April 21, 201015 yr The basement at Kam's. Not exactly the basement of the Alamo, but it's pretty close.

April 22, 201015 yr blackplanet.com before it started sucking. I was in Iraq at the time and I just kind of randomly stumbled across her page and started talking to her, and she responded, and it went from there. Although she flew to Chicago to see me when I got back and took leave I never expected to actually date her, let alone marry her. Then a couple months later I decided to reenlist and change duty stations to Maryland, where she lived (I had been stationed in Georgia at the time, and this was all coincidental and I didn't plan it) and one thing led to another. Funny b/c I used to use BP just to hook up with women, not actually find girlfriends... lol. I must've met 10 different women off there... yeah, I got around probably more than I should have

April 27, 201015 yr Came back drunk one night at about 2 or 3 in the morning, wasn't ready to go to bed, my roommate was sleeping, and she was the only person awake on the floor with her door open. We ended up sitting around and talking for a couple hours before heading to bed, and we made it a weekly ritual. Truth be told, I had nonchalantly talked to her a bit before then, but that was the initial conversation that sparked our relationship.
April 27, 201015 yr I met my now wife on MatchMaker.com back in 2002 (I think it is now a completely differant site). This was before meeting people online was largely socially acceptable. She was at school in South Dakota (she grew up in Iowa) and I was going to Columbia College in Chicago. She is the one who contacted me... said I looked like a teady bear. We married in 2005. Celebrating 5 years in August. Edited April 27, 201015 yr by Athomeboy_2000
April 27, 201015 yr 10 yrs ago, I met my now wife in an AOL chat room. 7 yrs to this day we have been married. Everyone thought we were nuts dating from the internet.

April 27, 201015 yr We met through mutual friends the night before game 1 of the World Series and hit it off right away. She's a Cubs fan, but she hung out and put up with all my drunken celebratory antics for the next week, and now we've been married over a year.
April 27, 201015 yr QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Apr 27, 2010 -> 07:40 AM) University of South Dakota Kinda figured so, we have a ton of people from Iowa here. I'm sure she was happy to get the hell out of Vermillion though, as this place can lull people to sleep if they aren't careful.
April 28, 201015 yr I was in the Coast Guard stationed in Baltimore, and she was working for the DOT (in the Chicago office) as an auditor. I was attending a class she was auditing. I asked her to dinner and to "show her around Baltimore" the second day of class. We were engaged 3 months later and married less than a year after that. It was a long distance relationship until I got transferred to Chicago a month before the wedding.
