Hiding behind a digital mask

Before I begin speaking of today's events I need to tell you about certain aspects of my life.

I LOVE MOVIES. ok, I am obsessed with films. I watch one almost every single day. I have netflixx 3 at a time so I get them at a pretty fast demand. Last semester I watch almost 2 movies a day (when possible). My life is surrounding myself with great art. I feel like watching a great film is a culturing experience. That you learn something and become a better person. I do not watch movies like Beerfest or anything that Lindsey Lohan would be in. I watch Hitchock, and Tarantino, The Godfather, Seven, Requiem for a dream. I watch movies that teach you about life. So digressing from my obsession...

Today I was online and someone I did not know im'd me: "hey." I responded with the same. She informed me that through a friend she saw a picture of me on facebook and she thought I was cute. She told me I seemed cool and wanted to talk to me, that she liked my movies.

Now I was taken back because, well this stuff use 2 happen in 7th grade, this stuff happened back then when your friends were screwing around with you. They'd pretend to be a cool girl that liked you. But we are 21 now!

Do i believe it? No! The cynic in me is still weary (since when are girls the aggressor). But I entertain the thought and continue speaking. She tells me that her favorite movie is Eternal Sunshine (my favorite movie) and that she loves Charlie Kaufman (my favorite writer). Now things are starting to get hairy cause either I have found my soul mate or some1 I know is not playing cautious, spilling out all they know about me in the first 5 minutes. I ask her if she has seen Adaptation and she says no (which confuses me cause how could u know Kaufman and not see his 2nd best work, liar or not the response should be yea). So she asks for a description and I give a brief one. She tells me is going to have to netflixx it (red flag #2).

There are other absurd details but I will rest here. I mean is this someone I know hiding behind a digital mask or is she sincere. I don't know anymore: "If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is: Infinite" (Blake).
