So a while back, I asked my IG community: how did you meet your significant other? There were so many responses and quite a bit of variety, so I thought I’d compile the answers, anonymously, into a blog post. In my early twenties, I definitely would have appreciated seeing a post like this – lol.
Here are a few different ways to meet your S.O.
+ Online, Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, POF
+ Introduction/setup via mutual friends
+ At work – my parents met working at a restaurant together.
+ At a casino
+ Playing in a sports league – this is how Kirby and I met!
+ Reconnected after high school
+ At a bar
+ At a fair/rodeo
+ While traveling
+ At a house party
+ On a boat
+ At the gym
I really think that the best way to open yourself up to the possibility of meeting your S.O. is to just do things that make you happy. I was single for a long time and looking for ‘the one’, but he didn’t show up until I stopped looking and just started doing things that made me happy. I also think that you have to open your mind up if that’s really what you’re looking for. Kirby was like no one I had ever dated before and if I hadn’t been open to something out of my comfort zone, we might not be in a long-term relationship with a daughter today.
