Were you and your SO friends before you dated?
I was not. My husband and I met online both of us seeking a long term, romantic relationship. Of course, I would call him my friend because we have fun together, but truly we are lovers.

@meredithNYC: us too!
We met at a pub and I asked him for his number. We both weren't looking for anything serious and our initial intentions were to "play the field" but we fell head over heels for each other and were exclusive by the second date.
-
We were friends in middle school and all through high school. Started dating Senior year. So we definitely started out as good friends.

We worked together for a few months before we started dating. We had mutual friends, but had never hung out until his last night at our workplace and that's when it started.

We were very good friends for a year before we started dating; we met our first week of college and were part of the same college friend group that always hung out together, and I was in a long-distance relationship with my high school boyfriend. It developed into a flirtation hardcore when my boyfriend and I broke up in April, though both of us had unacknowledged secret feelings before that.
-
We met through a mutual friend, but it became obvious pretty quickly that we each wanted to be more than friends so I would say we weren't friends first.

We were friend flirty (met at my first job) and I was just getting out of a serious relationship. But we were def more lovers than friends.

@ILoveLettie: Sounds like us. We met early my freshman year of college and were really good friends and hung out with the same friend group for 2.5 years before we started dating.
-
We worked together, but were each dating other people when he started teaching at my school. (We now teach in different districts.) I can still remember when he walked in to our summer PD and thinking, whoa, cute guy. We were sorta friendly, mostly flirty until we were both single and he asked me on a date.
-
Man this is tough for me to answer! We weren't really ever just friends because there was flirting from day one and from the day we met we talked every single day even though we weren't officially dating until 6 months later. I would say we were dating from the beginning but weren't in an official relationship for awhile.
-
We were acquaintances for about 2 years and then went straight into a relationship!
-
Yes, when we became friends, we were both dating other people!
