That's too bad Ghosty - chin up!
Didn't realise you were on a downer - sorry lovey - I wouldn't have ripped the p1$$ so much yesterday if I'd realised
I find that the best way is not to view the internet as a means of finding a soul mate... but as a means of having a cheap way of socialising with people you might not be so likely to meet in your day to day life. I've made some great RL mates which started off as internet chats. Some of which have turned out to be closer and more supportive friends than people I've known for years and years in RL.
It's good to take some time out from it though - internet stuff can get very intense and it's a proper time-gobbler!
P.S. You'll always be my #1 customer
