There’ve been a number of DoperxDoper couples over the years, including several marriages and some Doper babies. It seems like every other Dopefest resulted in a new couple batting their eyelashes at each other. But it seems like I haven’t heard of any new Doper couples in the last couple of years – or maybe I’m just behind on my gossip. Be that as it may, I invite you, SDMB couples, to out yourselves! Who’s dating who? Any engagements? Furtive love letters? 😃 ---

My fiance has been lurking for years, he actually had an account, but was banned. Something about putting sprite in a fishbowl to kill the fish? I’m not sure, I just know that he and his buddy were drunk when posting, and then they were banned shortly thereafter. He told me about this place, and here I am! ---

My fiancee (as of a couple weeks ago) is a Doper, but I introduced her to the SDMB, so I’m not sure if it counts. ---

Aha, and [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=219522) is said fish-killing thread. He’s lurked ever since. Well, lurked while posting a legit question or two from my account. When one of us gets quiet while web surfing the first question is either, “So what’s good on the Dope?” or “Dopin’ it up?” 😃 ---

**Montfort** and **Anniz** were another U.S./Europe pairing, but I’m not sure where in the U.S. Montfort was from. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/any-recentish-doper-couples/574746.md?page=2)
