How did you meet your wife/husband?

[88 Bronco]

This is going to be a bit long.

I car pooled with a friend in school who brought along another guy. The other guy asked us to pick up his girl friend. The first time I saw her I thought that she was cute and there was something more, I just couldn't explain it. I figured, oh well, she has a boyfriend. Plus she also seemed like a very nice girl, and a little out of my league. A few months of car pooling the third guy and his girl friend stop riding with us.

A month or so after the stopped car pooling with us, I saw her at the Piggly Wiggly I worked at. I took her and my future mother-in-law's grocerys to their car. I asked her if she was still dating that one guy and she said they broke up. She kept coming up to the store to buy stuff and my dumb ass thought nothing of it at the time.

To add to my stupidity, right before christmas break she gave me a christmas card with her phone number in it and a message that said call me if you get bored. Again, I thought nothing of it because we seemed like polar opposites. It took a mutual friend to call me and tell me that she had a huge crush on me.

I finally asked her out on a date and we hit it off. I actually wanted to get to know her instead of convincing her that the date would be better if we were naked. After the date, I called her. Pathetic I know, but we talked until 5 in the morning. Three days later we became a couple and have been together since, and that was January 1995

wow. are all guys this dense?

She says it drove her up a wall. I honestly thought she would never be interested in someone like me especially considering I acted like I was hanging out with my friends when we met. There was none of that toning it down to impress her shtick. She only wanted to date me because she thought I would be fun to hang out with. Neither of us realized we had met our soul mate that morning, and we have been married 15 years as of last week. What's really sad is that I still can tell you exactly what she was wearing when we met.

[Panthro]

yes. but only when it comes to ourselves.

haha that's not sad, that's extremely adorable, and that's why I love this thread.

Sucks though b/c on the other end I bet she thought the card was just about as strong as she could come at you without being overbearing, and you didn't even realize it until someone smacked you on the head with the fact that she liked you.....

this makes me rethink some things.

Yeah, pretty much... I know I've been dumb like that many times... sometimes you just get something in your head and don't think of things any other way.

[Kettle]

i had a few girls do that when I worked at Kmart in high school. i didn't put it together then.

I met my ex wife as she was walking out of the gates of Hell.

Yep. Believe you me I can tell if a girl is showing interest in one of my friends. I slap 'em upside the head and inform them of the Situation. When it came to me I was a complete moron.
