Hoo boy. My entire family seems to have lives built off of these (yeah, I'm living in a rom-com) so I'll limit it to the three absolute cutest.

My sister, a few years back in college, was bummed out that her boyfriend was going to be spending the summer up in the northern part of the state. We're in the southern, and short of a four-hour commute, there's no real way to see each other. She had spent the whole week moping and crying her eyes out. Secretly, he drove down to visit her, telling everyone but her so it would remain a surprise. She was sleeping when he arrive, so he slipped a glass rose under her hand, and gently woke her up. When she woke up, she didn't believe he was really there at first, because she had just been dreaming about him.

My mother and father met while he was working at a Greyhound bus station. He went up to talk to her because she was dressed all cute, readying to go roller-skating. When he asked for her phone number, she told him no. This being the 70s, he had long, unkempt hair, a Fu Manchu mustache, and was wearing a work uniform covered in grease to boot. Dad was persistent though. He asked three more times before she gave it to him. She wrote it on the back of a business card in her nicest cursive. Dad kept that card in his wallet all the way up until it was stolen in the late 90s.

I might add, when he arrived for their first date, he had done a complete 180, hair cut, mustache neatly groomed, and dressed to the nines. They've known each other over 33 years now and been married for 27 of them.

Last story happened to my paternal grandparents. Papa was stationed on a Marine base. Having just arrived from Texas and being very introverted, he hadn't really gotten to know many people yet. This led to the unfortunate reputation that he was stuck-up. Nana (my grandmother) had an older sister working on the base and had heard of Papa, but never met him. One day, when Papa was walking with some buddies of his, he turned a corner, and saw Nana standing there. She had come to visit her sister. As he put it, "Bam! That was it." True love at first sight. He asked her to a dance they were having on base that night. She told him no, because she didn't know him that well, and because of the reputation she had heard about from her older sister.

He persisted, so she eventually gave in, under the condition that he would find dates for her sister and cousin as well. She figured there was no way he could find dates in such a short amount of time. Papa said that was just the motivation he needed. He found the dates in time, so Nana went with him. They've now been together for 64 years.
