Hey ya'll! Kasey over at all that is good has a stinkin' cute new button to go with her fun Monday blog carnival. You can click on it to be magically transported to her beautifully redecorated site and get the lowdown on Friend Makin' Monday.
Today's Question, in honor of Kasey's 7th Anniversary (go tell her Happy Anniversary!):
How did you and your significant other meet? and if you don't have a significant other at the moment then what would be your dream way to meet him?
Rob and I met 14 years ago. I got hired to work in sales at Computer House where Rob worked in the warehouse. He was a skinny, geeky guy that wore his shirts tucked in to his too tight levi's and his high top tennies. We met in 1995. I flirted a bit and he was oblivious. I flirted a lot, and still he was oblivious. (Duh.) His friends finally sold him a clue and I asked him to go out with me. He said sure, and invited me to lunch with him and another guy from work named Peter. Peter was a perv that spent the whoel lunch making comments and looking down my shirt. Rob says it was a strategic move because, really, who can look bad next to Peteer?! HA! We went to dinner the next day and, seriously? Have been together pretty much ever since. There was about 4 days where we "took a break" (ha!) but other than that...it's been going strong since then. We worked together and I'd hang out with him after work. He'd drive me home at about 1-2am and we'd sit in the car and "talk" until 3 or 4. Then he'd drive the 30 minutes home where we'd repeat the same scene until we moved in together (read: lived in sin). This June is our 13th Anniversary. We got engaged 2 months after we met and got married a year after we got engaged.
So, there ya go. Boring story. LOL
How'd YOU meet your sugar pie honey bunch?
Have a day!

We pretty much have the same story but I have 10 years on ya.
Dang I'm old!
Awwww, so sweet. :) I love his strategy.
Not boring at all, esp. the part about pervy peter. Someone should invent a trap that shoots something into the eyes of people who are looking down shirts uninvited.
Ha, funny about Peter. Glad you two found each other. ;o) Not you and the perv, but you and your hubby. Ha.
Love it! You guys are way too cute.
What a sweet story. Happy Monday.
I can't believe he invited a perv to lunch with you! lol! That is a great story!
Love the notion that he could look SO good next to Pete the Perv!! That's hilarious! Thanks for hangin' at my blog!
That was funny and sweet! THanks for sharing. I love that he was clueless. Men.
How sweet! Beauty and the Geek got married! Just kidding and for the record you said geeky first! Love it! Congrats on 14 years!
I love that your hubs brought a skeevy guy along to make himself look better! Smart!
BTW - Not boring. Any story that happily spans 14 years and counting is AMAZING in this day and age!
Just like the computer house...Our love was started in a Best Buy in Michigan!!! He was a manager, I was a cashier...!!!
What a lovely story! You two lovebirds!
What a sweet story....wow 14 years....way to go!
Happy FMM!
Hi - Cute story - much succint than mine. My husband and I used to sit in the car and "talk" until the wee hours too. (LOL!)
Have a great Memorial Day (what's left of it!)
Awww it was love at firs sight!!
As for me I met my Hubby at the corner grocery store and tried to hook him up with my GF. He had no interest in her so we got to talking, then we were hooked up, then we were an item and finally loving each other forever after. We'll have been together 36 years come 6/30 and married happily 30 of those years!
Have a Blessed Memorial Day!
14 years!! That's wonderful!!!
What a smart guy to bring along a pervert (not often you can say that). Apparently it was a great strategy!!
I love your third sentence...a skinny-geeky guy with his shirt tucked into his too-tight jeans and high top tennies...that is great stuff! Congrats on meeting the love of your life! Cute family! Stopping over from FMM
That's a sweet story...and happy 'almost' anniversary!
In a casino bar in Vegas. Yep, a proud story I can't wait to tell my kids when they ask!
I'm liking me some too tight jeans. Sweet story.
Met my hubby at work. He asked God if he could have me, and I thought he had big ears. 10 years later, here we are.
I met Michael at work, too. I was the manager and he was my assistant. We've been together 8 years, married for almost 7.
Hey I met my man at work too! Great story! Hey my man still struggles with leaving a shirt untucked!
What a story!! How I met mine. . . through his fiancee. ;) I suppose I oughta tell that story sometime.
Great story...and the Peter part is hilarious! My hubs and I met in college. I was basically foreced to talk to him by my college BFF who was dating his BFF. We had a "break" too...a bit longer than 4 days though! I knew he'd come runnin' back...
we met online. I was working in Japan and he was in college in Oklahoma. That was 10 years ago!
