What About Online Friendships?

Do they work??Can they work??Do people prefer 2 communicate by computer rather than talk face 2 face?Are people more confident behind there computers?What if after many months/years u develop feelings 4 ur online friend but its not a 2 way thing!!What if resentment creeps up...Then ill feeling...What do u do when u fall in love with ur online friend?Im sure this has happened in the past..It must b messy & painful & very ugly at times.Have any orgers ever fallen in love on line??Was it worth the hassle & the pain.

You should ask all the married org couples! Funnily enough, once they get together they don't have much further use for the org! Or maybe since they know how tempting it is, they don't want their spouses to spend so much time here anymore?

in my experience online friendships are OK til other people deliberately interfere. especially if the two of you are very close and others want in on that whole equation.

same applies to falling in love with an online friend. imo it's better to stay platonic online and if you start feeling something stronger than maybe organise to meet them.

lol yeah well... think of it this way: if you met someone offline would you put them behind a camera and screen-test them? ur either into someone or ur not so either get to it or stop playin'. heart

I do think you have to meet to determine whether feelings are real or just you projecting your fantasies onto someone. I don't believe in a completely virtual relationship, all that yearning and fantasizing for someone who if you met them, you might not be attracted to at all.

Another thing to beware of, the exchange of information, all the soul revealing you do on chat is not REAL intimacy, although it kind of makes you feel close, it's not the real thing.

I like the time differences, when I need attention in the mornings and afternoons, it's always a boring night for someone online in another timezone and I'm a welcome way to pass the time chatting to mr.green
