Obviously there's still the narrow margin of "living in the same place at the same time", but that margin is much wider than "be in this exact game server at this exact time of day on this exact day".
The margin is wider but the number is smaller. You can be on a hundred different game servers at various times, but you're only born and grow up in an area once.
And some are big “had to happen” (right college choice, wrong WoW faction choice, etc) and others are “the specific had to happen but would have eventually” - if you’re both playing horde on the same campus you’d eventually meet in game or IRL, for example.
