DID ROMANCE SPRING FROM ADVERSITY?

Valentine's Day is just around the corner. We're hoping you have a good how-we-met story to share about how you turned adversity into happily ever after.

Did you meet when you ran into each other in a fender-bender? Were you the one who nursed your partner back to health? Were you co-workers who didn't like the job but liked each other? Or maybe you met in the dentist's office while you were waiting in pain for a root canal.

Let us know. Email a few sentences about your story and a daytime phone number to mhouston@bnd.com

The stories will be in BND magazine on Feb. 10.
