I met my husband when I was 17, in a coffee shop where I worked. I was an alcoholic and hung around a really bad crowd of people. We started talking about everything under the sun and eventually I began to see that there was more to life than I was living. We became friends and I began to drink less booze and more Tim Hortons Coffee.
One night when I was out with my "bad" friends I was slipped some bad drugs, a girl who knew that I was a friend of his intervened before an unconcious me was "assaulted" and had me taken to him.
That night he sat up with me as I was suffering the rise and fall of the drug. Then the following afternoon when I was hungover and feeling like the walking dead he gave me a good talking to. It really opened my eyes. That was 9 yrs. ago. I have been sober since.
We were married just before my 23 rd birthday and we have three beautiful children. We have seen a lot of hard times together but our love has only grown stronger.

Awwe that's really cute! I don't see you as a baby. Well, I met my husband when I was 23 and he was 25 - in Japan (we were both English teachers there). We dated and moved in together after 4 months of knowing each other. 9 months later we got married in Hawai'i and lived there for 7 months, and 3 months ago we moved to his hometown of Toronto, Canada. I am 25 now and he is 27. He is my best friend and couldn't ask for anything more then to be a great wife to the greatest husband. Thanks for giving me an opportunity to share with you our little history. Good Luck to you and how nice is that you two are waiting to make love until you get married.

My husband and I met in the Army in 2005 in AIT which's training for your job you will be doing.We met when he was 22 and I was 21 and here comes the crazy part for most!! We dated for a little under 2 weeks and married within that end of the two weeks. Yup, we just knew we were meant for each other and it wasn't lust or physical.We just connected SO well that we are ALOT alike and he was is so sweet country boy charm gentleman.
We have been married for two years in April and we are expecting our baby in May.
We have had an awesome relationship and it keeps getting better :)We have had our tough times don't get me wrong but that makes you stronger.
For insance my hubby got sick in Janurary 2006 and it was stressful to see him in so much pain.In and out of hospitals 3 times and finally they found out what was wrong.He's better now but he will have his condition for life.It has put a strain on things but it really made us closer. Now we know for SURE that we will be together no matter what life throws at us.

I was 19 when we met. Were friends for 2 years before deciding to let intamacy "get in the way" and possibly ruin a great friendship. We took a gamble and won. Been married 10+ years, hit some rocky roads, including infidelity on both of our parts, but extremely extinuating circumstances for both, another story, survived that and still going strong.

I've known my husband since I was about 8 or so. I was best friends with his sister and we started dating when I turned 16. I was 20 when we married almost 7 years and 2 kids ago. We are still happily married. We also are Christians and were pure until marriage. I know that is difficult but well worth it. Keep God in your life. Marriage is hard but He makes it easier.

I've been with my husband since I was 17 years old (now24). We met when I was waiting tables at a popular restaurant. Him and his friends were frequent customers of mine!
Good luck with the whole saving yourselves for marriage...I wouldnt reccomend it because if hes small or bad in bed guess what you are stuck with that forever. Yes there should be more to a marriage than sex...but if you dont test the waters you will always wonder. My husband and I werent virgins when we met we had already did our water testing! Good luck to you thought!

Met my husband when I was 20, within a year we were married. It has been seven years, and we still cannot get enough of each other. When you know someone is the one for you, you just know. Before I met my husband I was with someone for five years, and had my doubts, but when I met my husband, my eyes were open. He is the love of my life!
