Lovelorn elderly woman

A trial is going on right now in Tokyo involving a 70 year old Japanese woman. What did she do? She bombarded a 79 year old man with over 200 love letters, repeatedly cleaned his family tombstone and broke a stalking ban.

The woman had forced her way into the mans home seven times between July and October last year despite a court order to stay away. This woman didn’t take no for an answer it seems. The woman sent 206 love letters and cleaned the mans family grave site 85 times!

When she was ordered to stay away from the man by the court she demanded 1.25 million yen ($10,300) from him for the amount she’d paid in order to get a drivers license to travel back and forth to his home and for gas costs.

Later she sent threatening letters to the man saying “if it comes down to it, you could die”.

Prosecutors are seeking a 10 month jail sentence since they think that there’s a high chance that the defendant could commit another offense. No kidding!

Online Dating

Are you love lorn? Don’t have time to get out to clubs and meet people? Well, I found a site for my readers from the UK who are looking for love!

I do know several people who have found love on the Internet. Some of them even ended up marrying. I think it’s a good way for some people to meet. You get a chance to talk to someone online, and then perhaps the phone as you get to know them and while you are doing that a friendship and perhaps even a relationship is developing. In this day and age when people are so busy working, trying to pay all their bills, caring for family - it can be hard to make time to find people to date. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with using an online dating service. It works well for some!

The service I found is called Loopy Love. The front page states that it’s the Uk’s first free online singles dating service. their members seem to have been successful in finding a match because the site says that there are two or three marriages every week! You might not be looking for marriage, but it’s nice to know that they are helping people match up.

The Loopy love site is easy to use. Just register, fill in some information about yourself, tell them who your ideal date is, and how far you are willing to travel to meet your match. It’s as easy as that. Give it a try if you want some help finding your perfect mate.
