    I worked with her older sister for a couple years, perfectly content being single. One day, randomly blurted out that I hated being single. Her sister asked me to describe what I wanted, I said a few things, and “You just described my sister! Let me introduce you.”

    Apparently, she had already thought we would be perfect together. That was 16 years ago, and we’ve been married for almost 13. I could not ask for a more perfect person to have as my wife and dearest friend.

        A couple things I value and a few childish superficial things.

        I remember saying something like “why can’t I just meet a really kind, intelligent, kinda nerdy” then I forget, then “short, brown-haired girl?”

        And my now-sister in law, “OMG that’s my sister!” Honestly, it feels like it was meant to be.

    Well, I didn’t…
    And looking at where I am heading, I probably won’t either. However, it is certainly positive, in some way, not for me, but the other person. I am not a good person.

    I met up with a group of friends prior to a concert. She was somebody that I didn’t know yet. That changed!

    I looked in the mirror.

    Kinda kidding, I have not found anyone for longterm but I learned to be ok with it and stop hating myself.

    At a bdsm club.

    Spotted her across the way. She spotted me when I struck up a conversation with the boyfriend of her bff.

    Here we are 6 years later married.

    Good times.

    Online dating, but we really clicked once it turned out we both love same kinda of video games (mostly Kojima stuff). She commented on my gaming headsets in one of my pics, but they were not even gaming headset, they were just Bluetooth sennheisers, but from there we dove deeper into our interests. Thank you Sennheisers!

    Back in the days of non-ironic MySpace, I used it to promote my band and my now husband was one of the people I contacted. A few days after that, we ran into each other at a local bar in line for the bathroom. I got his contact info and asked him out on a date. We’ve been together since.

      It has. I’m pansexual, I had two guys show interest in me and none of the people I showed interest in matched and there were quite a few. I live in a small population place so that doesn’t help to begin with. I also was stupid enough to pay the premium subscription to get nowhere. And tinder wasn’t any better either.

      Also OK Cupid, but my wife and I also knew each other back in high school. So that was our icebreaker. Ok cupid was the only dating app I could actually use because everything else required a Facebook profile, which I do not have…
