Earlier this month I talked about a chat that I had with a friend of mine. Well if you’d like to read this you can here. I happened to catch up with my friend at the start of this week. The last I heard she was still waiting for a reply back from her friend. He had confessed to hear a few years back that he liked her.
Well, I have an update on that situation.
The update
I caught up with my friend last night. I asked her how things were and she gave me an update. She did have a chat with her friend. He once again confessed his feelings to her. Well, I had thought he was fond of her. Let’s face it when you chat with someone on a regular basis you form a friendship. In some cases love blossoms. I’m not denying that fact at all.
In this case, however, there are other factors in play. But ill get to those in a bit.
Back to where I was for a minute. So from what I could tell my friends friend laid his feelings out and again basically confessed that he loved her. Again there’s nothing wrong with that but for me, I have a few thoughts that make me wonder.
Heres where it gets complicated
Okay as I’ve mentioned in previous posts my friend is in a long term relationship. Her friend is currently in one as well. So according to him, he devised an idea that they date virtually.
This is what gets me…
How exactly do you date online only? I’ve known people who have had virtual love interests. I get that people do this but I still find it mind-boggling. How do you really date? I get chatting or video chatting but if you only meet up in the digital world is it really dating at all?
Yeah I know I have more questions but I’d like to have someone explain this to me. I can see if you plan to meet at least once a month if that’s possible or even every few weeks. At least you’d get to have some one on one interaction with the person. You can also gain more insight into their lifestyle or just their personality.
As I said before this is a bit mind-boggling to me. I suggested to my friend that she just chat more with her friend. I don’t think either of them will act upon their feelings (I hope not let’s put it that way). Then again you never know in situations like these.
The idea of dating exclusively virtually is a bit of an odd one for me. I know for a fact I’ll have another post dealing with this topic this week. So please excuse the repeat(LOL).
Have you ever dated exclusively online only? I’d love to hear your thoughts n the topic.
