POLL: How Did You Meet Your Fiance(e)

[Cry_Tuff 0]

Whenever someone here where I live asks me "How did you meet your fiance if he still lives in England" (like it's really a no brainer ) My reply is of course we met over the internet, on a chat/forum/download site that both he and I frequented..neither of us was looking for love...he seen my pic, sent me a lovely message, and it went from there...blah, blah, blah...)...Anyhow, I always get that "OHHHH...the internet eh?" Like everyone you meet over the internet is suppose to be a serial killer or something

Curiosity has got the better of me, so I've created this poll to find out...am I really that alone (not that I think I am...lol... just wondering the statistics

hmm, I guess I'm just 'old fashion' by not have meeting online. . . the 2nd question isn't even applicable to me because I didn't meet online, but had to answer it or else it wouldn't take my results. We met at work while I was here on an internship. . . and the rest is history

Is the third question how long after you met in person or general?

[TimsDaisy 0]

Yes, since we met in person first ("other" category), I couldn't answer the second question, so it wouldn't take my data on the first and third questions!

We met in person, accidently, whilst he was here on an extended holiday.

as no rule bars ex-K-1 petitioners...

1. I went to India for LEF Annual Retreat in 2005, and we met-in-person there
   
2. Never met on INTERNET, but did have correspondence by letters/phone earlier
   
3. We had engagement ceremony immediately after Annual Retreat (from which I used pics for petititon)

Couldn't vote on the second option either.

We met while we were both living in a third country, so "other". Engaged about a year and a half after meeting...

We met while I was on vacation in "HIS" country.

3 months later I went back to visit him

13 monts after meeting we got engaged

We met in intranet... our company internal website had some info that had something I was looking for missing, so I looked for the author and found his details, then opened a chat to ask ...

Interesting how most people, so far, have said they got engaged the first time they met.

Personally, I'd find that hard to do....................but then again................I guess when you don't have much opportunity to meet, considering each person lives halfway across the globe...............you have to make quicker decisions, and things have to be done a bit differently than if they met in the USA.

I wouldn't have known that's what happened with so many of the people on this website , if it weren't for this poll.

I didn't vote, since I met my wife here in the USA........and a lot doesn't apply to me.............but find the results informative, and learned some things I didn't know before.

I can't vote as there is no option in the second question for those who didn't meet on the internet

[Welshcookie 17]

We met in my country (UK) but didn't start dating for some years from our first meeting, we mixed socially though.

I arrived in her city on Feb. 12th. I had to speak with her mother and the family on Feb. 13th to get their blessing of marriage first. I waited until 12:30am on Feb. 14th to propose. I, at least, gave it a couple of days!
