How did you meet your mate?
I met my husband at an "Irish Pub" (we're in the US). He was there with friends celebrating a promotion and I was there...just because. I probably wouldn't have talked to him if it weren't for his friend who engaged in conversation so I'd stick around.
Do you feel like it was kismet?
The night we met, no because I thought he was too good for me.

Did you know immediately, that this was your "other half"?
Not immediately, but after the first date I was pretty sure. We had to stop at my mom's for her Christmas party because we were going to the city she lived in and I'd promised her I'd drop in. (Poor guy had to meet my mom on our first date!)

Did you perhaps feel just the opposite, at first, and only come around after a while?
See above
Knowing what you do now, would you change anything about that beginning?
The only thing I'd change in the beginning would be my own insecurity with relationships in general. It worked out though. We learned quickly.
