Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.
RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Donβt post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

First social media account I signed up up for was msn to talk to a girl I liked. Msn is long gone, but that girl is now my wife
Here is to us that met our wives on the internet before online dating. We will be married 25 years this year.
Congrats! My wife and I hit 21 this year... though we met in person, in a cage filled with vending machines.
Crazy to think she has been a contact on almost all of them, at least the main ones of the time AIM/ICQ/IRC/MSN/YAHOO...
What sort of cage is that ??? Not in a zoo of course ??π³π³π³
Lol... Nah, there was an area at our high school with a row of vending machines, to keep kids from buying stuff outside of lunchtime they put two big sliding metal grates in front of them with a padlock on it. At lunch they would remove the lock and slide the grates in front of each other a bit and put the lock back on. It left us with a little cage with an entrance on each end.
π€―π€―π€―....... You actually remained married that long ??π³π³π³π³π³π³
