Email friends can help you enjoy your day at work, but don't expect too much from them as many email friends prefer to stay online only.
One woman I (1) ……(speak) to recently, Patricia, (2) ……(meet) a new colleague, Howard, at a conference. They (3) ……(get) on really well and on Monday morning when Patricia (4) ……(get) to work there (5) ……(be) an email from Howard in her inbox. She (6) ……(reply) and they (7) ……(start) an email relationship. They (8) ……(find) that they (9) ……(have) a lot in common. They (10) …… (share) memories, and (11) ……(talk) about their workmates. Sometimes they (12) ……(swap) more than twelve emails a day, only stopping if one of them (13) ……(have) a meeting. Patricia (14) ……(look) forward to receiving Howard's emails when she (15) ……(arrive) at work.
After a few weeks, however, Patricia (16) ……(ask) Howard if he (17) ……(want) to meet up after work, but he always (18) ……(find) an excuse not to. Then she (19) ……(receive) a really strange mail from him explaining how he didn't want to have a relationship and how he had decided to stop emailing her. That was the end of the story, and she never (20) ……(hear) from him again.
