Twelve years ago, I struck up a conversation online with a man on AOL who was in the same line of work I was , i.e. computers. He described himself as "an English gentleman and a lot more." I thought, oh, I bet he would be interesting to talk to.
We talked for 5 months and then one week, I happened to be in his area (Kansas City where he flew in to work every week) so we decided to have dinner while I was there.
We had exchanged photographs a couple months earlier so we knew what each other looked like. When we met, we were both sorely disappointed! I had cut my long hair into a short bob, and his picture was twelve years old! But we had dinner anyway and then we had dinner again the following evening.
Tomorrow, we will celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary.
