Hello Andrea!
Having read the article in the July issue of the Internet Kalauz I was certain that I had to share my experience with you and the readers. My experience was not as deeply moving as Victoria's but perhaps this too is interesting.

In a nutshell then. There were several times in the past when I met someone on the internet with whom we had a good understanding, but this was completely different. Thomas and I met on a German chat line accidentally back in March sometime. We noticed immediately that we were on the same wavelength and for weeks we've had virtual dates almost on a daily basis. If for some reason we could not meet then there would be e-mails going back and forth to make up for the lack. On the chat-line we behaved as though we were going together, but we both knew that because of the distance between us we did not have a chance. He is tied to Germany by his university studies and my studies bind me here. Despite this, we both feel we would be a couple if it weren't for the distance. We spoke on the phone also and if we were completely honest with each other, we had to admit that we both spent a lot of time thinking of the other, regardless of the fact that we each have other "real" commitments.

We are tentatively planning that perhaps we would meet next year, but that is far ahead in the future. Kind regards from
Vera
