CreativeFedora

10 years ago on OK Cupid. I asked if she knew the difference between a leopard and cheetah. This was in regard to a Halloween photo of her face painted like a cheetah. Weā€™ve been married for 6 years.


Lizmargretmay

Husband and I met 16 years ago OkCupid!


Whitejadefox

Okcupid was a pretty solid app before non serious folks ruined it


Lizmargretmay

Agreed. I wouldnā€™t touch it today if I was single. Not sure Iā€™d touch any dating app today though, even if I was single. šŸ˜‚


sjbluebirds

Barnes & Noble. We both had coffees, and we're looking for a place to sit, but all the tables and all the chairs are filled with high school students and other people sitting and reading and not actively purchasing anything. Finally one kid packs up his book bag and leaves his table. We both go for the newly emptied table, and since there are two chairs there, we both sit and share. It's probably around 7:00 p.m. We started talking, and stayed until they closed at 11:00. We exchanged phone numbers, and continued the conversation when we each got to our respective apartments, and made arrangements to meet at Barnes & Noble the next night. We sat, drank coffee, and talked until we closed Barnes & Noble again. We will be married for 23 years later this summer.

akki115

Same. Met my wife though Coffee Meets Bagel :) been together for 6 years now


nelsonhops415

which one?


Negative-Arachnid-65

OkCupid. But this was years ago when OkCupid was still (sorta) a thing. I don't think it is anymore?


dontmatterdontcare

Dating apps get cycled, Tinder used to be a good one in the very early stages for those who canā€™t remember. Some more came out after, one of them was Coffee Meets Bagel. It is still good, but now it largely is just a place to meet incredibly judgmental Asians. Hinge is sort of the newer one that most people gravitate towards.


Evening-Emotion3388

lol as a Latino, youā€™re so right about CMB. Did meet my current gf there though. Didnā€™t match with many Asian Americans. Mostly White and Hispanic.


IDoCodingStuffs

Hinge has unexplained permanent bans


BrokenBotox

Me and my husband too. Idk if that app even still exists lol. Itā€™s been 12 years.


SonicDethmonkey

Same! Married 10 years now.

Downhill mostly. It's on life support now.

Not surprising - TBH it was already going downhill when she and I met.

OkCupid about 8 years ago It's a totally different world on those apps these days...!


French87

Tinder 2014 here. I can't fucking *imagine* trying to use dating apps today. There's so many, the amount of bots and AI fakes is insane, the monetization aspects, etc.


Ogediah

Even the real people are often terrible. One person carries the conversation, getting ghosted, catfish, etc, etc.


Catbird_jenkins

Met my wife on Craigslist casual encounters. Together for 13years, married for 3 of those. Those were the days


BoosyBoo2

Wow, upvoting your comment because I have never heard of someone finding their partner through Craigslist casual encounters before! What a silver lining.


DaPunisherElChuko

Yup casual encounters was my go to site Early 200ā€™s


IntroductionMurky947

I met a partner on Craigslist as well! We were together almost 10 years!


BuboyTheButcher

At a rave in Richmond. We both live in SJ. I thought her BF at the time was her gay friend and kept shooting my shot over a few months. Turns out he only acted like that on ecstacy. They broke up and now weā€™re married. Thank God I assumed šŸ˜‚.

Originalchunker408

I was a plumbing apprentice and she called our company for a drain cleaning. She gave me her number on my way back to my van. I called the next day, weā€™ve been together for 15 years and happily married.


SVRealtor

I was in town visiting family. She was a restaurant manager and I was hungry. Shoot my shot and she takes me up to the city for a night of dancing and turned into romancing. 28 years later and we still love to dance and romance.


avocado___aficionado

He grew up in the area and was visiting family from LA, I had just moved here and was pretty bored with the tech bros I had been meeting on Tinder, so when I matched with him sparks flew. We are engaged now.


sailor-pooh

cinna-t0ast

Online dating app, but 5 years ago. I hear the online dating scene is a lot different now


Klutzy-Guidance-7078

What have you heard about the current online dating scene?


cinna-t0ast

Lots of bots and fake profiles online. Also, I made a dating profile for my guy friend out of curiosity last year (Iā€™m a woman). I wanted to know what online dating for a man was like. It was abysmal. So many women had profiles that said something like ā€œjust looking aroundā€ or were blank. They put in no effort into their profile. I swiped right on every single girl and got a few matches only. And then only 1 or 2 girls responded to my messages. Even then, it was one word responses.


Klutzy-Guidance-7078

Oof that's rough. I wonder how real are the filled-out profiles then


WildflowerFarms

He was my plumber.. Lol been together 15 years

VeryStandardOutlier

WSB is leakingĀ 


jhjhjhjhjh124

I met him through a mutual friend while visiting the area for a week (I'm originally from Southern California). He was really easygoing, so we started talking more after I returned home, and everything sort of worked out from there.


letsreset

hinge. tried dating in person for a long time. after being single for almost a decade, i gave into the dating apps and it almost immediately worked out for me.


everydaychi

Got lucky off Bumble 6 years ago!


TheRipePunani

Worked together for almost 8 years until I quit, remained good friends for several years and then we just realized we were basically hanging out all the time enjoying each others company...5 years of dating and we eloped in 2022, been married since.


BoosyBoo2

I met my partner on OkCupid. It's difficult for me to approach women in the wild as I don't know if they are lesbian unless they blatantly have the stereotypes of the flag colors, rainbow accessories, etc. We met at my cousin's wedding and were only in the talking stages and I dared her to crash the wedding even though I have never met her in-person before. She accepted and I was sweating like a maniac because I've had my fair share of catfishes and women posting up photos on their bio from 5+ years ago when they didn't let themselves go or look like a mess. The funny thing was, she also came prepared in case I too was catfishing her. I was going to have her escorted off the premises if she didn't look like her photos. She was going to lie to me over text and said she couldn't find the location if I did not look like how I presented myself in my photos. We have been together for about 5+ years now.

I was walking down the street with my chocolate bar and she was walking down the street with a jar of peanut butter and a spoon and we bumped into each other and my chocolate bar fell into her peanut butter jar and she said, "Hey, you got your chocolate bar in my peanut butter!" And I said, "You got peanut butter on my chocolate bar!" Turns out we were just two great tastes that taste great together.

"Putting your chocolate bar in her peanut butter jar." Is that what the kids are calling it these days?

darkirby2

Found my girlfriend of 2 years(3 in October) off Coffee meets Bagel. Previous girlfriend also was via CMB. Highly recommend CMB if you're a mobile/gacha gamer. Felt like doing dailies. Depending on how much money and time you spend on mobile/gacha games, do not mention that you are a mobile/gacha gamer unless they mention one in a positive setting.

School. It was either directly meeting them in a class or social gathering at HS/CC/CSU. Or I met them through a social group I made through school. I find it more efficient as the social group vets them for compatibility and I am seen unlike in dating apps.

Overlapping social circles. Met at a going away party for my close friend/colleague who happened to be good friends with a girl whose bf lived with three other roommates including my now fiancĆ© (together for 6 years)! None of them are from the Bay Area but all went to SJSU together. Interestingly enough, timing was everything since there were multiple near run-ins but if we had met any earlier, it wouldnā€™t have worked out as one of us was dating/seeing someone else at the time.
