know I kinda dragged my heels a bit and yes, she does remind me of that fact every now and then).

 

When ever I think about it too much, I end up trying to figure out where all the years in between have gone to!

I went to stay with my mate in Leeds for a couple of weeks after I split with my ex. His flatmate worked with my gf in a shoe shop who spotted me when I went to get the keys for the flat from him. Went back the next day to get the keys again and she told me we were going for a drink. That was 8 years ago.

Dude - you're dating a mermaid?

 

Or is it a Manatee? :p

 

:shock:

 

What do you do for a living?:)

 

 

I'm just finishing my Ph.D in Atmospheric Physics... something with a lot of travel... but it meant I could only afford an N/A ;)

 

Met my girlfriend whilst on a research cruise off the west coast of Africa, then almost exactly a year later during six months in Borneo we finally hooked up.

 

Off to San Francisco for a conference next month ;)

I met my wife when a mutual friend introduced us after I returned from NI. She's history now.

 

I met Lin when we worked in the same headquarters. She was the Budget Manager and I managed to wangle a quarter of a million out of her to spend on updating the IT systems. She jokingly said she'd want something in return...
