Chapter 192

• Online love
• Jim had been dating a woman from a city a little over 2 hours from him. They met in an online chat room that was on the biggest online service back then. For two years they dated on and off, but it was mostly for the sex. Although they were both fond of one another and enjoyed what they did together, neither of them felt the need to move to eithers area and take the relationship to the next level. Terri, his lover, had all of her family there, and Jim had his where he was from and also had a very good job, which he already had 20 years into it.
• In those years, Jim met many of Terri’s friends, most of whom were from the chat room. One he met, and really liked, was Mickie. She lived only 45 minutes from Jim and he loved her wit, and sarcastic quips she would let loose with. Mickie, Like Terri, was 38, divorced and had two kids. One was 20, a girl, and the other a boy, who was 17 and a senior in high school.
