    Me (TheWillow82) and Matt (supertot) met on ********** back in December 2009 and now here we are planning our wedding! I hate the way people sneer at me when I tell them how we met! Did anyone else find their other half online too?

    EDIT please dont mention sites or leave links on the forum

    Yes, but facebook, not a dating site. We'd known each other at school but not seen or been in touch for just over 20 years.

    Me and my h2b met on the book of face too :) he was a friend of a friend and commented on a photo of me and we got chatting. I always feel a bit embarrassed when people ask how we met, it's silly really because people have different lives these days. They might have children or can't afford to get out the same so how else are you meant to meet people!

    me and oh met online 3 years ago come october. Yet it is funny as he used to live just down the road from me, his parents stay 5 min away from my dads family (who we visited at least once a year - usually more) and he used to walk past my uncles house quite a bit. All the times we could have met - but we found each other online.

    Yep, we met through a dating site. It's out 3 year anniversary tomorrow - the last one we'll celebrate on this date, and the last one that I'll be a miss for. It's a bit sad really! But we'll have another date to celebrate from next year, so lets look on the bright side! Hx

    I met my oh at work but I've got some good friends that met online. They've been married 8 years now and have a little girl and planning number 2 :) They were so concerned about what people would think of them but everyone was fine :)

    Wow, so many lasting relationships that started online- great to hear when all the media likes to show are the horror stories.

    We didn't meet online, but our relationship more or less blossomed via msn messenger. We went to different colleges, so msn was how we saw each other during the exam period when we didn't have time to go out.

    I have made some fantastic friends via the internet- some of my best friends I met via a Charmed forum. One of whom is coming to my wedding and playing a role in the handfasting (just the one because the others all live abroad and couldn't afford to come over).

    didnt meet online but met at work and also there i can guarantee u it isnt always easy especially if working colleagues know all or better about ur life etc or think they do... bi*chying ever so often where ever they can... ridiculous as ppl cant see how good we really are together so it doesnt matter were u meet nowadays ppl will always find something to moan if they not liking it...

    i mostlikely have only working colleagues as friends how can i get other friends so hard nowadays especially if work leads your private life as well...

    so congrats hun and be strong and dont care what other ppl think its about u and h2b not them :)

    i met mine on book of face too, but really cant see the difference between meeting someone online and someone at a nightclub or pub, you know more about someone on line as you tend to chat for ages before you meet then you do with someone in a nightclub :)

    i dont care what people think I love my h2b and he loves me and thats all that matters.

    getting married on 29th June 2013
    You cant please everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    love smillies :)

    We didn't meet online (got together via a mutual friend introducing us) - but before I met h2b I used to do internet dating. In fact, so did h2b (but not the same ones lol).

    I think it's a good way to meet each other because depending on your circumstances you might not get the opportunity or have friends that you can go out drinking with, to meet people. I was a single parent before I met h2b so didn't have a social life on a big scale (my parents babysat sometimes).

    No one should look down on you or make comments - everyone meets their partner different ways and it's nice to hear the other side of internet dating as all you ever hear is about all the 'weirdos' on there (I've met some of them lol - but some nice people as well).

    I met my other half on a dating site 4 years ago and we are getting married next year! We met on 24 March and he had more or less moved in by the 31!!!

    I must admit, I did meet a few muppets before I met Paul, which kinda put me off for a while, but then I met him and all was right with the world. He is the BEST thing to ever have happened to me.

    I met my h2b online 5 and a half years ago, we spent 3 months emailing each other four or five times a day before we actually met face to face, and by that time we had fallen head over heels for each other, we are so happy together and have a beautiful daughter. I still can't believe how lucky I am to have met him.
