We first met when Steve came to visit his life long, and one of my friends, in St. Louis. We arranged to meet for birthday celebrations, and instantly hit it off. We subsequently spent the rest of the week together, staying up way too late to watch The Office (American version aka the better one), having cinnamon roll picnics in Forest Park, and mocking each other's mannerisms. He had to leave, but we never stopped talking, and he came back to celebrate my birthday a few months later. The rest is history.
