She was a direct report at my job.

Tinder. We are married now and expecting a baby
Obscure Pokemon shipping tag on Tumblr
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!
He fixed my bike after I smashed the detailer on a curb -- and later texted the number from my form to ask if I wanted to hang out.
A little creepy but glad it worked out for you.
I hear you, but we were both in college. It was just normal to reach out to new people. Anyway, going great 12 years later.
Fair enough, younger people do things that may not have been the best idea in hindsight.
Glad itβs going well for you both in any case.
I was late for work, and I had forgotten to brush my teeth. So I ran into the sundry shop to buy a roll of Lifesavers, and she was behind the counter.
Little did I know at the time, but she would save my life in a lot more ways than just by making my breath smell better.
At a batman movie
So, batman or superman
Met her in Copperbell Mines in FFXIV.
Sat next to her first day of year 10 in high school.
Didn't get with her for 10 more years but we were always good friends.
Here we are now
We had instant chemistry⦠because we literally had the recitation and lab for our Chem 102 class together
It had an opet beta weekend prior to fully releasing as "A Realm Reborn"
Met through a friend and his GF. We don't talk to either now.
Our bonding occurred when they were yelling at one another, they were drunk and ~~wanted~~ needed the other's attention. We refused to "settle" an incident or even participate in it.
This occurred way more often than just a single incident. It was a habit if you went anywhere with them. Both competeted for the other attention but would not give in... only one up the other. Pretty Fred in my opinion
The old fashioned way: college/Facebook/pirating music as a favor.
I met up with a group of friends prior to a concert. She was somebody that I didn't know yet. That changed!
she walked in on me having sex
My ex broke up because I revived an important problem that was a month old, but she eskalated and broke up. Didnt hurt as she had too many red flags she couldnt fix.
We had a hotel that couldnt be canceled and I was alone with it and payed it alone too. I talked about this issue in a discord dating server and a Person DMed me.
We both also talked how we both dont want a reltationship in future after having both similar issues. But somehow, we both were too attractive and had the best sex in our both's life. We also are very similar and tend to be the person who we dreamed of to have as a partner.
Now life goes on and we are a bit too far away, still. After University we plan to come together and meet every vacation for the best sex again.
I was accepting and embracing the void with the addition to focus on myself and isolate a bit. I loved the idea to finally be able to focus on myself only, but got the love of my life instead.
I still can focus on myself easily for some reason. Other relationships dragged my entire focus onto them as I always had problems that I wasnt allowed to talk about. But with her I easily can talk about anything
I didn't... yet
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.
The outcome is yours to decide
You never know what's in your future.
The closest I ever found to love was a result of me being unapologetically myself. I was a terrible person but it turns out that someone was into that. By the end I was involved with someone else's life by no effort of my own; exemplified by the fact that my first memory of them is a few years after their first memory of me. Sadly as I grew as a person we fell off and this time i'm finding it a lot harder to find someone who likes me.
