[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 689526, member: 18958"] You know, I have been hurt with cyber relationships. I did not understand the rules. The whole point that I did not get, is that they are defined by what they are not by what they are. They are not real. I am not saying that people pretend, but they can--and they can risk without obligation and commitment. How is there really a relationship without obligation and commitment? It is almost as if the only real relationships we have on a site such as this, is with ourselves. Why in the world would we not want to tell the truth to ourselves? Or at least try to? These are really "mirror" relationships in that we see what we wish to or what others wish us to see. Your distant cousin is creating a persona that he would want to have. How little he realizes he reveals his limits and his vulnerabilities. After all is said and done would it not be more satisfying to accept who he is? [/QUOTE]
