I think for most people who would happen to answer that they met there SO in there So's country, then most likely the members profile (of course if properly filled in) will give you the answer as to what country they met in. :)

YMMV

Online. Only because I broke my foot (whilst buying fish in Malta...lol) and spent 6 weeks in a foot to knee cast. I joined some forums to kill the time...and it took off from there.

So, breaking your foot CAN be beneficial... :lol:
