We met at work. I had just gotten posted in and DH was working in supply. I needed new boots and he refused to give them to me unless I gave him my phone number! (Yes, apparently blackmail works) Funny thing is, I didn't have my phone hooked up yet, and I told him so. He gave me this look and said "You could just say no, you know?" so I felt bad and gave him my email address. He showed it to his buddy after I left and he told him it was fake. (It's kind of a ridiculous address) So the first email I got from him was full of apologies and hoping that it was actually me!
Even though I wasn't looking for a real relationship at the time, we were engaged 4 months later. We've been together for over 10 years now
