| Where did you meet your last boyfriend/girlfriend? Posted: 12/28/2007 4:29:58 PM | Friend of a friend. Or rather, acquaintance of an acquaintance.
I met him the first time on the day I moved to this city for a new job. I was staying with a high-school girlfriend in her university apartment for a few weeks until I got settled, and one of her roommates was at a party a couple of floors up. She came down with a little entourage of guys, and one of them was on crutches and in an ankle to hip cast from a bad car accident. I was dozing off on the couch (I had travelled half-way across the country by train, and was beat), and he sat beside me and we chatted quietly for a couple of hours while everyone one else partied.
Over the next couple of months, we bumped into each other a few times here and there and one night met in a pub. We ended up back at my place for a "one-night stand." We were together from that day until he died, 25 years later. Strange little world. I was the last person anyone who knew me would have thought would end up partnering up so early (we were both 20) and for so long. I'm probably the least "romantic" person I know - even as a little kid I thought weddings were lame, and my teenage fantasies were of an exciting career with a revolving stable of lovers, not Prince Charming - but there I was, accidentally and happily coupled up. Strange little world.
I haven't had any other real boyfriends since then, but I've dated a few men who I met online, another who I met at a coffeeshop, and another at a university function. | |

I met my ex at work, I was her boss. It lasted 6.5 years...... wouldn't have changed it for the world. And that includes the outcome :-) | |

| Where did you meet your last boyfriend/girlfriend? Posted: 12/28/2007 5:46:00 PM | Well, I really haven't had anyone that I could honestly consider a b/f since my ex husband....we met at work.
Over the past 8 years since I have been single I have met and "dated" men from online and from friends and family "set -ups."....Neither of which have really worked out. | |

well... my last girlfreind followed me home from the bar. and she was realy hard to shake.
I met my last girlfriend in college, in one of those personal development courses. We seemed to really hit it off well but she had a lot of sexual hangups (from past abuse) that she could not get over and started to attack me for wanting to be sexual with her. There is still a lot of anger there and a lot of hurt. I don't even want sex most of the time now. I don't see the point of it most of the time. All I want is someone to share the rest of my life with. I can't even type this without crying.
Last I heard she was going to hike the Appalachian Trail. Hope she gets mauled by a bear. I'm not bitter...
Anyway, keep up the great posts! Paul | |

| Where did you meet your last boyfriend/girlfriend? Posted: 12/29/2007 11:15:35 PM | That depends on where you live. When you're in a town where well over half the population works for one "company", then it does limit your choices.
My most recent that didn't last long I actually met in the Houston Airport. We were both trapped due to weather. Got along so well that I invited her out (she's in Louisiana and I'm in New Mexico). Unfortunately, the initial connection was great but the week she was out showed it wasn't meant to be.
My last LTR and I met on the internet. Contrary to what the OP said, dating sites have been around a LONG time -- it just used to be text only. In my case, we met in the dfw.singles usenet newsgroup which used to be really active. Lasted for 10 years total of which about 7 was good. | |

| Where did you meet your last boyfriend/girlfriend? Posted: 1/1/2008 6:29:32 PM | I met him at my sisters house at a swimming party. He is her husbands nephew. The one before that is kind of a strange story! After a room mate burned my house to the ground(accidentally), My daughter and I had no place to go so a friend introduced me to a friend of hers that had a one bdrm apartment and said that he was looking for a female that he could trust to stay at his apt while he was on the road,which was going to be about 20 days a month. His plan was to take that job which would allow him to see his ex-gf in the town where he would be driving to. my 11 month old daughter and I accepted his offer,split the rent and it was to be strickly platonic...... Well, As it turned out, we fell hard for each other and he never took the new job to go see that ex and we were together for 4 yrs and almost got married! | |

| Where did you meet your last boyfriend/girlfriend? Posted: 1/1/2008 9:27:10 PM | | In a bar when I was sober (and drug free) but not thinking straight. I've posted the story too many times to repeat again and again. He would have made a better friend without benefits tho. So would I. | |
