maggsmaggs Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Thought this would be pretty interesting since as they say you never know where you'll meet her or him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSqwert Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 (edited) At a burlesque show at Fizz on Lincoln Ave. It was a mutual friend's birthday and a large group of friends went there to celebrate. EDIT: She was not in the show. She was one of the people that met up to celebrate the b-day. Edited April 20, 2010 by BigSqwert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I went to at least 4 weddings there in my time in Cdale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlaSoxxJim Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Students in grad school together, although she was from the wrong side of the tracks as it were. She was a Biological Oceanography major while I was a Marine Biology major. It's utterly amazing we were able to find enough in common to bridge that huge divide in academic interests, I know. We actually didn't start dating until more than a year later. I was supposed to be meeting a different girl out at a bar but I had car trouble and had to hoof it so she left before I got there. My future wife was sitting at a table with friends and the seat next to her was empty so I sat down and we went from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthSideSox72 Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Best friend's little sister. Knew her from like age 10, the idea didn't even occur to us until a camping trip in our twenties (that her brother was also on). Apparently she doesn't mind guys who haven't showered in a week. I'm a lucky man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
