I’m no longer FA - My story

Hey everyone, I haven’t posted here in a long time. Honestly can’t remember I’m gonna guess it’s been 1-2 years since however I was a fairly common poster and commentor for years when I was in college. But I had to come back here once or if I ever got out/escaped it was something I always said I would do. From the age 19 to now…27 I always related well to people in this subreddit and felt as though you’re the only ones who truly I could relate to.

Anyway on to my thoughts/story. So to get to the point I want to let you all know my longtime suspicion was always correct; it’s all about LUCK!! If you ever talk to “normies” or people you know who have experience with relationships and you ask them how they do it or for advice and they give you all this crap like “improve yourself or get out of your comfort zone” it’s all BS. The only one that somewhat applies is when you stop looking it happens. I have to admit around the end of 2019 or start of covid I stopped looking or caring about not finding someone.

That leads to what happened. I met a girl on Reddit in a different subreddit during late 2020 and believe it or not she only started talking to me because she wanted to know more about my FA posts after she did some scrolling through my post history. I know crazy right imagine a girl/guy wanting to know about your FA posts. So anyway I explained to her why I post and my thoughts on it and from there we talked more and more as the days and months went by and we started to get a lot closer. That year was a tough time for us both so i think that also brought us even closer and as result we would text or talk on the phone basically everydsy.

So after about a year of talking like this we eventually started talking about meeting one another in person even tho we live in different continents. As you’d imagine I was excited about the thought but also extremely nervous but we agreed and setup to meet this past May for a few weeks. The fact I had met a girl online and she liked me enough to want to fly to a different country to meet me and spend time with me was mind blowing. I couldn’t believe what my life was becoming. I was shaking in anticipation for the day she would arrive for weeks leading up to it.

To wrap this up cause I’ve been rambling forever she was here for the past 3 weeks and It was the most amazing 3 weeks of my life. I can finally say I have a gf and have done all the things I dreamed of doing for years. My family and friends were shocked cause I didn’t really talk to people about the situation at all it’s awkward for me. I remember when she first got here I was like “oh I hate PDA” but I have to admit once you find someone you really enjoy things like that. So anyway that’s my story and I hope every single one of you reading this eventually one day catch a lucky break like I did. I truly never thought I would end up here and be so lucky because I’ll be honest I did nothing special to have earned this it was just meant to be i guess haha.

TL:DR Met a girl on Reddit during covid, she was intrigued by my FA post history. We became close to the point she flew to visit me and we are bf/gf and I’ve escaped FA by pure LUCK and wish the best for you all to be lucky like I was.
