Almost read this as "he brought his hubby!" Now it's my turn to get my mind out of the gutter (ask Janet!)erinb said:I went to visit my mom in NC, my older brother was in the Marine Corps, stationed only 3 hours away and drove to mom's every weekend. He brought his buddy (my DH now)with him while I was there. Six weeks later, I moved to mom's so I could be closer to this awesome guy. I was only 18 at the time, but just knew he was the one. It's been almost 13 years since we met and we'll be celebrating 11 years of marriage in July.

Of course, he dated quite a few of those types and all the time his parents kept saying "she's not for you..."

I met my husband in the driveway. I was renting an apartment in an old house, that had a series of garages behind in. He was renting one to store a car. My friends and I had seen him the past Christmas out cleaning his car, but seeing that I am not a car person, didn't pay him no mind. October rolls around, I am coming home from the grocery store and he pulls in behind me. Thinks he hot cause he has the flashy red car! Yeah, right!! I was not impressed, more worried about my chicken defrosting them him.
He left a letter on car the next day which I did not pick up until Monday morning, thinking it was a letter from my landlord. When I finally read it, I shared it my with girlfriend. She was working in a federal crimanal agency, so, just to be safe, she went ahead and ran his criminal check, driver's record, anything and everything she could to see what she could find out about. Then we checked the phone to make sure a woman didn't answer. After all that, I finally called him, we went out to dinner that weekend. That was in 1988. We were married in 1991. 17 years this May... my how time flies.
FYI, I was 31 when I met him, and wasn't looking for a man. And BTW, he still has that car.

His older brother kept teasing me and DH would save me a seat on the bus to "protect" me.

This is a question that many people ask when they find out you are in a relationship. For me, I actually met my significant other at work. We both work for Pampered Chef and were introduced through a mutual friend. It's funny how love can bloom in unexpected places!
In this digital age, it's becoming more and more common for people to meet their significant others online. However, in my case, we met in person through a mutual friend. But I do know many couples who have successfully found love through online dating sites and apps.
As mentioned before, my significant other and I were introduced through a mutual friend at work. This is a common way for people to meet, as friends are often eager to set up their single friends with potential love interests. Don't be afraid to ask your friends to introduce you to someone they think you might hit it off with!
There is no one "best" place to meet someone. It really depends on your interests and lifestyle. Some people have had luck meeting their significant others at bars, through hobbies or activities, at church, or even through mutual friends like I did. The key is to put yourself out there and be open to new experiences and opportunities. Love can happen when you least expect it.
My advice would be to focus on yourself and your own happiness first. When you are truly content with your own life, you radiate a positive energy that can be attractive to potential partners. Also, don't be afraid to try new things and put yourself out there. You never know who you might meet or where you might find love. And remember, being single is not a bad thing. Enjoy this time to discover yourself and what you truly want in a partner.
