We met through a chatroom roleplaying story-type characters. We started talking like real people, started talking on the phone a LOT (thank goodness for free long distance on cell phones), and a few months later, he flew down to Texas. We drove up to VA and got married not long after. :)

It's definitely interesting, having all your people living in the computer. I'm less shy online than I should be, I think. Your way is probably better. Safer, too.
