My Online Girlfriend... A Precious Lesson Learnt

Posted by Mr.Keropok

A bruised ego and hammered pride was how I felt after this whole few months duration saga with my online "girlfriend". Totally felt lousy about myself, espacially when my mum occasionally pokes fun at me for this silly blunder I made. To me, it was like a dream dashed and hope all lost... just when I thought I could be like Prince Charming riding on a white horse coming in to save my beautiful maiden in distress, I was wrong. My "maiden" turned out to be a man instead! Yicks!!!

Painful but important lesson learnt. Thankfully I didn't get robbed, cheated or assaulted. Since then, I stayed clear of all internet chatrooms, not wanting to commit the same mistakes again... It will forever be a last impression imprinted in me.

15 years down the road and here I am... Being a Cyber Wellness Ambassador, going to schools to teach youths the dangers of cyber space and how to handle them. That's where my online girlfriend story comes in handy!

Thank you everyone for sharing the fun and laughters with me as I shared this experience through my blog. Hope you guys learnt something precious too!
