Example of Girl's Internet Chain Mail

She asked him if he loved her.

He said “i love you more than anything in this world.”

She asked him what he would do for her.

He said “i would give you the world in a heartbeat.”

Finally, she asked him if he would die for her.

He said “i would take a bullet for you anyday.”

After this, she broke up with him.

Three weeks later, the boy found out that the girl had died from cancer.

She didnt tell anything to him about her illness.

He was devastated.

But what the boy didnt know was that the girl only asked him those things

just to hear him say them one more time, and that she broke up with
him only because

he wo uld be prepared when her death arrived.

A day after that, the boy was found dead with a note in one hand and

a gun in the other.

The note said:

“you died for me just as you said you would do. So i took a bullet for

you, just as i said that i would.”

Now send this...

0 = you will see the dead girl in your room

tonight.

5 = You crush will realise you like him.

10 = Your crush will realise that he likes you.


15 = Your crush will ask you out.

20+ = Your next relationship will be a long

and happy one.

You have 1 hour!!




life is like a stick of beef jerky. once you finish it, you wish it was

there again.
