Wi-Fi Snafu

They met on line, late one night... Just looking around on a dating site... Neither of them knew what to expect... And within a month they started to text... The Wi-Fi signal was not one of the best... So their communication was put to the test. He asked if she liked to cook... She thought he said she was a schnook... Really she asked, how rude is that ? He thought she said she was an aristocrat... She thought he was rude... He thought she was a prude... But each had a deep curiousity... So they decided to exchange photos for both to see... They both liked what they saw.. As each looked like a movie star... But they each questioned...could this be true ? Or is this possibly a snafu ? They decided to meet and make it soon... Perhaps on Friday in the afternoon ... At a Coffee shop on Baker’s Street... See you there and be sure to order something sweet... She got there early, and was sitting at the corner table... When a short pudgy man, wearing “bling” and an exposed pierced navel... Approached and asked, “waiting for someone ?”... No said she, NOT me and ran to her car... Driving away as fast as she was able... It was then a man arrived, and sat down at the corner table... He looked a lot like Clark Gable...

Clever story about trusting the world wide web of relationships. Enjoyed it...glad I'm already married. I wrote a similar, but different, meeting and marriage internet love story, too that I'll put on the soup sometime soon.
