Over the summer, Ash was one of my best friends in Shockwave. When we talked after the shows in Tampa and Melbourne, we realized that it may be something deeper than friendship. I'm now looking foreward to the end of the tour in April.:kiss:

Here is a picture of us in Tampa!:kiss: :kiss: :kiss:

I was on a Catholic student retreat (Oct 23-25, 1998) when I met my husband. At the retreat were about 100 college students from 8 colleges and universities across South Carolina. I was with the group from the College of Charleston and my husband was with the group from The Citadel. The two groups actually made the trip from Charleston to Table Rock State Park (located in Upstate South Carolina near the SC/NC state line) together on the 23rd. We actually didn't met until the next day. There was a four-hour break scheduled that afternoon. Most of us decided to going hiking during the break. Since I use to go to this park as a child and knew the trail pretty well, I led the way up the mountain. My husband was further back in the group stuck behind slower people. He eventually worked his way around the slow people and up to where I was. He decided to strike up a conversation with me because of the t-shirt (College of Charleston vs. The Citadel b-ball t-shirt) I had on. Anyway, we talked all the way the mountain and back down again. There was definitely an immediate attraction between us. Our first date was 2 weeks later at The Citadel Homecoming Hop ( the 1st of many Citadel Hops I would attend). We became engaged just 2 months after we met (Dec 23 1998). We got married 2 1/2 years later on June 23 2001. We've been married just over 1 1/2 years. :sohappy:

Yeah! Sometimes you just know that quickly that this is the person you're meant to be with the rest of your life. We did however wait 6 months to tell our families we were engaged. Funny thing is my in-laws got married 2 months after they met. They'll be celebrating their 25th anniversary in February.

Wow Chris, great story! I´m impressed! :)

I have a friend who got married by law three months after she met her husband.... and that was when their families met!

They got married by the Church exactly on their first year of dating anniversary. They have been happily married for 6 years now. :animwink:

I married Linda 3 months after we started going out (I knew her for a few months before that).

As far as I know, it's still working.:lookaroun

WOW!! :eek:

I'm amazed at how quickly some of you have gotten married. I have commitment issues, so, i'm not married. However i've been happily unmarried to the same woman for 8 years.

It works for us.

Now I just wish Maria would stop looking at me like that, or I may have trouble making it through the next year.:lol: ;)

Hang in there, DizkneePhreek. Hang in there. Those that have given the advice of finding him/her when your not even looking, hit the nail on the head. For instance...

I knew what I was looking for. A woman with dark hair, dark eyes, about 5'6" or 5'7", nice ...uh...personality, and most important of all: someone who could stand being with me for more than 30 minutes.

Came close, once. Hair was dark, eyes were, well, green, but it was livable. Nice personality. She even understood about half of my jokes! But then she went and lied to me. Not once, but twice. Bye-bye.

Then, two nice ladies who were friends started attending our church and young adult group. One I dated for about three months. Didn't think it would last, and it didn't. Her friend we tried to fix up with a friend of mine. Didn't work. We all stayed friends and did alot of stuff together. Dated some other ladies, no hope in sight.

Then, one night...it was Maundy Thursday service at our church. Our young adult group participated in the service with a "skit." After our part in the service, the friend of the lady that I dated and I decided to go see a movie (we didn't want to stay for the rest of the service). We went to see "Excalibur" (when it was first released in theatres). Great movie. Nothing like skipping a church service to see a movie containing: wizards, magic, incest, rape, adultery, graphic bloodshed, and crows pecking out the eyes of rotted bodies! I think most would agree that this is not a chick-flick. Anyway, after the movie I drove her back to her car, which she had parked at my house. We got out, talked for a moment, and then...

There she was. Standing right in front of me. Natural blonde, blue eyes, 5'3", definately not the profile I had been looking for. I kissed her. She kissed me. We celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary in March. And she can still stand to be with me for more than 30 minutes!

So, y'see, sometimes it just happens. Even when you're not looking for it, and, just as important, with someone you're not even looking for.

no2apprentice, your story about skipping church to see a movie reminded me of a personal experience of mine...my freshmen year, me, my sister, and this guy i liked from our church went to Sunday School, but skipped the service to go see Sleepy Hollow :D

my mom's story isn't nearly as romantic as some of your all's! she had dated these two guys, both of whom drank. they knew she didn't so they didn't do it around her. they ended up dumping her, saying that she was too good for them. so they hooked her up with my dad (whom they were friends with) mom said she had seen dad before at a bandshow but never really thought much about it. but they will be married 25 years this June! mom's told me dad said he prayed for 5 years for God to send him 'the one' which i thought was sweet. really, one of the few blind dates i've ever known of to work out! and it really was kind of a blind date. other than mom seeing him at a bandshow, they didn't know each other. they had gone to two different schools in the county...but even if they didn't, dad's 5/6 years older than mom. so i doubt they would've known each other if they had gone to the same school.

i've noticed it's a common theme 'you'll find love when/where you'll least expect it.' i'm not sure if you all are saying that as a general statement, or directing it to me and my situation. if it's directed at me, then i just want to say that in no way am i expecting it. i'm not even saying i want it. all i know is that i'm attracted to the guy (which is entirely usual for me...i have an incredible list of guys i'm attracted to) i know we for sure have art in common...i think he's a cool guy with a great personality, and i'd just like to get to know him better. period. if friendship comes out of it, great, if love comes out of it, great. i'd be disappointed if nothing came from it, but if that's how it's meant to be, then so be it. all i want to do is find out what he's like and find out more about him. in no way am i expecting a relationship.
