where did you meet your partner, if any?

I met my wife on-line 20 years ago. We met on a goth teenager/young adult networking site (NOT a dating site). hehe She was 23 and I was 31.

After talking on the phone 10-12 hours a day, and endless chats for about a month, I packed my car and drove roughly 1000 miles to her town, and we've been together pretty much 24/7 ever since. 🔥

1st wife -- through the Society for Creative Anachronism ( a Medieval "history-by-doing" club)

2nd wife -- in line at the drugstore

Current girlfriend -- through AdultFriendFinder

1st wife -- 25 years; worked great as long as I was never home. I moved 200 miles away, came down most weekends and he marriage fell apart quickly.

2nd wife -- 15 years. Loved her so much! She caught a virus (not COVID) and was gone in a week

Current girlfriend -- about 2 or 3 months

I'm glad to hear that

I genuinely can not see myself meeting anyone ever again. It would be financially impossible, too. At the moment because I have no close near living relatives, the State has to meet all of my medical costs and treatments as well as poviding additional care & support. If I had a wife or a 'live in partner' (called a 'Common Law Wife' in the UK) then they would automatically be expected to meet all these costs and also do all of the care & support. And my own financial benefit package would disappear immediately :-(
