I tried chatting on some of the recommended apps on Reddit and I can confirm that none of them work.

Which bring me to the following question: How do you find people who are interested in long-term relationships online?

Note: Please don't suggest looking in the real life.

I met my wife on a porn site

You cant leave us hanging like this, should they make it into a Hallmark movie ? Performer? was she a performer or were you, both ? Or both just fellow connisuers?

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 36 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Sorry! No, we're not performers nor especially attractive. In the interest of keeping it family-friendly we have a special interest and we connected because we were both fans of the same performer who is associated with and known for that special interest content that not many people like to enjoy. We are also avid writers so we wrote stories based on that special interest, and then we ended up getting to know each other through that writing. Writing is how we expressed those feelings that we can't share with other people who don't understand us as easily. After about a year of hanging out virtually I took a week off work and came to visit.

I gotta say, that's really sweet.

Even if it's because of some 11/10 degen shit that kicked it off. Maybe especially because of it.

[–] Oka@sopuli.xyz 14 points 5 days ago

I'd watch this documentary.

I can't be the only one itching to know what kind of degen shit it was, can I?

[–] osaerisxero@kbin.melroy.org 16 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I mean, sure, but they very carefully spent most of that big assed paragraph not saying it, it would be rude to press further.

[–] datavoid@lemmy.ml 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Why press? This is the time for wild speculation

[–] RedditRefugee69@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 4 days ago
