Initially, Kelly said she was too “embarrassed” to remove Benja as a new Facebook friend after she accidentally added him to the social networking site.
“I’m a clown with my phone, I do things while browsing that I do not realize,” she told SWNS. “He sent me a message saying ‘Sorry Yeah, I do not think I know you’ and I said ‘No, you’m not sorry, it must have been a mistake. ‘
“It’s just so weird – we live in this small town where everyone knows everyone – but we’re the only two who do not know each other,” Kelly said.
