Don't Dismiss Online Relationships As Fantasy

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Friday September 7, 2007 @01:08AM from the asl-dangers dept.

Columnist Regina Lynn has a look at how online relationships seem to be blurring the lines between fantasy and reality. "The common thread among these stories is that people get deeply involved in online relationships and make decisions about their real lives. Calling any of these online relationships 'fantasy' dismisses the impact they have on the people involved and on those closest to them... I have yet to encounter anything that challenges my core belief: Relationships are real wherever they form."
