How did you hook up? met in a nightclub, my friend wanted me to ask his friend to go talk to her. I was left talking to him...

How long did it last? 3 years

Why did it last? we are so close, neither of us (even still) have friends who we feel as close to or share as strong a bond with. We have everything in common.

How did it end? very slowly, there were a multitude of break ups and make ups, and it was painful but not messy at all, because we care for each other so much.

I still think Ill probably end up marrying him in the end eek

I've know my wife all her life. Her mom and my mom were elementary school friends and kept in touch. We'd go visit them from time to time, but I hadn't seen my wife in over ten years, til mom suggested I give her a call to see if she would want to go out sometime


How long did it last?
we've been together 19 years, married 17 (in June) of those 19

Why did it last?
hard work..fights, tears..apologies..therapy..love

How did it end?

God willing it won't till she/I am taken away

How did you hook up? I went to talk to her in a record store. Actually I had stalked her a bit earlier. C'mon you HAVE TO stalk a woman a bit in order to be able to meet them giggle

How long did it last? On and off, six months. Mostly off though.

Why did it last? It didn't

How did it end? I found out that I wasn't the only one she was seeing, so I once told her she was "the most beautiful girl I have ever seen", the next time I saw her I look her into her eyes and told her I had lied. disbelief What a jackass I was. Yeah, sure she sort of deserved it and it's not like the biggest insult in the world to take if you really think about it ("well, gee, you thought you were?", but no wonder I've had trouble with women from there on. I still feel guilty over it.

We met in high school.

It lasted eight years.

Lasted 'cause we adored each other.

Ended partly because we grew up and changed, and partly because of my ex's mental illness and drug abuse. sad

How did you hook up - She approached me at a friends party.She claimed she had been giving me hints she was interested but i obviously wasn't noticing. Truth is a friend told me she was interested and i was just waiting her out until she approached me.

How long did it last? - Not even a year.

Why did it last? - Great sex.

Why did it end? - She was wanting it to become long term. So i started phasing myself out.

How did you hook up? I met him through my best friend.

How long did it last? 8 years.

Why did it last? He had an annoying habit of sleeping with other people in front of me.

How did it end? I finally broke it off.

We are now really good friends.

My wife - 26 years and counting
My best friend - over 30 years and counting

Both stories are much too long.

At this point i'm convinced that both relationships will only be ended by death.

How did you hook up? We met in a bar around the corner from my apartment one night when I really didn't want to go out but a friend talked me into going out for one drink. Our eyes met, the bartender gave us both Jager shots, and the rest is history. lol

How long did it last? Three years, though there were two years after that of on-and-off booty calls and failed making-up attempts.

Why did it last? Because we shared a lot of important things in common. Our sense of humor was very similar, we both had the same kind of asthetic at the time (scrungy east village alternafag), we complimented each other very well, and we had fun collaborating on writing projects together. And we had fun bickering. I think that's always very important.

How did it end? I got tired of his drunk foolin' around ass and left him.

Your longest lasting relationship? 10 yrs this August- (Aug 16,1996)

How did you hook up? worked together- he had a tragedy in his life and I had just gone through a divorce

How long did it last? Just shy of 10 yrs- we split after dating about 5 yrs then I came back...

Why did it last? Good friendship, lived well together without ever fighting or communicating

How did it end? I am still in that process- we lack passion and the kind of love that husbands & wives share. We have lost respect for one another- growing apart, finding that I need things that he cannot provide- I am unhappy but afraid to break his heart!

We were neighbors who hit it off.

18 years.

No idea why it's lasted. It was only supposed to be a short term thing. Opposites attract?

Time will tell how it ends. I have no idea which of us will die first.

How did you hook up?


We were friends of friends, started hanging out together...

How long did it last?


6 years...

Why did it last?


It wasn't meant to, I knew that from the start. But I fell for him & made "adjustments" to make it work for as long as it did (didn't realize it @ the time but that's what I was doing)...

How did it end?


I got tired of said "adjustments" & as I came back to being myself we grew further apart... rather, I grew further apart from him - he didn't do anything wrong, I should never have changed to be with him b/c those changes/adjustments never last. So I ended it, it was just simpler that way. We still love each other but we just don't work as a couple...

It lasted 11 months. Ive not gone out with a girl for longer than that. Id love to but there's always complications. Mine and theirs. Im no saint. Id love to settle down sometime soon but Im a lot more picky than I used to be. Ive been out with some lovely girls and not got together with some who Id have loved to but for whatever reason weren't interested.
