Hey Ladies,

  I feel like so often we get to know one another a little here online but not well enough. A Vintage page I am apart of on Facebook did this and it was really fun!

  Your significant other can be your partner, your husband, your wife, your boyfriend, your girlfriend, your children, your pets whatever it is share it! Tell us how you met or got this significant other, why they are so special and how do they deal with your fashion obsession with PUG and Pinup related goodies.

  I will start with mine. 

 This is Josh.

 We met at a Horror Convention over 2 years ago, his Blue eyes and bone structure got my attention. Though I obviously scared him because I literally had to wave him down and go talk to him as every time I would get close to him he would run off. It was hilarious and I still tease him about it to this day. We totally hit it off and it was a whirl wind relationship with its ups and downs, break ups and make ups. We are still together today and he is my best friend. 

  People often think we are brother and sister because we are built the same, have dark hair, light eyes, cheek bones and big lips, but we aren't... maybe we are just a tad narcissistic. We are both artists and have a passion for film, so he understands my obsession with fashion and clothes. Though he finds it hard to deal with how much stuff I have, and how little I get rid of things. I have an entire room dedicated to my clothing, design and make-up that he helped me paint, so I would say he is supportive. 

  We are currently engaged, with no date since weddings are expensive and we both have to save. This is my significant other, until we finally get a dog ;).

Me and my boyfriend met 9 years ago when we were both 18. I took an instant dislike to him and did so for a few years until i decided to "give him a chance" as it were. I discovered he was totally different underneath the "jack the lad" persona he had portrayed on nights out and we found out we had a lot in common music/films wise.

We also had the same group of friends, so it made it convenient to see and get to know the real him . I think we were both 20 when we finally realised we weren't just friends any more. It was 7 years yesterday, It's definitely had it's up's and downs, but honestly hasn't felt that long at all! He is my best friend and as much as my friends and parents aren't always too sure of our decisions or my lack of female friends i wouldn't want to be with anyone else, So right now we're looking for a house and engagement/marriage isn't on the cards just yet because as Micheline said it's so freakin' expensive! I am desperate for a dog though and can't wait till we get our own place to share with one :)

I don't have a recent picture of us together only older ones though :/

This is such a fun topic to share!! I love seeing everyone's stories!

I met my "Prince" at the castle inside the Disney Store in Santa Monica. He was working there at the time. He says that he was attracted to me because of my unique look. We hung out that night and have been together for almost two years now. He is the sweetest and most loving person I have ever met. It is so refreshing to finally find someone that is your best friend, you're partner and truly know that you are loved for who you are. There are always ups and downs, but we work through it because we are both worth it to each other. I don't really have a family so I found a home in him. Which is wonderful feeling to have. Jonathan loves my vintage style and my hobbies. He loves that I'm creative and a complete geek. And I'm happy I get to show him all the things I like to do. I even took him to the Pinup Parade at Disneyland you guys had! He even is willing to dress up in costumes and go to conventions with me. He supports everything I try to do and never discourages me. We actually have a small amount in common, except the deeper moral things (and Batman). So I guess for us the opposites attract! He is more the shy "straight man" and I'm the social whimsical butterfly. But together we are an entertaining slap stick comedy team!

I met Charlie in my design class at University 4 years ago. I fell in love with him instantly and secretly harboured a major crush on him for around 2 years. During that time I didn't see much of him until just over a year ago. We became good friends and one day he said something really sweet to me so I confessed everything to him. A few weeks later, we got together. He is the most amazing person and such a gentleman. I never thought I would be loved by anyone and I was pretty bitter towards the idea of love because I was a pretty ugly kid in high school. ~And so, I could not be more grateful to have met someone who is so much like me. He loves that I dress up, and he supports my PUG love. Out of the two of us though, he is more fussy about clothes and especially his hair. Charlie is also an amazing artist! Take a look at his stuff (newcalibre.com)

Funny story, before I started dating my boyfriend I was hanging out with his younger brother a lot. I really thought I was going to start dating his brother because we both had a crush on each other, but it never happened....So a year later, I met up with Noah (the older brother) and we hit it off right away. We took it slow and stayed friends for several months, but finally we started dating January 20, 2007. I have been dating him since I was 14!!! Thats pretty young, but I feel he is the one for me and he is my very best friend. We have definitely had some ups and downs, broke up a couple times (for like 2 days haha), and we bicker with each other all the time, but thats what couples do. And i love him with all my heart!!!

^ First Picture together rockin Social D shirts and sittin in the back of a C10

He loves everything i love! Surfing, music, pinups, hot rods, classics, movies, beer, rock climbing, I could go on and on! oh and he plays guitar (thats hotttt!!)....Although sometimes he does have a bit of a problem with my love for PUG, I forgive him. I know I go a little overboard with the buying of clothes and what not. But he never complains when im all dolled up!!

Ive been through a lot with this guy, I even moved my whole life to live with him in hawaii for a few months(huge step in the relationship)!!Now we are back in Sandiego and our relationship is stronger than ever. I couldnt be more grateful to have him in my life! We have been together for 5 wonderful years and I know we will be married some day!

Oh and we have a wonderful doggy named Chakka! He is the most handsome bow bow in the world with the most hilarious personality I have ever seen a dog have!

Oh this is fun, I love reading about everyone.

So my boyfriend's name is Charles aka Chuck aka OMG SMARTY PANTS WHY DO YOU TORMENT MEEE. We've been together 6 years this October (we actually argue about the date lol) and we met...playing World of Warcraft! He was a warrior and I was a druid. It was love at first heal (actually not really, I let him die multiple times to get a point across hah). At the time we met I was just coming out of a relationship and didn't really want anything so we just talked for a couple of months, and then we noticed that we were talking more off the game...at like 3 am. Eventually we decided to just see if something would work, he lived in Michigan and I lived here in NYC so I flew out there and...boom. 2 years later we both stopped playing the game and he moved out here and we've been together ever since. There's a bit of drama since he's white and I'm black and his family is sort of not happy about that (my mom loves him though) but we love each other so that's all that matters I suppose. He's very much the yin to my yang, I'm the more nerdy/geeky one of the couple, he's the more stoic reserved type. I'm willing to flail in happiness, he just nods his head and grin. He's lovely though, he randomly grabs my hand and kisses my fingers, is not bothered when I wake up screaming from a nightmare, deals with my neurosis and lets me try different types of cologne on him. He's also not bothered by different bits of fake hair now haha!

He is alternately horrified and in love with my PUG purchases. On one hand he thinks I look amazing in them, on the other he's all "I HATE WHEN OTHER PEOPLE LOOK AT YOUR BOOBS!!!" lol. I told him if PUG start making stuff for men it's on!  We plan on getting engaged/married at some point but part of the issue is he is absolutely against a tiki wedding and I sort of  REALLY want one. This is the only good picture I have of us, we both dislike picture taking immensely lol but we were at a wedding and looked somewhat decent. I told him if they do end up putting my grandfather's play back on Broadway we'd have to suck it up and take nice pictures!

I met my fiancee when I was in band in the 7th grade , we lost touch during high school but reconnected 4 years ago and turned what all our friends deemed to be a one night stand into a really beautiful relationship. He is my strength and encourages me to always put my best foot forward.

Hello everyone! Such lovely stories.

My name is Carla and my story started when I moved out of my hometown to study. Even tho I knew him from back home, we saw each other again because he was friends with my room-mates and we studied in the same university. We started hanging out, found out we had lots of fun together, carpool back to our hometown and became great friends and little by little we ended up as a couple. We fell very much in love with each other. He is a great man, supportive, a very special human being. We have been together for 4 years and I became an Army wife just before he left to Iraq. He came home safe and now we've been married for 2 years. No kids. Not yet or anytime soon. We adopted a lovely American Pitbull puppy, he's almost a year old now and we love him very much. (Sometimes I think my dog believes he is a cat...) 
 Here we are in this picture on a lovely afternoon and our lovely Pit Dante

I am married to my best friend, we have been married for over two years now and have never lived in the same home.  I shall explain, lol,  we met online in the summer of 2008 on a site called fubar.  My picture went scrolling across the top as a new member and he sent me a glass of fu-wine to welcome me to the site.  It took me 24 hours to figure out how to respond to his gesture and we started talking, alot!  When we met we were both single parents, we both had 4 children and we found we had a lot to talk about, the Joys and Pitfalls of Parenting 101.  It was a few months before either of us confessed that we were interested in one another as more than friends, but the fact was we lived over 1,800kms / 1,200 miles apart from each other, in separate countries, him in The United States of America and me in Canada aka "The Great White North".  After 5 months of online talking with webcams going more often than not, we decided to meet in person and we made arrangements for me to fly down and spend 10 days with him and his sons, then 15, 13 and 12.  We are now married and have been in the process of immigrating myself and my four children down to the States, if all goes well, we should be there this late summer early fall.  Our extended family and our puppies (who will be 2 this August 20th) will finally reside under one roof for the first time on a permanent basis. .. here's a picture of us all being goofy this last Easter Vacation

My husband loves the Pin Up looks, he doesn't roll his eyes (too often) when I ask him which one he likes best even if I've asked 28,836 times before and he is forever telling me how great I look in them, he's often said if we had the money he'd let me buy every dress I've ever wanted from PUG .. as well as all the SHOES!!! :D .. that there .. is LOVE!

♥Thank you to all for sharing your stories and congratulations to all those who've found the person they were meant to love, like, adore, lust, want, need and enjoy for the time they are given together.  ♥

Such a great story!

He was my brothers friend : ) We met when I was 15 and he was 14. We couldn't really stand each other. But as the years went by we grew closer. We married when I was 19 and he was 18, Lived the Marines Corps life.. Have had our ups and downs. But grow deeply in love with each passing day .He is the most amazing man I have ever met. He has blessed me with 2 absolutely stunning daughters.. We love life and enjoy spending it with our 2 Chocolate Labs, 1 Jack Russell and our bunny Caramel Creamsicle.

Your bunny is adorable!! His hair is so fluffy!!!

This is my husband, Kjetil (it's OK, don't try to pronounce it :P). He is literally from the other side of the world. I'm from Australia and he is from Norway. We have been married for three and a half years. We met when we were at uni, studying graphic design. I had quietly admired him (and his sexy accent) from a distance until, one night, I had enough Dutch courage to harass him at a local pub with my now-famous catch phrase, "Hey, Design Boy!" He decided to stay on another year at uni to do Honours whilst I completed my post-graduate studies to become a teacher. His dad advised him to do this so we could spend another year together. We were separated for a year, when he had to go back to Norway as his student VISA ran out, but we realised that being apart was just too hard, so in Dec, 2007 I went to Norway and we got engaged. We were married in 2008 on the beach in Australia. Kjetil has since been granted his permanent residency.

 We share a love of design, art, comics, movies and music. Stupid jokes, terrible, terrible social commentary, travelling, family and friends keep us smiling.
