11 Amazing “How I Met My Spouse” Stories
8. “We had such chemistry that the people running the auditions thought we were an actual couple.”
“My boyfriend and I met at an audition for a web series that was a a modern-day take on Romeo and Juliet. We had such chemistry that the people running the auditions thought we were an actual couple and asked how long we’d been together. We both booked the project and really got to know each other as the filming progressed. We’ve been together five years now and I still find it hilarious that our first kiss was on camera.” —Sequoia, 31
9. “He always says that choosing to miss his flight to talk to me was the best decision he’s made in his life.”
“We met at the airport when I was wearing no makeup (I usually never leave the house without it), old workout pants, and scruffy sneakers. We first met at airport security, exchanged a few words and had some fun banter, and then said a polite good-bye. Nearly two hours later, when he saw me again at my gate getting ready to board, he approached me again. I found out months later that he missed his flight by coming over to talk to me a second time and get my number. We’ve been together for a year now and he always says that choosing to miss his flight to talk to me was the best decision he’s made in his life.” —Jessica, 29
10. “To this day, we don’t think we ever spoke one word to each other during four years of high school, but we have certainly made up for it since.”
“Anthony and I met at our 10-year high school reunion at a bar. There were only 14 people who showed up to the reunion, so it gave us an opportunity to talk with people we never interacted with in school. To this day, we don’t think we ever spoke one word to each other during four years of high school, but we have certainly made up for it since. We’ve been together for 5.5 years now.” —Jessica, 33
11. “He liked the way that the cucumber soap I was buying smelled and turned around to ask me what it was.”
“I met my husband in a grocery store. He liked the way that the cucumber soap I was buying smelled and turned around to ask me what it was. He had the best smile. The next week, my roommate invited me to go watch a folk singer he’d met who was performing at a coffee house and it turned out to be Michael. We have been together for 23 years and married for 18.” —Dorie, 48
