We also met at work only a year out of college and suffice to say, it was NOT love at first sight! I actively disliked him when we first met because his first words to me during a team meeting were that I shouldn't slouch so
much. I thought he was obnoxious but we gradually became friendly over the next few years, then I left for another job. We went on a road trip together about 10 months later to see another former co-worker and by the time we got
home, we both realized how much we enjoyed each other's company. He asked me out to dinner shortly after and the rest is history!
