I first got pinged by Joe in mid-January 2011. He was cute and I really wanted to talk to
him after reading his profile. So I pinged him back...and he pinged me back...and I
pinged him back. It was quickly clear that neither of us had a full membership. I was just
about to give up completely as no one else had panned out and I checked back one
more time. He had bought a membership just to talk to me. We talked constantly from
the moment we met, via e-mail and instant messenger. We would chat late into the night
(even all night a couple of times) talking about everything, science fiction shows, table
top and video games, music, our friends and family, and especially kitties.
We quickly knew we wanted to meet and set up a first date. We met up at a bookstore
and had a wonderful time and started dating that night. We have spent a wonderful year
and a half gaming, watching sci-f, going to cons, and just reading together. Two nights
ago he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I cannot wait to spend the
rest of my life with my awesome geeky man.
