We met at work, but the crazy backstory is that we had been in the same big social circle for over ten years, had tons of mutual friends, and had never met.
It gets crazier. Hubster is a popular local musician, and I had gone to see all of his bands over the years, and we never met. I don’t even remember seeing him on a stage (wasn’t really into musicians).
Crazier yet, in the late 80s, he moved out of state, and I found myself tagging along with a bunch of friends to his going away party! We got there late, there wasn’t much going on, and I decided to walk home after about a half hour. No, I didn’t know whose party I was going to, except that it was one of the guys in the band we had just gone to see.
And we never met until he moved back two years later and was splitting up with his then wife and started working at the company where I worked. It was love at first sight for both of us, causing all our friends to kick themselves for not introducing us sooner and saving both of us a couple of lousy marriages.
