We met online and have been communicating off and on for about years. We&#8217;ve played chess, spades, and other games while talking to each other. So about 2 in the morning, about 2 months ago, he asked if i wanted to come over and I decided that finally yes I would. He lives in Raleigh and i get there about 3 in the morning and he looks exactly like he does on camera. So I get there and we talk for a while, he offers me a drink, and we continue talking. We talked about family and life. He has two dogs and he&#8217;s from Illinois. He said he&#8217;s taking a break from dating (as am I) and the reason he&#8217;s typically silent online for so long is because he typically has a girlfriend. I figured that as much. then i started to question &#8220;how come he hasn&#8217;t asked me out?&#8217;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;We even start to play poker, which i don&#8217;t know how to play exactly. He tried to teach me and he did a good job. We played a little bit of strip poker and i was the main winner. We stayed up and talked until about 8am. My adrenaline was high, that&#8217;s why i stayed up as late as I did. We finally cuddled up on the couch with each other and fell asleep together. After sleeping for like 2 hours, i have to use the little girls room. I went to use the bathroom and when i came back he had taken up the &nbsp;whole couch. That left me with his other couch. I wasn&#8217;t all that tired, again adrenaline still pumping. I kept playing with him until he woke up to walk his dogs and then we went back to sleep together. We slept off and on until about 3 in the afternoon, when i finally got up and went home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;There is definitely more to come about this<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;So after nearly 5 years i finally met my &#8220;chess friend&#8221;.
