    I met her in a pub, she was a friend of a friend. Maybe that poll should have been multiple-choice. We're together six months now and everything's great. :)

    i really didn't think it was so common for people to meet their other halves online..
    i suppose boards isnt exactly an impartial judging ground for that though...

    I suppose you'd say we met through friends and in the pub. I got talking to him in a club one night but only because we share all the same mutual friends. Strange so that our paths never crossed before January. Glad they did though, he's fantastic!

    well now...saw her on my sisters bebo, thought she was stunning so I started sending her comments and bebo mails, and she seemed interested too. My sis then gave me her number so started texting a bit and getting on quite well. then she went to canada for the summer, didn't really talk at all, thought it was the end of just a bit of fun. Anyway she came back, and to my suprise we started textin again and I was growing very fond of her, so took a gamble one december evening, met up with her and went ice skating, going out 6 months now, couldn't be happier...God bless bebo!!

    through friends - very very very early but heres hoping something might come of it

    meet my ex through a girl i meet when travelling in Oz, she told me all about her friend and how much she loved him, so she came to stay with me in dublin one weekend and he came along and it was lust at first sight, we lasted 2 years and now i am not friends with either of them :D
