/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Well... I actually married a /jp/sie; we were on and off internet friends for over a decade. I always liked him and had a crush on him, even before I knew what he looked like. We met through /a/ actually, it was my home board and he frequented it. There were a lot of ups and downs in our (internet) relationship, but when we started talking again as older adults, it just made sense to meet up and see what happens. So I flew down to go see him, and the rest is history. He loves Touhou and this is his home board, which is actually why I started getting into it. Of course, back in the day, I knew about the famous 2hu memes and the girls, but I was never really into it when I was younger in its hayday. It's kind of fun discovering 20+ years of Touhou art and videos and games to explore, it's rare to find new hobbies at my age. With that said, you can't really force stuff like this. Every single relationship I've had started online, and I usually met my exes through 4chan, Facebook, or other places like that. I couldn't even imagine attempting to date in a normie fashion, like IRL dates or disgusting dating apps. The thought of it legit makes me cringe. My advice is to just be socialable online in your interest circles and keep an open mind, and eventually you may run into the love of your life!
