My last girlfriend I met at a party. It was a party down at the shore, we fooled around, I didn't think I'd ever see her again(not that I didn't want to), but then it turned out she only lived 20 minutes from me.

My most serious girlfriend is the weirdest story. She accidentally text messaged my cell phone(put wrong number in), I was bored out of my mind(was doin somethin for school) so I made small talk...then a few days later she showed up at Circuit City where I worked. Turns out she was hot...haha.

Text Message Flirt Fined

ROME (Reuters) - Italians love their mobile phones and often carry out love affairs over them -- but they must beware, flirting with text messages can carry a fine.



A judge in the northern Italian town of Padua on Monday found a man who sent an unsolicited compliment by SMS guilty of harassment and fined him 300 euros ($391), Italian news agency Ansa reported.

"Since you appeared before my eyes I can't do anything but think of you," the man had written to a clerk while on lunch break, Ansa said. She took the offending SMS to the police.
 
We had two classes together. I had noticed her sitting up front. I ofcourse used to show fashionably late with my motorcycle jacket and helmet and sit in the back. I eventually asked her to quesadilla's at teh school cafeteria. So i must say it started over quesadilla's. I am not sure how we got talking or other things, but i am sure she will remember. I

Anycase the months after the quesadilla we had become good friends and then i asked her out. A few days after our date, things changed and we became a couple.
 
I met my fiance through ATOT, albeit indirectly.

I made a bet with an ATOT-er (schizoid), lost the bet, went to his house party to pay off my debt, and fell head-over-heels for my fiance, who was in attendance at the party and a friend/fellow student of schizoid.

🙂:heart:
 
We had a class together and we always sat next to each other. One day I asked for some missed notes (not that I really cared about the notes) and she said to meet her at the library. We became great friends from there... this was over 8 years ago. I married her a couple months ago.

BTW, that doesn't fit in any of your poll choices... class.
 
she called into my radio show and we just hit it off on the phone... chatted during shows for about 3 weeks then we set a date for Halloween. Married her 3yrs later. That was 7 yrs ago... wow.
 
We met in college when we lived on the same wing. I don't know which of your categories that would fall under. Social scene?
 
I saw him at an arcade and asked him for his name ... when I was 15. Dated for a bit, broke up, and I'm 20 now ... but we're together again ... 1 year and a few months ... and still going ...
 
We both worked at the same place....different departments...heck different buildings 6 miles apart. I was working desktop support at the time.....worked on her PC one day....saw her a few days later in the hall and said hello.....a few days later her pc had a "problem" and while I was there working on it she asked me out.

Well, social scene was suppose to be a catch all of sorts.
 
We both went to a St. Valentine's party for alumnis of 'study abroad' program. I was an alumni, but she wasn't - her friend invited her to come over for the heck of it. The minute I saw her, I knew I had to talk to her. So, being witty as I am, I approched her saying: ' hey, I remember you - we had orientation at ... '. And she replied: ' I never took part in that program. Who are you?'. Crash and burn. 🙂

But I was persistent, and by the end of the party I had her phone number and walked her over to her apt. We now are happily married for 4 years and have a baby due in March 🙂
