Met at school/work
I met my girlfriend (soon to be fiancée - I'm sure she has no idea this site exists, so the surprise will still be safe) in 1999 at the university where we both now work. I had graduated and took a job in the office where she was still a student worker. She was in a relationship at the time and I never really thought about asking her out. When she finally graduated a few years later she moved back home and was working for about a year but we kept in touch and I let her know of a job opening in my office, which she interviewed for but did not get. Well, another office actually saw her resume and asked her in for another interview a few months later and she got that job. We started to run into one another every once in a while during our lunches and soon started going to office outings together and eventually it all led up to where we are now.
Now, in two months I'm surprising her with a trip to Chicago for her birthday (I've secretly cleared it with her boss already so I can really surprise her a few days before we leave). Plus, I'm taking a ring along and have 2 or 3 possible proposition spots planned depending on weather and time of day, etc. (I'm a bit of a nerd when it comes to planning).
Anyway, thanks for the mouse giveaway!
