How did you meet your better half?

I was rehabbing a rope horse that acquired an uneven way of moving after a full recovery.
Best friend suggested an equine chiropractor look at him - with pretty blue eyes (wink wink)
I made an appointment and another and, she fixed him. The rest was history... the horse, well I sold him to her aunt who used him until his rip old age for the forestry dept. patrols packing a little old lady up and down the mountain trails. He was sound and loved not roping for a living anymore. He may have gotten the better of the deal - lol.
Our 24 yr anniversary is next spring

My wife and I went to middle and high school together. We took a lot of the same classes together as there were only 59 people in our graduating class. She baby sat my little brother frequently and my dad thought she was great. However, we didn't see eye to eye on too many things and tried to avoid one another for most of our school years. She had lots of hidden stuff going on at home that made her seem cool and haughty and I had other interests at the time.

Then, about halfway through our senior year, our mutual friend started working on each of us individually and we wound up hanging out more. I fixed her car stereo and would pick up the aforementioned little brother from the daycare where she worked and we'd talk for a while. That turned into walks in the park and feeding the ducks at the pond. This went on for three or four months until prom was close at hand. I asked her if she'd like to go and she agreed.

A year later we were married and five days later I joined the Navy. The following year we had our first son (of five). That was 36 years ago. I thank God every day for her.

Got a call from my old HS friend, who was now living about 2 hrs away. Went to visit him that weekend, and met my wife at church, talked to her at church picnic afterwards, went on date that afternoon. I visited about every weekend that summer, till she went off to college in Nashvile that fall. We talked long distance, saw her at Christmas break, and then continued dating the next summer. She transfered to local college after that.

Now my son has had a hard time finding a good girl to date. So glad I'm not having to go thru that. Seems so many girls today have commitment issues.
