The following question:
"Does this guy actually love me? From selfharm (cutting) to not being responsive at all.. Male logic? Should I contact him or not?"
inspired me to ask this one.

Do you think a relationship that happens EXCLUSIVELY on Skype, and you have NEVER met in real life before, but you DID show off your naked bodies and pleasured yourself to each other through the webcam, do you think that qualifies as a REAL relationship?

My take is that "No", it does not. Physical contact is a necessity, learning the other person's behavior in an actual real-life setting is essential to determining the information that would qualify as saying you actually KNOW the person, rather than just what he thinks and what he says through a webcam. Albeit what one thinks is important, their actions also speak for themselves, and an "internet-relationship" is therefore constructed based on a distorted image, rather than a real one. This is similar to being delusional due to being in love and placing the person on a pedestal, except you even add more onto the table for the parts that you CANNOT know, as you have never actually met.

Maosource in the related question called me 'closed-minded', although I think she's just rather biased and unwilling to see that such a lack of information regarding the other person as an individual somewhat breaks the definition of an actual romantic relationship at about three points. (not to mention that they're showing off to strangers on the internet, and that they're playing mind-games on each other, while also being controlling, and as the question shows, hide their heads in the ground at the realization of this being more of a game than a relationship.)

Therefore, I'm somewhat curious what the non-blocky portion of GAG thinks about this.
