I'd trade any number of fun, flirty internet relationships for one with a warm-blooded lady that I can actually hold all night!

That said, I'll have to douse the ol' torch first.

I don't know I wouldn't pass some of the scaley ones up at the moment. I mean...DIana from V: The Series was not bad in her time :lol:

I get internet crushes as often as I get real-time crushes.

I have crushes all the time but they generally aren't like serious feelings. Honestly it's almost chauvinistic, like I want to make out with those people. SPEAKING OF CRUSHES, mine is picking me up in ten minutes to go to a thing.

SO THIS POST IS SHORT AND SUCKS and I'm sorry you have a crush on that guy and uh... good luck deciding what to do about it.

So that's your harem! Not bad...not bad at all

Nah, Kjas already called dibs on me being in her harem. I don't know how harems work exactly, unless I can have a harem within a harem and have members of my harem be people whose harems I'm in, uh. Huh. Confused myself a little.

Convince Tyri0n to join and you're pretty much good to go. :razz:

Vig visits the harem from time to time, and when he fails to do so, is kidnapped for a short period and then released again. :razz:

Goodluck with hyper, you may have to have an arm wrestling or jelly wrestling match with Bucephalus first, in order to gain rights there. :razz:

Thing is: even with pictures and stuff its too easy to form an idealistic view of somebody you met online.

Why?

Most likely the people you meet offline :
a) arent the kind of people you would be interested in
b)arent interested in you

I've noticed this myself from others who end up falling for me online because of my pictures. I know I'm handsome and all, but keep in mind that I have a personality that you can't fully see unless you meet me and get to know me in real life.

Now you almost know how women feel when guys are utterly uninterested in their personality

I used to have lots of men with oneitis who were totally uninterested in who I really am... Though I thought they were my friends. They weren't. At least you probably don't have to hear lots of insults when you assured them you weren't interested.

Maybe similar in some ways but it's still very different overall. I don't actually have a problem with women having a crush on me due to my looks (and possibly my posts as well). And most of the women who've had online crushes on me are alright. It's just that what spongy said is true about humans having the tendency to fill in the missing gaps in their knowledge about the person they have intense positive feelings for with very idealistic features and traits. It doesn't only affect people who have a crush on me, but in a way, it also affects me because I dislike this feeling of potentially disappointing them with traits they didn't expect if they ever got to meet me in person.

Extremely true.

I would never take an internet crush seriously unless they knew me somewhat and knew what my life was like, especially at the moment.
I'm likely to brush it off, for the reasons that you just stated.

I think about 2 people on here have some idea of what my life is like at the moment: if either of them had a crush, I wouldn't just brush it off, because at least they know both the good and the bad - they're not just crushing on an "idea". Thankfully both of them have enough common sense not to :razz:

I can only talk for myself, but I couldnt have an relationship with a married men. Simply because if a married man agrees to have an secret relationship, then he is not a man, but a childish coward that belongs into kindergarten. Either I am happy in an relationship, then there is no need to have a relationship beside it. Or I am not happy in an relationship, then I should talk with my partner about it and end the relationship.

But that "So, yes I am not that happy anymore in my relationship, but I got no balls and I am a lazy bastard and so do not want to tell my partner, because as long as I dont tell, I get my cloth washed and my food cooked and my butt cleaned. So I keep the relationship until I finally find someone better, and only then I will tell my acutal partner that I have no balls, because then I simply can move on to the next one that will clean my butt..." is simply absolutly lame. Mental 3 year old children are not sexy, anyway if their physical appearance fits to their mental age or not.

Yes, it's a whole other issue, especially if it's not hurting you (and I'm happy you're ok).
Sorry, just reading that was triggering due to my own experiences, both online and offline (that's apparently traumatized me) and it felt like I got hit in the stomach reading that, so my reaction was basically:

But I guess I should keep it light in a thread about online crushes.

I do think it's generally is harmless, based on how much common sense the people involved have and what their definition of a crush is.

I guess this was a part of the problem in my online dating experiences.

Hmm, yea, it's very true for some of the experiences.

I develop crushes online or even at fictional characters. Well my"crushes" are more of an huge admiration and I never take crushes seriously.

Same here, except the part about fictional characters. A lot of times I’ve wished I could be with them, but I usually tell them nothing, because my real-life situation doesn’t allow me to do anything in this regard, and, as soon as they knew a little about it, they’d feel nothing but disgust.

Most of the time, my “crushes” have done, and keep doing, great things with their lives I wish I could somehow imitate, but I’m usually at a loss as to how to even begin.

I have spent quite a bit of my teenager years online with little to do.

I fell for some people a couple of times
I researched into this once I figured I needed it to stop if I wanted to go offline for a while and it is one of the most common explanations/made a lot of sense at the time.

Figuring out what causes things can definately help in this situations(if you want them to stop)
