Good thoughts needed...

for my trip this weekend to Denver to meet the guy! Rich and I have had an online relationship from friendship to more for the past 2 years (almost)... I'm flying to Denver for a conference for work and will be meeting him...

Here's to hoping that he's everything I think he is and more...

Thanks,

Barbara_Tampa

Sending positive thoughts. All injuries are caused by someones momentary poor judgement. That is why they are called accidents and that is one of the ways we all learn. Maybe someone will learn from reading or hearing of Danny's misfortune. Certainly his friends will. I hope he recovers fully quickly.

It's hard to imagine how this could have happened and the aftermath looked horrific. Such a sweet-looking town.

I was so hoping you'd come back and say they found out it was something like pressure they could relieve and you'd be ok. I'm still praying for a really great result!

This is the latest update: From Marilyn: James asked me to send you the latest update on Andy. All the prayers seem to have worked! He woke up this morning and was talking to his son. They took the tubes out this morning and he was starting to crack jokes like the Andy we all know! He doesn't remember much about the accident though and still has a ways to go. I will give you more updates today as we get them! Please continue with your prayers because they are working! As she says, thanks a million, & please keep Andy in your thoughts & prayers.

May he be your knight in shining armor!

Alternate version: May your night be fine amour!

Well, I went a long distance to meet a man I met on these forums, and it was one of the most wonderful experiences of my life. We aren't 'together' anymore, because life got in the way, but he is still dear to my heart. May the same blessing come to you!

Best of luck!

I've never met any of my online romances but have enjoyed considerable emotional satisfaction. Sometimes I wonder if meeting them in the real world would have the same spark that lights the candle.

Bunnyman, YES - meeting someone whom you have a soul connection online with DOES have considerable emotional satisfaction and "spark" (it did for me). The key is to not 'expect' anything and, while being cautious, don't make any plans except to have fun. Of course, being nervous and scared is normal, but if both people discuss this before hand, there are few surprises. If you have developed that connection of the soul before you meet, there should be no important concerns.
