Yeah Rene!!!! Who says only men get to do it. I'm seven years older than Khalid and everybody thinks we are the same age. BTW I got carded at a restaurant the other day when I ordered a glass of wine. It absolutely cracked me up. I was old enough to be the waiter's mother. Then he didn't card my sister (she's 42) and she got all indignant. That cracked me up even more.

Hello,

Erm...don't know if people are still interested in the original question. I came in a bit late!

Paul and I met in the Tenacious D chat room. Not a place you would expect to strike up a lasting relationship! I was living in Wales, UK, and Paul was in Hartford, USA. We are both now in Hartford USA and happily married.

Best of luck to you with the Visa process, Sibsie!

Ooooooopppppsssss........
I didn't mean to hi-jack this thread. Sorry.

My husband's sister lives in the U.S. and is a good friend of mine. She introduced us (gave him my address). We wrote and e-mailed for a while, it didn't take too long for either us to figure we weren't going to stay "just friends" for long.

Hey, considering women are supposed to be at their sexual peak at what - 30? And men at what - 20? So in reality it would make sense for all women to have younger men!!

Default Re: How did you meet your SO?

It's interesting how many people met their partners online.
Well, I'm not and exception. :-)

Me: Slovakia
Bill: US

I met Bill in a chatroom in 1998 by a mistake (he thought I was somebody else because our nicks were the same).

We met in person in summer 1999, when I got a summer job in the States.

Then we haven't seen each other for 2 years, although we stayed in touch as friends.

In September 2001 we met again....in February 2003 Bill proposed and we got married on October 25, 2003.

We filed for AOS and now we are waiting......grrrr.

I am 42. Dekkie is 32. He has a baby face, which clean shaven is frighteningly 20's in appearance. He is under injunction never ever EVER to shave off his beard.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Khalid looks about 12 years old without a beard. Luckily, he hates to shave so he'll alway opt for a beard, even a goatie reduces the shaving a little bit.

How funny. I have a goatee and the only time I'm allowed to shave it off is when I wont be seeing Sandy. What is it with you women and facial hair. Last night we were on the phone making wedding plans and one of her big requests was that I grow back the goatee before the wedding. Forget the wedding vows and guest list.

As for the original question, Im 35, Sandy is 29 and we met in a Mexican restuarant in mid-town Sacramento (Cali) almost 3 years ago and have been insperable ever since. (except for this time going through the K1 process)
Me = UK
Sandy =USA
