    Nope! I was young and living in the UK, working as a teacher and having lots of fun. And dating lots of guys. But, he was persistent! And it worked.

    I knew we would become serious when we met. We fell in love within 2 weeks and started talking marriage right away! We waited 5+ years to get engaged though! We were teenagers when we met.

    Nope. We were dating other people and were just acquaintances. After we ended our relationships (on the same day...not planned!), we became friends. It didn't take too long to start thinking that he could be "the one."

    Nope! When we first met, I didn't even care to remember his name. It took 3 months of seeing each other every day and hanging out together all weekend with friends for me to spike an interest in him. Ha!

    No, but I knew right away that I liked him and he was a person I wanted to spend more time with. I didn't know that I wanted to marry him until we had been dating 10 months.

    I knew about 1 1/2 months in.

    I knew at our first meeting that he was HOT. I knew by our 5th date that he was really intelligent, had a good job, AND was a real gentleman--a vary rare combination.

    I knew on our road trip 1 1/2 months later, when he locked himself in the bathroom for 15 minutes, (and I was like...wth), and then he came out with the most adorable love-sexy coupons that he'd been cutting that I was going to want to keep him around for a very, very long time.

    I know now, after marriage.....I made the right choice.

    No. When we first met i actually told him I didn't like him haha and it wasn't until after a few months of dating when I thought he could be the one

    I literally looked at him and thought "He's cute and Jewish (we were at temple), he's totally someone I could marry."

    @WinnieBee: That is so sweet - what a great story!

    I knew DH was the one pretty quickly . . . he was insanely witty, kind, and we had instant chemistry.

    @Anonysquire: I met my DH at a house party . . . he was the only single guy present that didn't ask me out. So I made it pretty obvious that I was interested in him. It totally worked!

    @MsLipGloss: We went to HS together too! We sat at the same lab bench in HS and we both liked each other then but nothing came of it. He transferred high schools and we didn't reconnect until college!

    @WinnieBee: Wow - I'm jealous! I didn't meet my DH until I was 31. I have often wondered how my life would be different if I had met him sooner . . . at least we found each other when we did.

    yep! We moved in together after only 6 months and got married after dating only a year. We got knocked up with this baby 9 months after that! When you know, you know!

    @MsLipGloss: That's true, better late than never! We started dating at age 20 (almost 21) but didn't get engaged until age 28 and married at 29. Baby at 31. We took things slowly since we were both in professional school.

    Nope! I remember thinking when I closed the door after our first date, "well, i'm never going to hear from him again". He was very quiet and I got diarrhea of the mouth and annoyed myself. Who knew we'd be still be together 9 years later!

    I love this thread.

    When we first met, absolutely not. Then we met again 2 years later after talking for a couple of months. While we were talking I thought possibly... I had been desperate for a boyfriend for a LONG time. When we met, I thought maybe. I knew he was the one after exactly one month of dating and I didn't get sick of him. (Usually with guys it would take exactly 4 weeks of him liking me and I'd do a 180 and push him away and not ever want to see him again. Really destroyed many guy friendships I had!! When I still wanted to see Wagon Sr. after 4 weeks I knew he was the one. 10 years later I still want to see him every day!)

    I met him at a bar through friends in 2004. The friend that I was with that night told me to think of marriage with him and started saying "Mrs. Cascademom." We started dating right after meeting and have been together since. I'm no longer friends with the girl, but we married 5 years to the day we met.

    We were set up on a blind date by my mom and his sister. I knew the second I saw him I was going to marry him. I even told my mom that night. It was an overwhelming feeling.

    Absolutely not. When we met, I was a senior in high school and he was a FRESHMAN lol. The age difference seems minimal now, but back then, he was a child haha

    I met my husband when I first went to college. I became friends with his girlfriend. They broke up our freshman year in college but stayed friends. I always thought he was attractive but it is a bit taboo to date your friends ex. After five years we just went for it. I remember telling my cousin after two weeks of dating that he could be the one.

    I was only 15 when we met, starting dating right before I turned 16, so I wasn't really thinking that far, but for being teenagers we quickly headed that direction. When he graduated he went to San Francisco for 5 months and that quickly determined where we were at. We got engaged when I was 18 and he was 20, married 1 year later!
