Spinoff--Age when you met/dated your spouse

[tigercat]

Oh my I made a mistake. Our 1st dd was born when I was almost 20 not 19. I would have been pregnant before getting married. That would not have been good as my Dad would have shot me LOL.

We met and started dating at age 20, and got married at 25, hoping to have our first kid before we're 36.

I love the story about the desk in math class

We do, too. It's how we remember that we are definitely made for each other

That's funny, my DD will be 11 in on July 13th. My nephew's birthday is oon the 14th and I will be turning 33 on the 15th.

Ah, "all occasion week" I see. That's what my aunt (who is 11 years older than me) put it. The week of June 20 to the 24 are celebrations on that side of the family, mostly bdays. DH responded to my aunt via face book and said, "Wow! September must have been one busy month!"

My husband's cousin introduced us at the local college hang out. He had just turned 22 and I was a couple of weeks shy of 22. We met on Valentine's Day. Once we broke up for less than 24 hours and have been together since. We celebrated our 31st wedding anniversary on the day after Christmas.

Met my husband on my 18th birthday. My girlfriends and I were up at a cabin at the lake and the girls whose parents owned it, her boyfriend and some of his friends crashed it about 2am. My (now) husband kept talking to me but I wasn't interested as I was already engaged. We met up again at a party about a month later and he knew a co-worker of mine as well. I couldn't get away from him.
I worked at a bank at the time so he would come in on Fridays. I'd hurry to do my transaction so he would have to come to my window but he'd always have a friend go in front of him.
Finally one night I called him up to ask if he wanted to go out with a group of us.
On our second date we went to a mall and we bought a little ming tree that was about 4" tall. We still have it, 30 years later. Oh, and I broke off my previous engagement.

[HSXJedi]

[superme80]

Met when I was 26 DH was 34.
Married when I was 27 DH was 35.
DS #1 was born when I was 28 DH was 37
DS#2 was born when I was 30 DH was 39
DS #3 will be born when I am 33 and DH will be 41.

 

[DeaverTex]

Let's see.

I was 24 and Mrs. Tex was 25 when we first met. Neither of us were impressed, but we kept bumping into each other.

We started dating when we were both 25, got engaged about 6-8 weeks later. By then, we were both impressed, and our friends just assumed we were a couple anyhow. I was 25 and she was 26 when we got married, and Tex Jr. was born 13 years later. Only three years of that delay were intentional.

We'll be married 37 years this August, so I guess it stuck.

 

[OKWMom]

My husband and I were in the same fourth grade class. We grew up and married other people. We met again in 2005 at the ages of 38 (me) and 40 (him). We dated for five and a half months before getting married. Our eighth anniversary is next week.

 

[Silly Little Pixie]

Met my DH at 17. We started dating at 18. Engaged at 21, married at 22 (right after college graduation). First child born at 27, second at 30.

Married 21 years this August, and together now for 25 years!!

 

[indimom]

Known each other basically all of our lives, but the first I really remember him is Kindergarten. I had a thing for blondies and thought he was cute.

I had a crush on him for most of grade school. My BFF's mother has a coffee table in her basement that still includes my childish SBMB scribble on the underside of the table top. I told her that if she ever decides to sell it, she has to give it to me.

We "dated" for a little while in middle school, but he dumped me for another girl. Not sure what he was thinking.

Started dating seriously at 19. (By this point, I had a thing for guys with dark hair, and his blond was long gone. )
Engaged at 20.
Married at 22.
First Child at 24.
Second Child at 27.
We've been married 18 years this August, and if you count dating, we've been together over half our lives now. I'm happier than ever.

We met in First Grade. Went all through school years sometimes in same classes but no communication otherwise. Graduated HS in '68. Re-met in '72. Engaged in '72 and married June 2, 1973. Just had a 40yr anniversary cruise celebration with DD/family and DS's boys but no DS or DDIL because ARMY has them, again.

 

[PigletsPal2]

That is so sweet that you met at age 3!! Were your families friends with each other? he never had a chance

His family lived down the street from mine in a newly-built post-war community (we're old!) and our mothers were lunch ladies together at the elementary school we and all our siblings attended. His younger sister and I were (and still are) friends, although she's a year younger than I.


DH told me many years later that my parents tried to warn him that he never had a chance, but he didn't believe them because I was so young. He learned his lesson!
