coffeeminx: Reality vs Virtual . . . any difference????


Well reality is the only way to fall in love and out of love. Virtual is fantasy which is where we all are now in fantasy world.

Still it's a nice place to go to relax and chill out, chat to CS friends. As for meeting up in the fantasy world only a tiny percentage meets in the real world. Yes there is a huge difference to Reality and Virtual. bunny typing angel2 la la la cartwheel

it is completely different, and even within each is different levels of stability and as people are so very different, for some they may choose one instead of the other. I have always chosen to meet as a goal and therefore it would not make sense to me to stay in the virtual world.
At some point I would have to meet.

Unfortunately, you're not able to choose multiple options, which makes it next to impossible to answer your poll in a satisfying way (for me), Coffee.

I think a virtual relationship is much easier to begin and end *usually* for the obvious reasons. All you have to do send and reply to emails/phone calls, and to end the relationship merely stop replying to/sending emails and phone calls, and - voila! - c'est finis. The emotional bonding will usually be less in purely virtual relationships, of course.

However, virtual relationships can sometimes be more difficult to disentangle yourself from because so many questions have not been answered. So you hang on, hoping to get those answers. But then, sometimes that's the whole point: one or both of the parties involved may not actually want the answers - preferring the haze of possibility instead.

I like the way you equate the virtual world with a Fantasy, it calls all types of mythical creatures to mind thumbs up

In a virual relationship you can take the chickens way out and not have anymore contact.

Reality about the same.
