Is it ever explained how Sarah Connor knew Enrique or how their relationship was established?

She was a paramilitary nut after T1. They were probably some kind of counter-revolutionaries or guerllillas terrorist types from Latin America that had weapons and training and black market access.

She probably got hooked up with them after the first film when it was clear she was heading out of the city and into the desert to wait for the future and train John.

I believe the character had additional story and presence in the novels and comics, etc. I don’t know the backstory. I’ve only ever just watched the movies (countless times).

But no, their background relationship was not established during the T2 movie.

It's intentionally left vague. Show don't tell, that's how great stories work.

After T1 she clearly became super into weapons and survival training, they make allusions to her life between T1 and T2 several times and she's clearly living off the grid and running around with a rough and tumble crowd.

I always thought that this was the answer. I figured they either cut out any scenes explaining it or left it for the audience to decide.

Jon kind of explains it a little.
" my mom ran guns in guatamala with Enrique"

But the actual story came from video games and comics.
."

quote:

The Terminator RPG
Enrique Salceda ran guns with Travis Gant in Guatemala. Enrique met Sarah and John Connor and welcomed the Connors as a family when Gant and Sarah broke up. In Guatemala, Enrique helped John with his survival training. Business was booming until one of Sarah's acquaintances revealed herself to be an undercover federal agent. After everything went wrong, the agent was killed, and Enrique and the Connors split up; Sarah demanded her share of their last gun run, which Enrique then stored away for later use. The T2 RPG Sourcebook

Enrique complied as requested, concealing the guns in Charon Mesa, close to the Mexican border, out of loyalty to Sarah and John. He shared a home there with his wife Jolanda, their dog, and their three children, Francisco, Juanita, and Paco. Sarah returned for her guns after breaking out of Pescadero State Hospital in 1995. The T2 RPG Sourcebook

Salceda and his family vanished when Sarah left.

Knowing the future and being the mother of the one who'll save humanity changes you, I suspect.

I think the RPG wasn’t a video game but a tabletop role playing game. Like dungeons and dragons
