When I went to college, I got out of fellowship fall term of my freshman year. Kinda messed myself up. After new years, I started going back to church and a couple I knew on campus went to this Assembly of God, which was as close as I could find to what I was used to. They found out I played guitar and sang so they recruited me for a special and the choir.

The AG has a talent contest for HS juniors and seniors every spring, the winners get scholarship money for college. Sharon entered the contest singing Kris Kristoferson's "Why Me Lord?" and was being accompanied on piano by the wife of the youth pastor. After a couple of practices, the pianist said that the song really needed a guitar accompianiment instead of piano, and she knew "...just the guitarist." Me.

We got married 3 months after I graduated college.

We met at a bar.

I was there with a friend, he was there with a friend.
He asked me to dance, I did, and we have been together ever since.


I met my hubby at a bar, too, only I asked him to dance!

We were married less than 6 months later, going on 25 years this year.

That is similar to m'love and I, except it was a contra dance and we were both asked there by the same friend. <> Needless to say, he was invited to the wedding.


The guy that was instrumental to our meeting was one of our groomsmen at the wedding.

We were in the same 3rd grade class. We were actually boyfriend and girl friend in 5th and 6th grade. Some friends set us up for our senior prom. We have been married for 16 years and have 3 kids.

I'm surrounded by wild women.


Baby Bar for me...
It was a "16-21" Disco (Yep Big hair, Angel Flights, silk shirts, and chains)
Can anyone say "Disco Inferno" GO John GO!!!!

I was dating another guy, he asked me out, I turned him down.
He showed up again 9 months later. I said "I'm not dating X anymore."
A week later he went into debt over a Lobster Thermadore dinner and asked me what we should name the kids?
Engaged in a month, and married in nine. 28+ years later and he still makes my heart sing and my feet dance; just not in 4" stilettos.

Blessings,
Melanie

Christian chatroom on Compuserve (poor man's AOL).

We met in May of 2001 in the chatroom and just chatted on and off for about a month. Chatting turned into e-mails, e-mails turned into instant messaging and instant messaging turned into phone calls. My mom freaked out a little bit (I was 20 and lived at home) but she ended up spending more time on the phone with him than I did! In all fairness, she was just trying to get a feel if he was a creep or not.

In August of 2001, Eric asked my dad, via phone, if he could court me. My dad said yes and Eric flew out to visit me in September of 2001. Two months later, he moved from St. Louis MO to California to be with me. We got married in July of 2002 and it's been the best 6 years of my life.

We met here on Crosswalk!!!!!!! We had been chatting for well over a year. But it was not until he was deployed in Iraq that we started talking more seriously. I then flew to Omaha to meet him in person during his R&R leave, then moved to Omaha shortly after he came home. We married 11 months after I moved.

..... we were introduced at a prison ministry event in Texas. (I was living in Indiana.)


I looked at him and thought, "Why can't a guy like that be interested in me?!"




..... he was.



Loved reading all the stories! Go God!!

We met when we were kids...kind of the boy next door sort of thing. He was a little older and I used to trail around after him. Then we got older and the roles reversed...lol.

I was at Tift Baptist Women's College. Jim was an officer in the Army. Tift required us to take 'Social Graces' and the girls were encouraged to go to the military base to attend their formal dinners/ dances to practice what we'd learned.

I was set up on a blind date with a very shy young man. I was also very shy. That didn't work out. My college big sister kept telling me about this guy she had double dated with, saying 'You'll just LOVE him!'

She set us up for the next event and we were engaged two weeks later, married 5 months and 3 weeks later...... 38 years ago this coming October 10th.

She was right!

Tift College!!?? Man, that brings back some memories... I grew up in Monroe County, drove by that campus everyday on the way to skewl, the old Mary Persons High building... without A/C.

My wife and I met in college too. Macon College, but I think it was Macon Jr back then.

That's neat Mel. I was there in 1969 - 1970. I lived in Perry from the age of 15 until I went to college.
