Yes, I've met two people off of the internet. One to trade Yu-Gi-Oh cards with and one that I met doing coding work with her and running a board together. We knew each other in the early 2000s and we still keep in contact and do some projects together to this day.
 
If it's anyone I've initially met online that I've later come across in real life, sadly not. It's usually the other way around for me even though I don't have many IRL friends.
 
Totally. I met a salesman I spoke to online via their website's chat feature when I went to the store to pick up the stuff I ordered for work.

Does that count?
 
Yes. I met a girl off of Myspace that lived where I did.
I did that once a million years ago. Didn't work out.

Did they live nearby or did you travel to meet them?

I don't have a ton of IRL friends either. My crew is pretty much just my partner and my daughter.
Still this. The 2 I had been friends on AOL.
Do you still keep in touch?

From a forum, social media, dating site or something else?

We actually met on Omegle (I know I know) then we're friends on other social media and then we finally met irl
 
I've never used Omegle but I know its notorious for being bad :p

Oh it's bad alright :P I don't think I'd go there anymore (not really because of my ex). A bunch of pervs. Really not a good place to meet someone, they almost always end up being a creep haha

I'll bet. Good thing you didn't end up connecting with a psycho on there. :P :run:
