There was some kind of penpal situation involving poets. That's all I know!
Does anyone remember that sketch on Lee and Herring (was it?) with Anthony Hopkins writing letters to women, always signing off, I'm wanking as I write this.
Funniest thing ever.

Cybersex is a load of wank. Get into the bloody bedroom once a month after a few pints, missionary position, no foreplay. Blow your load inside her after 2 mins then go to sleep.

Well we all know how romantic you are Nigel.

Makes perfect sense, Lee.
And it's not just a new thing either. Didn't Robert and Elizabeth Barrett Browning fall in love by writing to each other for years in the 1800s?
Someone like that anyway.

And there was a musical written about it called Robert & Elizabeth in the 60s - but I don't think its ever been revived.

Some people find it easier to express their desires over the Internet. And I'm pretty sure, that no one is exactly the same over the net as they are in "real life". I've been told I'm pretty similar, although a bit more confident on here. I have first hand experience of things not being as you might expect, but if you click in such a way mind wise, the sex stuff is not all that important...well kinda!

Nothing. I just couldn't be bothered to go back and edit my post to quote you.
1160s 'cos that's shortly before your parents died. etc etc. Innit.

I think you still have to fancy that person within a relationship so it has to stand up

I would never put any faith into maintaining a relationship with someone unless I'd met them.
I'm probably very different online than I am in real life. I'm nowhere near as fun in real life as I am online!
