Dave and Shelley's Story Or How We Found Our Soulmate Online
Part 2
Dave and Shelley begin to build an online relationship as, "friends only."
"Still struggling with the ramifications of my last divorce, having Wilma to "talk to" (actually e-mail) was the most effective treatment and/or therapy that I could have received and ultimately led to my emergence as a whole person, and return to mental health. We had so many things in common. She had felt every pain that I felt (and then some) and where was I going to find someone I could relate to who had been married as many times as I had and still had a decent outlook on life?, Why the World Wide Web, of course."
"I may have helped Fred along but he was also giving me some insights into my own life. He was going through traumatic experiences that affected him in a negative way and I had huge hurdles and traumas to recover from that were related to my last marriage.
He sees the conversations as directed toward him, but every word that I typed to him applied to me as well. There were many similarities in our past relationships where we were victimized. We had to work these things out in our heads before we could ever think about "being serious" with anyone."
"At times it was hard because we were limited to one e-mail per weekday only. Sometimes, I wanted to talk to her on the phone, or meet her, but she was intent on maintaining our relationship as it was. I was the first person to think that I might be interested in moving this to a romantic level, but it was certain that she was not, 'going there'."
"I could only e-mail once a day, during the week, because I didn't have a computer at home, only during the day at work. Fred only had computer access in the evenings so we were restricted to five e-mails per week.
There is no doubt about it, Fred became my closest and dearest friend. I was able to intimate my frustrations to him and he was very empathetic and supportive, although we did not use specifics. Like, when I'd have a problem with a particular person, I would tell him in vague enough generalities that he would have enough information to give me his point of view, which was great.
He knew that my computer was at work but I did not tell him where I worked, although we did discover that although we were using the World Wide Web to communicate that we were basically in the same town."
"That's right. At that time, I was in Hoquiam, Washington and she was in Aberdeen, Washington, two towns right next to each other separated by a single street. I later relocated with my 20-year-old son to Aberdeen and took a job at a local Internet company."
How long did this 5-day-a-week e-mail-a-thon go on?
"Two years. Two long years."
"We had both grown so much over this period of time and were able to solve the major life circumstances that held us back from moving forward. So, this time when I suggested that we meet, she said, 'Yes'."
