Boy #1: Alejandro

Before I start talking about the recent happenings, I'll first introduce all of my boys & girls to you.

Let's start with Boy #1: Alejandro.

He's not my top priority, he's just probably the one I know for the longest time.

Alejandro is

• Latin
• 176 cm
• some years older than I am

Those are the facts. Let's start our story:

Back in 2005 or 2006 I was part of a now dead online community for international communication. It was

mainly a place to share photos of yourself and spam others guestbooks though.

One day I browsed some profiles and noticed a pretty stylish guy listening to the same music as I do and probably sharing some other hobbies as well. I can't remember exactly but I did something that was close to "poking" someone on facebook.

He replied. And then we started to spam each others guest book, just like everyone else did.

His English skills were poor, but we somehow managed to communicate.

A few weeks later we exchanged MSN addresses and started to chat regularly. I was attracted to him and he felt the same. Turning on our webcam didn't kill those feelings, instead, they rose.

I was 16 and I had a crush on a guy I met online. Good job.

We somehow managed to keep in touch for about 9 years now. This is amazing, isn't it?

Also, a kind amount of those feelings we developed for each other never died.

Though, I won't accept a long distance relationship.

Why?

1. I'm young
2. I want to explore the world
3. He's poor and not able to come see me
4. I won't come to see him
5. He can't even afford meeting up in the middle. FU.

This is why.

Have you ever had an online crush?
