Have you ever Met-up with an online Buddy?

Online dating, which has been referenced in previous posts, is very different from online buddying.  For one, the very reason to type the message is to online buddy or "baptize junior," as I used to tell the gals on Christian Singles. 

Making friends through ideas we write and send, to the point we decide to get together and talk in person, may be the best thing that has come from this or any media.  It's seriously cool.  Almost letter in the mail cool.

One of my aunts and I have been writing lately and sharing old family photos.  It is pretty cool.  I was a big letter writer back in the day.

I would love to find a hand written note and a check for $5 in the mailbox.

The Dish would send me cards with notes when we were dating.  That, and her being a 10,5,3 on the hot, crazy, bitch scale, is what made me lose interest in all others.  The online buddy to end all online buddying.

Yep. Several times.

I actually married someone I met online but this was all the way back in 1999. Didn't work out and she's turned into a drugged out drama queen.

I met a couple of other online friends in 2007-2009 and that was when my life was REALLY chaotic. I didn't wind up staying friends with either of them, but because of them (and other issues) I wound up moving to Houston where I was actually able to get my life together.

As of now, I actually have a local facebook atheist group that gets together from time to time. Haven't done a lot with them lately, though; kids keep me busy.

PM me your address.  I can maybe spare five bucks and a stamp.  But hurry, the price of stamps seems to go up on the regular these days.

It has to come from your aunt, or similar lady, who no longer remembers me, but has a name and birthday in her address book.

I met my husband on a forum. We've been married 7 years now.
