Is there any fundamental difference in who we are because we interact through keyboards, monitors, and phone lines, rather than through face-to-face interaction?
If I stick my head out the window, how I am suddenly in 'the real world'? How is that any more valid than saying something online?
I'm not going to deny, internet relationships are a hard thing to maintain, and most don't work out. That doesn't make them invalid, anymore than the fact that a lot of 'real life' relationships don't work out makes them invalid.
Edit: I was in a long-distance (As in transcontinental) relationship for over two years, and most of those were happy times.
