I met Mary back in 2001, I had just turned 21, and we had met on Yahoo chat on one of those state specific chat rooms. After talking for a brief amount of time, we found out we were relatively close, less than 40 minutes separating us. We grew closer over the coming weeks, and soon, I had told her that I wanted to meet, which, she agreed to. Our first meeting was in a public park, halfway for both of us. Physically, nothing happened, but the chemistry was immediate, and very apparent.
