Tell us how you met your significant other.

I was wandering through the list of 'online members' on GaydarGirls and saw a very pretty girl. Clearly she was new to the site and her profile sounded interesting but I couldn't get over how pretty she was. I closed her profile and decided against messaging her as she was clearly out of my league. 

A couple of days later I saw her online again so I figured "why not? she says she's after new friends".. and sent her a message. She replied with a nice message and her email address. We emailed a few times and she gave me her number and encouraged me to send her some random messages. After one particularly thoughtful message from her on my last day of work, I spontaneously called her. She sounded lovely.

I called her one my first night alone on my roadtrip to Brisbane and we spoke until my phone ran out of battery. Then again the second night and for the majority of my final day of driving.

Then we semi-spontaneously met up on the Queen St. Mall. I panicked when I saw her and completely freaked out, wanting to leave but thanks to my dear friend, we actually got to meet and have coffee.

I went up the coast to have lunch with her the next day feeling calmer and more in control. She was clearly nervous though. I accidentally tripped over her while we were walking to lunch and she caught me and held my hand. All I wanted to do was watch her at lunch but she was clearly still really nervous and commented that she thought I was staring. We found ourselves holding hands as we were walking after lunch and when I found a secluded place (where we weren't going to be busted by retirees), I stopped, pulled her a little closer and kissed her.

We met up later that day back in Brisbane and to my surprise she agreed to spend the night with me, rather than returning to the coast. We spent the night snuggled in each other's arms. We spent the next day together and the following night, while we were out celebrating my household's new "Brisbanites" status, she asked me if I'd be her girlfriend.
