How did you meet your OH

[Ferb]

Just wondered really, I haven't met anyone yet, and having 2 young ones I don't think it is really going to happen for me. I do miss having cuddles on the sofa, slobbing out and just being comfy with someone.

I met my oh in benidorm i was on a girls holiday and he was with his mates i asked if he had a girlfriend the rest is history. 9 years later we are still together.

I met my OH at work :) We had worked together for 2 years (diff depts, same company) and knew each other but weren't friendly as such. I dragged myself out of my abusive relationship six months previously and was regaining myself. He had actually looked after me on one night out when I had turned up in a mess after a row with my then P (nothing happened, just genuine concern/comfort/cocktails ). Eventually we got to talking and got together. That was 7 years ago. We have a lovely 4 year old DS now and have been married for 3 years (You do the math, yes we were "naughty" )

University.. but a lot of my friends have met their partners through mutual friends or online dating.

Dancing to the Grease Megamix in the student's union

In a bar...

Online

We met out clubbing.

Most of my friends have either met their partners through mutual friends, on a night out or at work.

At work

At university, he was on my housemate's boyfriend's course. TBH nearly couple I know got together either through friends of friends or work.

Scouting. When we were volunteers as a Scout campsite, many moons ago.

At work

At church.

At a wine tasting evening. He worked with my Mum and she didn't want to go to this work event on her own, so I was her date! That was nearly eight years ago. I nearly cried off as well, which goes to show you should never turn down an invitation (or free wine).

scrooge - me too, - are you still in Scouting?

In London, in a chinese restaurant. Through friends.

Met at 18 during a classical physics lecture at university, engaged at 29, married at 31, DS at 32.

You'll meet someone I'm sure, when you least expect it. I think people often meet at work.

At work...

I was kicking everyone's arse playing pool in my local. DH tried to knock me off the table (not literally because that would of been rather violent and not at all nice) and I gave him my last cigarette.

That is how I tell it... DH reckons he knew me earlier than that because I briefly went out with his best mate...

Online though not on a dating site (though i have had some enjoyable dates from those)

Our first date was just before Xmas 2009.

My children are older, but he was and always has been unphased by the fact I have 4 of them and they love him , as he does them, so you may well find someone in time. Funnily enough i met my bf at a time when I was v happy being single and ok with the idea of staying that way long term.

At a rave 6yrs on and we have are 1st baby on the way! still remember the 1st time I saw him off his face and dancing like a twat we sat and watched the sun come up together on the cliffs in cornwall, He's been my soulmate since then.

He stole my morning shift in McDonald's when he was 16 and told the manager he could be in 15 Minutes before me.

So I got in earlier than him and manager gave us the same shifts. We went our seperate ways (uni/ career) but met each other a few years later and he asked me out.

Ragwort, yy, still in Scouts, volunteer when I get chance

In the pub

My first night out at uni - I got drunk and separated from the group and the peer guide and wandered around aimlessly asking people if they were freshers. I sat next to him and his cousin who were locals and chatted to them until closing time where I promptly started to cry because "I don't know where I live!" He walked me home, missed the last train and slept on my floor. Six years later and we are getting married soon and haven't been apart for more than about 20 days, non consecutively.

at school - 35 years ago!
