In my case it was the fact I made her laugh and I treated her with respect,and I was a top mover on the dancefloor.

And I chose not to beat her off with the sh1tty stick. :lol:

    I met my wife when she was 15, I was 18, she was a stunner, I knew her sister from college.
    I was in a car that wasnt mine and pretended it was (I used to use work cars to pull girls as a kid) But I came clean with her and 23 years later we are married with 3 kids.

    I think it was because I was an active outdoors'y person, we met when I was kayak surfing down in Cornwall.

    So you used your car as a phallic symbol, common amongst men with small c0cks. :wink::lol:

    Was the sister worth it then?

    It wasnt mine, thats the thing and trust me, at 17 and 18 it worked a treat. My only question as ive got older was how come they believed me !!!
    The sister is ok, she is like a sister to me I guess as ive grown up with her, some mates fancy her but ive never seen the attraction.

    It was probably my chat-up line: "Don't struggle, I've got a knife".

    She wrote to me in prison and the rest, as they say, is history. 8)

    You'd have to ask my better half what the real clincher was, but she has told me that when we first met she did think to herself "oh, look at the thighs."

    I'm devilishly handsome and full of wit, so that might be a clue as well... :D

    Boyish good looks, wit, charm and intellect all played a part. But the deal was really sealed by my penis that is roughly the same size as a chubby baby's arm

    This reminds me of our anniversary. It was just the other day. She asked me "Do you know what day this is?". "Of course I do, its our tenth anniversary" I replied. She said "Can you remember what you were thinking that first night we had together?". "Yep, exactly. I thought 'i'm going to lay you on the bed and suck your **** until I suck your brains right out' ". She said "...and what are you thinking now?". To which I replied "What a good job I must have done"

    I'm not sure really, I just remember first seeing her in a pub whilst I was sat in the corner licking my eyebrows :P
  • I asked the future Mrs Damage if she would carry my bottle of vodka to a party, then when we got there I insisted on finding a tv so I could watch an episode of Tour of Duty whilst ignoring her. She must have seen something promising in my rather bizarre chat up methods (truth is I was absolutely smitten by her!) as we got engaged 3 weeks later and have been married for 16 years.

    Tour of Duty,i always enjoyed it and it was funny to hear of it again via that story.

    Feck knows, been trying to work it out for the past 20 years. I think she saw me as a project! She reckons I was tall, dark and handsome. I was certainly the first two but I think she's taking the p*ss on the third and I'm not even dark anymore. Still, she's stuck with me now so that will teach her not to be so rash :lol:

    ...if I'm honest, the sort of behaviour which would probably get the Saville police knocking on my door if I was a celeb accused of unsavoury acts with adult co-workers....."he groped me on the dancefloor back in 1997, please ruin his life...."

    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.

    We met when she kept trying to get me to go out with her best mate,I didn,t like her mate so I said I,d rather go out with you,to which she replied ok.Her mate wasn,t best pleased but 32 years later,4 kids and 4 grand kids it seems a wise choice.

    Invited her to Old Trafford, plonked her in a seat. Went off to another part of the Stretford end to sit in my seat and we won the game.

    After a season long repetition of this procedure, she turned into a very rare female specimen - a woman who understands the offside rule. In showing this depth of knowledge and understanding, I advised her that she had "made the grade" and we now have 3 kids, a happy marriage and some educated and well informed discussions after watching MOTD.
