Online matchmaking seems a little bit weak, but whatever. It's just another option. A friend of mine met a really nice girl on match or eharmony or whatever, and they get along fine. He wouldn't have encountered her if not for the website, because she doesn't work or live in his social areas. Works for them.
I met my wife the old fashioned way: in college. We were in a big lecture hall. I saw her bending over to pick up a pencil or something she had dropped. She had a hell of an ass, so decided I would sit next to her. I didn't say anything to her. The class was boring as hell and I fell asleep. So did she, right next to me. When the class ended, we both woke up at the same time realizing we had both been asleep. Her head was on my shoulder and I was resting my head against hers. We woke up, and it was awkward, so I tried to break the tension.
"Even though I just slept with you, I still respect you."
"You could have at least bought me dinner first."
"Well, I missed that boat, how about tonight?"
"Meet me at the fountain at 8pm."
BAM
