| worn-out astronaut. Had A Life Before GSB Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 28177 | Skatanic.:Same here  I love talking to my friend on-line cause I seem to speak more freely that way. When we meet in person I am all shy and confused. Thats why MSN makes it more easy for me. Besides, if all these people I am friend s with on GSB would for example go to my school I highly doubt I would be friends with them all cause I'm not that much of a socializing person. But just because I may as well never see them is not the reason not to care about them. I remember their birthdays, I feel happy when they are and worried when they have problems and I try to help them. I think of them even when I'm not on-line. I believe them completely so I don't see a reason why there should be a difference between off-line and on-line friends. |

I know she isn't, because I know she's a really great and nice person in real life, but when I speak to her online it's like she's a completely different and arrogant person. I mean, some would say it's not good at all to block your best friend on MSN, but online she's a completely different person  |

If i was in one I'd need phone contact aswell;the consequence of sound. Jack's really sweet to me online, but in life we ignore each other. Never go into a romance with him though...he's my best friend online, most trusted, you name it. |

I think that it's very easy to become close to people over the internet because it's quite an intense setting. It's also a very effective way of getting to know people's inner selves quicker as it's easy to talk over the net, too. I think that if the feeling is mutual internet relationships can be successful, but the people involved just need to be aware that relationships over the net are incredibly intense and need not to get carried away. If neither person is able to meet the other in person I doubt the relationship will last too long though. I mean you're hardly going to marry someone who you've never met and never have a chance of meeting, are you? I think it's incredibly easy to fall in love over the internet but realistically the relationship cannot go that much further if it's not brought into reality. You could keep contact and continue speaking to each other well into your old age but you're going to find someone else to be with romantically, right? You're not going to spend your entire life talking to a computer screan. That's just unrealistic. Basically, yeah. I think internet relationships can work - but only as a starting point. For the relationship to be taken further and for it to last, it's going to need to be drawn out of the computer and into physical reality.  |
| Anji Basket Case Age: 35 Gender: Female Posts: 15914 | I think the one thing that I cannot stand about internet relationships is that people are usually talking in leet. And I haaate that with a passion.  So much so, that I even separeted my MSN friends into leet people (More than half are blocked, including my sister. I can never talk to her online, I always end up calling her.), and non-leet people. |
