Neopets leads to love
A couple who met as kids on Neopets.com ended up getting married as adults. Kristin Andrews-Karr and Michael Andrews-Karr both joined “a role-playing guild on the site called the ‘Evil Jellies,’” BuzzFeed reported. While the two played in the guild, they both only knew each other by their usernames.
They later AIM to keep in touch and fell in love and kept evolving their friendship as they grew up.
