Yeah, interesting enough, but I've already found all this out the hard way...

You attempt to be open and honest, reveal your inner most thoughts and desires, they respond positively, then you're left to wonder "wth?" when you discover that the whole time you were only being used to prop up a virtual ego...

Give me being used in the real world over that crap any day...

grumble





(((Allen))) I hear ya :smile:

Joy, my first response was I can't even get some in an elationship and after I giggled for a minute, really thought about the article.

That really is why on-line is so hard. Those really looking to connect with people meet those who aren't looking for that and it shakes them. They are honest and heart felt and share themselves and don't realize that is not everyone's agenda. Kind of puts things in perspective.

This kinda reminds me of the same issue one has with someone who cannot commit in a relationship. You come into the relationship expecting everyone to be looking for what you are and get your feelings hurt when they are not.

I call it a lack of good communication.

It may be that an online question that should be asked in the very beginning is if this is just going to be an online relationship or will it go farther.

This does not always happen online!!! I knew someone and we had real life encounters, and vacations together. WE DID NOT MEET ONLINE. It was an LDR. I finally figured out that he very comfortable with the LDR part. Yes some meetings, but they were very rare. I believe he just wanted the feeling that he had a g/f without any commitment and very little contact. He liked talking on the phone. grumble
Maybe this is all some men/women want what

Doesn't LTR mean long term relationship? Or does it mean something else here?
