Hi,I am from asia.
Our English teacher asked us to find some penpals from the internet to improve our English skill,so I started to send the invitation to some people I found from a penpal website.At first It is just for the homework,now I take it as an interesting thing. But I found that most people on the website are seeking penpals for love. So almost there are no males give me response. All I got are femal.but Every time I talked to her I already have a gf and not plan to have a new gf, they stoped writing me back. thereforeee, I modified the content of my invitation and comment I had have a gf and try to find a pure friendship.I think that will save their time and is easier to find the one I want.
then, I got a girl's response from Hawaii. So I started to develop a new friendship ,introduce myself and ask some question about her. She said she just broke up with a man who was married before dating her since she was 14.I felt sorry for her and tried to cheer her up. horribly, I got the second letter from her. She started to talking about the sex they ever had in detail and they are still meeting each other now and then and keep it secret from his wife. This is shocking for me and make me unable to think up how should I reply for this.
following is my qustion:
1. are most people who try to make friends on the internet seeking love? Is it impossible to make friends on the internet? or I am totally wrong in the concept of cyber relationship?
2. am I too conservative for this? is it normal to talk about sex life in such detailed way?(the postures,skills etc..)
3. how should I reply to her? ignore the sexual part or share my sexual experience as well?
She is the only one who is willing to be my penpal after knowing I have gf,maybe I should bear with the way she share herself's life.
