My skin, that is. Maybe my hair, too. My hands have always been really rough, even as a child. My mom blames the sandbox, but I don't know. I moisturise frequently, but it doesn't seem to help much. And although I feel like today's a good hair day, I still feel like a before in a makeover - frizzy, big hair that overwhelms the face. I am almost ready to cut it. But then I told myself I'd keep my hair until I turned 30. For that milestone, I'd chop it all off!! I was on the phone with Tara for a little over an hour last night, so I missed pretty much the whole last period of the hockey game :cry: But what can I do? :lol: Talk with someone vs. watch tv...Hmm...not exactly a tough choice!! We didn't have all that much to catch up on, so I don't know how we talked for that long!! I was talking to her about Wayne, too. She just doesn't get meeting people from the Internet thing. She can't imagine getting to know someone without actually meeting them in person. I think it's just one of those things you have to do to get, maybe? I agree you can't get to know someone completely until you're with them in person, though. I think even by writing to someone, you can tell if there's any clicking going on or not. People in my mom's generation think that the Internet is dangerous, and everyone on there is a psycho. "How do you know what they're really like??" I ask the same question about someone you meet in a bar. However, I do admit I wasn't so careful when I was younger (late teens, early 20s). I do think some people get wrapped up in their 'net life, but I think I've got a healthy grip. I'm definitely a seasoned chatter/forum dweller, yet someone who has interests outside of the web. |

A few years ago I met a few people from a chat room I used to frequent. Some are still friends today. I met a couple of nice guys that developed into something - but it was long distance so in the end it did not work out. I also met a couple of losers, but I think I instinctively knew that before hand.
Then I got really busy with Allie and I kind of gave up the whole internet thing and any other kind of thing...sigh

Cheer up :) At least you have Allie :) Just watch your health and maybe pick up one new hobby for now, and get back into the swing of things ;)
There are only a few people that I've known for a long period that I originally met through the 'net. I usually take the POV that they're going to be just people to chit chat with.

The Internet is just another type of technology. People were probably saying the same thing about the telephone a few generations ago. How could you possibly know somebody you've only chatted with on the phone?
I think if you dislike somebody on the Internet, you will probably dislike the person in real life. If you like the person on the Internet, you might like the person, or you might have gotten the wrong idea about something.
As shallow as it seems, you are better off with at least a picture first. In real life, you can see how he carries himself, how he communicates in a more spontaneous situation, and how he comes across. And you can also tell if he has a nice rear end.
