thewayneWell, twenty years ago Tuesday.
My wife and I met on an online dating board!
And we were married eighteen months later.
I don't think there's much in the way of online dating services less, though I suppose there are a few. I can't imagine using an app to find someone, I really can't. I suppose they might work for some, but I can't see it working for me.
Russet said it was kind of crazy fast, it was accelerated a bit by her father's cancer. He passed not quite two weeks after we married.

But seriously, I admire her work, wow.
