Married people of Reddit, what's your love story with your SO?

I hijacked my husband's account for this one...

My husband and I met nearly eight years ago. We grew up in the same small town, went to the same schools, and even had a lot of mutual friends. We are seven years apart, so our paths didn't really cross until I was in college. He moved back to town my sophomore year of high school, and my best friends met him playing open mic one night. The next day both of them told me about this guy they thought I would be be into. Fast forward a few years and I am home for the summer. I have another friend telling me how I should really meet the lead singer of her band. We go back and forth for a few weeks, and i finally agree to meet up with them at the bar. I get to the bar, my friend is no where in sight. I see two guys who look pretty chill, so I ask if I can sit with them while I wait for my friend. We start talking and I am immediately crazy about this guy. I have genuinely never felt so connected and attracted to anyone in my life. Next thing I know it's two hours later, my friend shows up apologizing profusely about how late she is. She says "oh, so i guess you met "so and so." So I start laughing, because she hadn't told me the guy's name before now, just 'the lead singer of my band." The night continues with shots of anything and everything followed by "Hey come back to my place, I am having friends over and we are firing up the hookah." I love hookahs, and I am really into this guy so I go over. I walk into them loading the hookah, what I didn't realize was he had just loaded it with pot and topped it off with apple tobacco. I had never smoked pot... I sit down and take several huge hits because the first two I didn't taste apple. It just tasted really dry. I am on my third hit when he stands up and is like "OH SHIT, THAT'S POT." because at the bar I told him I didn't and had never smoked pot. His sister was over and ended up helping me change into his PJ's and a tshirt, because I got sick. I wake up in his bed the next morning mortified. He is snuggled next to me on top of the covers. As soon as I woke he asked if everything was ok, and if he could get me anything. I was really embarrassed and asked if i could brush my teeth, I started to get ready to go, went to give him a kiss, but ended up back in the bed having crazy awesome sex. We ended up meeting up any chance we could after that. This was in June, we were still exclusively seeing each other in late Sept., but he refused to call me his girlfriend, because of our age difference. So his next show I show up in a sexy little red dress. He can't take his eyes off me, after his first set he pulls me aside and says he is wants me to be his girlfriend. I laugh and tell him we can talk later. We have been married for seven years March 15. We have two children, and while things have been crazy, we are still madly in love.
