Been online looking for love? Even if you haven't found it (yet!), you've probably come away with at least one story: funny, scary, bizarre, creepy, juicy or just plain amazing. For all the others who are online right now, they could use a laugh--or inspiration.
Julia's story: When I was in college my best friend and I decided to sign up for some dating services just for fun. I ended up meeting this one guy through some dating site; we fit each other best according to the site's surveys. Well, we lived far apart, and weren't interested in a long-distance relationship, but we had a fun friendship. Sometimes we would change the answers on our questionnaires, just to see how much higher our "things in common" ranking could get!
After a while I decided that online dating services weren't for me. I was spending a lot of time at a particular IRC chatroom, though, and was making some great friends. Who would have thought that I would have met my now-husband there? Yes, I met my love online, and I wasn't even intentionally looking for him!
Megan's story: It all began on April 9, 2003. I was on a Yahoo! Chatroom just looking for someone to talk to because I was bored. I clicked on a name and just started chatting. We began writing emails back and forth and I really didn't expect things to take off quickly because weI livedwas aboutliving in 2-3North statesCarolina awayat fromthe eachtime and he was living other,in Maryland, but within a month we were talking everyday online and on the phone 2 times per day. After that month, he came on a bus to my state and to meet me. The moment we hugged and had our first kiss I felt this warmth and this feeling that I was going to marry this man. Little did I know, my feelings were right. 1 year developed into 2 years, and 2 years developed into 3 years. We recently got married January 13, 2007. I still cannot believe that I met my now-husband that way! :o)
