Online boyfriends and girlfriends

Archive: 48 posts


I just dont get this concept, i was on PShome the other day (this is my first mistake lol)

i was at the mall where i met these two people, VickytheVampire and Vickysboyfriend, so i was chatting with them then moved away because they started talking dirty....but the chat log was still getting their messages :eek:

so after the dirty talking ended they actually started sounding romantic, it was obvious they didn't know each other personally because they said they found each other on Home, and that was they only place they are with each other

but i don't get it, why not just go out with a real person, excuse me if i sound mean but i think if you actually need a online lover, thats just sad

but this was just a rant, feel free to leave comments and opinions

lol.

I agree with jack.

Anywho, it's very possible for people to have online relationships as well as ones in the real world. Maybe some people just can't get relationships in the real world and feel that online ones might fulfill that need?

We won't exactly know why for sure unless we ask them. So go ask VampireBlaBlaBla!

never know, i had a friend who had one (not THAT serious) and him and her ended up having a real life relationship. As for vampireface's case i think it's just a raging hormonal desperation.2010-01-04 02:14:00

If anyone has ever heard of Club Penguin? Probably the game with the most Boyfriend/Girlfriend thing of all time. There would be people "kissing" (as they call it) by sitting in front of each other and typing sounds. AND it's a KIDS game! What is this world coming to..2010-01-04 02:19:00

The only reason it's ever happened is because people can't find anyone in real life

I was in a long distance relationship once, it didn't take me long to realise once it'd finished that it was just about the most pointless thing ever. It can seem fun for a while but that's pretty much all there is to get out of it, it wouldn't really be any different if you were really good friends with the other person.

its evil and creepy, thats what it is. it will rip your soul apart just like it did to my friend. its like a demon inside of you,slowly sucking your soul like a leech. i try to keep my friend Uhhhhhh5 away from it, but i cant protect him forever. people should just get real girlfriends and boyfriends, you don't know if thats a guy or a girl behind that controller. for future reference, stay away from it, you could get raped or murdered2010-01-04 05:25:00

I don't know as I've never seen one for myself that's actually worked out. You never know what it's like with people on the internet because they can think things through before they do something. When it comes with just going with the moment, you don't know how they'll act. Plus, you don't really know their mannerisms, and, as shallow as it sounds, how they look. It's very easy to lie over the internet.2010-01-04 05:36:00

Depends on the circumstances, really. I mean actual internet dating is pretty big now. I personally can think of three happy marriages (i.e. people I know) that have come of that.

As for distance relationships, I have a friend who married a guy from peru, and they had a distance relationship going over 6000 miles for a few years. I've also got a good mate who is dating a girl from Australia - she's moved to the UK now, but that was a few years of across the world dating. Neither of these had much to do with the internet, just saying as dex mentioned the futility of distance relationships.


Interestingly, when people were talking about online friends (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=t=20549), the general concensus very much seemed to be that online friends were just the same as real friends, or in some cases even more significant. Because it's the "communication and conversations that define our relationships with others". Surely that's the core of a romantic relationship too. No?


TBH, I don't see much difference between this and people who use the internet to form their primary friendships, because they get on better with those online "friends" than the people they know in real life. It's the same thing, there's just more stigma involved in adting someone through cyberspace.

I'm not interested in it, but the reasons for that links in to the post I made in that other thread. I'd happily do a distance thing with the right girl, but I have no intention of starting a relationship over the internet as I don't think you can really form a bond in such an artificial environment.

All of this is pretty much spot on. However, from reading the OP, I think in that particular case my 'lol' reply is pretty apt and sums these strange people up!

Slight over reaction...

I do find it weird people having a girl/boyfriend in a game. I once saw a littlebigplanet level saying i need a new boyfriend and it described all the kind of things they want in there new boyfriend... all i could do was lol at it.

Yeah I guess I had one or two when I was young.

Then I realized I'll never meet the persons in question, so a friendship works out better.

Also, being called EMOskittles<3 makes me think you are wierd anyways. Not only can skittles not be emotionally challenged as they are inanimate (yet tasty) snacks, anyone who puts emo in their name, or calls themselves an emo, is infact not an emo. Emo's aren't emo to be emo, or at least they weren't. Now that is the 'cool' thing to be amongst all the little teenage girls and the guys who think it will help them pull, everyone wants to be 'emo'. Just like everyone wanted to be whatever the last thing was. Go listen to Fallout Boy and pretend your family hates you, and complain on your pc about your time using your PS3, and complain about how your life is so hard. I mean, look at those children, they get too starve! Aren't they lucky! Your life on the other hand, is impossibly sad. I mean, how can anyone stop you going to a party? How can one have the nerve! It pains me to think about it.

Anyways, back to my point. I think you are wierd anyways, so your thought that not only can you have an online relationship that is as meaningful as a normal one, but that you can also have one WHILST going out with someone already, which once more, seems unlikely, you are one of the people who wants everyone to know that you are going out with someone, as if that makes you cool and that it makes you more mature... 'Look mummy, i can be in a relationship for 2 whole weeks!' ..I'm losing my train of thought here....

In short, I disagree with your post.

Metal FTW.

actually in america, being emo is one of the worst things to be. everyone thinks they suck ***. the coolest thing to be is dressing up like a wannabe mexican gangmember. even the people who arent mexican dress up like wannabe mexican gangmembers. its so sad that my race has been poisoned by a bunch of lil wayne fan idiots. but yeah emos seriously suck, there ARE sadder people in africa suffering from AIDS and starvation and to make it worse most of their parents are dead so yeah take that2010-01-09 03:44:00

This whole thing reminds me of Habbo Hotel where I used to visit when
I was youger. Online dating is everyday life in there. People can
make own rooms in the hotel and bunch of them is like: Find your true LOVE,
the boyfriend/girlfriend of your dreams, blind date, etc... At least one time
on every day someone asks you to start date with him/her. When you walk in
the hotel you can see couples everywhere. I even happened to hear once when
one couple was actually having a sex in a closet... It wasnt always like that,
it used to be a good interactive chat alooooooooong time ago, but then
something just happened, maybe teens became more stupid or something.. I dont know.

The thing about the internet...anything can be faked.
Anyone can be anyone, and make anyone think they're something else. If you get me.

Love is something special, not to be thrown out to any random stranger you've never met, and probably never will. Frankly, it's sad.

Nothing wrong with me. I'm rather normal. What's wrong with you? You claim to be in 2 relationships, 1 real and 1 'cyber'. Kinda wierd, no? Also, the fact you made sure you proclaimed it on here suggests you want to get attention. Or somthing.2010-01-17 20:32:00

Basically emoskittleslessthanthree, I think what our friend Alex is trying to get at is that coming on the Internet and stating on the how you have a real boyfriend and an Internet boyfriend is not really needed. Also, how would your real boyfriend feel if he knew you typed that? Kinda bummed out I guess. Then again from your name and punctuation (not an insult, just an observation!) I'd say your no older than 16 anyway so what the heck eh, do what you want.

On the note of Internet relations; I've seen a few, one being my best mate and some girl from london, and they just don't work out. My mate actually went as far as meeting this girl in person, though after that things seemed to go a bit rubbish. You see, nomatter how well you think you know someone over the Internet, it can never display emotion and personality properly. Ofcourse I have nothing against dating sites and the like as many good relationships do form from them, but that's only when they meet in person and things then truly kick off.

In terms of long distance relationships, that's all down to the couple. Obviously they have a better chance of working out when they've already been together a while before the seperation. That's the case with me and my girl, as I'm in 3rd year uni and she's in 1st (I'm in Wales, she's in England). We started going out a year before I went to uni and things have been great since. Difficult now and again due to the small distance, but generally all sound.

I dont really know about the boyfriends and things, but i do have a pretty good friend on the ps3, hes alot of fun

i also dont have a lot of friends in real life, im kind of the weird girl, definetly not very popular, so its pretty cool to come home and just play a game with someone, and hes even helped me out when ive been depressed ^^

So i guess someone like skittles probably just has the same thing as i do, only they talk about different things xD and play different games! hahaha

I think its not a good thing, not really. Not a lot of good can come of most of them. If you really want one, just go and ram your way into a clique. If they like you, they won't care. If they don't like you, well it doesn't matter that you shoved your way in - they wouldn't have liked you anyways.

In short, there's always someone similar to you in the halls of academia or at work (although having relations(hips) in the workplace is usually bad), church...

I think it's becoming more prevalent because you're not putting yourself out there. not really. If you were, you'd know there was a risk, socially, emotionally, psychologically (, monetarily)...with most online stuff via myspace, home, etc, there's none of that. In real life however, there is.
