Sick of spammy inbox- Lonely guy

[Victor]

Howdy.
I'm sick of getting nothing but spam in my inbox, so help me out and send me an email, wouldja?

I'm a 23 year old human () male living in Western Australia.
I suffer from social phobia and have no real world friends so I'm pretty alone besides from 1 or 2 online friends.

Bye.

Hello; I understand the feeling. Spam is so annoying cause you see "1 new message," and you think "ooh, could be something interesting!" But then it isn't; it's just some fishy-looking crap.

I thought about emailing, but a. I'm shy, even in this arena; and b. I'm half a decade younger than you, still rather childish, and living on another continent, so I probably wouldn't have too much in common. Maybe you should post some of your interests like some of the people in this section have done, as this is a really good way, I think, to get shy people to email. It seems an easier thing to do, once you have an idea of what to talk about. It also ensures that you get an email pal whose tastes are similar to yours, which can at least be helpful in keeping the correspondence interesting. If you really don't care about specific interests, saying that could also help, yeah? Gives people an idea of what to expect, or of what you expect.

But what do I know? Not much, I promise you! ;D I dunno to what extent this email buddies area works, or what the unwritten rules are... I'm sure this post is full of enough rambling now that I should have just tapped out an email anyway, lol. Just wanted to help make certain you had something to read besides your spam. I hope you find the friendly emailers you're looking for!

Thanks GreenFerret.
Hmm. Unusual colour for a ferret.

Ya.
I've been getting lots of spam for anti-depressants lately.
These spams have a "remove" link at the bottom, but surprise surprise, it just brings up a 404 error.
Those ads aren't annoying at all!

I slowly got used to posting in places like this.
I'd say it's thanks to usenet, although I still get shy on these newsgroups and often end up cancelling my post before I even send it.

What a coincidence. I'm childish too! I was watching Ghostbusters on dvd yesterday. Loved it since I was a kid. Maybe I'm TOO childish.
Maybe we don't have anything else in common.

Interests huh?
Well I like to... um. Well, I'd like to... urm...
Interests.... I guess I'm really addicted to the internet.
I used to like drawing silly little cartoons.
