Title: Valentines day topic for the romantics
Post by: stump66 on February 13, 2005, 05:36:45 AM
Well this may just be for the ladies but I don't think I am the last romantic.
How long have you been married and how did you meet?
I am now 43 and I met my wife when I was 15. Now days thats an eternity. Her mom gave me my first job and tried to fix me up with her sister but I fell for her because she was a tomboy and liked riding dirtbikes like me. I started when I was 6. We have been together ever since and have had our trials and tough spots. I don't know how I would have made it this far through my current condition without her sticking by my side. We have 2 great boys 15 and 4. We got married in 84. She is a great girl and I wouldn't trade her for any other.

I really doubt that cuz they see your city, your bikes are at anymore risk than mine. If they want them, and you have not taken proper precautions, they are gone anyway

Grizz, THAT IS FREAKING HILARIOUS! I spit my coffee all over the computer screen when I read it. My anniversary is also on July 3rd, for the exact same reason, so I would never forget it.

Daphne and I were major Gear heads in the late 80's early 90's. it was not uncommon to see My hopped up monte carlo ( oh ya I was a chevy guy one time) stomping every mustang I could line up against. I met Daphne at what was then Super Shops. I then noticed Daphne while she was rollin with her then Boyfriend  Steve in a 72 Chevelle. one day Steve rolled up without Daphne. I happen into Pep Boys to buy some more gear head stuff and low and behold there is Daphne as the cashier. I asked her out and we have been together ever since.. 2 great boys and 3 ATV's later I have given up the entire street racing thing. I still have her 65 Convertible Mustang V8 with a few mods. dont think that will go anywhere anytime soon. buy the way for those who dont know Daphne is Harley _Honey on the site

I'm a romantic too!

I met the love of my life on September 27, 2004 at a local quad dealer. I know it's only been a few months but something tells me we have many years together in our future. I wouldnt be the same person without her.











sorry I just realized this was about girls and not quads! ;D Let me try again.

I met a girl at a bar one time! The end :(

im a romantic from the word go! my wife chased me down to ask me out then new years night 2001, i asked her to marry me, she said YES and its only gotten better since.
our 1 year anniversery i bought her 365 roses and wrote a song for her that i had someone sing to her while the roses were being brought to her.
our second anniversery i had myself ups delivered to her job in a waterheater box and gave her 730 roses which were hand written on paper because i could not afford 730 real roses like the 1st year.
last valentines day i made her a 30ft long 3ft tall sign that said happy valentines day and a 6ft long 3ft tall sign that said I LOVE YOU!
we wont even get into the love for the quad thing

  I met Mike when we were 19. When I saw him the first time I thought :o "OMG , he is gorgeous". He had really long blond hair, which was huge thing for me at the time LOL. When he came up and talked to me, I couldn't believe he even noticed me. We talked and played pool until 3AM.
  Well...he was just out of a bad relationship and I told him that night that "I bet if we got married right now it would last longer than that" I thought he was going to call me crazy, but he didn't. 3 days later I moved in and got married shortly after and been married 7 years on April 14.
  I knew the first time we talked that he was the one  [smiley=Heart.gif]. Go figure [smiley=Wacko.gif]

 He says he knew I was the one when I offered him a floor ticket to an upcoming (SOLD OUT) Metallica show the first night we met.... ;D ;D

         ;D In the summer of "72" my family moved into a new place, and i met the 'boy next door'. He was 18 and I was 17. We talked alot and had things in common, like the outdoors, movies, music. He got the nerve to ask me out and our first date was at the drags (Sunshine Speedway), when he went to put his arm around me, i turned to say something and POW,his elbow gave me a bloody nose he was sure i would not go out with him again! We married on August 8, 1973 and have been enjoying offroading from railbuggies to quads, getting muddy and dirty. We have a daughter, now 24, who has grown up loving the fun. So much so that her fiance is going to get a quad! We still love each other and offroading now as much as we ever have. And we have met many good friends who enjoy it too. Happy Valentines Day !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to know if I am wrong my wife bought me a seat cover for my new truck for Valentine's day and she bought one for her truck too. So should I have to buy her a Valentine's  day present or should we be even . This morning I told her that her seat cover was her Valentine's present she was just about to kick my @ss so i told her my ribs were hurting I needed bengay and I could not find it so she went to bathroom and found that I got her a Pair of diamond earrings. I guess I am not in the dog house now.

So I dont think I should have had to go out and buy an additional present when it was even steven but I did not want to sleep with my dogs. It's just not fair.

I forgot to mention that her seat cover cost 250.00 and mine only cost 109.00

What do U guy's think?

The Grizz has sunk to a new low...... spare no expense for the one you love (or in your case, the one who owns you) and it pays dividends... even a guy divorced twice knows that, you cheap bast@rd... ;D

Well here goes my tail
I met my better half in  October 87 at the local circle K, we used to hang out there, she was 16 and i was 18.. we dated until 1990 then got married and then in 91 our boy/my other best half  ;D was born.. We have had our ups and downs threw the years but i would not want it any other way... Everybody said that we were not going to last being that we were so young but here we are 17 years later still going strong...
Our interest have been the same threw out the years, I used to fish alot and she would be up every morning @5:30 to help load the boat and even back the trailer down the ramp..
And she had no problem with me going with the boys for the day..
Check this link out : http://www.citicom.com/~cbandl/fishing/index.html

we both love the water and anything that has to do with it.

Also now with the quads she and i both enjoy the outings together no matter where we are, camping,riding broke down ;D or even at our local riding area just watching my son...
Im sorry guys but i have the best women out there ;D ;D
(in my world) ;D

Oh and happy Valentines to all the other ladies out there.
You deserve something special today...

Here goes  ;)  I meet Jeff when I was 12 he was my brother's best friend, we started dating when I was 15 and we got married when I was 19  [smiley=Heart.gif] "July 2nd 1981" No kids, we were always on the go every weekend, always something....he was a drummer for 30 years and I was at every gig helping him set up/tear down and keep an eye on him  [smiley=Wink.gif] He gave it up a few years ago and now we get to ride our 4-wheelers on the weekends[smiley=ThumbsUp.gif] But we have always done everything together...I think that is the key to a LONG Marrage ;D

Saturday Night we had 2" Steaks on the barbie sitting by the camp fire with wine and homemade chocolate covered strawberrys in the middle of the woods  [smiley=ThumbsUp.gif]

hey GRIZZ you did real good. But I think you couldve just reimbursed her for her seat cover and called it even.  ???

I have been dating this girl and we decided to not buy each other anything for Valentine's Day and we would just do something together instead of blowing money.

then I bought roses and a bear and a card........you think I'll be in trouble when she gets them??  ;D

I think you did the right thing too. Even though you agree not to buy anything for Valentine's Day that only means her buying you a present, U still have to buy her a present, they expect it. No matter what they say.

see there's the difference between married life and not married life DR!! married folks buy realistic gifts and us bachelors have to out do the competition.

if I bought her a rose bush at 18 she'd think I'm nuts.

A guy I play softball with surprised his wife with two songs from a female quartet at the ball park last night. Boy did he make the other husbands look bad!!

Hey GRIZZ believe me I've already learned that lesson at 21. I had it planned all along but didnt want her to out do me and buy me something nice ;D.

p.s.  she was mad about the roses but she'll get over it!! :P two points for me!!
