ORIGINAL: darkinshadows But why are people insisting you trust after a week online? That makes no sense. When you ask about 'letting go'... do you ask with the intention of moving into meeting real time? If the answer is no - then letting go doesnt matter - does it? dark, as I stated earlier "Do any of you folks, who’ve met your partners online, find that it is difficult to ‘let go’ of trust issues that ensue from online activities? Surely real people are interested in real people…and want, actively, to get to KNOW a person? NO? Trolls not withstanding… I’m having a hard time figuring out if I’m having a difficult time letting go or not. It seems to me it is the medium I do not trust…not the person; and I say it from time to time; to keep things REAL. HOW is it I’m the one with the problem? DO I have a hard time letting go? I wonder… I'd appreciate your sincere comments. I'm NOT discussing the one-liners we all get from time to time...I'm discussing a week's worth, or more, of correspondence here. Thanks..." ...and inspite of what SirKenin says; people DO find each other here. I have a full life, (though work now is quiet and boring, so I play a lot here during the day), I go to real munches and parties and dinners with friends; I just use 'this' as yet another medium to meet people. I would just like to know HOW does it work when it works? HOW do you 'let go' and build trust...especially online and before you actually meet?
