I received a very heartwarming letter from this girl I met on LJ who wants to know me better. It was an introductory letter, you know the kind of letter you write to someone you want to make friends with, so you are mainly introducing yourself, things you enjoy, where you hang out, just basic stuff about yourself before you delve into the private points.

It touched me in that, I can never go out on a limb to intitate friendship with someone online. I often think, what if they say NO, or they ignore my mail, then what happens, what if they are somewhere talking about me, saying how much of a nerd/jerk I am, how would I feel? As you can see I don't take rejection well. But it's all good, I replied her, and intimated her on the facets of my being, none quite so consequential, just the facts that have kept me going all these so many years of my life. It's nice to make a new friend, especially online where everyone hides under a facade of: I am 22, beautiful, with a body like Pamela Anderson.
