Riddle Riddle
Anyone who can answer this riddle correctly is apparently a sociopath. (Answer is under the cut)
A woman attends the funeral of her own mother. While there she meets a wonderful man and thinks it’s love at first sight. Although they talked for hours, she failed to get his information before he left. She has no phone number, email, or anything more than a first name. A week later her...
