How did you meet your partner/wife/husband

Just finnished dinner and was talking with the kids about how the wife and i met.
Long story short i did a fanzine,she wrote in and love blossomed.
So how did you get stuck with yours.
 
I was in the boys block at my halls of residence at Uni, and she was in the adjoining girls block. Me and the lads decided to see how many girls we could get through in the girls block, and I decided to stop at number 3. 5 years later she's my fiancé, and what started by being some first year drunken foolishness turned out to be the best thing that's ever happened to me

Oh Tony,
Remember your "early days" with the other half well.

Met my husband whilst I was still at school many,many,many years ago.
He was such a gentleman as I had got so drunk at a party and he kindly took me home - although I have to add it was 6 oclock in the morning when I eventually got home. He came round the next morning to check on me and the rest is just history

That can't be the same Tony that I know Jackie!?!!! ;)

Mine was originally through work, where I did her first mornings training. We were both with other partners then & then met up again by chance about 15 years later at her works party & where I was working behind the bar!

Another work-related one here too...Mrs S was an advocate for an elderly woman who required a bit of help from your friendly neighbourhood Social Worker. Mrs S was also doing a reflexology course at the time and needed 'case studies' to practise on. This case and his smelly feet just wouldn't go away...
 
Shared an anecdote about nob cheese, she stared at me like I'm a scumbag, I called her a ****. A modern day lothario me.
 
Met the missus through work and the old battle axe that I have have banging for years on end through CS Cockles. She used to feed and clothe him a few years ago now and she fell into my arms after her son Andrew Robin Young (opps) got into a bit of trouble with the police for stealing the old lady next doors underwear from the line.

She getting on now a bit but still knows exactly what she is doing and is game for anything I ask. Bless.
 
Needed a cheap place to stay for LDV first time around in Cardiff.... called my mate Mike from school and stayed with him. Me and his housemate Naomi got on very well, and the rest is kind of history! (Although we weren't a couple straight from the off, had to wait a bit as two students one in Cardiff and one in Cambridge is hard to work!)
 
Leos: he was a friend of one of the little group of five of us that were sons and daughters of Castle Point Lions members, and whose groups of friends set up their Leo Club.
 
I needed a lift home 17 years ago from Dukes in Chelmsford. So i chatted up the bird with the car keys!



Thought it was strange though when she drove past my house and dropped off her other mates first;)
I can remember picking her up on our first date in my old man's hand-painted (black) Mini, with no heater i was sure to get close with her i thought;)
