Yesterday, my friend told me about his life.
His social life started online.
He had a long distance relationship.
Everyday, he would be greeted with love texts, digital kisses, and he would have online video chats.
He thought he had found true love.
Everyday, he would wake up happy, eager to get up.
No longer did he wake up depressed from loneiness!
He knew she would bring him happiness forever.
No more would he have to be an outcast.
One day, he didn't get anything.
Nothing.
He didn't get a greeting.
He didn't get funny videos from her.
He didn't get love notes.
He decided to talk to her first.
No responses came.
He felt the flame within him that he thought would go on forever flicker.
He checked her online profiles.
Facebook. Flicker.
YouTube. Flicker.
Veoh. Flicker.
Metacafe. Flicker.
Myspace. Flicker.
Flickr. Flicker.
Her pages disappeared.
No proof she ever existed.
So, his days continued alone.
Forever.
Not even his friends could help him.
A flame cannot be ignited by any other than the person who lit it.
This was just my friend, of course.
He just told me all this yesterday.
I wish someone could help him.
Because, even though I don't know much, it must hurt alot.
Even though this is just my friend.
Just me friend...
My friend...
