  5. Sorry i'm Rozita Awang (GB00697). This my new nickname.My comment:

    In Cyber Romance, release whats your hidden desires that cant be true because you are not that too confident to do that in personal..That percentage could very well be the way it is. Never assume they will all speak the truth, because most won't.

  7. Which in cyber romance accordingly is the multidimensional interference points of virtual individuals expanding universe at the speed of light. The problem is that if we should find the perfect partner in cyber space our desires are fulfilled merely on the level of ideals. We must be satisfied with the image that the medium allows to create to suit our desires without a form. In a relationship such as this the honeymoon passes without reservations yet without consummation while discovering new, even perverse characteristics of our partner. To make it simpler, we don't even have to share living space with anyone and in the cyber world there is no HIV virus.

  8. Cyber relationships are relationships between two (or sometimes more!) people over the Internet. Many people use online collars to show their relationship with another person.

  9. Millions of people are "e-dating" in the hopes of finding that perfect someone. Online dating services such as Match.com Match.com and love@aol.com are thriving as men and women post ads and photos of themselves in search of the perfect mate.

  10. n addition, most sites allow the user to place a photo along with a personal ad, and some even have audio capability so you can listen to your potential soul mate's voice. While this may sound a bit superficial at first, Internet dating actually takes the whole "meat market" aspect out of the dating process because it allows you to weed out the players.

  11. Romances formed on the internet follow a characteristic script. The development of emotional intimacy is a long process, sometimes taking several months. "Love at first byte" is rare although there are examples .The initial light exchanges, whether by e-mail or in chat rooms, are generally followed by increasingly self revealing topics, where after a while the two strangers perceive each other as a true friend. Hearts open and an avalanche of e-mail crosses cyberspace carrying literary quality, electric messages are even enhanced with verses, virtual gifts (flowers, kisses, animated pictures). Could any heart with romantic inclinations resist? When you reach for the mouse with sweaty palms and butterflies in the stomach to look in the in-box for new mail - there's just no way to escape the fact - love has arrived.

  12. What factors lead someone to a cyber-romance? Is it the exotic quality of it?

    The "exotic" quality of a cyber-romances might be one factor that attracts some people. Using computers is a relatively new way to have an intimate relationship with someone. Because it occurs through this seemingly powerful and mysterious thing call the "internet" or "cyberspace", it may feel exciting to some people. The lover's presence enters your home (or office) without the person physically being there, which feels very magical. On a more down-to-earth level, people are drawn to cyber-romances for the same reasons they are drawn to "face-to-face" romances - either they don't have a "real-life" love relationship, or there is something missing in their "real-life" love relationship. On the internet, they may indeed find what they are missing. Or, because of the partial anonymity of cyberspace, which allows lots of room for fantasy and imagination, they may THINK they have found what they are missing.

  13. When the feelings are mutual, is the cyber-romance a true relationship? What about when they actually meet each other?

    Cyber-romances can indeed be "true" (genuine) relationships. A great deal of intimacy is possible simply by communicating with someone through typed text. Some people believe that they are more directly encountering the mind, heart, and even soul of the other person when they are not being distracted or mislead by the physical appearance of the person, as in "real life." Of course, there is also much to be learned about someone by being with them physically. Physical presence is an important dimension of communication and intimacy. This is why most people who fall in love on the internet eventually feel that they MUST meet the person. Physical contact is a basic human need, a basic element of human intimacy. You can't hold your lover in cyberspace.

  14. My guess is that in a "true" romance on the internet, the couple eventually will want to meet each other face-to-face. They may HAVE to meet each other for the relationship to fully develop and to be fully satisfying. For these people, the internet simply was a way to meet each other. I say "simply" but this feature of the internet shouldn't be underestimated. It is a POWERFUL way for people with compatible interests and personalities to find each other.

    There are some people who may NOT want to meet the lover face-to-face. My guess is that these people prefer living with the fantasy that they have created (consciously or unconsciously) about the cyber-lover. The couple may be collaborating in the creation of a mutually satisfying fantasy that portrays themselves in ways very different from how they truly are in reality. They may not want to meet each other face-to-face because the fantasy might be destroyed by the hard facts of reality. Who can say whether this is "wrong" or "dangerous?" Many people allow themselves the luxury of fantasy - either through books, or TV, or movies. And most people don't confuse this fantasy with reality. A cyber-lover is just another type of "escape fantasy" - only it's much more interactive, and therefore much more exciting, than the more usual methods.

  15. Cyber relationships are long-distance relationships which primarily use technology as the medium of communication. This may include e-mail, chat rooms, video cams, phone calls and ICQ. Partners may meet only occasionally or sometimes not at all. The online experience is not defined by whether or not the partners experience Dom or subspace, but rather whether or not they define their own relationship as being in the BDSM context.

  16. There are many questions that can be and stay unanswered about unknown persons at the other side of the Internet connection. The great help of the body language and facial language in motion is not there, the voice might be missing unless a voice chat or the phone is used. In other words, your intuition is in shaky grounds to realize who the other one might really be until a real encounter occur. And even when it occurs, the only usual objective references are just the words of the other one.

  18. Dear 'Powergirls',

  19. There is so many factors of cyber romance.If you are single and wish you weren’t, you are not alone. Did you know that there are now as about as many single as married adults in the United States? And many -- if not most -- of those millions of eligible men and women wish they had a partner. Just like you.
    So if there are so many singles around, why are so many people having trouble finding a good partner? After all, movies make falling in love look easy – with a few obstacles thrown in to make the film interesting and 90 minutes long.

    But real life is not the movies.

    Here’s the secret that just about every single knows the answer to: Finding love – and a good partner – is HARD.

    There. I said it. Not like something you didn’t know already, right? But here’s something you probably don’t already know:



    Why you may still be single:
    1. People are living much longer than at any time in history.
    2. There’s less pressure for couples to stay together if the relationship is not working.
    3. Young adults are putting off marrying for the first time until they are well into their 30’s and 40’s.
    4. Individuals can easily have two, three, or more long-term, committed relationships – and relationship endings – over their life span.
    5. Once a single gets out of high school and college, he or she is never again in situations with so many other eligible singles.

  20. People who like the idea of the internet,lonely people who feel less lonely and more connected to the world through chating on the Net.

    Married people who are not happy in their marriages, and are looking to "feel good" about themselves by meeting someone who cares for them.

    Plainly there are very lonely people out there, who can at least feel a little accepted and liked on the Net. I for one certainly see nothing wrong with it.

    Another factor, that i was curious about myself was how many of these people are telling the truth about who they are and pretending to be.Of course, everyone is trying to portray a good side to themselves that happens everytime in cyber.

    So the big question is, is this cyber relationship real or a dream?. If you ask me ,I will say yes it is, but it most certainly is different from a true life relationship. The main concern of people is the lack of physical feedback,which can limit the reality of the relationship.

    Facial and body language when talking to somebody can certainly be helpful in determining if you are communicating. If a person is being sarcastic, serious, angry or happy, facial expressions can help understand. Besides,there is no doubt the sensation of touch and soft caresses.etc goes a long way towards developing a good relationship and a better understanding between a couple.


    There are some other factors that in my mind are better in cyber relationships. For one, you are forced to talk before any physical contact takes place. It has always been said that you should be friends before lovers, and the Net sort of forces this issue. Also, i believe you can learn a lot from a person just by what they type and how they type it over the chat room.

  23. Make Sure to Delete Mr. Wrong
    "Little white lies" on someone's profile may be harmless, but there are some creeps trolling the online dating services. If you're going to cyber date, here are some screening tips to help you delete Mr. Wrong:
    • Ask a man for a photo. If he doesn't send one, or keeps making up excuses, there's something wrong. Of course, if he has too many photos with his ad, that can be equally problematic.
    • Ignore men who write form letters or send only a "wink" or a "rose," or who write something like "you're sexy."
    • Don't answer email from men with "player" names, such as "MeTarzan."

  26. Hye,
    Cyber romance
    How many relationships do you know of that began in a chat room or through
    the simple exchange of electronic mail and turned into real life relationships? For many people, cyber relationships never become reality. They use them as a fantasy and way to role play, to be whoever they want to be. For others, they are their only real out-of-home contact and can be a lifeline. There are many
    people, who, because of disabilities or choice, rarely leave their homes. And for these people, cyber friends and relationships have become a major part of their lives. Many otherwise shy people, overweight people, or people who don't have many friends in real life suddenly find themselves popular, flitting from
    chatroom to chatroom, their mailboxes overflowing with e-mail and FRIENDS.

  28. The ffective of cyber romance is this study examined the causal relationships between the number of cyber-friends participants had and their social anxiety or loneliness. We predicted that participants who gave low self-evaluations of physical attractiveness would be able to lower their social anxiety or reduce their loneliness through Internet-based interpersonal relationships. Also, such effects would be more prominent if the cyber-friends were of the opposite sex. A two-wave panel study was conducted with 178 Japanese undergraduate students (63 men and 115 women; mean age was 20.29). Results showed that for those who gave a low evaluation of their physical attractiveness, having a large number of cyber-friends lowered their social anxiety and reduced the loneliness felt in friendships. These effects differed by gender of the cyber-friends. In particular, for those who gave a low evaluation of their physical attractiveness, having a large number of cyber-friends of the same sex had a positive effect on social anxiety. In contrast, cyber-friends of the opposite sex had no effect on social anxiety, but had a complex effect upon loneliness. Namely, while a large number of cyber-friends of the opposite sex reduced the loneliness felt in friendships, it also heightened the loneliness felt in family relationships. Implications of these results for further research and practice are provided.

  32. Cyber a prefix that means ‘computer’ or ‘computer network’, as in cyberspace, the electronic medium in which online communication takes place.

    Romances formed on the internet follow a characteristic script. The development of emotional intimacy is a long process, sometimes taking several months. The initial light exchanges, whether by e-mail or in chat rooms, is generally followed by increasingly self revealing topics, where after a while the two strangers perceive each other as a true friend. Hearts open and an avalanche of e-mail crosses cyberspace carrying literary quality, electric messages are even enchanted with verses and virtual gifts.

    Finding love and romance online is becoming incredibly popular for a mainstream audience that is looking for fast, easy help in managing and finding relationships

  33. Love is any of a number of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affection. The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure to intense interpersonal attraction. This diversity of meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.

    If you’re a teenager anymore or if it has been awhile since you have seen your twenties, thirties, or even meeting mate possibilities via the internet has a lot to be said for it. The biggest positive factor may be the privacy namely keeping in mind that internet communications may not be completely secure. This privacy is enormously freeing. No one sees anything that you do unless you want him or her to, so you are free to make moves that you would never dare to do in tour everyday life. You can define yourself, as you want to be seen. You can highlight parts of yourself that may not be that obvious. And you are free to look. From home. In your pajamas. You can look and look. It’s lot like going shopping, but simpler. As well, you can be as anonymous as you want to be, or as public as you dare.

  34. Cyber romance can give negative effects too. It’s because the couple eventually will want to meet the lover face-to-face and misunderstanding each other. They may have to meet each other for the relationship to fully develop and to be fully satisfying. For these people, the internet simply was a way to meet each other. It’s simply but this feature of the internet shouldn’t be underestimated. It is a powerful way for people with compatible interests and personalities to find each other.

  35. Some people believe that they are more directly encountering the mind, heart, and even saul of the other when they are not being distracted or mislead by the physical appearance of the person, as in real life. Of course, there is also much to be learned about someone by being with them physically. Physical presence is an important dimension of communication and intimacy. This is why most people who fall in love on the internet eventually feel that they must meet the person. Physical contact is a basic human need, a basic element of human intimacy. You can’t hold your lover in cyberspace.
