    I remember people would lie about how they met because they didn’t want to say they met online. Oh how the times have been-a-changing

      Depending on the context, my partner and I don’t like sharing that we met on an app either.

        The only app that people have been hesitant to tell me they met is PoF. Although I’ve never met anyone who’s volunteered that they met on fetlife and you know, statistically speaking, some people must have.

        If y’all met at a brothel or while at the Jan 6th rally, I’d get it. I don’t get it for most other things though.
