Some of the best experience over the last 10 years on the internet were falling in love with people I would be talking to for months.
Some of the worst moments on here were also falling in love and getting my heart broken.
One in particular was a man in London I was talking with for nearly a year. We just got on on every level, I fell head over heels. We talked endlessly on the phone. Hours and hours of laughing and bonding, sharing our days. He told me he had fallen in love with me too but the distance would be a problem. I had commitments here and he, there.
He said he never wanted to lose touch with me because I filled his heart, but he had met someone living close to him and decided to live with her because he didn't want to be alone... We both cried and I never wanted to feel that much pain again. It hurt just as much to feel his pain as my own.
We communicated for a long time after that and he asked me to go over to spend time with him, but I couldn't do that to someone who was tryng to have a relationship with someone else. Eventually I stopped answering his mails and phone calls, although it took nearly allthe willpower I had....
I have made some good friends on here, some of which I have been friends with for 8 or more years. We meet from time to time and share stuff in mails, so that side of being on here is a plus.
