Call Frag Old School

This comes from being bugged by "alleged" women online trying to chat. This reminds me of an incident a few weeks ago on TV3. Some girl (alleged) started flirting with some guy. The guy goes ga-ga because some alleged "girl" says she likes him...blah blah blah.

What the hell is wrong with this vision? Maybe I'm jaded and sarcastic. But...

1- Don't you want to see this person in person? You don't know if this "sweetie" is 3 spins on the scale. You don't know if that pic is the person who says she is. You also don't know if it's really a guy.

2- How do you develop feeling for someone you can't go out on a date and interact with? I suppose dating services are ok, because they are trying to get you to go on a date with a live person!

3- The biggest one here. The person's "mental" state of mind. There's probably a moderate chance that person is semi-attractive probably still is a whack job.

So, I want someone to tell me that online relationships are GOOD. I want to hear the logic behind this if you think they are. Post your thoughts here, pro or con.

By online relationship, do you mean porn?

Seriously though, I think that this online relationship and cyber sex crap is...well, crap.

Well I've some using it a "cyber"...meaning erupting the volcano, pulling the chub, or any other term you can use to apply to it. Also I've seen the online boy-girl relastionships on some RPG games. I don't understand either one to be honest.

Online realationships are for people who can't pick-up any other way if you ask me

Yeah I met my Girl Friend online! She told me she was a very special actress, and that she was very charming and such...

Well all of that talk was BS!!! She was a 900 pound Gorilla named Amy. The one thing she didn't make up was that she did star in a movie called "Congo"!

Other than that the online relationship thing is fine.
