How did you meet your significant other

I'm not married yet but my gf and I been together for 8 years now. We met in college freshman year. I had a party in my room and invite the whole floor and she challenged me to a rounds of shots of tequila. Make a short story even shorter she beat me and I was impressed...lol.

Removed Cello joke, thanks Amily, and i did not know what Cielo meant, Thanks for posting it!

Eh, why not?

Most of the people I talk to regularly in-game already know this, but to start off with; Phoenix and I met each other in game.

It was in August of 2008; I was farming with a fellow VG member at the time and at some point while we were he received a tell from someone, asking if he could join. We agreed, and all three of us continued farming.

All the while, he was talking; during our group conversation I found we had a lot in common, but me, being shy by nature, can take some time to become acclimated to someone else so I didn't have an active role in the conversation. Another VG mate of mine joined and after a little while longer, we stopped farming and played different characters. At the time I belonged to a VG named Hidden Star Village, and all (or at least most of us) were anime fans and discovered that Phoenix Master (or PM, as we called him at the time), was also a fellow aficionado. Gradually, as time went on, only myself and Phoenix were left online together. And of course, we proceeded to talk long into the early morning, and I honestly can't even remember what we talked about. >>

Over time, we developed a strong friendship, but at some point something more developed. Sometime the next year we finally met, things went perfectly, and we're still going strong; I'll be picking him up at the airport today (he attends classes in New York while I attend classes in California). He's was the first person I met in person after first meeting online, and so far he's still the only one.

He's a few years younger than I am (I never thought I'd go for a man younger than I am; or at least that young), but we didn't really talk about that until after we had gotten into a relationship, and at that point it didn't even matter anymore. It's almost hard to believe we only met in a game, considering how close we've become, but I definitely won't have any complaints. A series of events had to occur for me to even play City of Heroes (PlayNC shut down another MMO and offered City of Heroes as a gift to apologize), and for me, having a game I loved get shut down was worth it if it meant I got to meet my "Brian" (some of you will understand ).

We have plans to finish our respective educations before we plan to fix our "other side of the country" problem. It's not an easy situation, but we cope with it as best we can and know that we'll make up the time spent apart by spending much more time together afterwards.

I actually met my husband in prison.............. I was an officer and yes he was also an officer....we have worked together for the last 10 years and married for the last 5 years...It was a match made in "prison" lol

I signed up for Amy G Dala's Date -A- Corr Service.
