My husband and I also met online, in a chat room, 5 years ago. We immediately became friends- we had very, very similar interests and we found out that we had actually grown up within 100 miles of each other. He had a girlfriend, she dumped him after we had been chatting online for a year (just as friends!) and we promptly got together. He was in Boston, and I was in Georgia. We did the long distance thing and only actually got to see each other about twice a year for four years, until he got stationed here in Georgia and we got married this past July.
Yep, I tell people we met online. Alot of people think it's weird, and the ones who don't also assume we met through e-harmony. Doesn't bother me. [
