This is how me and my girlfriend Tisha met. (Written by Toni)

It all started at the beginning of April 1998. I got my internet access and started to surf the web. I tried all the different chats. But I liked the mIRC chat the best. I met her on the russian chat of all the places, we talked for a while and became friends, then we talked almost everyday and started to develop feelings for each other. At the same time me and a friend of mine had planned a trip to California. And i asked her if she would like to meet me in person, and she said yes. I was very happy:). Finally when we left for California we were very excited, cause my friend was also meeting a girl from the net for the first time. He met his girl first, at the SF airport. I remember when we were waiting for her and her friend to come, hehehehe, my friend was SOOO nervous, he almost cracked. But it was so nice when they first met. Ok it was a bit stale at first but once they got over it they were like made for each other. Anyway we stayed in SF for a bout a week and headed down to LA where my gal lives. We were supposed to arrive at her place around 3pm, but got lost and stopped a few times on the way to shop, so we were late, I was a nervous wreck, but when i finally met her, Oh My God !, it was great. We stayed for a little while and left for Las Vegas, I had never been to Vegas, and WOW ! ! !, it blew me away. We stayed for a couple of days, and got to know each other a little better :). Everything couldnt have worked out better than it did, we had the greatest time. When i finally had to come home (for christmas) it was hard, very hard. But i decided to come back after christmas, and i did. I stayed for a little over a month. And what can I say "IT WAS GREAT". Tisha came to Sweden for three weeks, in Feb-Mar 1999. And me and my friendīs showed her Stockholm. She is coming back in the middle of June again, WOOOHOOOO ! ! !. And I cant wait, but we are having some dificulties with the plane ticket :(, cause it is almost sold out. And the tickets that are left are VERY expencive. But I always say "Dont worry everything is going to be allright", and it does. And thatīs how I met my girlfriend. It is a little short but I am not any good in writing stories. Take care yaīll. I love you sweetie.



This is how me and my boyfriend met (Written by Tisha)

In the beginning of March 1998 I moved back to California from Flagstaff Arizona. I moved in with my mom and enrolled myself into school at DeVry institute of Technology. I was trying to make a new life for myself, and this was just the beginning. One weekend at the end of March my mom and I went to visit my brother who lives in Northern California with his wife and beautiful daughters. While we were there my brother helped me build a computer with extra computer parts he had and money that my mom helped with. We were able to put together a cheap computer that worked good enough to get online and do school work. As soon as I got home I located a internet provider and got online. I had chatted many times before and still had many friends online. When I went online I would go to visit these friends. I stayed away from new chat partners. I had been through so much in the last six months with relationships and friendships that I was not ready to socialize with anyone. When I would go into the chat rooms' people that I did not chat to before would want to chat. Unfortunately I would not talk back to them, until one day when a man started to chat to me and I had the urge to chat back. The day I decided to chat with this man was the best decision of my life. It all started in the Russian channel on Mirc (an Internet chat program). I remember him finding out that I was from California and wanting to know all about California, because he was planning a trip here in the near future with his best friend. From there the friendship started. We talked for hours about California and other popular places to visit. The chatting did not stop there. We continued on day after day talking about many things mostly California though. We started writing emails to each other almost everyday. We would plan to meet on the chat or just tell each other what was happening in our real lives. We confided in each other our thoughts, opinions and anything else that came to mind. He told me about himself, and I told him about me. We exchange pictures. We became real friends. Although I did not know him in real life, I considered him a very good friend. After sending many emails and exchanging pictures he took our friendship one step further by calling me on the phone. I can remember talking to him and laughing so hard I was crying. I can remember feeling his warmth over the phone and hearing it in his voice. Even though he was a world away from me, it felt like he was next door. It was the greatest phone call I ever received in my life. When I was done talking to him I felt strange and different. I stopped seeing the guy I was dating, and started falling for him. I did not want to admit it at first because he was so far away and I did not know him in real life. It was just too much to believe in. I had been hurt before by Internet love and what made me think this was going to be any different? Maybe my heart knew more than my mind did. The one thing my mind did know was that he was planning a trip to California and we were planning to meet. It first started with the plans to meet at Magic Mountain and spend the day there. Months later after talking more on the phone and sending more emails we both started to have feeling for each other. It was really hard for me to believe and admit too. I tried my best to fight off all the feelings I was having, but his charming, unselfish and caring nature won over in the end. In the end we planned to meet at my place where he and his friends would come and pick me up then go to Vegas. When he arrived in California he stayed in San Franciso for about a week before he came down to get me. I had school at the time and he did not want me to miss any. I however went nuts for the whole week he was in San Franciso. I wanted to get in a car and drive up there. I did not want to stay in school when all I could think about was meeting him. The week seemed to take forever until Friday came. On Friday I went to school and took a nice quiz, which I could not concentrate on, and then rushed home. He was supposed to be at my place in the early afternoon. It did not happen that way. I drove myself crazy all day waiting for him to arrive so I could finally meet the man that has driven my mind mad. It was about 6:30 p.m. when I was heading to the bathroom to dry my eyes, cause I had been crying when a car pulled up outside. The moment I had been waiting for all day and I panicked. I was rushing to the restroom to lock myself in there when the front door pulled open. He was lucky it opened, because I thought it was locked and was not going to answer it. I was just walking by the front door when it opened and he told me to stop. That is when I discovered I was the lucky one. I was very lucky indeed, in walked the most beautiful man, inside and outside, I ever met. I was shocked, and did not want to believe it. He came up to me and hugged me. I was so nervous. I just wanted to go hide. This is the man I feel in love with that I have told my life too, that fell in love with me. What was going to happen now? We went to Vegas and San Franciso and had a great time. He went back to Sweden and 18 days later came back to California to spend more time with me before he started school. It was great. He stayed over a month and we got to know each other better. Then about one month later I was able to go to Sweden and visit him. It was the first time I had been out of the United States and I had the best time. Sweden is so beautiful and so is Toni. I was there for almost 3 weeks and then I came home. Since I have been home there has not been one day that I do not think of him or write him emails. He is always on my mind. I am just so thankful that I met him and started chatting to him otherwise I would be missing the most special person in my life. I love you Toni. Thank you for bringing love back in my heart and in my life. There are no words that can describe how good you make me feel.
