Yes, but friendly affection. I don't do long distance relationships.

There are certainly people on WP that I have respect for, and those whose "converstation" that I enjoy, but this has not developed into any attraction.

That's not to say that attraction requires face-to-face communication--I have certainly been infatuated with people that I know on the internet in other contexts--but so far I have not developed a strong enough relationship with anyone on the board for that to present itself as a possibility.

I would think that there would need to be a few factors in place before an attraction would develop on my part for a person I knew only on the internet:

1) Another gay male (a bit obvious, but it does narrow the potential pool considerably)

2) An established pattern of one-on-one communication. Posts on forum threads does not provide a sufficient basis, and even the exchange of PMs lacks immediacy.

3) A body of mutually shared interests beyond sexual orientation. It's not enough that he's a gay man. (It's not even enough that he's a hot, gay man). Absent a "click" that goes beyond the physiological, I'm simply not going to be attracted to him.

(Though substitute "aroused by" for "attracted to" and we could be having a totally different conversation about people on the internet!)

God no, or at least I didn't mean to sound like I was.
It's a bit tiring living the life of a Trappist Monk sometimes, and having someone special around would be nice. 8)
