After reports of fear and oh noes, the webnets is showing the sweet tale of 4Chan helping a WWII vet celebrate his 90th birthday.
The poster says "Wanted, People For Birthday Party" with a picture a slightly sad looking William J Lashua. This led to the 4chan /b/ to organise sending him birthday cards and even gifts.
Though on Reddit the Grandson of William J Lashua posted how happy the family was for the love and generosity, but said the attention had been a misunderstanding since the poster was designed for people who knew William.
" It was in no way to indicate that he is alone. He has 7 children, many grandchildren, and even great grandchildren. In his younger years he was a foster parent to dozens of foster children. He is well liked in the community, and will be fully supported on his 90th birthday. I ask that if you don't know him, to not attend the party, as it is for his friends and family. The venue for the party is a very small hall, and will be full to capacity with people he knows and loves.
By all means, send cards and well wishes, but please refrain from sending gifts/strippers/cakes/candies/etc. "-Reddit http://www.reddit.com/r/reddit.com/comments/d8uyh/i_am_william_j_lashuas_grandson_please_read_this/After reports of fear and oh noes, the webnets is showing the sweet tale of 4Chan... more

Normally I am attracted to guys who don't treat me well.
I had been dating this guy for few weeks and he was a real jerk I didn't want to be committed because my career wouldn't allow me to spend as much time as I want with him and I really wasn't ready to jump into a serious relationship. The guy went psycho and I decided I didn't want to date or meeting any other guys on this Internet anymore because it seemed like all I got was the weirdos.
It was about a week or so before my trip to New York to visit my relatives again and all these guys were IMing me and I just kept telling them I wasn't really in the mood for talking, then later that night around 12am my time I got an IM from this guy Brian asking "are you really the sweetest girl in the world?" because that's what my name had said, so I said yes I am and we began talking.
At this time I really didn't want to talk to him but I did for a few minutes. After about 30 minutes of internet talking I felt I needed to call him, so I asked him if I could. The rest is history...

I am just now recovering from being dumped by a man I was in love with for almost 2 years.
We met online in a chat room where politics and current events were the main topics.
But after a few months, it got much more involved. Emails....phone calls... web-camming, mailing cards to each other, you name it, we did it.
was head over heels in love with this guy, and he said he felt the same way. Even though we both worked full time jobs, we spent so much time together online, talking and laughing for HOURS each night.
Our phone calls lasted 4-5 hours, about 2-3 times a week. I told him I thought he was the one for me, and he said he felt the same way. The emails we sent each other were incredible. We both talked about our dreams. We looked at house plans online...looked for jobs together....talked about having kids.
After almost 2 years....yes, YEARS.....of sharing our hearts online, we finally met in person, and had the most incredible weekend together.
It was everything I hoped it would be: intimate, fun, downright sexy. We were HOT together. He had made a couple of CD's with songs he said reminded him of me, and we played them on his portable CD player all weekend, whenever we were in our hotel room. We spent hours talking, walking on the beach, visiting all the places he had been telling me about and sending me pictures of for 1 1/2 years.
He even took me to his Mom's antique shop. It was just amazing. Finally being able to look into his beautiful blue eyes and tell him in PERSON that I loved him was a dream come true. Hearing him whisper that he loved me as we were holding each other sent chills down my spine.
He kept telling me how much he loved me, and wished we could be together. Hearing that, and knowing how deeply I loved him and that he said he felt the same way about me...I began the process of making arrangements for us to be together permanently. Then, disaster struck.
He said that I 'obviously thought there was more to him and I than he did, and that he hadn't felt the same way.' He said 'I wasn't in love with you.' and he said 'Where was I when we supposedly talked about a future together?' His parting shot was...'I'm sorry you feel I have hurt you. But I didn't use you. You got as much out of it as I did.'

Dawn's Story:
I met a guy over the internet sometime ago.
I never asked or wanted to feel this way towards a person I've never seen face to face.
We started to desire to talk to one another constantly (at least I know I did). Our feelings grew extremely strong and it became obvious that we loved each other in many ways. I couldn't help this longing in my heart. In fact time after time I tried to dismiss the feelings but it only failed. Now we talk as much as possible. He tells me that someday in fact we will have each other to hold and delight in one another's arms. I wish for that night after night.
I have so many choices in many different guys, but none could ever drive me so crazy with passion like he does. I want him more than anything and no matter how much I try to express it nobody understands that my heart truly beats for this guy. They can't see the real need I possess for him. There are many times that I feel he's the only person I feel comfortable with telling even my deepest of secrets to. I can't even tell my best friend Jodie the things I tell him. People wonder how I can trust him so much and believe everything he tells me like I do. There is just this deep trust I hold here with my heart. I can't explain it but it's there. So what if he's an atheist and so what if he drinks. I'm opposed to those things, but with him nothing can matter.
Not even my faith in God has pulled me back from this need. What does it mean to need someone? When you can't or don't have them - doesn't that mean you'll have something awful or even death happen to you? I am sitting here so depressed and in pure misery because he's not here with me. I indeed need him. I need him so I can find happiness and peace, so I can have those things with him. Wouldn't it be awful if I were to spend my whole life in pain because I never took that extra step to make sure I'd be with him? I could even find death by my own hand in that. The pain to end all.
Each night when I lay my head down a terrible fear runs through my mind. What if he were to find somebody that he seems to love much more. Even worse, what if he just doesn't love me anymore. How would I be able to rise to the dawn each day knowing that the love of my life just doesn't need me anymore? I know all people think I'm foolish and this is a phase that fades away with the years, but I strongly know in my heart there is nothing nor another soul that could draw me from this desperate desire I have for Gregory...
