Re: Cyber-Dating-Yay? Nay? - January 5th 2011, 11:38 PM

I think it isn't the best of ideas, but I am not against it.
I really dislike it and sometimes discourage it because it is the internet--people lie about things and can easily get away with this. You could think the guy is only 22, but can you be sure that he isn't older? AND the huge part is how can you be sure it isn't just some creep? Also, you don't know who this person really is! How many times do you give the truth to people online? A relationship typically occurs because of feelings with the other person, but the problem with cyber-dating is you don't get the same feelings as you do when you meet a guy at school for example.
To me, the good parts of a cyber-relationship is you can talk to the person. It is easier to talk to someone online because you don't exactly fear their reaction-I mean you do but it is easier to spill things out online.

It all depends...but I wouldn't get caught on one guy online. I personally think that you should find a guy in real life and balance the relationship online and in person, but that is just me.

Be careful and I hope you find a great guy either way!


Leave the past behind, just walk away
When it's over, and the heart break
And the cracks begin to show
