How we met!

PostAuthor: kevinbrown » December 20, 2005, 1:58 am

I found Businessman's posting interesting about BG wives and how guys have met their wives.
It's always interested me about all those guys who "met through a friend" So here's a poll to see how most couples met, this is a chance for us all to see the truth.
I say this because most people I've asked always seem to have a similar answer, "we were introduced by friends"

In another way not listed; apparently the most common in, at least, the "western world"; however that is defined.

Through working at the same place.

Hmm, John it seems that we have more in common than I 1st thought, I was also working with my wife before we were married, and she even ended up becoming my lodger for a while, then the relationship flourished ;)

A few school friends and I (Lao/Aussies) crashed our motor bikes in front my LW's stall (sober I think). Anyway one thing lead to another and here we are.

Thats the problem with polls; does not include " I was bloody and she showed concern and mopped me up, Eye contact and we were made for each other"

Back in 1971 my friend Al ask me to come over as his wifes friend was coming over and had just broke up with her boyfriend. As a stupid jerk (by not oberving integrity) I ask had she worked in a bar. Wrong question, wrong time. Guess I could have pushed the subject.

Did not. I won!!!!!!!!!!!

I had a one year correspondence on the net, having initially met her through a matchmaking site.Then I met her and had a further 18 months courtship,when I observed her daily work routine and met her friends. So when I eventually married her, there wasn't much I didn't know about her.If this seems overly cautious, remember I had two previous Thai wives and I wanted this one to last. :lol:

Internet for us.
Had tried the introductions from friends but the girls looks and my associated desire were always getting in the way of sensible decision making.
Came back out of Thailand and met lady(s) on internet where sensible disscussion took place first. When photo came ... WOW

I think thats something thats apparent reading the various forum postings, no one seems to have a good old fashioned courtship before marrying. Being honest my two previous attempts were rushed in comparison, both less than 6 months. As my old mother used to say, "Marry in haste, repent, at leisure." :lol:

In England, especially at this time of year. We have advertising campaigns to make people think before buying a dog. The slogan is
"A dog is forever" I suggest we should change that to "A Wife is forever"
:o :o :o

I should have wrote "Who gives a tinkers damn" on this question. What would your answer be if your wife or girlfriend ask you these questions. You know if you get a burr under your saddle it will irritate and you will be thrown. Then all is lost.

Gosh, let the past alone unless you are a saint. And if you were a saint you most likely would not be reading this. :D :D

I meet my TW in a bar where I worked as a bouncer here in the states. My job was to make sure there was no problems on the dance floor and night after night watching people that cant dance. I noticed A coming in the front door right away and after a few minutes there she began to dance and first though was "wow she knows how to dance!" After the band finished there second set I made my move and got her phone number and a year and a half I'm still wearing the ring she gave me :wink:
