I'm just wanting to read some nice stories.

At uni. I really really fancied him and caught him looking down my top in the lift. Absolutely not romantic 🤣
When he asked me out on a date he stuttered and got nervous and bought me a red rose in the nightclub we went to.

My husband came home and found me in his sitting room, sitting in the only decent armchair. I was a friend of his flatmate. He only took three years or so to ask me out! He kept telling my friend that he'd made plenty of food when she was on the phone with me and lured me over there for dinner. We've been married over 30 years. He still cooks more than me.

I'd been on a dating site,on and off for about 3 years

He'd joined 6 months earlier (while I'd come off it)

I rejoined and saw a picture of a man with the most gorgeous dog

I messaged,we got chatting,swapped phone numbers and kept on chatting

We finally met outside tesco (we lived over 100 miles from each other)

He was walking away from me (it was heaving),turned round and everything else just melted away

A year of long distance dating and we bought a house together a year later

9 years in oct

Never been happier-but the dog wasn't even his,he belonged to dps (lovely) ex girlfriends son

I still 'blame' the dog for getting us together!

He was/is a friend of my brothers. I was a bit of a recluse due to bullying. Mum told my brother he needed to take me with him one weekend when they were going to a show. So I tagged along with a group of older blokes at a steam rally. OH recognised I was a bit bored so he spent some time talking to me about the various traction engines.
I continued to tag along on their trips including their curry trips.
Eventually OH said he'd be going to a museum for a exhibition that was on. I'd been intending to go to the same museum fir a different display. My brother suggested I go with OH. So we had a day out at the museum. That was follow by a trip to the theatre as we found we enjoyed musicals. After a couple of other days out one of the others commented on us dating, it hadn't occurred to us we were dating. We've been together nearly 40 years.
