| How do you know when someone's hitting on you? |
| 12.22.05 (1:30 pm) [edit] |
I've spent a good portion of this day in close proximity to someone who gave me their contact info in case I want a cup of coffee. Then I read about a high school teacher getting in trouble for having sex with a student. I know that's extreme, but going home, I feel young again, or at least like a college sophomore, and the guy was probably early thirties. It was pleasant talking with him, and making maybe another friend in the world, but the whole contact info thing seemed pretty bold to me (but it is nice to be pseudo-asked out!.) I try to be friendly to strangers, but I don't want to give away too much info! Which ties into what I was dealing with yesterday- how people find us. I have a Myspace account (just signed on to see friends, there is minimal info on me and two photos- not worth the time to check out), and yet I got invited to join by some random guy through my college account e-mail! Unless he's not random, and I really should remember him from somewhere. . . The only thing I can think of is that he got my address through a church info mass e-mail, and maybe there was some benefit to him if he got so many people to sign up? I don't know. It almost freaked me out as much as getting e-mails from random people to my Myspace account, except that I do have one friend who linked me as a friend. Where is privacy? I thought that with technology and social life, as a society, we've become more and more private, and removed from human contact, but I guess that contact just emerges in different ways!I am 'home for the holidays,' or at least visiting my family in WI, so if you're around, let's hang out! |

What's your MySpace address? I can't find you!

I know you invited me, but unless you have an alter-ego as a militant, this was someone else.
And I'm glad I'm hard to find, but if you search for erine@mail.com, it should work.

P.S.
I only have one 'friend,' because I'm purposefully trying not to get out there, at least until there's something worth reading on there.
