Not for me cos' this is the only time I spend on a computer most of the time I wander around the city centre meeting new people out in the real world to, I use to sit on my butt playing games all day because th ex was constently watching tv, and if my mates came round the house heaven forbid they wanted to talk at any point and that was 1 of the reasons I hate tv or computers now, much rathert go

think its easier meeting people like this than in real life

I think it can ruin relationships if a check is not kept on amount of time online. Or if friends and family aren't fellow netheads

I've known some couples who have met online. They got together and set their computers up in different rooms in the house. Then they carried on spending as much time online as they did when they were single. They ended up splitting up.

have to keep it all in check, so as not to forget the time....... hours fly by so fast when having or doing something on pc's.. kids game boys eg do the same i think. jmo

I don't think the internet ruins relationships. Being a single Mum and not being able to get out and about as much as I'd like, the internet has thankfully opened a whole new life for me.

I've met many people from the net, face to face, and they're certainly aren't strangers anymore. They have become part of my life

Easier online cos you get a response faster whether it be possi/negitive

anybody can use my point of views

Apparently relationships can be created online and offline ones destroyed. Some people have already tried face to face or meeting other people in bars, pubs, etc. Others just prefer the net because they're to shy or lazy for that matter(LOL) If you're already involved with someone though, it could put a strain on a romantic or otherwise involved relationships depending on how caught up you allow it to go. Makes any sense? Some get neglected and others do not.

This is true I found someone just last night, and she seems fantastic.

Can do..... we create a virtual world where we pretend to be some one were not.... The net is not always what it's cracked up to be .....good Question though! :-) It can b a psychological withdrawal from the real world too :-(

yes i do but two things the world sometimes is a harsh place and people use it to escape that and the other some peoples jobs dont allow for much else

I think it depends on the situation. The internet can actually help relationships.

In my case, I have a much better time here laughing with you guys than I do in real life. You can get so sick of listening to people complain all the time that it can actually hurt relationship because you start to avoid people because you just don't want to hear it anymore. It's the same old stuff time after time like a broken record.
Being a friend you can be supportive up to a certain point. After that, you become an enabler instead of a supporter.

Having fun online helps recharge your batteries to deal with people in real life.

I agree Anglo.

I have a great laugh on here with most of the posters.. However for me it doesn't compare to real life.

On the subject of ruining relationships, it can indeed ruin them as I found out recently.. Had been seeing a girl for a few weeks but binned her off as every time we were at her place she would sit on the computer for about an hour talking to and flirting with other blokes.. Although she said it was just a bit of fun it wound me up to the point of finishing it...

But on the flip side, I met a woman online on another site a few weeks back and going to meet her next weekend in Yeovil (where she lives).. So I suppose it's all swings and roundabouts..

I think its very useful when searching for something that’s untenable within your own real environment, being at work all day, having to work weekends, spending time with kids etc. can preclude you from actively seeking a new partner.
Ok so you can try a chat up someone at the local supermarket but in my experience the ones I fancy are always in a relationship lol and I am not a pub/club person,
Having said all that, when in a relationship, the internet should only be used for finding info on cinema times etc not for chatting to others. The art of longevity in a relationship is conversation. WITH EACH OTHER !!!

yep im sad
