Well, hello, one and all. I thought I might as well chime in on this for my very first post. I met my late wife in a chat room in 1999, she lived just an hour away from me. We talked for six hours that first night, and got married eight days later.
BTW, as background information, I suffer from anxiety attacks that flare up in social situations like clubs (sigh). We had almost six years together, years I wouldn't trade for anything. I'm still trying to meet someone new, though, six years after losing her so, that just out and out sucks.
Anyhow, that's the short version and I'm glad I found this little corner of the Internet.
