    anytime you send an email the IP is in the header of the email so it identifies the mailbox its being sent from (in this case you ) also if you use internet chat . ex; Yahoo Skype etc . If you added him on Facebook or Twitter as a friend again it is possible depending on how savvy the person is computer wise . There are packet sniffing tools that can pull down an IP address but those are more tuned for experts
