Happy First Face Day, Sweetie

[tvordlj]

One year ago on this date, i got off a train (an hour later than expected as it happened) and crossed a busy concourse. He didn't see me at first because someone had asked him for directions. The next thing i knew, our faces were inches apart and time stood still. It was the first face to face meeting with gramie_dee and the week exceeded our expectations. We decided that July 12th would be our "first face day" anniversary and he actually sent me a card to mark it :) We're still looking forward. More and more i've heard of successful relationships that started on the internet. Yes, a few still fail in the end but that's not any different than those where people have met offline.

True, you certainly do have to see someone drunk to know if they're a thug or not! You can learn a lot about someone when they're tipsy.

I didn't exactly know Suzi off-line or on-line! I guess I met her on-line, but it was only because my then-boyfriend who I met off-line wanted to shag her offered to help her put her curtains up. But I did get to know her on-line first, so I guess so!

Technically I would not be here at all today, and probably wouldn't have a livejournal were it not for the Internet! I'd just missed a train (something I very rarely do) and went back to the university, logged onto IRC and met a chap who if it weren't for meeting me that evening, would not have come back. He eventually convinced me to move away from Cornwall to be with him - otherwise I am sure I would still be there! Okay, so he turned out to be a psycho, but as you know, most people don't! :-)
