starbreaker,

I left it a bit late for this month's #IndieWeb #blog #carnival on #DigitalRelationships hosted by Manuel Moreale at <manuelmoreale.com/indieweb-car…>.

This one's called "Digital Relationships; or, How I Met My Wife and Why I Might Not Try That Again". It's a bit of a ramble.

I know better than to echo the received wisdom of my youth and insist that online acquaintances aren’t real. It’s not that digital relationships aren’t real. If anything, they can be hyperreal. The right words on a page or a screen can pierce your defenses and make you feel in a way you might not let let yourself if those words were spoken in person. The right words from the wrong person can shatter you, especially if they come at the wrong time.
