Any other match.com couples on here?

Ashleigh, on June 22, 2012 at 12:41 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 60

I think one of the funniest things about my engagement is that we met online- I am wondering how many more match.com couples are out here?? We have been together for only 6 months- I never thought I'd be one of "those" couples- but we really could be on a commercial, haha!

    We're not match.com but we ended up meeting on POF (plenty of fish) LOL and I am still shocked and in the beginning was a little embarrased about it, but it definitely becoming more common. Congratulations!

    Yep. I feel like I could be on a commercial as well. I never thought I'd meet my FH on-line. Most of those guys are pretty disgusting and creepy. Well except for my now wonderful amazing husband. Smiley smile

    We met on Plenty of Fish 6 years ago. We laugh about it now saying that we met online before it was the cool and popular thing to do! I never thought I'd meet my FH online, but I'm happy I did!! Smiley smile

    Not match.com but OKcupid. Worked out insanely well for us.

    My FH and I met on match.com back when it was still pretty new, we've been together 8 years now. We both signed up on a lark just to check out who would be doing this new online dating thing, not expecting to actually meet anyone...guess the joke was on us. Smiley smile we didn't always tell people at first, but now we let it all hang out. *grin*

    I met my DH on a match.com date. However, I was on a meet with someone else.

    I went to the meet place ahead of time for the two beer advantage and DH said something funny when the bartender carded my old behind. That was the best way to get my attention. It really was love at first sight. DH slipped me his card and I had a horrid date with the match dude. I don't think anyone would have beaten DH out though. So, we did meet on a match meet, but he wasn't the match. : )

    I have a friend who met her husband of 10 (11?) years online about 12 years ago. Still going strong.

    OMG this is soo kewl we met on match.com and always joke about calling them and telling them we want to be on the commercial. We are so lucky to found one another. We just clicked right away. We met in May and we engaged by the end of Aug. I could not of asked for a better person I tell everyone my dad who passed away 7 years ago had a hand in helping me and Wayne get together esp considering he was still in FL until the march before he moved to VA and got on match.com. I would recommend Match to anyone who is serious about finding the one. I can't wait to marry the love of my life.

    I tried POF and match.com with zero success. FH had tried eHarmony and ended up getting jilted by his fiancee. We both gave up and were just lonely losers on twitter....till we found each other there! Actually, his cat's *RIP Stripe* found me first. I asked the kitty if his human was as cute as he was, and boy was he ever!

    The internet is the greatest thing ever. So many of us found our true loves that we might never have met otherwise through it.

    Carole that's hilarious!!! It was meant to be.

    We met on eharmony.

    Funny thing is, after we started hanging out we realized all the times we almost met IRL. We both moved to Denver in August 2004. We lived in the same apartment building one year. We went to the same concerts and bars. We even had some acquaintances in common but we just neeeeeeever quite crossed paths.

    Whodathunk it. Smiley smile

    I LOVE IT! I'd say about 60% of my couples meet online, and I always talk about it during the ceremony love story (well, unless they don't want me to....) I think it's great. I love the hi-tech twist to the traditional matchmaker!

    Isnt it funny how that works Krisalicious! I dated a guy years back that was like that, I couldnt believe we never met! lol

    Me too Celia!

    I tried online dating a bit, met some cool guys but just didnt click. Mr Flakes and Mr winkys frustrated me so I stopped. lol I ended up hard core into my business not out in the dating world. Didnt even care about it at the time my business was my BF ha ha! Went to a random Christmas party last minute with a friend in NJ and met my man. Now he lives in Syracuse with me. Smiley laugh
