People think that they can actually have a relationship online here .

Relationships can start anywhere but some people try way too hard and force it on others without realizing it doesn't really work like that.

I am always surprised when I see posts about people meeting others on here, then the post always goes down the "he was lying to me, he is ignoring me, etc" type road.

I just want to shake people, "This is an anonymous forum chat board, have fun, go crazy, but don't expect to meet your soul mate on here."

:)
@Pherick lol I see those too they can get bad.

Yes well. Those relationships are half real and half fantasies.
And if they lie... absolutely a deceiving fantasy..

But some go well. With honest people, that work for their relationship as a couple always👍.

@SW-User I do agree with this, nothing is impossible, but there are people here who are like "I have known Bob for 6 months online, and I love him". Ack, no, you love someone Bob showed you online, big difference :(

@Pherick exactly that's why honesty is the key...
In my case I'm always honest here and don't need to appear to be someone I'm not...
But.... In internet it's easier to lie and be someone else...like you say, appear different and fall for an image we create in our minds.
Imagine, if only in real life we tend to make people better than they are in our minds... Imagine in internet..... tricky! Mostly because honesty is hard to find. Anywhere

@SW-User Agreed, I try and same in real life and SW, it just makes things easier to keep track of :)

I have never quite understood the appeal of lying to get someone to like you, whats the payoff? Especially online?
I’ve seen it work on here although I think majority of them are just for funsies or out of desperation. I think physical presence is important atleast it is for me. 😔
It's possible... But very hard because of other influences. It's best to stay away from relationships on here totally

Maybe it's the only place they can? I don't know, I can't imagine how it would work.

I don’t think it’s impossible.

I can only speak for myself, that it’s not for me.

It's a good place as any to meet someone.
But you cannot spend your lives here.
SW-User
yes but this is not a dating site
