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! Kathleen |
