He & I are friends on another site. He IMs me JUST AS FRIENDS. When I told her this, she got very jealous. I don't have any romantic feelings for the guy. He's just a friend. We both told her to get her own account. But she always says she doesn't have time for the computer.
We've had some major arguments before, but never violent. And one of us always contact the other either that night or the next day. Hasn't happened this time. I don't feel I'm at fault & refuse to call her. She accused me of flirting with her man. I did NO such thing!!
She did pull over & order me out of her car. But when she apparently saw I wasn't budging, she drove me to my car. When I got out, she sped off & even burned rubber.
Thank you. No, she didn't die, if you were wondering. We had a HUGE fight... over a guy. STUPID!!! Best friends shouldn't lose each other over such things!
There are many people who've inspired me throughout my lifetime. When I was young, I lived with my grandparents for a year. I quickly became Grandpa's little girl. His kindness to me gave me strength & self-worth. He was the 'dad' I'd always dreamed of, since my own father was an alcoholic.
My grandmother was a strong woman. She became a widow in her 50s & worked well into her 70s. She was a good God-fearing woman, who taught me morals & ideals.
My mother was one of the strongest, most independent women I've ever known. She taught me to stand on my own & depend solely on myself. Now, I'm not saying that I never depend on others... what I mean by that is that if I want to do something, I'll do it & not fear.
My step-father took on 3 teenage kids when he met my mother. When they first met, I couldn't stand him because I accused him of "breaking up our family". I grew to love that man more than words can explain. He is still one of the most wonderful men in my eyes. He's always been there for all of us if we ever needed anything. And he's been a wonderful "Papa" to our children. He's loved & admired by our entire family. He treated my mom like gold up to her dying day. God blessed us with him.
I'm right there with you on that, venere. The broken heart feels the same, whether it be from real life or cyberworld. When you give yourself to someone in your mind, their loss can be devastating.
I fell, but hesitate to use the word love, J. There were definite feelings there. And I felt many emotions in RL. I would never say one can't fall in love without actually meeting the person. I personally know what can happen. I also have friends whom I've met on here that I'm VERY close with & we've said "I love you" numerous times to each other. I've been awakened by some cyber friends in the middle of the night, crying to me, just needing someone to talk/vent to. Yes emotions are real... very real. I'd never deny that.
I just have a hard time saying I'd fall in love with someone without meeting them in the flesh first. But nothing's impossible, right?
Good point, J. But I think that what people mean is a one-on-one in the flesh meeting. One doesn't have to see that person to feel the love, but to personally meet, touch, be in the same room, etc. I felt very strongly for someone on here, but I wouldn't have called it love.
