I think it happens more frequently than thought. I've known a lot of people who met in the hobby, but few worked out. The ones that did, are still happily together to this day. That makes me really happy for them.
For me, It's happened twice now. Twice in 5 years. I don't regret either one, nor was I looking for either one when it happened.
Having said that, I have personally come to the conclusion that you can't have both.

Happy Endings to me tends to mean a more permanent relationship.
I've known many...... My 2nd wife and I used to keep track of some couples we knew when we met and married. She was a Stripper when we met and we were together a few hours short of 20 years. By then, everyone before us had split up as well.
I know guys that left the boards and hobby with giirls they met and came back. I don't think I've heard of any of them ending happily.
One couple from ASPD about 12 years ago ran away together to never be heard of again.... or at least I've never come across either of them or anyone that has heard anything about either of them.
I've probably "dated" 5 providers over the years for between 3 and 6 months..... 4 ended on decent terms..... 1 was the most public board blowups witnessed on these types of sites. It got damn ugly.
