OK, this is seriously weird. Robert is a love-lad that I gave a serious slapping in chat a while back. We have continued to send emails back and forth. He claims to be an engineer working on oil pipelines. Says he’s on a ship off the western coast of the UK. So this morning, when I turned on my lad-chat program, here comes Robert. Only – it wasn’t Robert. And he wasn’t on a ship, he was in an internet café in Nigeria. Now, I suspected Robert of being in Nigeria, but this was simply surreal.

Any bets on what happened here? Kelvin says he went into an internet café and found the chat program open. Do you suppose Robert was waiting for me, went off to the loo or something, and this guy sat down at the same computer?

Not knowing what was going on, I played it straight as the same character I had played with Robert.

Here’s the chat:

Quote:

lad: hi
Me : Hello

Me : I'm fine, and you?

And he logged off. Someone logged back in a few minutes later, but did not try to contact me – at least not yet. I’m gonna be real cautious the next time Robertt says “Hi” to me.

I think the lad forgot who he was supposed to be. ooops. Laughing

I once had a dying widow die, and I started working with the barrister. A month later, the dying widow forgot to be dead and started writing to me again. Much chaos ensued and security pictures were required from all parties involved. (except me, since I know who I am.)

I would try to capitalize on this. Very Happy

OK, so I emailed Robert and asked him, "Who is Kelvin Smith?" That was the name that showed up on the email Kelvin sent me.

Quote:

Robert,

A very strange thing happened while I was eating lunch today. I turned on my messenger in case you signed on and wanted to chat. Someone signed on with your ID and contacted me.

He said his name was Kelvin, and I thought it was your son at first, but then he said he was in Nigeria, 31 years old, lost his wife, and has a 7 year old son named Emma.

Does your son have your login information? Would he play that kind of game with me? If he did, I must tell you I don't appreciate it. If it wasn't your son, who was it? He said he was in an internet cafe and saw me log in on a chat that was already open, and he just thought he'd chat with me.

Robert, how could some random man in a Nigerian internet cafe have access to your chat id? Please, can you explain this?

Emily

We'll see what happens next. He may blame his son, who is supposedly at school in Nigeria.

I would have thought that Robert would have slunk away with his tail between his legs after the snafu with the chat. But, this morning, here he was in my inbox again.

Quote:

hello my love,how are you doing today?hope you are doing fine,honey that is so strenge to hear ,my son dont have my login imformation,and i open that hotmail because of you dear,

i want you to send me the email the person use in chatting with you,i am so comfuse,i will like to see it dear,i dont know anybody that have password,and i am not in nigeria,i will love you to send me that email address the person use in contacting you,ok?

honey i will try and come on line so we can talk,i came hear to wait for you and you did not show up,dear i miss you somuch ,try and come online ok?

have a lovely day and take good care of yourself,

big huggggggggggggg and kissssssssssssssssssss

from

Robert

So I replied. I wonder what explanation he is going to come up with. I’m not going to help him figure this out. And I’m not going to tell him I got an email from this Kelvin person. I am also not going to reply to Kelvin, as it might be Robert. Let’s see if he says anything about getting an email from Kelvin. What did Shakespeare say? “Oh what a tangled web we weave …”

Quote:

Robert,

I'm sorry, but the chat ID he used was yours. My Messenger said "Robert," and you are the only Robert in my contacts list. He told me his email address, but I didn't save the chat, so I don't have it anymore. It's all very puzzling.

What is happening with the fire? Have you found out how it started? Was anyone else hurt? I hadn't realized how dangerous your job could be. I do hope you take extra care now.

I have begun teaching a class at the university three evenings a week. It is challenging to teach all the intelligent young people in the class, but we have some very lively discussions, and we all learn - even the teacher!

Please take care and be safe!

Emily

He has been online several times today, but has not contacted me in chat. I’m going to let him stew in his own juices for a while. He can see that I’m online, so I’m sure he knows that I’m aware that he’s online, too. (No, it’s not a grammar-school snit – it’s called baiting. Very Happy

I got a notice yesterday that I had a message on Dating72. I logged in, and this is what I found in my inbox there:

Subject: hi dearest
Message: How are you doing here today?

my name is robert,I must say your profile has really caught my eyes after viewing,i much interested in knowing you, better........

for me, I am single
dad, and Love and family is very important to me. I like
traveling and some sport activities like hand ball,golf and others.
In my opinion i would say that I am kind and gentle.

Looks, background and age are not as important as
finding someone who is kind and tender, someone who is
full of life and loves to smile and laugh.

i am looking for someone who can be an equal partner in a
life together, and shear moods together.that's but a few
i want in the woman of my dream,a one man woman
Here is my yahoo id ([email protected])
you can add me yo your messanger for both of us to have a chat but please am not here for game player ,so we can know more about each other.

hope to here from u soonest.have a lovely time

warmly regard

Robert

The idiot doesn’t even remember that he is already in love with me! Shocked

I’m not going to mention this to him, though. I want to see how long it takes him to realize what he’s done. Twisted Evil

Posted: Thu Sep 11, 2008 9:33 pm

That is too funny!!! I wonder what his excuse will be?

Posted: Fri Sep 12, 2008 10:34 pm

I am a wicked, wicked woman. Twisted Evil

I am so cruel to the poor lad who is besotted with me. This is really in the nature of an experiment here. Robert is really rather clueless. He has contacted me as someone else (with his “Robert” chat ID), and he has sent two introductory messages to me on the dating site where I found him. So I figured it was safe to mess with him a little bit.

Me: Because I want to learn if you are the right one.
Me: I'm not hiding anything from you.
Me: I'm just being cautious.
Lad: what about me that you still want to know
Lad: me too
Me: There are some wicked people online

I like your experiment Titania. Very Happy

Do you plan to drag it out as long as possible without falling for the lad?

Posted: Fri Sep 12, 2008 11:10 pm

That's my plan. Twisted Evil

I've fallen for one lad immediately and taken a couple of weeks to fall for another. Now I'm playing "hard to get." Mr. Green
