Real life. Not a serious relationship, though. I'm fine with meeting people online, too.

Real life, but I personally know three married couples who met through dating apps. I met my wife before they existed but if she decided to leave me tomorrow I'm sure I'd use them.

Technically we met when my friend made a video dating reel to try and sell her on one of the lonely virgins from our office- and when he ran out of real single dudes he asked me to pretend to fill it out. I put on a green plastic leprechaun hat and pretended to be a German game coder who had come up through the Amiga demo scene in the 80/90s.

I claimed that I once got 15 parallax copperbobs each separately running a live HAM mpeg movie rotating around its circumference.

I also claimed I was in hiding because of a deadly beef with the Belgian Cracking Service.

she dismissed all the real available dudes from the video and asked about "Klaus Von Blowyoo"

I was (obviously) not single at the time but later became available. She must have felt like she won the Hotto Lotto.

Currently I'm having sex with my friend's co-worker which I met at my birthday. Nothing serious though.
My previous ex I met through Tinder, the one before real life.

A dating website that no longer exists. It was the very beginnings of online dating, around 2000.

Internet, but not on a dating app.
Social media and skype.
Know her since january 2014, we met in real life with a bunch of other e-friends in april 2014 (basically, those people knew each other since early 2013, I got introduced to them online because my best friend was part of that online group chat), but we started to really talk a lot on december 2014.
From february 2015, we started to flirt, and we started dating on april 2015.
We live together since september 2017, it works really well.

Through an app which is funny because we live 2 blocks away but we never would've run into each other without it.

Met on Tinder to hook up thinking that'd be it and now we're about to celebrate seven months together.
