My wife and I met over the I-net BEFORE the days of Web. Back then, newsgroups such as alt.personals were very popular (and entertaining).
We each went to two different universities on the east coast. I posted an anonyous message out of curiosity and out of the 7 replies, she and I made a match.
We dated long distance for several months until graduation, then got engaged. She got a programming job near me and a year later we married. We've been happily married now for 6 years.
Geek romance does work. Even though the I-net has evolved significantly since then, I think it is still possible to find true love.
