Anna & Adam
Married on 12/27/2008

I met Adam on MyYearbook.com (it's now called meetme.com) February 2008, I joined that site because this guy who was trying to get with me would send me surveys on myspace and it was so much easier to do the surveys if you made an account on the website they were from. So I made the account and one of the things the website was famous for was battles, picture battles amongst strangers (best smile, who's hotter, best ride...etc etc) well you can vote for as many battles as you want, even if you don't know either of the contestants. I was browsing through them and a best smile match up popped up, I was instantly drawn in and attracted to the guy. He had the most amazing hazel eyes and a killer smile to match. I clicked on his profile and found out he was a Marine stationed in Okinawa, Japan. This was comical to me because at that time I was an Army Soldier stationed in San Antonio, TX. I ended up buying him a virtual gift: a dinner   and he sent me a virtual gift too, a penguin...I love penguins but he didn't know that at the time, along with his gift there was a message: "In real life it would be I who took you out to dinner" from that day on we talked almost everyday, we added each other on myspace and messenger, eventually we started skyping and talking on the phone. We met in person June 2009, did I mention that he is from Texas?   he was coming home on leave for his sister's wedding and asked me to be his date...his sister ended up eloping and I thought I would never get to see him since he had no reason to come meet me anymore, but he ended up driving from his hometown to San Antonio (a 6-7 hour drive) and we drove back to his hometown...I met his family and spent the next 3 weekends with him. He then flew back to Okinawa and I went back to my military base. We didn't know if we were ever going to see each other again, specially since I was scheduled to be stationed in Germany in the next couple of months. But in August of 2008 I found out I was pregnant...He proposed in October. Came back from Okinawa got stationed in North Carolina, still a couple of states away from me. We got married in December and I left the Army in February 09. We're now both out of the military and live in his hometown. We have 3 beautiful children. And more in love than when we first met.

Me and my now husband technicially met through his younger brother. I interened in his brother's daycare class for a year. I would be there when his mom brought him in so she new who I was. She owned a party store. When I needed a job I went in and applied. Lucky me she only hired people she knew. That is when I met her middle son (current husband). We started dating a month later and have been together every since. We started dating 10-13-06 and got married 06-12-10. Justin and Erin

Mae and D. Married Dec 28, 2004.



I was a barracks ho sleeping with all his friends. He had a LuvSack...my friend asked to lay on his LuvSack, I asked to lay on him. He was advised not to marry me.
Oh well.

Can you do one of these for long term relationship couples? SO and I aren't married but we live like such, due to his ex having treated him like smurf in his previous marriage and him not wanting to get married again any time soon. And I'm sure there are others in the same situation....

Sure I'll make it right now!

We met my Freshman year of college in Sociology 101, we both went on to become Sociology majors and took the bulk of our classes together. He sat in front of me and we got paired up to work on a project together. After we finished our project we remained friends and study partners. He asked me out on April 25th 2003, we walked to Wendy's near campus and then went to a movie. We have been inseparable every since.

Justin & Krystal
Married April 22, 2011

We met my Junior (his Senior) year of High School when I got sent to live with my grandparents. We sat together every day at lunch and talked all the time but I was too afraid to hook up with him because I thought he would just stop talking to me since he was the biggest player in the school. At the end of the school year a couple of weeks before his graduation party I was spending the night at his cousin's house and her dad was having a party and he showed up. We were both really drunk and ended up hooking up for like 10minutes until his uncle walked in and totally busted us. After that I moved back to my parent's house and we completely lost contact for 4 years. In August of 2010 I went back to Ohio to visit my family for a few months and I ended up finding him on Facebook. We started hanging out and hooking up but we were strictly friends with benefits because even though we loved each other's company, neither of us wanted anything serious since he was leaving for Basic Training in November and DS1's dad had just left me for my best friend. October 16, 2010 we were hanging out at his brother's house drinking and in the middle of making out he asked me to be his girlfriend because he was afraid I would start dating someone else and he would lose me again, I said yes. November 10th I was court ordered to bring DS back to Wisconsin because of the agreement I had signed with DS1's dad and on November 21st I was getting ready to take DS1 to his dad's house and Justin was on his way to Basic Training. He ended up texting me and asking me to marry him, I again said yes. On April 22nd 2011 we got married in Maryland while he was at AIT. In October 2011 he was honorably discharged and he moved to Wisconsin to be with DS1 and I, and on April 11th 2012, 11 days before our 1yr wedding anniversary we found out that we were pregnant with DS2. He is my best friend <3

Jessica and Bob
Married March 21st, 2009
Together since Nov. 15th, 2004

I was in College at the time (all girl College) and one of my suite mates was dating a guy that worked with Bob. I was about to go into the computer room and saw her working at the front desk of our hall, so I stopped to chat with her. Her bf was in the area working and came to visit her and he had Bob along with him. She asked if I wanted to go with her and another friend to their hotel room to hang out, so we all went. I kept noticing Bob would stare at me and then when I would look at him he would turn away. Then we left as it was getting late. The next day she was on the phone with her bf and they were talking about us and saying we thought each other was cute (pretty much sitting us up). A few days later her and I decide to drive to the town where they were working (about a hour away) and that's when we hit it off. We watched a movie that night, hardly spoke though, we were too shy at first, lol. And it went from there. We now have a 14 month old son and another LO on the way due end of May.

Us on our wedding day

Jacob and Brianna
10/8/11

We actually met through my dad. When my dad was in the Navy, he was sort of Jake's boss (my dad was his superior in the division, he was the LPO). All the guys hung out outside of work and Friday nights were poker nights and I went with my parents one night and met him there. We played beer pong together and he was mortified by how bad I was haha. Fast forward 5 years. Mutual friend's of ours were being stationed somewhere else, so I went to the going away party and Jake was there. I always thought he was hot, and add in all the booze...things happened haha. We've been together ever since
