Let's see.... I was a LCPL in the US Marines. I was stationed at Camp Lejeune NC.

I had always been depressive, never had many friends. When the other guys would go out, I would stay in and watch TV or play on the Internet (1999!!! Dial-up!!!) I was always the DD. I got called at 3am every Sat, Sun, Mon to go get guys from the bars.

I met my now ex-wife online. I was unable to meet people in social settings. You'd laugh, but I was paralyzed with fear of walking up to a girl and just saying hi. Yet give me someone I knew and I'd never shut up.
