Is it normal to fall in love with people over the Internet without knowing anything about them other than what they write about?
I feel that's how relationships sort of are in the real world. Except in real life we have looks so that deters us from personality. But take that away and it's pretty much the internet.
I think so. I think I am in love a little bit with a user on here. He's the reason I joined IIN in the first place.
I don't think "what they write about" is a good measure of their personality. I think there might be some projection going on here...if you've never talked to them or met them I definitely don't think it's normal. Perhaps you admire them, but "falling in love" is probably not the right term to use.
Yeah. I've had crushes on people I've only talked to online because of their personality.
Of course, that's only the personality they have on the surface.
The problem with this one (only knowing the personality) or just knowing their looks in real life is pretty much obvious because either way you don't know the person your talking to/ looking at completely which is important for a relationship therefore falling in love is easy but a relationship on only one aspect will most likely not work!
No, people have look expectations and start to fantasise then get disappointed. This has happened to me a few times.
