How Did You Meet Your Current Partner/s?

How I met my Partner

I read one post of someone meeting their partner on e-harmony, ahhh the joys of on-line dating.
I met my hubby D at the age of 19. I had just come out of a horrible relationship and my parents decieded that I needed to get myself out there.
I made a profile on J-Date. He was the first to look at my profile and email me. When we starting chatting he was visiting family on the east coast and I told him he could call me if he liked. He did.
When he got back to Az, he emailed me at this time I found out I was 9 weeks pregnant with my ex. I was afraid of starting a relationship, so I said we could remain friends, we talked on the phone for 4 hours. We were friends for two days before he drove up to meet me. Since then we became inseperable.
In three months after the baby, I plan on moving in and becoming his wife.
sex, between us is very trusting, and because of this trust I have asked him dom and he's done a incrediable job.

Hubby and I met in a Japanese Language class in Tokyo. At the time I had a boyfriend, in Italy, with whom I had been together for about 6 years (with some off times). My now husband was still married to his first wife, but having trouble in their relationship since before the coming to Japan (and surely moving to Japan was not making things easier...).

Anyway, when I walked into the class and saw my now husband for the first time ... I heard my best girl-friend voice telling me to be careful as I would fall in love. Of course I didn't pay any attention to it. I mean, with my then bf things were going well, and I found out pretty soon that my now husband was married, and that in itself took him off the map. So, basically we were just class mates. Went out drinking with the whole class a couple of time, but that was it.

When I went back to Italy, I found a very nice letter from him, telling me that he felt a sort of connection with me and wanted to be friends. I was still trying to get a proper reply together (my English then was not like now) when I got a second, more shocking one in which he basically was telling me that he was very unhappy with his wife, that he felt I was the person meant for him. It shocked me, but I somewhat understood what he was feeling.

I couldn't say yes, but it was not a no. So I put together a nice letter (with the help of my best girl-friend, the one of the voice) and told him that we didn't know each other well enough yet, so to just get to know each other first. For the following 6 month we exchanged letters, talking about us, our relationship, in a sibling like way (no flirting or innuendos).

In July I was planning to go back to Tokyo to continue studying the language. And early in June, I finally broke up definitively with my than boyfriend.

The funny coincidence is that right after I broke up I got a letter from my now husband telling me that he wished me good luck with my bf and my life, but that he was going to break up with his wife.

We met up again when I got to Tokyo that summer and we knew right away that we had finally found our soul-mate.

All this happened almost 15 years ago.

We met in a chat room, a long, long time ago.

 

[Miki647]

He was a bus driver, and I was a passenger on his bus every day. One day he asked if we could talk, and so we did, every day, for the whole length of my ride. Months later, he said that he was about to change bus routes, but that he didn't want to lose touch with me. He asked for my phone number. Later that evening, he called and asked me out for our first official date. By the end of that date, he had made plans for a second date....And that was almost eight years ago.

I met my current partner through a friend (tho we also went to school together I didnt know him well then) a couple of exes I met in high school and one guy at university. Im not very good at meeting people, I've tried online but I tend to get very shy about messaging people and chatting and such.

 

[ApprenticeApril]

Ours is actually a pretty funny story, but it would take forever to tell it, so I'll just skip to the punchline.
I was buying drugs from him.
We ended up as roomies and I couldn't help but sneak into his room to fuck him silly.
Over a year later, we're still together, and learning how to switch (we're both subbies)
I would love to be collared, but it would have to be a mutual thing, not quite to that point yet.

She answered my personal ad on Lit.

Little did I know that one reply to my ad would change my life forever.

How we met..

Wow, looking back to how we met.... A friend of mine and I had an account as a joke on CM to be able to check out some pics of someone who posted on there... One afternoon after my at the time Dom, just up and dissappeared on me with no warning... no fight no nothing.. I was surfing the internet and I wasnt planning on anything.. I ran across DS picture and his ad... I just sent a simple quick reply ( I wasnt trying to hit on him, I honestly wasnt) that said he had a nice smile.... He very nicely replied to me with Thank you, but where is your picture, I told him ehhhhh too much drama hence no picture.. He replied with everyone has Drama..... I sent him back a message saying is that so? and offered him my YIM name... He responded in a IM and it was on from there I think we instantly connected in a way Id never connected to any other person before in my life, soon in that chat we were divulging information we wouldnt tell our best friends but it felt right.. I shared a few pictures and the story of why I was on the east coast and the rest of my family wasnt... and we were inseprable... WE chatted for hours that first day... and he actually told me he wanted to meet me that day, I told him I couldnt do that just yet I needed time, He very nicely agreed and we chatted every night that following week we finally agreed to meet for dinner and see how the chemistry was if it was still as strong in person... So we both drove to meet in the middle at the time we lived about 3.5 hours from one another.. I drove there and we talked on the phone the entire way getting to know each other WAY better than we had... I got to the restaurant first and was NERVOUS as all get out// ( but recently found out so was he, he just didnt show it) and We had dinner that night... after Dinnerwe spent the evening together and he asked me to be his pet, that was 6 months ago.. and we are still going strong.... He is MY Sir and I am his pet.. and I am glad we met...

I have Lit to thank for her.

Her personality caught my eye and attention.
She captured my heart.

The rest is all over the boards.

 

[notalwaysweak]

We met at university in 2003. I was in an abusive relationship, smoked, drank, self-injured and had a suicide plan. Within a month of meeting him I'd left my abuser for him, and now we are married and he is learning more and more about being dominant.

I met my guy at one of the munches I attend regularly.

Our friends helped push it now i'm happy ^^

When we first started dating, I had no idea my SO was even interested in D/s.

He was in my theatre company in college. We made out a few times at cast parties, but eventually he got a girlfriend and I become engaged.

A few years went by, and I became very close friends with his sister.

I broke off my engagement, and had just made a *huge nerdy disclosure alert* Dr. Girlfriend cosplay dress (from the Venture Bros.) for a Con I was attending.

She found out, and emailed me a photo of my future-SO wearing his homemade Monarch cos outfit from another Con.

True Love.


After we fucked for the first time, we were having awkward chatting in my bed.

It was vanilla sex--hot and delicious--but vanilla.

I tentatively approached the subject, and sort of told him "Well, I like x,y, and z."

He almost leapt out of bed. "Really, I love x, y, and z."

And then he bent me over, gripped my throat, and we really had fun.

Sometimes nostalgia hurts....
Curious as to how many of the original posters are still around?

I counted four on the first page. So some are still here.

I've thought about writing up an abbreviated version of our meeting in a Lit story because people always say it's the strangest meeting ever. He's been my pillar to lean on from Day 1, and has made me laugh every day we've been together since Day 2 . B was driving the car behind me when I was in a very bad car accident and the guy that hit me drove off. B followed for half a block and got the license plate then returned to the scene with one other witness and kept me conscious until the ambulance came. I got his number (along with the woman who was the other witness) from the police/insurance witness reports and called to say thank you while still stuck in the hospital. He stopped in that afternoon to visit and we hit it off instantly but were laughing so much the nurses kicked him out (not before he asked me out once I was feeling better though!) I joke that he did because he'd seen me at my absolute worst and it had to get at least a little better from there, but he insists it was the paper-thin gown and nips from the Arctic-like hospital heating that motivated him.

He was into BDSM before me but I wasn't into it (or so I thought!) but he claimed he was ready for a break from it when we started dating (I had NO idea it was such a big deal to set aside but I've given many, many 'thank you' BJs once I realized and will give many many more). Now that I've given it a shot, he says he knew I would get curious about it someday and would like what I found. Four years, he has the patience of a Saint.

LOL, a few of us are still here, and more are lurking as I have been doing moer often than not for quite awhile. Regardless though, a thread such as this has use whether those who originally participated are still here or not, and it can still be added to by those who weren't, especially the poll.

Wow, that was an unusual meeting, and once again proves it can be about being in the right place at the right time, paths crossing and all that. It is these little things which make life that little more interesting and enticing.

I suppose what I was really asking for were updates from the posters. I've noticed a few of them also post in the Dear X thread and it made me curious.

Took the poll.
Met my current partner in a Yahoo chat room back when users could create rooms. She pmed me commenting about the pic in my profile and now we've been together over 6 years.
That's the short version of the story...lol

 

[rida]

Guess I should up-date my entry! LOL

I'm still happily married to Hubby, with the up and downs than any long term relationship have.

Right around the time I wrote my previous entry, I had just started seeing the Sadist and we have now been seeing each other for over 2 years.

I met him via an advert I posted on a local website/free-paper. Even I did not know what I was looking for, and yet his first message was so perfect that I thought it was Hubby pulling a prank on me, as nobody could write a more perfect answer to my inner questionings.

Before that I had an intense but short lived on-line relationship with a Dom I met on Lit (he contacted me via PM and we clicked immediately). I had to end the relationship as I realized I could not give him what he needed and deserved.

One is all it takes, when it's the right one.


I met Mr online too. I joined a particular personals site just to perv on a profile that someone I'd been chatting to elsewhere had linked to, then decided I liked the format of the site and filled out my whole profile.

And things went pretty much as normal. There were some messages you delete outright, some people you exchange a few messages with, others you email for months without ever really organising to meet.. then there's the ones you do meet. The downright rude, the pleasant yet no chemistry, a couple of hook ups.

And then him.

There was an instant connection there, and for 2 people who weren't looking for love, we've fallen pretty hard.

 

[RuReal]

Married my play partner first then got into BDSM after. We did meet online and one of the little things that attracted me at the time is she was interested in some of the bdsm things I was interested in. It has taken a very long time to get to where we are now, but so much fun.

Guess a few of us have made online work for us in the best possible way.

Good point about updates....we have just celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary, which I am sure still baffles a few (especially family) given we met online through a D/s site, knew instantly it was something special, then met in RL and married a couple of weeks after, which was then followed by my moving to the other side of this beautiful planet to be with him. As with all relationships, there are high points and low points, and as I was reminded recently, since we began our relationship, we have had to deal with a lot of unavoidable life events which shook either one or both of us, but through it all we have stuck together, worked out the wrinkles when they happen, and above all built an incredible relationship based on trust and love. We are committed to this for the long haul no matter what life throws at us.

I met my Man at work 10 years ago, he was with someone else (he was bi and was with a guy) and we just clicked as friends, I even asked him once if he ever wanted children to which he replied "Yeah Course"

He told me he really liked me and I said it back, but we knew nothing could happen and I was fine with being friends.

Anyway, his releationship ended, he moved away for a year and when he came back it was like *BAM*

8 amazingly happy years later, I have said child who he "Yeah Course" wanted with him and we still can't believe we had a child together, we say it was written in the stars

As for getting into the D/s side of things, I read a series of Gay BDSM books (I only read Gay Romance stuff) and I fell in love with the Dom, I mean the guy was just HAWT and Gay, nothing is better in my book but yeah, I asked my Man about it and he said No straight away, he didnt want to hurt me, even though I wanted him too, I'm not a pain slut but I can definitly see the advantages of a well places slap or stripe anyway, a Munch was coming up where I live and I went alone because he couldnt make it, and after that he Joined Fetlife and had a look around, all simply because I was getting into it and he was worried I was going to find someone to play with, I never ever would have though, If I couldnt do it with him, I wasnt going to do it at all, after having a look though, he decided that he wouldnt mind having a go, although he wasnt all that convinced that I would submit to him, but when he gives me the 'look' I'd re-tile the roof of the house if he wanted me too

We talked about it and he spoke with a good friend of ours who is a Dom, he got some tips and we went away for a weekend and 'played' and the rest is kinky history.

I've never been happier, I've never felt sexier...I never thought it could get better with him, but it SO is.
