How did you meet? We met in High School. I was cruising "the strip" in our city, and so was he. (we were both with friends) And they stopped next to our car, and started talking to us through the window. So we pulled over, and my friend went off with his friend, and Justin & I were alone together. He was incredibly shy . But after awhile, he opened up and asked for my number. Then he & his friend followed his to my girlfriend's house. And Justin & I stayed up all night talking. It felt like we had known each other for years. And we kissed. I was his first kiss! I was 16 years old, and he was 18.
How long did you date before you got engaged? We were together for 5 years before he proposed. We weren't in a rush, since we met in High School.
Where did you get married? (or where do you want to get married?) We actually got married in our new house that we bought together. It has a large master bedroom, and we could fit 30 people in there comfortably. So we had our ceremony and the reception in our new house! It was very special.
How long after you were married/together did you have your 1st child? We were planning on waiting awhile, but we got pregnant 6 months after we got married. It was a pleasant surprise!
What did your sweetie do that made you fall for him/her? Early on in the relationship we knew we were in love. He was so open and honest with me, and we just had this connection that I can't put into words. He is very romantic, and he really swept me off my feet.But I love how he could be real with me, and we had the same goals & dreams. He was there for me during the hardest times in my life, and he always tells me how much he loves me.
What do you cherish the most about your relationship? I value our friendship more than anything. We are best friends. We are very close to one another, and know each other inside & out. We compliment each other. We always have alot of fun together. If we get hurt or angry, we are quick to make up and talk about things. He is a great father, and is very close to our son. He makes me feel safe, loved and supported.
And do you believe you are soul mates? Yes. I truely believe God made Justin just for me. It was a divine meeting.

How did you meet? I was in a co-ed pool tournament and the guy who was supposed to be my partner got back together with his girlfriend and she wouldn't let him play. He sent Jeff to fill in. (Thank you, Slugger!)
How long did you date before you got engaged? 18 months
Where did you get married? (or where do you want to get married?) At the church I've grown up in, my stepdad is a pastor there and performed our ceremony. It was really special.
How long after you were married/together did you have your 1st child? 6 months (whoopsie, you know how us preachers daughters are!) We found out the day before the wedding that we were having twins.
What did your sweetie do that made you fall for him/her? He made me forget to breathe.
What do you cherish the most about your relationship? That he dreams so much bigger than me, and over the years it's taught me to do that too. and even though I probably discourage him a lot (I'm the realist) he still wants me to celebrate it with him when he succeeds. I benefit so much from his big dreams but he never holds back from me just because I was skeptical.
And do you believe you are soul mates? Yes and no. We're so much the same and so different, I love him so much that I say yes we are soulmates, but we're so polar opposite I can't entirely believe we are, does that make sense?

How did you meet? We were working in the same building. He was clerking for the attorney's office down the hall from the CSB office I was working at. A coworker (who ended up as the organist at our wedding ) of his brought him down the hall, sat him down in my office (that I shared with the person who was our matron of honor ) and said "I just think two good Catholics should meet each other. "I was assured he was shy but after we talked for two hours (mostly him talking) I had to cut him off because I was late for a wedding rehersal for a wedding I was singing in the next day. I went home that night and called my mom and told her I met the man I was going to marry. Guess you could say it was love at first sight.

How did you meet? This is a funny story and some might look down on me for it. My brothers X-wife is best friends with my husband. Anyways, when I was married to my daughter Cassidy's father, (bad marriage), she kept trying to hook me up with him. I wanted to leave my husband, but didnt have anywhere to go. He also didnt want someone that had a child. That was a no go. So then a few months later, I went to to a firehouse dance with one of my other brothers and my aunt. Cassidy's dad was peaved that I went. But anyhoo. I met my husband there, which he was with a different woman. My brother x-wife's sister. He kept dancing with me and she was getting all mad about it. Well it ended up that night that he left with her. I went home. The next day, I went to my grandfathers house and my brother (with the x-wife) came and had my husband with him. He wouldnt say much to me, but later we went to my moms and he talked to me more. Well the short and long of the story is I left my husband and moved in with my mom and we just clicked. We have been inseperable since then, that is until he just got this new job and we have to be apart weeks at a time. So that is my story. I just want to clear up that I was leaving my husband anyways and moving with my mom. My current husband just helped speed the process.

How long after you were married/together did you have your 1st child? *Our daughter was born 2 months before our 1 yr wedding anniversary
What did your sweetie do that made you fall for him/her? *We've been great friends for years, which is an AWESOME way to start a relationship, I'd highly recommend it. Also, when I was having problems with my ex (the father of my 2 oldest children) he was a great friend, listener, support, everything. I used to cry on his shoulder (literally) about my ex when he was being crappy to me (which was a lot of the time) and my husband would comfort me. I never cheated on my ex but after I got engaged to my ex, my husband sat me down one day & told me he knew I was not happy, that I was doing it for the kids, and that he loved me & told me if I ever wanted to try a relationship with him, he knew he could make me so happy. I caught my ex cheating & doing drugs shortly thereafter & decided I wanted to try a relationship with John, who I had actually liked for YEARS but didnt think he liked me & I couldnt take the chance of telling him I liked him b/c I didnt want to lose him as a friend if he didnt feel the same. He was right, he has made me absolutely deliriously happy. He also treats my sons like little princes, like they are his own sons, he is wonderful with our daughter, he is smart, he is ambitious, he is HOT....I could go on & on.
What do you cherish the most about your relationship? *How much I wanted to be with him for SO LONG & the fact that he had wanted the same thing & how in love with each other we were but didnt know it. I love that we've gotten married quickly, had our daughter, have a perfect little family...I'm pregnant again. I love how happy we are, how we treat each other with love and respect, how we are each other's best friends and how we would not trade time with each other for anything in the world.
And do you believe you are soul mates? *I dont really believe in "soul mates" but I do believe we were born to be together...my husband has always said the same thing- "I always knew I would marry you. I didnt know when, but I knew I would have you and we'd be together forever."

MamaJAM replied: How long have you been with your spouse/so? We've been married 14 years -- 'together' 14.5 years.
How did you meet? One of my best friends in high school introduced us in April of our senior year. She really hoped I'd like him (since he was her boyfriend)....apparently I liked him a whole lot since we're married. Honestly - it was love at first sight for us both...though we tried to fight it (neither of us really wanted to hurt the other girl). But - true love just had to win out in the end.
How long did you date before you got engaged? We had our first date in June....but then I left to work at the beach for the summer...he did drive down to see me a few times. We considered ourselves officially a 'couple' in early August and were engaged the beginning of Sept.
Where did you get married? (or where do you want to get married?) We were married a judge's chambers in the court house in Wilmington, Deleware. We eloped -- just us, the judge and our 2 witnesses.
How long after you were married/together did you have your 1st child? 8.5 months -- DD#1 is a honeymoon baby. We found out 3 weeks after our wedding that she was on her way (though I had actually been sick starting on the drive home from our weekend-long honeymoon).
What did your sweetie do that made you fall for him/her? Just being himself -- like I said - it was love at first sight and the more I got to know him, the more I realized I couldn't live without him.
What do you cherish the most about your relationship? Our friendship. We know everything about each other - and really are the best of friends.
And do you believe you are soul mates? Definately.....we complete each other.

TANNER'S MOM replied: How long have you been with your spouse/so? Over 9 years been married 8
How did you meet? I dated his cousin.. there was nothing there..But he took me fishing one summer day..and it was at Randy's Dad's pond. Randy said everyone in the house was like..Dang Curt has a very pretty woman at the pond..They couldn't believe..so he brought me a beer..to meet me. He wanted to see what kind of woman Curt landed. But I had no feelings for Curt..and it wasn't long until Randy was the one for me!
How long did you date before you got engaged? We dated and lived together over a year.
Where did you get married? (or where do you want to get married?) We got married at the court house. I was 7 months preggo. Wearing some lovely materity clothes. We didn't even have the money to buy rings. The JP was an older woman..and we held hands and looked into each others eyes the whole time. She made him hold my stomach with the other hand, he pledge to be a husband and a father. I am tearing up thinking about it!
How long after you were married/together did you have your 1st child? Hummm a few months!
What did your sweetie do that made you fall for him/her? So many things that were just him. He wasn't trying it was just him being him. The way he walked. The way he smiled and the way he really thought he was funny! The way he was always so happy to see me. The way he could look at me across a room..and I knew he was watching me. I could feel his eyes on me, and I still can. But the moment I thought LOVE... was so funny. My Justin was little. And he loved grilled cheese. But for some reason he thought when you said Grilled..you were saying GIRL CHEESE..and he of course would only eat BOY cheese! We were eating out and Justin wanted a boy cheese! Randy was ordering for him..and he looked at me..and said Oh no.. BOY CHEESE.. I just looked up over the menu.. He said to the woman.. I will have a grilled (really quite) BOY (real loud) cheese sandwiche. She said what??? He said it again..lol I thought that man will make a fool out of himself for my son..know thats love. And we still say BOY cheese at my house!
What do you cherish the most about your relationship? I cherish every moment. I try to remember the tender moments, the sweet moments. But to be honest the hard times in life have taught more about us than anything. The moments of being so broke.. of not even having wedding rings, the moments of sick kids and no money for diapers. The moments of giving up what we want to better the whole family, shows me what kind of man he is.
And do you believe you are soul mates? I am not sure. The romantic side of me does of course. But the other side is still not so sure.

** On my 18th birthday, my parents were in really bad moods, so they wouldn't let me go to my own birthday party that my friend had for me.... I later found out that the party was held at my future DH's apartment.
** After the summer of graduation, my friend called and invited me to a friends birthday party, but I already had plans so I wouldn't be able to. So, later that night me and my friend decided to stop out there for awhlie. That is when I met my DH. He asked me to on a date with him. Later, I found out that he had also been invited to that birthday party, but originally hadn't planned on going, but decided to later that night. So, we met (after many years of missing each other), we dated, got engaged and got married
Now, here we are almost 16 years later !!!

How did you meet?
We met at a nightclub, we had seen each other there for weeks and he would always stare at me and smile at me and tell me I was a good dancer but he would never try and talk to me, so I approached him one night and we started talking. Later on that night he gave me his phone # before he left and asked me please not to take it if I wasnt going to call I called him the next day and we've been inseprable since

That we can laugh at almost anything

Yes I do. We have our rough patches but what couple doesn't? I think the way we met was definitely meant to be, we knew the same people our whole lives and grew up blocks apart but had never met, I knew his best friend for years but never knew him - we clicked so fast it was fate!

How did you meet? in a bar. His friend thought I was cute and he thought my friend was cute. We all hung out for a few weeks (me dating his best friend and him dating mine) then we all just ended the romatic stuff and started hanging out all as pals. About a year later, after a night out with everyone, we all ended up back at him and his best friends house. We were all swing dancing and he met me in the hall as I was coming out of the bathroom and said "do you like Craig?" me: "not in a romatic way no" Him: "do you like Bob?" me: "not in a romatic way no" Him: "wanna give it a go and go on a date?" me: "sure why not" The rest is history

What did your sweetie do that made you fall for him/her? First it was the fact that he had such a great group of friends and they all spoke very highly of him. He has a great sense of humor too & he always had the group laughing. The kicker was after we'd been dating for about 3 months and he made me a mix cd with some of the corniest romantic songs ever. Then he played it for me by candlelight and sang every word. I mean CHEESEY songs like "your the inspriation" by Chicago and other stuff like that. I knew then that he was either the biggest dork-o on the planet or that he really loved me. I also knew we were made for each other when I looked in his bachelor closet and all of the clothes were organized by sleeve length then color. He's the only person on earth more organized & anal than me.
What do you cherish the most about your relationship? The laughs and the fact that he's the only person who understands me and sticks by me no matter what. We are strong and we've been though alot these last 5 years but our team work during the rough times has led me to believe that we can accomplish anything together.
And do you believe you are soul mates? Yep. the flame flickers sometimes but we both have the same commitment to each over & we are a great team. Lets not even go into how great he is with the girls.
