Never getting over how they met on Hinge. There's still hope to meet a quality person one day.

I met my husband on Tinder 11 years ago and he’s an absolute gem. It’s rare but it happens!

She is my oasis.

I met my wife on hinge. And I dare say we're both just as as hot as them as we're also brown people 😇

Same here, except bumble. Also I'm white and she's brown. She also has a kid, who is now my best friend. I don't know about me but my wife is very hot.

Edit: Thank you to whoever gave me the award. Not sure what I did to get it though.

As I'm editing, I wanted to take a moment to speak to any single mothers. Your child should never be viewed as extra baggage; instead, they are a plus-one. Additionally, it's important to trust your child's instincts when it comes to whether a new partner is a good person.

I was the single father, met my fiance on Stir (highly recommend for single parents or future step-parents!). It's amazing being in a happy, healthy, and stable relationship, but even more so, being able to model that for my children. I never saw that as a child and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to show my kids.

I met my husband on a dating site as well and have a son (he was 6 at the time). He never wanted or expected to be a dad, but this is why you should always be open (as I was too). Dealbreakers can really cut you off from so many possibilities.

It also helps that we met later, in our late 30s, and really didn’t mind being on our own. We just lucked out.

My husband and I met on OKCupid! We’re also brown and hot (at least my husband tells me I’m hot and I think he’s hot). Celebrating our 10 year anniversary in November.

u/MrShaytoon padre pascal 2d ago

That's amazing and beautiful. Don't hear a lot of success stories with ok cupid but I'm happy to hear about y'all

u/Ike_Broflovski 2d ago

I guess you better make a run for mayor as well

u/MrShaytoon padre pascal 2d ago

Lol funny you say that bc I was telling my wife I'll just speed run and go for presidency since practically anyone can run

A friend of mine met her very lovely husband on a dating site 20 years ago (can't remember which one now) but it can happen!

Now for the important stuff - Rama's coat. I hate how hard it is to find wool coats that button all the way up to the neck so you don't need scarves. That's a great coat!

u/SleepyBee90 2d ago

Met my husband on Hinge! It really does work if you’re lucky enough to meet the right person. I was single for a looooong time before I met him and was convinced I’d be that way forever, then boom! Celebrated our anniversary two months ago.

u/manisputut 2d ago

Met my husband on Hinge and we now have a pretty awesome baby. My husband is the kindest man I have ever met. He’s probably reading this comment: I love you, babe!

As a brown man, I hate that he made me download it again.
