Knowing Kate and Northernlion personally, I can tell you that they are a great couple, and both absolutely wonderful, caring people. I also know that Ryan works an insane amount, more than makes it possible to go out to meet people on a regular basis. Kate is a pretty outgoing, outspoken person, so it doesn't suprise me that she reached out.Northernlion met kate after she watched his dark souls videos and reached out.
I'm not gonna assume anything nefarious. Mostly pretty sheltered dudes who outside of the internet dont have a lot of skill or experience in meeting women. To have a person you find attractive reach out to you is almost certainly something that didnt happen much, if ever, before their channels.

Huh, I never knew this. I always assumed they met when NL was teaching in Korea.

They're also very cute together. <3
I think it's more the sight unseen thing that baffles me. I might be superficial but I'd need to see a person before I considered them.Imagine you have 10,000 subscribers. If even 1% of them are interested in you romantically, you suddenly have a pool of 100 people to consider dating. That's likely far above the average person's dating pool.
This gets much larger quite quickly if you have 100,000 or 1,000,000 subscribers.

I'm sure you checked their profile to see if you were attracted to em though, right?I'm not even famous and I've dated a few people who slid up in my DMs on FB and Insta.
Yeah I never took the loneliness aspect of it.When you consider the amount of work that goes into trying to make a YouTube channel successful and what they're losing out on in terms of a physical social component, it makes perfect sense.
Also most YouTubers are doing things they love and or are passionate about so to find someone who respects that is enticing

And I think people are taking it the wrong way, I'm not out here saying this is a "wrong" way to meet lol. Just very unorthodox and one I wouldn't consider myself.
Nice!Well, I married a person I met in vidya game forum 2x years ago when we still in middle school.
It's just like fall in love with pen friend.
How did it go from just complimenting her art to private messaging and then finding out what you both look like and then going on a date? Sounds fascinating, to go from faceless to the real deal.
That's so sweet and thanks for the detailed breakdown, best of success in your relationship!Well, she drew a lot of Animal Crossing art, and New Leaf was coming out soon, so it went from commenting on her art to DMing about video games/Animal Crossing in general, then playing New Leaf together when that came out, then friending each other on Facebook after we were pretty comfortable, eventually Skype, then EVENTUALLY eventually plane tickets. I think due to the circumstances of us meeting, on top of the fact that I live in America and she lives in Germany, we weren't approaching the situation for potential romance at all. It wasn't until a few years into knowing each other where we were like "hey, this might work".
I don't think a lot of people like moving as slowly as her and I do, but our relationship really, really benefited from having a solid foundation. And when you live on other sides of the world, you don't have much else to do with each other but chat and play video games, hahaha.
Yeah I'd be curious as to how much that stuff is going on as it's mostly unseen.And I would argue that the YTers who sleep around with viewers and are pieces of shit is higher than those that end up getting married.
