    I didn't believe in fate before I met James. It's abit of an essay I'm afraid!

    We first met when we were 18, in our first year of university. We were allocated the same block and passed eachother on the stairs (you know when it's more awkward if you don't say hello!). I thought he was gorgeous and he smelt amazing. We never became friends or hung out, but we knew eachothers names and saw eachother every now and again in passing. (Think I need to mention here that as this point I was in a long-term relationship with a guy back home).

    I didn't see him again properly however until a year later, when we were out on a bar crawl called carnage. We were in the final nightclub on the list, when me and my mates fancied a sit down. We went over to the seating area (which was empty), and I saw someones wallet on the seating. Looked at the driving license incase it was someone one of us knew. Alas, it was James. So I trawled the club to find him to give him back his wallet. Proved pretty difficult to find him as he was actually dressed in a spiderman suit that night! Anyway I found him and gave it back to him. We had a brief conversation and he thanked me.

    I then didn't see him for another 2 years (now 4th year of uni), I was out with my friends for the last night out at uni before we graduated (finalist friday). We were all moving home for good the next morning. Gotta add in here that I was now single. I was having an amazing night, turned around and who was there? James. I waved hello and he waved back. We went and did some shots, had a dance and abit of a smooch, and swapped numbers. I moved home to Wales the next morning and by the Monday he was in Wales with me and we've been inseparable ever since! We moved in together last year and he proposed exactly 2 years to the day of that finalist friday night :)

    Awwww bev that's a lovely story! I met my h2b at work. I had my interview there and bumped into him at the top of the stairs and thought he was a bit fit lol! Then I got the job and had only been there a short while when the girls kept telling me he fancied me which I didn't believe for a second! Then one day two people from work basically made adam ask me out on a date and the rest is history! The best of it was the day he picked me up for our first date my mum said to me he'd be the man I'd marry! x

We worked with each other for 2 years before even speaking to each other , Simon was in another relationship and I was going through a separation. I was single for 2 years before I spoke to Simon , he admitted he thought I was out of his league !! we are getting married three years to the day of our first date - we have been inseparable ever since and I have never been happier :) xx

    I met H2B at a job interview I was put next to him however at the time I was with my ex , when I sat down by him I didn't stop talking lol I didn't get the job but my ex went for same one and got it and he was then close friends with H2b so we all hung out at football , pubs and clubs and me and H2B got close and when me and ex split he asked me out .
    What is strange is his 2nd cousin was my dad's best mate , went teacher training with my mum and was my form tutor in school and this persons parents ran a shoe shop and gave me my first pair of shoes ever ! So due to the families being close at one point in time we would of been in the same place celebrating the same things !

    I too didn't believe in fate until I went out the night I split up with my ex of 2 years (really awful relationship). I was in a bar when a fight broke out, went outside and this groups of boys followed me and my friend out. Got talking to this group and went to another bar with them, Tom (h2b) went somewhere else. Next thing I know he's stood at the bar next to me ordering me a drink. Went out to the smoking area and chatted, he put his number in my phone, because I was too plastered. The club closed and he paid for my cab home and I text him when I got in to say thanks. He text me the next day and we started talking. Two days later my mum was diagnosed with breast cancer and he was the first person I rang. He picked me up, went to the shop and came out with a big bar of galaxy saying chocolate makes every girl feels better. We've been inseparable ever since :) I was 17 and he was 23 xx

    Definately believe in fate. I met OH at work - all very glamourous - but if I had turned down the job and kept the other one we would never have met. If not for me two of my BMs would not be with their husbands now!

    One met her hubby at a famous dance festival after I asked her at the last minute (literally a week before) to go with me and the other I popped on a dating website (the one where mates create a profile for you) and a week later I sent her this guys profile, turns out he had messaged her, she paid the fee to message him back and the rest is history. Both just celebrated second wedding anniversaries :-)

    I met my Chris because we had mutual friends. It was New Years eve ten years ago and a group of us were having a few drinks in the pub, but most of us had a bad cold for some reason and no one was very up for even making it until midnight, until someone suggested we invite Chris (who I'd never met before) to the pub to inject some life into the party, and about an hour later he turned up...we got chatting and didn't hit it off straight away but by the end of the evening I thought he was wonderful! We had a little kiss and exchanged numbers and the next day I said "I think I met the man I'm going to marry last night!" but due to a long story we didn't get together properly until four years later! Been together six years now and finally got engaged in August 2013. He is the only man for me and I love him to bits!

    Me and my H2B meant by a really good friend and I never said the nicest sentence to him that day.
    Then 2 years later he added me on fb and we started chatting really well on that one night then on the following day walking to school I saw him in the park called out his name and after about 1 week he finally asked me out and since that day we have always gone back to each other. xx

    Freashers week at uni.
    We both went to the 'welcome' by the JSoc (both jewish but of the bacon with a glass of milk type) think we both figured it would be a good way to meet people not from halls or course.
    He told me that I was making up being indian and I told him he looked like a squashed womble. Then we became friends. That christmas he asked me out (by the words 'We spend all this time together shall we add in the dance with no clothes as well?) For some reason I agreed to date him (no dance though :p)
    Been together ever since.

    I met my h2b in the pub. I when there to meet my m8 who has been my m8 for years so people including h2b thought we were dating. Then my friend told the guys that he was interested in me. I on the other saw this guy who I just met (yes h2b) and fancied him. The problem was my friend asked him for his help to find out if I liked him. So when he asked i said no and had a chat with my friend explaining that i known him for so long i could only ever be friends. Then i told h2b that i fancies him and he told me the same he just didn't wanna make a move on me because of my friend. So we went out one night and we have never been apart since. Xxxx

    I met my h2b at work. i remember seeing him at my interview, for his job as he got a promotion. his mum was training me up so whenever he popped to see her he used to talk to me too. we started seeing each other for a bit, his mum told him not to do anything stupid as their boss was my brother in law, so he managed to get me pregnant. left my job, and we've been inseparable after having our gorgeous girl and a beautiful boy. he's pretty special and im so lucky to be getting married to him, i thought hed never ask.

    I met my h2b on the market! We both had market stalls and he looked cold (never really spoke to him much) so I bought him a hot chocolate from the cafe , never thought anything of it then the next day he came with a HUGE bouquet of flowers for me, said they were in return for the hot chocolate(which only cost 80p lol) he asked for my number and my friend was really weary told me to stay clear of him because he had 2 kids to his previous, so I had to disguise giving him my number in code by singing a song and adding the digits in every couple of words!!! Was hillarious. We went on a first date to cinema and never seperated since!! 5 and half years and we have a 3 year old son and are due to get married in 3 and half months! Love his 2 kids and they love me!

    Long and most likely un interesting story but I met h2b through football and it almost didn't happen.

    I saw him briefly a week before When he turned up to check my team out with some mates as they were playing us the following week this was October 2007. I was assistant manager for a mens team and my team played the team he was playing for the week after, the first thing I noticed was how tall he was 6ft5 and his bum lol. I found his name out through the team sheet and to cut a long story short my mate searched him up on bebo and gave him my num we messaged and got to know each other and got together in May 2008. It only lasted a week as we only realised after getting together there was a 9 year age difference. He was 17 I was 26 and I had to end it even tho I told him I really liked him.

    We stayed in contact by occasional text and when I decided to set my own football team up I asked him if he would be interested in managing them with me. So we set the team up together and were quite happily going along as friends until we went on a team night out in 2009 and ended up at a foam party and because the floor was so slippy he ended holding me up all night.

    I realised that night just how much I loved being close to him how safe I felt, so I messaged him the next day telling him I had enjoyed the night before more than I maybe should have, when his arms were around me. (I didn't hear back from him for 5 hours, he normally text back in minutes) so I thought I'd blown our friendship.

    Turned out his battery had died, his reply was "if you love someone let them go if they return their yours forever" we'll we have been together ever since!

    These are all really lovely stories....Ours has been a bit of a whirlwind romance.

    We met April 27th 2013, we had both gone out to watch a band at a local pub, him with his friends and me with my best mate and her hubby. We arrived late and there were no free tables so we asked Michael (my now H2B) if we could sit at the end of their table...turns out he was quite shy so he just smiled and nodded.
    As the night progressed the drinks flowed, followed by shots, and before we knew it, the night was over and it was home time.
    As fate would have it, my taxi didn't turn up, and Michael being the gent he is refused to leave me on my own so late and asked his driver to "help him out"....basically I had to cancel my taxi in order for the driver to let me in that one.
    As far as I knew I was going home but Michael had other ideas and invited me into town for another drink (or 3 lol), I happily accepted. Just a couple of hours later I was heading home with his phone number and a massive smile on my face.
    We spent the next week texting constantly and officially became an item on May 5th 2013.
    Michael proposed to me 5 weeks ago, one one knee, at the pub we met at, just 7 months into our relationship, after a very quick and sneaky phone call to my mum asking her for her blessing.
    I owe my present and future happiness to the cab driver that never turned up.

    Aww these stories are amazing.

    I met my H2b through a mutual friend she lived in Spain at the time and Id visit her about 4 times a year. My h2b met her while he was on holiday as she worked in a bar they went to quite often. She was home for a visit April 2005 but I was with someone else at the time and my friend liked my ex friend so we all ended up back at my ex flat for a party. I couldn't help but look at h2b and think whoa hes hot (my relationship with ex was hitting the skids) after that party and my friend was back in Spain I never thought of H2 b again I split from my ex in May 2005 and decided I was being single for at least 6 months I was 22 and wanted some time with my friends and to enjoy the single life as I always seemed to be in a relationship.

    28th October 2005 me my H2b and my friend from Spain (she had moved back home the week before) just the three of us were on a night out and I was so smashed and was flirting with my now h2b so bad but he was oblivious to it and I thought he wasn't interested. I didn't want my friend to be stuck in the middle should we get together and it end badly so I said nothing to her until a few weeks later when I was asking her all about him etc. I was working until 11pmthat night and I got a txt from him on the way home (I was sat at a red light in the car and got so excited) We texted for ages that night and arranged to go out the following Monday for our first date. I was so nervous I almost didn't go, I am glad I had the courage to go as we have now been together 8 years bought a house together had some very hard times and had out precious son and he proposed to me 2 months ago completely out the blue as he always said he didn't want to get married. We are now getting married in 19 months time.

    We met at college. I've always been a shy person when it comes to meeting new people, so I always hid from Jay behind my best friend (the good thing about having a male best friend and being as small as me is that you have a mobile hiding spot hehe). After weeks of seeing me around the college common room, Jay decided to stop me from hiding by making sure to catch me on my own:) 2 years later he proposes to me under my favourite tree:) xoxox

    Met on a dating website after we both drunkenly joined in January 2012 determined to try online dating after both our relationships ended (gladly for the both of us, the people we were with were awful!) He saw my picture appear at the top of the page and clicked favorite...not knowing it would send me an email saying "Dave has added you to his favorites!" I messaged him, saying I didnt know if he knew it sent out an email to whoever you clicked as favorite... and it all started from there! Within the first two months we had sent around 4000 messages in text and online, by the 3rd March when we finally met up we got together that night, and by the 30th May I was spending my last night in my village and moved in 1st June 2012. We are now getting married in June this year. :) Life works in mysterious ways!!

    We met at uni. Turns out we'd almost met a number of times before (at bars and festivals and things) but it wasn't until we were at uni that we finally managed to sit down and properly meet. One night I wanted to go to rock night but most of my friends were either ill or had gone back home for the weekend so I went over to his halls and dragged him and his flatmates out with me and at the end of the night we all went back to theirs to order a pizza but I was instead lead into his room and after we sat and chatted for ages and finally told each other how we felt he then kissed me... and that was as far as it went that night, although it was about 1pm the next day before I wondered back to my place. On our 2nd anniversary we moved in together, on our 8th he proposed and our 10th will be our wedding day but it really has gone by so quickly - that first kiss still feels like it was only 5 minutes ago, let alone 9 years.

I moved in with my Grandparents for 1 year when I was 18 and I got really close to his sister and a year later I started dating her brother. We have been together ever since. 7 years by the time we get married. We are going to have the theme tune to "neighbours" played at our wedding at some point.

    We met at school when we were 13. We were really good friends but never fancied each other. Then we left school at 16 and everyone stayed in touch and every Thursday we would meet in town for a night out. (So bad to think we all went drinking at the age of 16, we thought we were so grown up). Anyhow every Thursday we would have a little kiss and then I started going out with someone and then oh realised how much he liked me. And decided to tell me on a Thursday night out, then he stopped coming out. Me and my ex broke up after a few weeks, now I think what on earth was I thinking. Them oh start coming back out and as soon as I seem him out I realised how much I liked him. We've been together since. Nearly 10 year now.

    Bumping an old thread....

    We met online! Not a dating site, just by chance on a social networking site not unlike mytwitface (love that combination of the popular ones) it was called face party but it doesn't exist anymore as it used to be, they turned it into a paid dating site about 3 years after we met.

    You could send little smilies and he sent me a sweet. We got chatting and after a while he asked me out to dinner.

    I actually turned him down! Told him I love chatting but not interested in anything else.

    After a while he asked again, I said no again. I'd not long broken up with a long term relationship and was still in process of selling the house....I was a mess. I told my mum about him and she told me to go for it. I was worried as I was 26 and he was 39. But I agreed to meet for lunch, in a place that a group of my friends were (on purpose) also having lunch at another table, incase if needed rescuing.

    We got on really well, he's a charmer and a gent. We've been inseparable since!

    My mum loved him, (she has since passed away) my dad loves him, and I love him x

    We met online too, he saw a profile I didn't use on another site and I was slightly out of his age range on eharm. So he lowered his lower limit (I am 9 years younger) and I came up as a match! Turns out we lived round the corner from each other aswell even though I had quite a wide distance set as I was working in Central London and could travel easily. We chatted for a while, I even went on a date with someone else which didn't go well, chatted to him a bit more then eventually we met up one Saturday afternoon :) I was hesitant as his picture wasn't very clear and I was worried he wasn't who he said he was. Turns out he just had a crap choice of profile picture!

    Aww there are some lovely stories here! :) I met my OH 8 years ago through our mutual friends (He is good friends with one of my bridesmaid's sister) and one night we all went to the cinema :) we were sitting beside each other and he tried to hold my hand but ended up spilling popcorn over me instead lol we became an item a few days later and have spent the last eight years together :) he is my best friend and just means the world to me, I feel so lucky to have met my one when we were so young it means we get to spend many many years together :)

    We actually worked together for 6 months and he apprentice had a huge crush on me but I was a really shy person who was to total unaware of his moves lol. I left that job and he added me on Facebook commenting randomly on my posts for a few weeks before asking me on a date :) was really sweet when he told me the story from his point as apparently he would say hi and I'd run away!

    Me and Tony worked together, he worked in the factory and I worked in the office. We all went out on a leaving do/birthday party and we got talking there. We got to know each other over the next few weeks and started seeing each other. He always used to say he didn't want kids and he didn't want to get married, yet here we are almost 7 years later, with 2 beautiful girls and planning our big day :-D lol xx

    My OH and I met when we were both 20, I was in a relationship at the time and a full time student when me and two other girls went out to a local night club and while sitting at table all of a sudden an ice cube whizzed past my nose! I turned around to see who it was when I saw this bar man in a black t-shirt and jeans with dirty blonde/ginger hair give the biggest smile and made the universal gesture for "ssshhh!" and then one of the girls I was with turned and said "Oh, that's my Greg!" I instantly thought they were together. Turned out later on after we were introduced they weren't and very quickly I became attracted to him. We were friends after that and soon after my relationship with ex fell apart and a short while after that my OH and I started seeing eachother. Been together ever since.

    We met on an internet dating site :o) Our first date was in a local pub and I well and truly broke the ice when I smashed a vase on the shelf behind me!

    I met my H2B on my sisters Christmas work night out (they were co workers), I was instantly attracted to him and every time he looked over I quickly looked away. I could tell he was attracted to me and after a few hours of eyeing each other up he approached me and offered me a drink. we chatted for the rest of the night and he finally plucked up the courage to kiss me just as I was leaving to get my taxi home. we exchanged numbers, met up for dates for 7/8 months then he moved into my house and ive never looked back since, in fact I cant imagine my life without him.

    met 11th December 2010
    engaged 2nd August 2013
    getting married to the love of my life 11th july 2015

    I had moved to Wales and was moving schools, was being shown round the school on my first day and in my House class, was Marcus sat at the back of class next to one of his childhood friends, swinging on the back of his chair staring at me. He was the first person I saw and I couldnt take my eyes off of him. That summer we got to talking on MSN and a year later he asked me out. ( I didnt know at the time but was his friend asking me out for him for a joke) I was shocked but said yes, he was one of the most popular guys in school and I just wasnt haha. We have been together ever since :) over 7 years now, but will be 8 years on the day, i thought what better date to choose for the wedding :)

    I met my h2b at work. When I went for my interview he apparently told the boss that he had to hire me as he thought I was very attractive. So when the boss did hire me he obviously tried to make conversation with me and we became work buddies. It was very comfortable talking to him so there was always a connection there between us. At the time we were both in relationships with other people but when we both split from those relationships we got together and here we are. We have a very health and fun relationship going, he is my best friend and my soul mate and we have a gorgeous little girl, a house and we are getting married soon! I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him, we have so many plans for the future! x

    Met my OH at my sisters house. My BIL worked with him and he used to go round nearly every friday after work (both work in a primary school) and I just happened to be there visting to see my then 1 month old niece. My sister was talking to him while I was playing with the baby asking about the date he'd been on the night before (always wind him up about that ahha!) About a week later he added me on FB, got my number from my profile then we started texting. We texted every single day, morning til night until we moved in together.

    We got together 25th March 2013
    Went on holiday 4th August 2013 and moved into his house with his parents in the last week of August

    Some lovely stories on here ladies! I met my h2b on Plenty Of Fish. Id been on there a couple of months just scouting about, chatting to a few (one who ended up being on of my bestest mates!) when on 18th March around 11.08am I received a message from Tom :) we chatted for days then weeks until he finally called me. His voice was perfect! I found out later on that his message to me was his last ditch attempt at online dating before deleting his profile! Xxx
