How did you meet your SO?

K9karen, my husbands name is John too

Our meeting was kind of a mutual "running into the right person at the right time" I was at Dennys at a Star Trek club meeting of all things (Yeah, I'm a nerd). John was there for a totally different reason. His ex-girlfriend took him there for a sympathy dinner because she was breaking up with him and kicking him out of her house (real nice huh). For some reason, we both kept looking at each other from across the resturant but we both were too shy to directly say anything. At the end of the club meeting, John managed to get the attention of one of my friends to ask for an introduction because he "Just HAD to talk to me" We ended up chatting for a while, mostly about computers lol. When I finally had to go home, his ex told him as I left "I think you just met your soulmate"
Well, he called me a couple days later to see if I wanted to interview for a job in the computer shop he was running at the time. The "interview" ended up in a several hour long conversation about our past relationships and how we had both kept ourselves in less than healthy relationships out of a feeling of obligation. We made plans to see each other outside of a working environment and the rest as they say is history We've been married for almost three years and together for over four.

Welllll.....I actually met my husband at Wal-Mart



The old Wal Mart in our town used to have car shows on Saturday nights in the parking lot, so some friends and I would go up there and walk around. My husband was there with some of his friends, and as it turned out, my friends knew his friends. We all hung out at car show for a couple of weeks together before Shawn got the nerve up to ask for my phone number....but of course he never called me. A couple of weeks later, our mutual friends decided to go to a drive in movie and both of us ended up going, and he asked me out there. I was starting to wonder if he was EVER going to ask me out!
