Where Did You Meet Your Oh?

[pixie373]

My sister joined a dating website a few months ago. She's been happily single for 8 years and isn't all that bothered, but giving it a go.
She thinks she doesn't meet many men because she doesn't have really ggo to pubs and clubs. So, we were wondering how many people did meet their future husband/wife/SO in a pub or club. I guessed not as many as you might think.
I met my OH because he was one of my karate instructors.

Where did you meet yours? With as much or little detail as you like!

I met my current partner originally back in 1974 at the NAAFI club on my RAF base - got engaged - she finished it and then I met my late wife at another NAAFI club on another base where I was working on the door. After she passed I was re-united with my partner thanks to her contacting me via Faceache

I met my husband at work.

I was lucky, I worked for the MOD and was surrounded by fit young Army officers, eye candy all around.....especially on Wednesday afternoons....... happy days :-)

whilst working as a chimney sweep in Transylvania, i was up a chimney and he was coming home to roost, we met halfway and the rest they say is history

Not my story -- obviously -- but somewhere around on the internet there is the lovely story of a couple who met when he was her gynaecologist... later he "found" the engagement ring in her and the rest as they say is history... !!

Met mine through answerbank. We both joined an answerbank Facebook group, got chatting online, eventually met and got together. Been living together since mid 2010.

Met her in a Club where she was working as a lap dancer.
As I slipped a ten pound note in to her bikini bottom she looked down from plinth and said:

"Thanks Luv, fancy a bunk up?"

Straight away I knew that was the woman for me.............

I hope Mrs Sqad doesn't read Answerbank (LOL)

Blind date set up by a friend who was dating her friend.Married two years later.

My OH was a cashier in the hotel where I was staying in Blackburn. She came into the bar at just gone 11pm to empty the till.

The barman commented that here was his next girlfriend, to which I placed a bet with him that I, not him, would take her out first.

With that, I followed her to the reception and asked her to accompany me to the local nightclub (the cabaret was Bob Monkhouse who was amazing!), she agreed, and on our third date I proposed.

We've now been married for 43 years.

OH and myself met at work. I still remember seeing him for the first time walking down a corridor towards me and the smile he gave me. 13 years later, still weak at the knees :-)
I used to work in a gym and was amazed how many people met/ dated/ got married from working out. Other than that, a couple of people I know met through walking their dogs and chatting, leading to dating.

Wow- so the AB dating method is "pretty much anywhere"!
work is not helpful from my sister's point of view- the only men we see are over 85 (and not rich enough for that). Dog-walking, though, might work. Or I'll advise her to stick to the lap-dancing and wait for sexy doctors...;-)
