For me the getting to know you was chatting on the app, I chatted with my now fiance for a few weeks before we actually met up at a restaurant, I felt like I knew him well enough that a restaurant was fine

Glad it worked out for you.

But I can't help but wonder what if when you met in person it wasn't what you were expecting?

Would it have felt like a waste of texting effort?
