Home sick today but I can do a little writing, so here are some of my online dating stories. I think that while I was going through the separation and the D I was so shell-shocked and insecure it took me a while to work up to a "real date"...LOL! So my first experience was w/ the e-mailing guy. (Found him on OK cupid)
I had posted a profile, and was getting a reasonable amount of views and responses, when EMG (E-mailing guy) started writing me. He lived about an hour away, and was an excellent writer. We began corresponding, long witty, engaging letters back and forth. Several messages a day. It was SO MUCH FUN! I felt so validated and it really was giving me a lift after the devastation of the breakup. So finally after about 3 months of this, we decided to meet. I had planned a nice picnic in our local Arboretum. But yes, he ding-dong-ditched me and never showed up. I was hurt and disappointed. In the end I think he was probably a married guy,
or a guy otherwise not available and he was just having fun. Honestly, I was having fun too, but because of that I do agree w/others that it is a good idea to meet sooner rather than later In Real Life.
