Friendship, switchblade duels, backstabbing & sudden surprise cuts from the side in the cyber world (120)
Ambrose2007BFE, South Dakota USA67 Threads 10 Polls 8,881 Postsmorgan5: I can understand the friendship thing, and have met people from the site, and we have become firm friends. I can't get my head round people 'falling in love' and feeling they have a committed 'relationship' when they have not even met to me that is just crazy
What - do I look crazy??

Apostophe: Yes sirryyyy,What would the point of this whole excersize be then?I have fallen deliciously, madly, in love with "people" on this site - the same as I have with Poets, Writers, Artists etc.
That's one way to look at it. That's not how I see it, however. I almost never feel any emotional connection to celebrities.------ This thread is Archived ------

You, people listen to.

I didn't have her on my bedroom wall, but if I had a picture of her I would have: Annette Funicello. I'm from another age group.

Ambrose2007: Dear Zeus, Captain, you're hijacking your own thread!
I had two posters on my bedroom wall: Jim Morrison and Grace Slick (when she was young and very hot!). What a deliciously dark pair!

Yeah, but only trying to show that if you can fall in love with someone on a poster who doesn't even speak to you, I can't say anything wrong about those who do with someone they spend time with on-line.

Apart from Terence Stamp - the rest aint celebrities. It's the word thing and glimpsing a Poet or Writer's soul.

CS is interesting place. You meet ALL KINDS. I don't think the situation here for me is any different than in real life - well okay maybe I tend to talk a little bit more here. Normally I'm just a shy angelic type.
But seriously I don't like crowds. So I can live quite happily with just a few faithful companions/friends - same here. I don't need or want to be Miss Popular so a few is good for me. I would never start threads just to stir the pot or knowingly cause friction, I don't think I'm an antagonistic type. Like most Pisceans I'm pretty quiet and live and let live - mostly. However in my first week of being here and a few times after that I have had to clash swords with a few people, normally it does not get too serious but there have been those that have pushed it. Depending on my mood I may just simply flick them aside like an annoying gnat but if they've caught me in a bad mood or irritated me enough with their natter, I'll rip into them like a pitbull on crack, I've never had a repeat offender so far,therefore I have no long standing feuds and its all good.

CaptainBeirutIII: Heather Locklear from the Dynasty days was on my wall.
heather from any days is good.
what would be the point in trying to reason with someone in person, if you can't reason with them online?
i mean why would it be more effective in person? if someone wants to be disagreeable, won't they do the same in real life?
or were you going to give them a beer and a sandwich to lighten the mood?

Interesting point. I've always placed celebrities securely in the "fantasy camp" when it comes to my affections for them. I generally have next to no interest in celebrities' personal lives or in getting to know them personally, but there have been a small number of exceptions. With celebrities there's usually no dialogue between you - not interaction - which I think is critical to achieving a real emotional bond. True, people get *imagine* that they feel a bond with anything (remember "Pet Rocks"?), so I want to make clear that I'm speaking of a real not imagined bond.
When you talk with someone at length, when you share your innermost thoughts and feelings with someone, it would seem unrealistic to expect that a bond wouldn't occur, even if you haven't been face-to-face with them...

CaptainBeirutIII: You never felt like kicking Bush in the nuts and bite his arm?
I'm glad you didn't reverse those two!!
I don't know. I found it hard to relate to Bush with any feeling but absolute contempt. Most of my anger was reserved for those who allow a person like him to rule a country. They're imposing their ignorance and lack of forethought on me, which I resent.

I didn't fall in love with them...at that age, it was definitely lust. I knew that there was no point in falling in love with someone I'd never meet. And online, I was supposed to meet them, so I allowed it. I'm a lot more cautious now. Next time, love will wait until we do meet, if I even get into another online LDR.
