  Kindle love stories or to watch romantic movies.

  relationship almost every couple is asked "So how

1. Love at First Beard

• I met my husband at a gay bar. I looked at this
  guy with this beautiful beard and I thought, Im
  going to marry that man.
• It was the WEIRDEST thing! It was like every bone
  in my body directed me toward him. Time literally
  SLOWED DOWN! I walked over to him and said, Can
  I touch your beard?
• That was February 2008, and we got married in
  September of that same year. Seven years later, I
  have never doubted for any moment that I married
  my soulmate. And I know how lucky I am. Can you
  imagine? I LOOKED at this man, and some weird
  force that is so much more powerful than myself
  moved me to him.

2. A One-Way Ticket to Love

• The first time I saw him, we were sitting at the
  gate for our flight to Chicago. I remember
  glancing over at him and thinking, Oh, wow, hes
  cute. When I got to my seat, I saw that the seat
  beside me was empty and thought, How awesome
  would it be if he sits next to me?
• A family in his row wanted to sit together so he
  had to take the empty seat beside me. We spent
  the entire flight discussing everything.
• He asked for my number we went our separate
  ways. A few months later, he sent me a message
  Happy New Year. We hit it off like nothing ever
  changed.

3. Fainting in Love

• I met my longtime boyfriend at an autopsy of a
  heroin addict. I fainted and he offered me
  crackers and it has now been five years and we
  are still happily in love.

4. Wanderlust and Wander Love

• I met my American husband in Alexandria, Egypt.
  He was traveling with some friends. We met in the
  hotel lobby than we went out to dinner that night
  but I had to leave the next day to go back to
  Cairo. But my return trip had been delayed by bad
  weather.
• Two days later were on the same bus! We had an
  extra six hours to get to know each other. We
  were long-distance for the next year and a half,
  then I moved to America.
• We got married last year and are still blissfully
  happy! You never know where youll find the one
  youre meant to be with!

5. The Lhasa Apso and the Silver Fox

• One mild February Texas night, I left the door
  open because I was waiting for a late date to
  arrive. While I waited, an adorable Lhasa Apso
  ran into my apartment, followed by an equally
  adorable silver fox of a guy.
• We talked forever. Two months passed until an
  actual first date, which was the WORST either of
  us had ever had. Long story short, we were
  engaged five weeks later and married in March, a
  year after we met. (The other guy missed his
  chance. I cant even remember his name.)

6. Laughing With a Broken Car

• My car broke down during rush hour I was
  standing helpless on the sidewalk looking
  desperately at my car. All I could do was laugh
  it off.
• He saw me laugh from his vehicle and asked me why
  I was laughing if my car broke down. My
  answer? I have two options Be upset or be
  happy. I chose to be happy and laugh. So he
  pulled over and helped me with my car, and we
  became really good friends.
• Two years later, we finally realized were in
  love and looking forward to laughing off our
  problems.

• My husband and I met at our karate studio in
  2002. I was 10 and he was 15.
• We trained in different age groups but knew each
  other most of our lives. We both black-belted and
  became instructors and that is when we started to
  get to know each other. We got married last
  December!

8. Online Romance Outside of OKCupid

• We met online, but not online dating or any means
  of hooking up. We were both battling with
  depression, and we found each other in a chatroom
  for those looking to talk to others.
• It started from talking to one another in the
  chatroom to sending private messages whenever we
  saw each other online. It wasnt until we
  exchanged Skype information that we started
  talking daily for hours on end.
• While weve yet to meet face-to-face, we video
  chat with each other and send frequent video
  messages as well as continue to chat daily.

9. The Couple That Sings Together

• We were both auditioning for roles in a musical
  adaptation of School House Rock! I was on
  crutches because of a devastating break-dancing
  incident, but I still got up and belted Greases
  Hopelessly Devoted.
• He followed my audition by singing Moon River
  and looking absolutely intriguing in a shirt. We
  both got the parts and spent the next few months
  getting to know each other while singing about
  the correct usage of adjectives and Im Just a
  Bill.
• The last night of the show he taught me how to
  stage kiss and that was it.

10. The One With the Coat

• It was wartime in Britain and they were in the
  same factory in Nottingham making IFF sets. One
  day a group of ladies who worked there came in
  late, still with their coats on and dripping
  water everywhere, and the foreman angrily ordered
  them to take their coats off. They all did,
  barring one.
• My grandpas friend went over to chat to them
  later, and then came back and said triumphantly
  Seven oclock. Saturday night. In the square.
  Youre going on a date! My grandpa, a bit
  nonplussed, said, OK, but which one did you
  ask? The one who didnt take her coat off, of
  course, she replied.

11. Do You Like Pie?

• It was freshman year of high school. I was
  sitting on the bus going home. Someone tapped me
  on the shoulder I turned around and there he
  was. He said, Excuse me, do you like pie?
• Out of surprise I blurted out, Yes. He then
  asked, What kind? I answered, Blueberry pie.
  He said thank you and turned around. That was it!
  He only wanted to know my pie preference.
• We started dating a year and a half later. Twelve
  years later we are married, and Im sitting next
  to my daughter watching cartoons -)
