Interestingly enough, wife and I met online, in 1994 (EFNET, IRC). I think people started to meet online before 2010.

I think people started to meet online before 2010. Certainly, but back then meeting online was highly unusual and there was a period where online dating had a bit of a stigma. It's probably only been in the last decade or so that it's been fully normalized.
