Very attached. I learned a new language, wrote reams of poetry and over a period of six months decided if our first meeting worked out I would relocate across the world. It was distressing when it didn't work out.

Not at all, lots of harmless flirting and joking...
The acid test is when you meet face to face.....

Oh yes, fool me twice shame on me! I was also a lot younger and believed people to be as truthful as I am.

very attached when you really know what you are looking for and you find a person close to that
I think we should be very strict on chosing here, so we should figure out a lot of things before spending money on a travel.
Try even an argument to see how he reacts, handle it.
There was this nice, sweet guy.We jumped to messenger. At our first chat, everything was over
just because our chat was days after adding eachother, he couldn't remember me, then i was like "cris, from..." and continued wondering then i asked him if he had drank- this question was offensive to him! Mamamia...even if he was not a drinker...where on earth this is offensive? Take a hike!

I think it is a good place to meet people you would not get to otherwise. Through this you can choose to go visit them or not and see how it goes between you and them. As far as wanting to marry them or what ever else, I don't think it would be too good to use it that way, but good for breaking the ice and starters.

Well...a year and a half later I would have to say very attached...

I never date the internet.
So I'd say not very.
The women on the internet on the other hand...
It's a tool or medium, and just like any other medium, can become addictive...if abused.
I don't think its a bad thing. I've seen many people rush into things on the net, though. My advice is to go slow.

Acid in the face test? That's a rough one to pass.

A personal note from myself is that I find without the intimacy involved I'm MUCH more
able to be objective about letting go if I need to.
Being on this site for a while I've made attachments as if people here are a sort of family.
When someone leaves the site (or many), I do feel a loss. I don't find myself forgetting
them, who they are. I can and do let go, though - because it's realistic to do so.
Emotional attachments are tricky. It seems that the healthiest way for me is to get to
know someone face to face, and, even then, dating without the intimacy for a nice period
of time allows me to make better choices without the heartbreak or feelings of strong
attachment that comes with jumping right into things. Some people are better able to
separate their feelings from the physical act than others. I have a feeling that women are
more vulnerable to those attachments but, I could be wrong.
The internet dating arena is an interesting medium for us all to 'start' to get to know each
other.

Yes, I do think it's easier. Not a whole lot of risk involved. I find it to be
informative, as well. You know, some threads are more interesting than
others. I say, "Let 'em twirl".
I know I have to set limits or I can stay online longer than I intended. lol
