Fred and I started off with a simple correspondence. And it grew into something more that can't be described in simple words already. Sometimes I could not notice how several hours passed in a chat with him. His smile, his attitude to life, his sense of humor coincided with what is in my mind, and it captivated even more.

I didn't think I would enjoy online texting and chatting, but I was wrong. Video chats helped us feel closer to each other. We had dinners together every Saturday online. It was very charming, starting with cooking dinner together - each in their own kitchen in video chat, ending with enjoying this meal together. And at some point I realized that this could be in my real life, not only online.
