I'm always impressed and surprised when people can give the exact date they began dating. I can tell you it was the summer of 02, but can't narrow it down any better than that.

I just remembered what he said to me when he wanted to be exclusive

I consider it our first actual date, which I know the precise day of. We were chatting/flirting for a couple of weeks before that. We met a few years previously (I remember where, but not the date).
I don't know the exact time (dinner time, I guess) or what we were wearing, but I do know the place.
We ended up getting married on the same day 4 years later.

I don't remember what we were wearing, but it's very clear because A) it was not even a full 3 years ago and B) it's on my calendar

I'm sure I can look back at a calendar, maybe? We are not even sure of our Anniversary (the day of our first date in Jan? Or the day we became BF/GF in Feb?)
Either way, we totally forgot our Anniversary this year...i guess we aren't big anniversary people! Haha

I know the month. It's confusing to say exactly when we became official. When do people start counting? If it's first date, we courted for about a month.

haha. I can. June 9, 2008.
I also do remember where we went (we go there every year for out anniversary!). We went to one of my fav restaurants, Fiore's. Then we were having such a good time we decided to go to a movie. It was Don't Mess With the Zohan. IT WAS THE WORST MOVIE EVER.
I also remember what we were wearing. Mostly because I looked like an idiot and he looked so handsome.
This is a pic from our wedding day, we got married blocks away from where we went on our first date:
ETA: I realize I'm a HUGE nerd....

I don't know the exact date, but I do remember what we did, where we ate, and the wallet I had that day (random, I know). We had been flirting for awhile before that, and I can narrow it down to a two week span, so close enough, right?
We picked a date to celebrate on that was in that window and have been celebrating it that day ever since.

i can tell you when i first slept with him, we weren't dating, we didn't come clean to everyone that we were dating for almost 4 months after we first... yeah.

Nope! We weren't really dating, it kind of just evolved to that and we went a lunch date together one day. I do remember what day he made us exclusive though.

January 2, 2010. We had been on some dates as friends before that, but that was our first true date.

No. We were friends for awhile before things turned, so we didn't really have an official first date.
GOLD / pineapple / 12662 posts
Yes! I remember what we both were wearing, too.
@.twist.: we were married about a block from where we first met!

Haha I don't remember clothes but yep! 10/17/03 - we were high school seniors and had been "hanging out" for a few weeks. We were watching That 70s Show and it was some episode where one of the guys was trying get a girlfriend, and he turned to me said something dorky like "do you want to be MY girlfriend?"
Sounds so lame now to share that as an adult, but we have been exclusively together for the almost 11 years since

It was around June 20th, 2006. We went to a nice hipster bar that's since gone out of business, walked around town and then went back to his place to watch scary movies (and make out). I don't remember what he wore that night, or what he changed into the next morning. (bow-chicka-wow-wow)
blogger / honeydew / 7081 posts
Yep, because we were 15 and he asked me out over MSN messenger. I think I took a picture of the screen, lol.
Our first date was breakfast on Christmas Eve...with my whole family.

Yup!
I met him on 6.6.06 & have photos from that night, so I know what we were wearing.
I thought we had been together, but he didn't officially ask me to be his girlfriend until July 12.
Here is our first photo together-- I have photos from the night we met, but we didn't take any together.
Our first official date was in early July, in Virginia beach. He took me to eat at the Raven. Every time we are in OBX and have free time, we drive up for lunch!

I know the date, but not our clothes, etc. LOL I only know the date because it was the day after my brothers birthday.

Nope, we were young and didnt plan on it being serious. It was somewhere around memorial day weekend 2003.
