Some probably have met people from SS because they wanted to. But I am rather talking about accidentally meeting one. For example someone from work, in the elevator, bus or someone you see at college. It probably depends to what we define as meeting. I am thinking about what was the "closest" person you have accidentally met from SS. With closest I mean someone you meet at work is closer than someone you see in the bus for some seconds.
I count members, lurkers or even hidden pro-lifers to that category (from SS).

The likelihood probably deprends on the country. I am not from the US or UK there are not as many people from my country in this forum.
Moreover I am socially quite isolated. Even more in the past. I am really not sure about the answer to this question. The website should create an app to track such accidental meetings. You could find new friends by it.
I am obviously joking. Yeah Google Play Store and Apple would make this app disappear after 5 seconds.

I probably have met at least one person from SS in real life. I could imagine in the bus or train. Good they can't identify me by that. This website really should create Sanctioned suicide merch (as The Sun has falsely claimed it.) We could identify each other way better when we meet on the streets. Once again I am only joking. Merch of SS would not be a good idea.

I am grasping for something interesting to say. But I don't how I shall answer the question of the title. I am not sure what do you think?

No I haven't personally due to distance, but would to with a few close ss friends I FaceTime all day. Without any problem, shame im not in America. But we made arregments to meet if I ever go there cause I have relatives in Boston and New Jersey. Still far away, but always wanted to take a greyhound bus!

I was close. There was a female user who was interested in me so she messaged me to take the conversation to Discord and even though I shouldn't have, I embarrassingly fell in love after talking a bit more. It turned out we were only about 20-30 minutes away from each other so if I had had more freedom to go where I want (and if the pandemic hadn't been a thing), I would have likely met up with her in person but she soon moved to another state, left the site, and cut things off with me for my own good.

I don't think I would ever attempt to meet with any SS users again though unless I happen to come across one but I doubt it.

I imagine I've at least passed by someone on the street or on the train once or twice, that has also used this site. As far as people I know irl though I have my doubts, especially since this is a relatively new site

Yeah same as me,as me I know members here for 2 years already, we dream of doing so many things together. I took a greyhound bus once from Montreal to Boston at night with a stop in customs and one in New Hampshire where the ciggues were cheaper. I was a smoker at the time,

That's a long ride. I was in New York for Thanksgiving last year but just took the Metro :hihi:

I like to getting to know new people. There are a couple of people in the States I need to catch up with, but nothing to do with SS

When I'm on public transport I can't help but peek at other people's phones just in case they are on this site. The chances of that are miniscule. I don't even know why I do it.

My best friend frequented this forum, although I found out about it long after her death, does that count?

What are most people looking at on their phones while using public transport?

Let me guess… porn, Tiktok, insta.

Yes, May I ask how she died?

Yeah I met this really cool American girl, we both hated Montreal, so she was my travel buddy, we were around the same age. We have a picture together. But forgot her name can't find her on social media, but I've quit FB and instagram anyway. Montreal is not for me, I believe it was 12 hours.Mia love Toronto and Vancouver much more.

I'm sure I have. Lots of people use this site so it's pretty much guaranteed you've crossed paths with another user if you live in an English-speaking city. I'll never know for sure though. Most people don't exactly wear Sanctioned Suicide T-shirts.

I've been to most of the major cities in that area and Montreal seemed safer and less gritty to me than Toronto, New York, Boston, etc. Haven't been to Vancouver but I imagine it's similar to Seattle, which is okay but expensive.

What did you dislike about Montreal?
