(I know this is a bit long but please, read it...)
Hi, I am catherine, this is not the typical e-mail you receive saying "ohh, i saw your picture, i wanna meet you!" it's not like that at all just that i wanna tell you a short story i hope you read and don't think i'm insane. everything i say here it's true.
3 years ago, i met a guy in Odigo messenger (the first with display-picture service), he's dutch from Stiens. i sent him a picture of me and so did he... i thought he was cute. Some months later, i sent him several pictures so i asked for returning, and so he did, he sent me such pictures that i just got like "wow.. what a guy" but the pictures where different. it didn't seem the guy of the first one but well.. i liked him, he liked me, everything was pink and white. I showed those pictures to my friends saying "look at this guy i knew on internet" and all my friends were like "what a cute guy!", and i was proud of him.
Last year, i came here (Colombia) but i am venezuelan, i am just living here while i finish my studies. and as i am not living with my parents but with my uncle an aunt, my life has been a nightmare here, i didn't have enough money to pay the internet, so this guy i met on internet, started to send me money by Western Union to pay the internet bill, and then he sent me presents, so i did last year.. i saved all last year (didn't get new clothes) for getting a nice present for him on christmas, apart from sending it it's too expensive. I never saw him on camera but in a few pictures. we were gonna meet in venezuela in june to see each other person to person, but i lately was very persistent and wanted to see him before meeting him, because i was thinking that he could be older. i said to him "i've not seen you for the first time in 3 years! i have to think that you're hiding something" right? that is what i was thinking, and i asked and asked for webcam, till yesterday night he told me "you remember the first time we spoke and you sent me your first picture and so did i? well, it was not me.. and the other pictures weren't also me" i was like "WHAT?! then who you are? why you had to lie to me all this time!" today, he showed himself of camera.. he's a fat man with a face as the pope Ratzinger... i don't care his appearence, but i was for 3 years, thinking about him, dreaming every night of getting to him in holland, i wanted a thousand of things with him, i already had a strong image... but you know? today, while i was crying and among my shock, i asked him "who is he! who's the guy of the pictures!?!?! is your cousin? a friend" he told me "noo, it's someone i don't know"... he sometimes said to me replying when i asked him about what he was wearing, he told me once "i am wearing the same blouse as in the picture you have now displaying on msn" ... whose the pictures in the end? those pictures are yours. the guy i have always, everynight been thinking of.. it's you.. i hope you don't get scared of me. i am not asking you "MARRY ME! BE MINE" no.. i would just like to talk to you once.
i send you a picture of me, so you more or less have an image of who i am. i understood nothing about your profile because it's in dutch. but please, i ask you for talking to me once. i am here everyday (msn and ICQ, my number is -).. or just an e-mail. just comprehend my situation. and if you wanted to see more pictures, i have a few ones in msn space.
Catherine
