How did your parents meet? Options

[xj_liana_tx]

my parents don't really like to tell me about their teenage lives because they think my mind is poisoned. Anyways, so once i cornered my mom and i kept asking her how her and my dad met, and she finally gave in.
well my parents met through their teacher, my dad's teacher recommanded mom to dad, and they went out. Pretty boring. My dad said that he married my mom because of her intelligence, even though they have completely different personalities and they always fighting.
How did your parents meet?

[melface]

Why do you care how my parents met?

[Nicolatofu]

[inthemudhole]

Through the internet.
It was pretty primitive at that point, though..

[Shattered_Hope]

A friend introduced my mom to my dad..

[sunissed14127]

My mom was a waitress, and my dad came in, and my mom was his waitress. after a few days, my mom went into where my dad worked, and saw there was a job opening, and quit her current job and started working with my dad. My mom later asked hi out, and he wasnt reall sure if he wanted to date then. He finally gave in, and they've been together ever since.

[jr0h]

my mom was a popular girl in high school. my dad was a good looking dude. they met up. dated. waala. i now pronounce you husband and wife.

[Shorty435]

my parents met at college...yeah...I know, boring....but they were close friends and gave each other advice in relationships.

[*stephinika*]

[silver-rain]

well, they were in college. and my mom and dad were always competing to be the best, and it was alway my mom first and my dad second. eh, then they started dating and got married

[teeners4]

my parents met a downtown vancouver. they were working from restaurants across from each other. apparently my dad was a ladies man and my mom was a player. so they thought the other one would be a challenge and that's how they met

[smthngcrprategrl...]

[gvoxford]

[sharerol]

My mom's friends introduced her to my dad near the end of high school or so.

[hi-C]

My parents lived across the street from each other growing up. They started dating in high school (he's three years older than her and when it was time for her prom, he took her his dress blues because he was in the Marines) and got married after she finished college. They had me 16 years later.

They had an arranged marriage.
They divorced after 2-3 years.

[*islandgirl4eva*]

My parents met in high school. My dad was 14 and my mom was 16. My dad used to be a player, but from the very moment he saw my mom, he knew he was going to marry her. I hope I find smoething like that.

[SarahxJoy]

My parents grew up in the Philippines, and they were in private schools so they didn't meet each other through school obviously.
Instead, they met through church. They attended the same church and my dad asked my mom out and I guess the rest, is as they say, history.

[sweetdreamsx3]

[inlonelinessidie]

My parents met on a double blind date. My mom was dragged into this but she had to go on the date because her cousin didn't want to go alone. Turns out my mom's cousin's date was my father and my mom got another fella'. After the date was over my mom was crushing on my dad, but didn't say anything. The next day my dad calls up my mom and asks her out on a date. Bada bing bada boom, few months later my brother is born. LOL.

[angel-roh]

In bible school. My mom asked God what her plans should be for the future. And God made my mom dream about getting married with my dad. She dreamed that more than once so she prayed and prayed that she will wait until my dad goes to her and propose her. And finally, my dad really loved my mom... my mom didnt force her. she didnt really like to be with guys that much because she was busy teaching students how to play the piano well. but my dad really loved her and proposed her. they knew since the last 3 years before their marriage or I think it was more than 5 years hehe.

[chanleythemanley]

I've heard the story about 1,000 times. He saw her when his best friend and he were over at her house to see her older sister. He though she was good looking and asked her to homecomming.

So They are highschool sweethearts. *gag*

[BeyondElite]

I just asked my parents how they meet. Okay, here's how it goes. My father's family owned a hospital in Pampanga called Birhen de los Remedios Hospital. My mom was hired there to teach nursing to other people interested to work as a nurse in that hospital (Yes, she is a nurse, and a nursing teacher). My father saw my mom, teaching, and went to the office to look at her address. My dad mailed my mom a love letter, and it worked. However, my mom's dad works in the army, and doesn't want anyone to take my mom, yet. My dad went to my mother's house, well, outside of the gate. My dad was asking my mom out, but my mom's dad doesn't want to, so he hold up a gun. But until my grandfather noticed that my father is so in love with my mom, he finally agreed to let her out with my dad. Then they got married! They still have their love letters, laminated. I keep reading it, because it's too romantic. So.

[racoons > you]

my mom was my dad's best friend's little sister

they were childhood sweethearts.

aww

[banthisaccountno...]

They met in some bar. So romantic...

[me1issaaaa]

My mom remembers seeing my dad when she was about 12 or so sitting int he car and he parked next to her (he was about 16 at the time.) Years later, I think a friend set them up. She didn't like him, but she went out with him to make some other girl jealous. Heh heh. I guess they kind of grew on each other... and here we are today.

[cocoalightning27]

WEnt to the same college in China..............yea not very romantic...

[SKDMNLE]

At a Christmas party, I think.

[sammi rules you]

i have no idea how my mom and my dad met, but my mom and her boyfriend met over the internet.

[*mzkandi*]

My Mom first met my Dad when she was 10 and he was 20. Their parents stayed behind each other. When my mom was 18 they started dating and got married when my Mom was 20 and my Dad was 30. The end =)

[Jihea_Pak O_o]

My parents met on a double blind date. My mom was dragged into this but she had to go on the date because her cousin didn't want to go alone.

[*RockizLife*]

my parents met over the phone. She was in Ohio and dad was in Florida. They both worked in the airlines. They had to talk to each other to give traffic reports and all that airport stuff and they "liked" each other voices lol so they started talking. Dad was working for the Fed ex airlines and he'd catch a plane up to Ohio and stuff and she would go down to Florida. so yea they "hung out" or whatever they called it back then, and one time mom was in Florida, dad came down from some flight in the north and since it never snows in Florida, dad brouht down a couple of trash bags full of snow from where ever he was and he started throwing snowballs at everyone and everyone in the whole terminal stopped to have a snowball fight haha in Florida! the whole terminal stopped opperating. Thats when my mom said she first knew she loved me dad. haha, i like my parents story

mom and step.- he asked if he could wipe the flour off my moms butt. yep

[*yours_truly*]

Well I don't know how my mom and biological father met...

but my mom and stepdad (who might as well be my real dad) met at work when my mom was still married, but seperated, to my biological father. He had kept asking her to go out but she always said no cause she was still married. After they got a divorce, she finally gave in and went out with my stepdad and fell in love. Sweet, huh? lol.
