Forbidden love

It’s hard to believe that everything happens for a reason, everything that moves in this world has a meaning. Our minds are capable of traveling to the valley of the unknown and beyond what has been established by our traditional society, which in turns judges and condemns without giving us the time or the rights to defend ourselves, especially if we fall in love with the wrong person or with one we are not suppose to. One day we start a friendship without imagining how much it would mean to us.

Hoy en día con la excusa de la soledad o del aburrimiento, muchos hombres y mujeres se aventuran a entrar a cualquier sala de Chat, donde se comunican escribiendo através de la computadora. También hay los que van a las agencias casamenteras como match.com, eHarmony.com, etc. y algunos hasta usan el “Speedy dating”, servicio en el cual hombres y mujeres se reúnen con un moderador para tener citas de 3 a 8 minutos cada una y así poder conocer a varias personas en una sola noche. De acuerdo al libro de referencias Wikipedia, chatear si...
