She was a direct report at my job.

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!

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

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.

We had instant chemistry… because we literally had the recitation and lab for our Chem 102 class together

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Fair enough, younger people do things that may not have been the best idea in hindsight.

Glad it’s going well for you both in any case.

Met her in Copperbell Mines in FFXIV.

The old fashioned way: college/Facebook/pirating music as a favor.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

she walked in on me having sex

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

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

I didn't... yet

I found my waifu in an anime

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.
