Default Your other half

I wonder where did you meet your other half? Is there any of you met her/him in a trekking trail? I would love to hear about that if you don't mind to share.

technically I met mine online. We participate in an annual writing challenge where you try to write a novel in a month (Nanowrimo.org). I was trying to get some of the local participants to all get together for a party. She helped me organize it. A year later, during our next writing challenge, we hooked up.

Before we were dating, we did go on a backpacking trip, and we also camped out under an overpass during Hurricane Ike.

I met my better half online, in a free web-browser game! We dated out of town for five months and we camped twice. Even though he's of Chinese descent, we share a lot of things in common.

I met mine through my sister-in-law at her place of employment. Not sure if a vets office counts as wild or not.

Wow, I thought I was the only online dating success story. I hate telling people we met online, but it's true. I would have never guessed in a million years I'd even date someone I met online, but to marry them is even more hilarious. I'm really old fashioned and that's why it's just so funny.

I met my boyfriend at my cousin's wedding. I was a bridesmaid and he, a wedding guest (invited by my cousin's groom). We had our first dance together at the wedding reception then he asked for my number.

I met my wife through a mutual friend. We both kinda looked at each other at first meeting and went ..."uh, oh". Many of our dates involved the outdoors and enjoying what Ma' Nature had to offer.

A few decades later and still going strong. She shares many of the same interests as me and our birthdays are just 1 day apart. She's the only person I know that can take an unsplit log and actually get it to burn. I don;t know how the heck she does it.

The only thing we really argue about is how to hang a tarp

I met my husband online but one thing that drew us together was our love for outside and the outdoors, he is way more into it than me but he is bringing me over to the other side as I learn more about it.
