Is online flirting, when you know your S.O. disapproves, OK because you "are only flirting online and not in the real world"?
My opinion (surprise, surprise) is that it's not OK, period. It's said to be OK because it's not face-to-face, and online it's just fun and games.
I call bullsh!t. People meet online friends in person all the time. They even meet their future spouses online. The "it's only online" argument is bogus.
I would also imagine that many of those who feel it's OK would be less than eager to have their own S.O.s discover their activity.
As for you, Red and Clint, if this is real....I hope you guys can see past the bullshit and humor, intended or otherwise, of some of the posts in this thread. It's the damn internet--a fuggin' virtual community behind computer screens for Pete sake, Clint.
On here we can be anything we want to be. In real life I'm a bald, overweight, gregarious fat guy with a goatee, who loves life, people, and having a good time. At times, dumbassery and making lame attempts at a laugh turn me into something less than that here. However, at other times, this place brings out the best in us all. Real life is what counts though. Except, of course, when the two become entangled. :-) [Reply]

What do you look like online?
I like to mix it up. Today it's Angelina Jolie. Tomorrow I think I'll look like Pam Anderson. [Reply]
