    First time meeting

    So we finally met a couple days ago outside a mall here. We pulled up in a taxicab and he was waiting a ways away outside. I honestly could not tell if it was him or not. I cannot remember faces at all no matter how hard I try, so the only way I can recognize people is by things I remember about them. He wasn't wearing what I expected and I didn't expect him to already be there, but he had a backpack which I knew he would, so I got out of the car and just looked at him until he finally looked up from his phone. His face was like "ahh, finally," so I definitely knew it was him. My sister grabbed my phone to video and I ran to hug him. Our heads went the exact same way and hit each other, so it was rather clumsy lol. My knees were knocking .
    For like the first 30 minutes, I struggled to comprehend that it was actually him---he looked and sounded so different from video! His voice gets deeper when he's nervous, and his face looked backward. Plus, he wasn't just a blip on a screen anymore...he was a whole huge person.
    Has anyone else had that feeling of wait...what? when they first met? Please don't tell me I'm alone in this

    When I met my SO at the airport like i'd said like a full sentence at her and she just sort of stared at me and was like "...you have a lisp in real life how have i not heard this before???" Apparently in the year we'd been talking on voice chatting she'd never noticed it at all and was so confused when she actually heard me talk haha. And you're definitely not alone, I always feel it feels totally surreal for like the first day and then it sort of sets in like um what this is a real person.

      When we first met, I just froze when I saw him at the airport and didn't know what to do and kept saying you're real?! and just trying to process it haha. So yeah you're definitely not alone! It's weird seeing someone in person that you're so used to seeing only on a screen!

              It's definitely been different! Both my sister and I have online classes and a storm knocked out our WiFi, and because of Holi we haven't been able to get it fixed. Mobile hotspots ftw I guess!

                  We haven't been allowed to go outside actually because there's too many cases of allergic reactions to harmful materials inside colors, and we'd probably be targeted as foreigners. But yeah, this is the one I've always wanted to see, so being inside during it hasn't been that exciting!

                    When we first met, I was looking for her in the airport.. I was quite tired after a 9 hours flight, but I was sure I'd recognize her, and I didn't see her in the arrivals hall ! ... She gently tapped on my shoulder, from behind, and I was surprised, but very happy to see her. I recognized her instantly, from her looks and her sense of humor.

                      This reminds me of when i first met my ex for the first time. I'd been traveling for like 16 hours and was pretty out of it and was just sort of following people and hoping i'd find my suitcase. I followed the signs to the luggage hall and was going down the escalator when i saw these two girls smiling at me and holding a camera and i was like just like aw they look happy i wonder who they're waiting for- omg that's her and her friend! thankfully this realisation happened rather fast and i was ready to hug her by the time i reached the bottom. I just remember being way more concerned about the fact I hadn't collected my luggage (As i've never been to an airport in my life where the public are allowed to e in the baggage hall) and i'd gone the wrong way somewhere than the fact she was there and real lol.
