Astenon I love your since of humor. I laughed as I read your thread. I hope that is ok.

"Mind you, I'd still have to get over my shyness to talk to the poor girl after we're married so maybe it's unfair to subject her to a life of silence"

Isn't there aomething somewhere about silence being a vertue. I could definiately see myself w/ a quiet individual. Oh how nice that would be.

I'm shy to except for here. It's something about getting to avoid face to face rejection and finding safety in not having to be so fully exposed. We have no idea how each other look, how crooked one's teeth are, how thick one's glasses are, how big boned one might be and that makes us all on a level playing field. We are all gorgeous right.

Lacking facial expressions and body language we have to primarily focus on written language. What a blessing that is. Because when I speak it is more of a "Open mouth insert foot" kinda deal. And my body language says nervous wreck. So no wonder we are fairly successful here.

I just want to take a moment and think you for your thoughtful words in some of my previous posts. You are a sweet individual.
