I managed to get a Gmail invite when the service was in beta, so I was able to get my real name @gmail.com. I didn't think I had that common of a name, but a facebook search leads to pages and pages of results so obviously there are quite a few of us. Every once in a while, I would say about once every two weeks, I will receive an e-mail that is clearly for another DrewP. The majority pertain to something in New York like an e-mail from a comedy club about upcoming shows or from the opera asking for a donation. Occasionally, I will receive something more personal. Along the lines of , "Drew, this is mother. Your phone is off the hook. Please call me" or " Drew if you could get that report to me by the end of the week I would really appreciate it" I never e-mail and correct people because.... well because Im a lazy b*stard. I have never received anything that interesting. Until today. From A******* (girls name and her e-mail is ********gurl@yahoo.com) " Hey I am wondering if u r super busy on Thursdays. I had my nursing shift cancelled. Maybe I could come and c u. Text me when u get in and let me know what u think. Hubby is home so I probably wont b able to chat too much. -A*********" So what information can we take from this? 1. This girl is half-r****ded because she still talks like she's on AOL and its 1997. 2. She is a nurse 3. My name twin IS HOOKING UP WITH THIS CHEATING w**** So I submit this to you, Clutchfans. The fate of this girl is in your hands. We can play internet detective and find out more info. We can pretend to be him and get some funny interaction for a short while. We can morally condemn her over e-mail. We can leave it alone and let the winds of destiny sort it out. Or we can send her a hidden e-mail link taking her to meatspin. My fist inclination is to leave it alone, but then I think about this girl's poor husband and I put myself in his shoes So whats the next move Clutchfans?
tell her you want to take her somewhere nice and ask her where she wants to go. and then tell her you will meet her there and tell her to where something nice.
Its a risky move immediately asking for pics. At the same time, this might be time sensitive before she figures out its not him.... but how often do they really see eachother? How would I phrase the e-mail? Re-reading the e-mail, I noticed she said ThursdayS, indicating she wants it to be a weekly thing. Zero doubt at all she is a cheating w****. And no, we are not telling her to meet somewhere and not show up. That would accomplish nothing in our fact finding and it wouldn't really even be funny. 95% sure they are in New York based on the other e-mails I have been getting.
I have the same gmail problem you do (on original gmail account) first initial + incredibly common last name @gmail.com I get a LOT of sign up emails and a lot of personal emails for other people, but nothing like this... Play along Get pics Report back!
Three questions... 1) if she wants "you" to text her, why didn't she just text "you" 2) if she's so close to "drewp" how is it she doesn't know his correct email? 3) In reference to the above, what makes you think it is legitimate? I'm not saying it isn't, just that I'm pretty skeptical when it comes to random emails.
you should ask for new pics because you miss her so much because there is next to little chance that you and her are in the same city, but if somehow close you are then set up a meeting at a hotel and bring a video camera. then you go down as epic in the annals of the intertubez then maybe send the video in for cash to that cheaters show edit: i had gotten a gmail account really early as well and mine is my first and last name @ gmail and while my name isnt that common here it is in India so I get a lot of random emails as well from people from india. I have gotten letters from moms asking how their sons were doing, wedding invites, picasa album invites etc....its really not that uncommon i havent gotten anything as great as your did though DrewP. i actually had 2 different people with the same as myself email me asking me if I would sell them the email address since its simple to remember (no numbers etc) and i think one of them has first and last with yahoo so having both yahoo and gmail would cover his bases.
1. Maybe he has a wife too? 2. Everyone else gets it wrong so obviously its something very close. 3. No reason to think its not legitimate.
Definitely get her pic. Then you should ask her to do something for you that she'll have to go out of her way for. Like Anne Hathaway. Then you should say that you'll tell her husband she is cheating if she doesn't want to do it.
Tell her "some girl's name" and you generally hook up on Thursdays and she is welcome to join in. "some girl's name" would like to see a recent picture prior to the menage a trois.
You have to somehow play along and be casual on the first email and if she responds like she thinks it's real, then you tell her how much you think about her, but it would be easier if you had some pictures.
Yeah, usually this is just a tired overused bbs cliché, but in this case…I think it’s actually doable! You’re right, phrasing the question in a way that doesn’t give you away is going to be tough. She sounds just stupid enough to do it, but you should still proceed with caution. Get a rapport going with her by asking some nondescript questions, then once she lets her guard down (if it was ever up in the first place), move in for the kill. Then post the pics here.
ok so we need to agree on an exact script. Lets edit together.... Should we go two e-mail strategy or yaoluv's one e-mail homerun? He does make a good point that shes stupid. "A********, sorry I can't make it this Thursday but I will figure something out for next week. Do you have any pics around? I wish I could see you right now... miss you. " by the way guys the e-mail came at 11AM this morning! Best case scenario considering I have been writing papers non stop this week and havent checked my mail
