Kara and I are going steady on The Facebook

It's not everyday that you find an e-mail from a Miss Kara REQUESTING a online relationship. Right now, she's just calling it 'Friends.' I can understand why she might want to define our relationship as 'Friends' in the public light of the internet: I've cleverly deduced her mother is probably on The Facebook, so I can understand why she would want to be discrete. But the fact remains. I am a boy. She is a girl. She is my friend. That makes her my girlfriend.

I'm somewhat on cloud 9; and the only thing that brings me back to earth is the simple fact that I haven't seen or heard from my new girlfriend in years. I'm not sure where she lives now. I don't have her number. Since she hasn't responded to my many invites to Mafia Wars and Farmville, I would define it as a distance based relationship. It's what makes us work; her absence only makes me want her more! We've only been boyfriend/girlfriend for (let me check) 18 minutes now, but I can tell this is the start of a budding relationship full of many children and joint tax returns.
