I wound up getting stood up by Shalyn at 3 AM on Valentine's Day because my super secret Valentine's Day card asked what I was doing at said time. The next day she sent me a usernote and we started chatting back and forth through those while I was at work. A few days went by and I worked up the balls to talk to her on AIM. We eventually started to progress further and further through the conversation mediums up to phone calls and texts. After talking for about a month, I told her that I loved her and she makes me the happiest man alive. A little over a month of us internet dating, I drove down to visit her. Made a terrible first impression on her family, but that was the least of my concerns that day. She threw me on the couch and kissed me to get me to stop talking about getting lost. We drove around, got food and ice cream, kissed a lot, and then I needed to get home. Came back a few weeks later for another visit, things got a little NC-17 then. A month or so after that, she moved to Erie with me over the summer after she graduated, and then we moved back down here.

She's stuck with me, but I'm a good boyfriend to the best of my knowledge. ^_^
