So a week or two prior to our first Skype session, we had been making videos for each other back and forth. He was open to it but I still a little nervous… I’m pretty shy. But one night we had been making video back and forth and his computer was acting up and his whole 8 min video was muted. He offered to Skype and I accepted. I sat their nervously playing with my hair, trying to make sure I had good lighting, and nervously fidgeting as I waited for him to call me. He called, and I was so in awe of seeing him in real time, it was so surreal. We had only texted and made videos up until this point. Looking back I think it was my fault by I couldn’t hear him, though he could hear me. So he typed and I talked. It worked well, and it kinda took the edge off that we had to have a consent stream of conversation. Luckily for us, it was in the summer we talked from midnight until 7 in the morning for me (9pm to 4am for him) -our session lasted 7 hours! It wasn’t awkward at all for us, it was just amazing to actually talk to him face to face so to speak. I loved every second of it. It made me fall deeper for him than how I already was. Sadly I don’t have any pictures to share, I don’t know why I didn’t take one. So that’s my first skype date… Hope you enjoyed my story!
