      I met my wife with OK Cupid back in ‘14, back when someone could message someone else without being on some sort of premium bullshit.

      I’m not sure that’s possible in ‘26. I don’t think we would have met today.

          And now she’s in the room next to me, and she’s adorable and I miss her dearly. It’s been a decade. I still yearn for her. She’s right there, telling therapy to people, but I can’t even do much as look at her cause that would breach confidentiality.

          I’ll have to wait until she’s done with work.

            If she’s been in that room for a decade, I think it’s okay to check on her now.

            In all seriousness, thanks for sharing your experience. There are so many ugly things happening in the world right now. It’s nice to stop and focus on one of the many bright sparks of light in the darkness. Brings a tear to my eye, sincerely.

          It was fairly controversial, when I first met my partner back in ‘05 on a different service. I remember match.com being a thing back then. I might be a progenitor, who knows

      I think all the ones owned by match group (tinder, okcupid, hinge, match, more …) have ads. Sometimes they’ll show you ads for other services they own. It’s real weird getting an ad for tinder on hinge.

    I got a weird relationship. My wife is basically the man and I go to work and also cook. I’m still a feminist no matter what.

    I’m LGBT Basic edition as while I do love my government issued trans gf, I do force her to watch me stream Neon White and watch pirated movies with me.
