More Love Online

A few weeks ago Yaxlich told readers of his blog about a man called Mr Dobbie who wrote an email to a girl called Kate Winsall which ended up being sent all around the world and Mr Dobbie becoming a laughing stock just because he was romantic. Today Yaxlich has read about a girl called Vicky Elborough-Cook who met a man called Gavin in Barcelona, which is in Spain. They were both staying in the same hotel, Gavin bought her drinks and they flirted with each other but Vicky didn't give Gavin her telephone number because she was "playing hard to get". When she got home, despite already having a boyfriend, she decided that she wanted to track Gavin down. The only thing Vicky knew about Gavin was that he worked for the BBC so she sent an email to some friends to try to find him. This email ended up all going around the world and was seen by millions of people. It was unnecessary because Gavin had already got Vicky's telephone number and was interested in seeing her until he found out about the email. Gavin decided that he didn't want to meet Vicky because she was a stalker and was concerned over the welfare of his bunny rabbits whilst Vicky decided that she would try to rebuild her relationship with her boyfriend. What has Yaxlich learned from all of this? Playing hard to get involves emailing the entire world and telling them that you fancy someone. The BBC employ university graduates to write their interactive captions. The BBC do not employ people who can spell to write their interactive captions. If you are rejected by someone you have been stalking and millions of people have read your email, pretend you weren't interested anyway and call the other person a loser. This does not make you appear bitter in any way. Love letters are dead and have been replaced with out of office replies. Yaxlich is on the wrong email distribution list as he never receives these emails.
