A bittersweet chance.....met him the day before my grandmother's funeral. My grandmother died on my birthday and she never got a chance to meet him. Six year later, we are still happy and so in love.

I was working at the front desk at a hotel and my how husband was a long term guest, we always flirted with each other but never acted on it, until one night i was out on the town with one of my girlfriends, and she dragged me into a bar that I hated! i told her she had two min then we were leaving (she was looking for her bf) I saw my now husband, and well we stayed there for the rest of the night!

we were all outside and my friend and him were having a snowball fight, my friend ducked and he hit me square in the face! haha, he ran over to me and hugged me, then we kissed!....the rest is history! xx (L)

I had first put online, but then I saw the other gamers were answering "other" because the purpose of their being online at that place was not for socializing - more to play the game etc.

Voted for Online.

Met on a text-based role-playing game - specifically a MUSH.

Similar for us - but we are MUD-ers. :D

Country: Vietnam

My wifes Aunt tried for 3 years to get me to talk to her and I refused and even got to the point that I told her to stop asking and I never will. She is persistent though and I am glad. She asked me to write her a letter and I told her we don't write letters anymore but gave her my email and to my surprise they had internet in Vietnam.blink.gif About a month after I gave her my email from yahoo I was online one night late and a friend request came up on my yahoo messenger from a weird sounding name. I usually just hit the ban button but I added it and we both showed up as online and we started chatting. She of course chastised me for taking so long to agree and giving her Aunt a hard time and making her wait. I was astonished at this but she goodbye right away and signed off. I found this odd but the next night she came back on and said we were going to get to know each other so start telling her all about me. I did somewhat and she signed off again. After a week this kept up and I asked about it and she said that the internet and power keeps going down in Vietnam and each time it happened she cried thinking I would not come back. This made me want to know her very much. After a couple of months her Aunt said she was going to Vietnam and I was coming with her. I did and strangely met her and fell in love even though we were allowed little one on one contact.

I watched my coworkers marriage video, and the camera panned in on my now wife. I told him I wanted get to know her but he had no clue who she was but his wife did and the rest is history. good.gif

I spent about a decade traveling all over the world and talk about pleasure... Southeast Asia and the Philippines in particular was the promised land insofar as uber-hot babes. Within the Philippines it was Mindanao that had a look and culture that for me answered the question of whether the Kingdom of heaven was at hand or whether you had to wait until you died.
