    Yes, by Skype but not in person yet. We are planning that.

    I've met my sisters (LOL) and some other people who I encouraged to join, but no one who I became friends with just from the site. That would be fun though! There are a few of my MFP pals that I seem to have a lot in common with. A few also live in my area, but we have yet to get together. It would sure be interesting! :laugh:

    I know a few people on here that I know in real life. Curiously, we all found it independently. My friend Elena and I found it the same day and joined the sdame day and didn't know it until we were talking later about it, "OMG! You too?"

    Two other friends of mine were here long before I joined. One I found becuse I mentioned the site to her and the other found me after seeing me causing havoc in the forums.

    As far as people I met here? Not yet. But I would imagine we will eventually.

    Well, two of my real life friends entered the site because I indicated to them. They created profiles here but don't acess anymore.

    One of my RLF entered later, and them I found her. Guess it's not really met MPF friends...

    I live out in the middle of nowhere in Ohio. I do not think anyone on MFP lives close to me. One day maybe I will meet other MFP members though!

    I knew several of my MFP friends before we all started MFP through local fitness channels. I haven't met anyone from MFP in person that I didn't already know prior.

    No, besides a few people who I knew before. I think it would be great to meet them, because I've only been on it a few months and there are about 5-7 that I am starting to feel really close to! I like MFP even better than FB because people seem more genuine on here and there's a common goal, which keeps it from being superficial and showy. I prefer a smaller, intimate circle of friends rather than a bunch of "friends" who don't really know me.

    I found a guy on the MFP forums in Feb of 2011, and we became online friends. We met IRL in March of 2011, and have been dating ever since! Just celebrated our 1 year anniversary 2 weeks ago :heart:
