We had glanced at each other at parties a 2-3 times, because we have a lot of friends in common. When a mutual friend left town, he motioned us to go on a date, since he "didn't want any of us to be lonely when he left". So after some nagging and coercion, we did. After three dates we did the thing, and then more datesish, we realised we really liked each other. And here I am, five years later, and we've been living together for three years. Never been happier. Our mutual friend won't shut up about his amazing matchmaker skills ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
