Hello, your email
   said to me
You dont know
   me but...
I had to laugh
   and so read on
I read how a "friend"
   had told you
All about me
   it seems
They told you I
   was a dreamer
A "romantic fool"
   was their EXACT words
It made you smile
   and so you thought
You'd take a chance
   and write
Would I like to
   chat?
By that time I was
   ROTFLMAO!!!!!!
How could I resist
   your email plea
So I clicked on reply
   and answered
With my internet info
   I have ICQ MSN and YAHOO
Take your pick and
   come chat with me
Imagine my surprise
   and my pleasure
When next I found
   myself online
To get messages
   flooding my puter
You'd added my name
   to all three
I was visiting
   my Passionate friends
When I heard that chime
   the first time
Your name on my screen
   made me smile
And we talked for
   hours it seemed
I have a picture, you
   tell me, I'll send it
If you want, its not
   important to me
But I was pleased with
   your sweet little smile
And your eyes caught me
   up in your gaze
I have one too, I can
   send if you like
I'm a man, was
   your laughing reply
And we've talked
   everyday for hours
About your work, my kids
   our lives
Then you surprised me
   with this invitation
Lets meet, honey I'll
   make the drive.

(this story will continue)

I wish you luck...but also want to ask you to be safe. Make the meeting on YOUR terms. Public place, middle of the day. Tell your best friend to call the police if you don't call her within 30 minutes of getting there. And if all goes well, your new friend will stand next to you while you make the call. If not, make the call, tell him you have to go. Then leave. And be sure you aren't followed. Sorry to rain on your parade like this but you have to protect yourself. Please let us know the rest.

Yes, be careful, this is going to be very interesting.  I say "don't generalize" but still, you know, you have to be careful.
keep writing, we'll be reading I'm certain.
I'm sure all the other ladies at Passions feel the same way!
