Deep Purple Perfect Strangers Lyrics
The internet is a double edged sword. It can convey to us " echoes " of people we have known in the past, both literally and by bringing us into touch with those we have never met, but remind us of people we used to know in " real life " . Here is a quandary that always puzzled me . If we are in regular contact with a person we have never met online, is that relationship more real than one we used to have years ago with someone...but has faded with time in real life ? To add to the confusion I have written off friendships in real life due to a person not playing " ball " online. This was a mistake. Some people are just scatty online and don't mean to offend. Or are they really just playing a game ? This thinking will drive you mad. Ive been there. I guess only a face to face meeting can tell you the answer you so badly need to know, and that isn't always possible. I think people we know in real life are less likely to be game players though. I must admit that I am a little quick to get insecure online or paranoid. I once wrote an amusing musing ( sorry ) about how the Devil invented facebook. I shall try and find it.
Sometimes faith never delivers - Sometimes doubts are ill founded.

//I guess only a face to face meeting can tell you the answer//
ReplyDeleteThat's what I think. When people seem hesitant and try to avoid meeting, I guess the answer is to run as fast as possible. I'm the type who wants to get everything out in the open asap. I've had many experiences with men mostly, who do play games online, and in the end, I'm always branded the "horrible Medusa or Medea" (always a witch-like symbol). Always, each and every time.
What I meant to say is, these people I mentioned, they always procrastinate as to why they can't meet yet they want to continue the internet charade for as long as possible.
ReplyDeleteDo you have romance or friendship in mind for these men ? Do they have romance in mind for you or just friendship ? It would be easy to get wires crossed. I think men like to set the agenda though. Either way confusion will be highly likely i'd say, especially online.
