Before you and your bf/gf got together...

...what happened? did you meet up one-to-one or in a group beforehand? and how many times, etc. did you talk regulary via text or msn? did you like her a long time before it happened? so basically what i want to know is that kinda thing.

Why does it matter :confused:

Obviously everyone is different and would like to assume they do/did things differently or according to whatever suited them

You seem to have a problem with what a lot of people post here, seems a geniune question to me.

Back on topic met my current girlfriend at work, started going to the pub a few times got to know each other more and i guess the rest is history.

I didn't say it wasn't a genuine question. All i asked was why it mattered? Obviously, like you said you took your girlfriend out to the pub etc...so its gonna be different for everyone else, obviously. Not unless the OP is asking for suggestions for first-dates etc i think my question is fairly valid :rolleyes:

My boyfriend and I met through a mutual friend (who we no longer like or see) and then my boyfriend started a christmas temp job at the place I was working. We met up in a group for a few times first and then after that it was mainly just the two of us. It made breaking the ice easier.

Was introduced by a friend in passing... he joined a big group of us on a few nights out. I broke up with my then-boyfriend... got in touch with him over the holidays via texting and MSN and then when we got back to uni, we got together on a night out with everyone, having just toasted singledom!

boyfriend and I met through a mutual friend, went out as a group (my friend, her bf, me and my now bf) a few times. Got together about a month after that. it was funny really because I remember telling my friend that nothing would happen with us, and she was wasting her time trying to 'set us up'. And now 2 and a half years later were still together :p:

i met my girlfriend at a party then talked over MSN a lot, met with a group of friends and then met 3 or 4 times more, twice on my own twice with other people. I think it is pretty important that you do meet them on your own so you get an idea of what it will be like

my boyfriend added me on msn, and we started chatting.. mind, he added me on msn about 4 months before we got together :p:

we also used to go swimming and stuff with his friends and my best friend (who is his sister) and yeah.. we flirted shamelessly every time!

I met him on Match.com.

Bear in mind, I'm old and wrinkly (nearly 26 :eek:

) and extremely disillusioned about dating. Hence, having moved around the world to a smallish town, and no luck meeting anyone vaguely nice, and workmates had had luck with it, I gave it a go.

So, three weeks after chatting to freaks, geeks and wannabes I get a lovely email from a lovely boy who I'm now seeing.

I worked with a girl who was going out with my bf's bro. Therefore met bf through them. We all used to meet up with other people round someone's house. I didn't see him for nearly a year and then he txtd me randomly and we started txting loads and then about 3 months after we started txting we started going out.

met at an std clinic .....
no seriously, in a pub and she had been refusing to let my mate walk her home, so I tried to persuade her (and failed). Met again a few days later, all took off from there.

I was going out with his mate, who I worked with. Only met now-boyfriend once during my time with then-boyfriend, at a huge party, so we just said hello to be polite and never thought anything else of it.

Me and then-boyfriend split up after 3 months :rolleyes:

but continued to go clubbing together in a group of workmates.

6 months later, now-boyfriend goes to the meet then-boyfriend in a club, I am there too. Now-boyfriend is hot, asks me out for a drink sometime.

Four and a half years later... :love:

vaguely knew him as one of a friend's group of friends, said hello to him in a pub once and but he's really shy with girls so we just nodded at each other. didn't think anything of it, i had a boyfriend at the time, although apparently he told his friend i was looking at him a lot..ha. he texted me a few months later saying he beat my friend at darts (running joke), although i didn't have his number so didn't know it was him.

pulled him at a party about 6 months later when i was hideously drunk, had a great night then when i had to go i said "but i don't have your number!!" and he said "yes you do". the next day i got a text from the same number that texted me before and i clicked. we texted for a few days, met up about twice the following week and from then on we were an item :smile:

He's a friend of my best friends boyfriend! There's a group of boys who we socialise with occasionally and he's one of them, we were in a Wetherspoons one night (me and my mates and him and his boys) and he started talking to me and asked for my number. Then my best friend and her boyfriend started arguing as we walked back, so it was just me, him and another boy walking way behind and waiting around for them and we got chatting as we waited for them to finish arguing and so I could grab my friend and go home. My friend gave him my email address the next day and we text for a bit, and chatted on MSN occasionally, and then we saw eachother in the same social group a few times, then he asked me out for dinner and we went for a walk, so met up on our own only 2 or 3 times before he asked me out. The rest is history!
