I met my dh in class, but we didn't talk in class, we started talking in the chemistry dept computer lab while working on lab reports late at night. The only girlfriend he had before me, he met online. I had a lot of boyfriends, met most of them in class/school. One at a party. But it was a nerdy party. I actually approached him first because he was wearing a U2 shirt and I was (am?) totally obsessed w/ U2. He was a hottie, though. which means cute and nerdy. :P EE major. ;) Dh and I both graduated in chemistry. He's almost done w/ his PhD, I stopped after the B.S.

I met my man in a car club. Lol. There are two major clubs here for Subarus (REXnet [Rex being the verbal pronunciation of WRX], and ClubSub). I was very quickly renowned on REXnet for my 'non-turbo WRX' - an Impreza HX20s undergoing some MAJOR work. On ClubSub, there was a similar story...an infamous HX20s owner that got as much s**t as I did for having a non-turbo Impreza.

I crossed over onto ClubSub too on a whim (membership in both camps, lmao) and bumped into the other HX owner on my Welcome thread of all places. We pretty much dominated that thread bouncing backwards and forwards for a few pages, and proceeded to spend the next month or so talking non-stop and spending stupid amounts of time together :lol: He was a bit of a celebrity there, and I looked at him as such at first...

After a month or so we finally gave up pretending to be just friends and started talking dirty. It only took one comment for things to explode and booya, we slid straight into a relationship. He instigated it too, which was rather unusual for him.

I found out about a week or so into it that he was an Aspie. That certainly made things interesting and explained why he was as obsessed with his Impreza as I was with mine! :lol: We're even more infamous now because we're the only HX20s owners on the boards that make any presence of themselves whatsoever, and moreso, we happen to be a couple :lol: It's so fairy-tale...

:o But the Tribeca is the one that they hit with the Ugly Stick over at Gunma till it broke!! :lol:

You have goooood taste in cars though...still...the Tribeca's a people-mover, not really an SUV (though it does have the AWD doesn't it...that's good enough)...why not get a Fozz? :) They certainly sound better.

Unfortunately, they don't sell the Fozz here in the U.S.

Noooo! The boxer-powered fridge is awesomeness! That's insane, the US missed out on all the best cars :( (We all know the GC8, v5 and v6, were the best EVAR!)

I never look for a relationship, mine just happen. I met my partner in a pub as our meeting was arranged by a mutual friend of ours who wanted us to meet as he felt we would get along and be friends. We became a little more than that lol.

Hi! I met my boyfriend at the college we both attend. My boyfriend has Asperger's Syndrome like me. Our relationship started out as a friendship and then it grew into romance. I was hanging out with him often and people at the school were almost always asking if we were dating, but we both said that we were just friends. I really liked being friends with him, but I also secretly liked him and I didn't know if I should tell him or not. We both decided to date each other because one we were already hanging out a lot, two I really liked him, and three people assumed we were dating anyway, so it made sense that we start dating. I love my boyfriend and every time I am with him I feel happy! Don't worry you will find someone someday who likes you for you.
