Of course, sociophobia didn't go anywhere, but it became easier to live with it.

I have fallen for her letters before even knowing her real name, or before seeing her face, a picture, through her letters I had seen what matters: her soul.

I've never had an easy time making friends, feeling much more comfortable talking through the computer screen or cell phone.

I didn't know I was about to meet someone new to talk on a deeper level about everything.

I uninstalled and reinstalled the app about four time until I made my mind to stick to it and really try it out.

He’s halfway across the world and I feel closer to him than most people.

Why would I want to do that, when I have instant messaging? When there are much faster, quicker ways to contact people than wait hours?

My life is no longer a monotone & is actually a true Opera house...

I am proud to say that my Mandarin has definitely improved, and I have been able to talk with teenagers from Senegal to Switzerland and Hong Kong.

And since that, we never contacted each other because he doesn't want to give me a false hope.

Now I also have a big new dream to buy a ticket to South Korea and fly to Seoul to meet my awesome soulmate!

She took a plane and drove 200km by car to see... me? Just... me?
