Why do we easily fall in love with internet friends? (Girls.. Your views please)...?

Question

I have seen many times that we make internet friends very easily and chat with them regularly. Why do we fall in love with them so easily and trust and care for them even have not met them in person? Why do we share our many personal talks with them so easily and openly which you never shared with anyone else? I have experienced many times and I think most of you also experienced the same many times. Will you please tell me the reason?

Answer 1

because u get to know the real person not someone they are trying to be but themselves

Answer 2

Muslim religion sheltered girls too much 10-15 years ago from what your saying. no Phone numbers and email addresses of the opposite sex, thats ridiculus. In western countries where the internet has developed, the main idea is individuality, especially in America. So yes the internet has played a significant part in the way (muslem) girls are more free to express themself, make their own choices, and live their own lives. This is because the internet connects everyone with the ideals of western society, the internet spreads these ideas far across the globe to anyone with a computer and an internet connection. What makes you think that just because girls are finding their own mate and not having some pre-arranged marriage makes them immoral or unethical? In western society woman used to have little say in the men they married, mostly in the middle ages, ABOUT 600 YEARS AGO. So maybe you should get rid of the idea that women who make their own choices about men are engaging in sin behind closed does. Western culture through the internet has not made muslim girls act immoral, if anything its more civilized. I'm not saying that its okay for 12 year old girls, muslem or not, to go around talking to strangers online, but for a 16 year old to have phone numbers of guy friends at school, or to email them is completely reasonable. You generalize that all girls get caried away with a little freedom. Some do some don't. It's a families job to teach their child what is right or wrong, some kids will still do "wrong" things in the eyes of their parents, some won't. But people should be allowed the freedom to choose, whether they are male or female, one is no more sinful then the other.

Answer 3

I think internet friends are like fast-food. It's quick and easy. But I don't think it's conducive to actually creating "love." Real love can only develop after getting to know someone in real life. It's seeing the person with warts and all and still thinking, "Hey, you're swell." It's easier to conceal our negative traits online. I do think that people can create intimacy more quickly and easily online. Greater anonymity allows most people to be more comfortable with disclosure at an earlier stage in a budding friendship/relationship.

Answer 4

Because we are actually an incognito to them . We lost our inhibitions and shyness. We became bold because we know they can't really identify us. So we do things which we don't usually do with other people we know because of the fear of rejection. We are afraid that if we do these things with people who knows us intimately, ( they know your face, your name, where you live) then we are vulnerable if they refuse us or denounce us for what we did...but in the Internet, who would ever think that the prim and proper office girl is the same " great lover" in the net? No one knows, that is the reason.

Answer 5

This happens cause, when we "meet" someone on the net, we build an imaginary image of that person, of how he/she looks, and we start to think that the person we are talking to is better than the others, cause can easily approach to our desires (we usually never argue with he/she, cause any relationship on the net tends to be superficial). Nevertheless, chatting can be a good way to meet someone when it is done for a relative long period of time, and (if it is possible) talking face to face.

Answer 6

Things are "free" on the internet. Thre are no obligations, no "crap", no dirty looks... You get to share what you want and keep to yourself what you want. It's like when you first start dating someone. It's a different world! Everything is peachy and you don't fight. After a few months, however, reality sets in and life hits. The internet is the same... You don't have to deal with "life" through the computer.

Answer 7

cuz its easier to talk when u're not face to face. its like, they cant judge u. (or u dont see them judging u)... and becuz u dont really know them THAT well, half of the time, what u think about them (their voice tones, their expressions, their reactions) are really your own imagination. thats why it seems closer to perfect. and another thing is, when u're only chatting, its just words... thats all u get to know them by... instead of taking in other things like they're looks, or their bad habits, or weird facial expressions.. etc. u know what im sayin?

but above all, i just think u can be more comfortable because u feel that they cant judge u. and its not like anyone wud fill someone else in about their darker sides, therefore u get to know them based on their best traits... whats not to love about that rite?

aaand there's always that sense of mystery when u're chatting with someone faceless. people also tend to be more confident that way, therefore making them more comfortable. and i think thats always attractive.

sigh. i think im talking too much.

Answer 8

Well, I believe the fact that you don't know them makes the relationship mysterious and more interesting so you are more easily drawn into it.

Answer 9

Because most of the people think that chatting is just for time pass, they just take it as fun, a kind of time pass. And the information they usually give is all FAKE.

Answer 10

It's all plain psychology. as the ppl we meet online are not visible we tend to think of them according to the first impression they give. if we find them to be rude or not of our liking in any way we simply stop chatting with them without bothering to give them a second chance.also if they make a good impression on us we tend to concentrate only on their good points. as for sharing our secrets with them, as we know even that they cannot harm us in any way by leaking our secrets or as it does not matter what they think of us(as in if they want to continue chatting or not) it becomes easier to tell them. mainly as we are not afraid of being judged.

Answer 11

Because you paint a perfect picture of the friend which you havent seen by what they tell you.
