So, back in the middle of November, I met a Norwegian guy online through an internet community I'm involved in. It turned out we actually had a lot in common, including a birthday, and for about 3 months (until just after Valentine's Day) we talked almost every day and exchanged pictures and a few e-mails. I can't really speak to what he may or ( Read more... )

Last night I was reminded of something I had nearly forgotten and now I can't stop thinking about it ( Read more... )
