The First Time...

Hi,

Thanks for reading!

Where I was going with this was the very first date we had online.

What was it like, how did it get started, why did you bother do it anyway?

This whole thing kinda came up when I got a message from a friend I have not met yet from another site. She decided to just bag the entire concept. Her reasons seemed valid to me. But....

I will share this in this limited forum as discreetly as practical. When I first appeared online, I was on another site ( a very popular one, and many of you are on it too), back when it had IM capability. I had a profile posted, without a picture, for about three weeks, and got an instant message. We chatted, and it felt really good. Three weeks later, we met. The strange part of this is that she lived far away from me, and worked for an airline. At the time, I was working up to 14 hour per day, and did not really have time to do anything, but I made time to talk to her. It changed my life. I very soon became aware that what I had with her was what I had expected from my marriage, and was not getting. I felt as that I had really made a true friend. I was right about that, for once.

I do not know much, but I do know this:

She was something special, in every sense of the word. Was she what I wanted? No. Was I what she wanted? Probably not. We are still in touch, and she got married over a year ago. I was invited to the ceremony. Our friendship has lost nothing, but what we gave each other cannot be normally measured. We gave each other something that many consider abnormal, or reserve for their pets. We were able to love each other unconditionally, and respect the decisions we made.

Maybe more later, maybe not.

Enjoy!

You might be. I am not clear on the intent of yout comment. was I making it ok, or was my conduct so far out of line that it might minimize yours?

Actually, in this example there were no losers, only winners. She is happier than she has ever been, and I am too.
