People has various reasons for wanting to go online chatting. For some it's the way to get connected to people they are fond of whom they have met online over the years. For some hardworking people, it's a form of relaxation after a hard day's work, especially for those who enjoys being alone, or for some reason, by choice or not, are living alone. For some again, it is a very interesting and easy way to meet and communicate with people from all over the world and to find out about their cultures and ideas. These are only some of the reasons...what's yours? Care to share them??

That people behind this relationships have nothing else going on in their lives and are afraid to face the "outside" world. How much truth is in that?
Personally, I think that most of the people that come onlines are those that have MORE time in their hands to mingle socially with friends online. They have a good job and are just too tired to go out anymore. Some too prefer the solitary confinement of their homes rather than mingle with friends and chat and/or drink after a day's work. And if in one of these times they are online they come to meet someone they find interesting, I think that is as normal as finding/meeting someone inside a bar or bumped into in some public places like the mall or comfort rooms. And too, most often than not, people that are not into things that others are, like smoking, drinking, dressing up outrageously etc..etc..think that these things are "bad". I say each to his own.. |

i could agree more Witchy. In addition to that, some are so busy with work that they are always in the computer. With cyber technology it is the number one thing now to communicate with other people besides text messaging. And during their down time or break, they go online not because they are bored but just looking for fun and excitement that goes on chat and also its not because they dont have better things to do .And more over some are just burnt of the bar scene. They rather chat and find interesting people on chat. Compares meeting in online versus the bar scene, some find chatting online more interesting to meet and getting to know those people better. And most busy professionals, you find them more chatting on the net rather than meeting people in bars because of time. They cant find time to go out because they are too busy doing the most important task.

I couldn't agree more witchy poooh.... the reason I chatted was because I was so bored in the office that I want to try something new and see what the fuss is about... i never thought that I would fall in love here... not even in my dreams...
I know there are various reasons why people chat... I use the yahoo messenger before to talk with friends abroad... but because the article I wrote was for the LOVE month issue I limitted the topic to that extent only .... and believe me guys really SOME people , like the skeptics thinks people who FALL IN LOVE on line are losers!
Read the article I wrote in full text so you know where I'm coming from. Thanks 
 are stones being casted at me now  yikes!

Earth,
We are not throwing stones on you. This is actually a good thread wherein one can tell or defend himself/herself to those SOME contracted minds (I must say) and let them know that their perception of online involvement is not as what they think.
And here is one fact from me to contradict the statement of the SOME. Most of the people I know and chat with are professionals, have good jobs, and therefore, good life.
I instead think that those who view online relationships purely negative, are those who don't have confidence on themselves--they can't afford, they are not sure of themselves and that they won't be liked when seen in person. Therefore, they are the losers and not those who are brave to take risk in an online relationship.

I totally agree with Mercedes (Earthling?) and Krissy. This is not because I do have an online relationship that is going on smoothly still. (I left my brain when the plane stopped over in HK. LOL. What is the connection? I'm still completely scatter-brained).
I'll get back with you on this one. lol ....
Bottomline: I understand you completely Mecedes ....... you go girl!

I could not agree more Krissy. And for you Earth, we are not throwing stones at you in anyways. We as a moderator, often times find topic that we get ideas from what you or other poster had recently open or comment on and we find it as a debatable topic. This is a great way to express our own opinion or ideas. Don’t get too much offended if we got anything out of what you are doing. There are portion of the articles that some perceive us online chatters, as there is no life. This is what im trying to relay on you about your opening in the article. As a readers point of view, I don’t care about the other stuff, it will give me discouragement to have any online relationship and doubts about online relationship since "based on the facts" that you gather, It gives me the illusion that people who meet and found love online are merely losers who is just looking for love. All I see is all negative opening not very positive opening which is a full discouragement as I view it.
I am just trying to view my point to the other side of the positive people who comes online not because they are bored, no life but there are some professionals that find the Internet the easiest and more convenient way to interact with the opposite sex. That their social life to meet people in their surroundings contradicts their busy schedule. I have meet and chat with people who are Doctors, Lawyers, and Business Entrepreneurs who are using more Internet to find their love of their life or merely finding friends online. And the most accessible tools they can use are the Internet while they are working at the same time. You see, there is so many reasons, but yet the part where you single out those bored and crazy lunatics, is where I feel very discouraging part of the article. And again, you brought a very great Topic Earth. Thanks for your ideas...Hehehehe..We try to get more great ideas for great topics to discuss!!!! I just feel that this is a great topic to discuss. And again I am not criticizing you but i am merely trying to depend those people who comes online and used the internet as a means of entertaining or the easiest and most convenient way to interact people.
 Lets drink to that!!Salute to the great job as well Earth..that is a very hard topic to write. More power to you!!!
