Someone shy here on NN contacted me in the beginning of February. His profile is totally empty, just the kind that you don't like to find, when someone sends you a pm...
However, I have a tendency to respond to those pm's too, although it's a bit more difficult, as you don't know much about them, so starting a decent conversation is virtually impossible. But I seem to usually find something to say, anyway...
So I responded, and then he contacted me back. He said enough of the right things, that I responded back again. We started exchanging pm's here on NN regularly, and he sent me a few fuzzy small pics. But I could see in the pics, that everything was there I liked, and nothing that I didn't... Then he took off, for business in another city, and has been there ever since, and will continue to be for a while. We've since moved our conversation to yahoo, because NN's pm system is rather antiquated, and have been developing a real open and honest friendship.
We still haven't met, and yet I'm very excited, and it's a nice feeling! I haven't had the sort of feedback, that whats-his-name is currently giving me, in years, and it's so good to hear.
I think that a significant event may be in my future, and I'm very excited about it. And just had to share this info with you all!
I never expected something like this, when I joined up NN. I signed up, because I love being part of the scenery here at NN. I have acquired some really nice friends, from all over the planet. People that I most likely will never have the pleasure of being to eat a meal with, sit on the beach with, or just sit on the living room sofa together, and enjoy a quiet afternoon in front of the television, watching a movie. I would really like to, with many of you here, but let's keep a little bit of reality in play here.
Did I mention, that I'm feeling a little extra happy these days? I know that I'm walking a little more tall these days, and a constant extra edge to my smile. A couple of my friends and coworkers have noticed, even though I haven't said anything. I've been wanting to keep my trap shut, until I get to actually meet this guy, and have lunch with him, but I'm getting a little too excited, to be able to do that!
'Nuff said, for now...
Tune in later, for another chapter, hopefully one of many more happy ones to come...
