Lookingforward Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Was just thinking it would be nice to have a forum specifically for online romance / relationships, perhaps as a subforum under this one What do others think ? Link to post Share on other sites
Nemo Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Well, aren't all LDRs online? And if they're not, then they're probably better described as MDRs, or something. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Lookingforward Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 not necessarily I'm thinking more of LDR that began online or are exclusively online There are LDR where the people know each other in person but due to circumstances it is now conducted LD Link to post Share on other sites
Nemo Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Agreed, but I think the distinction is meaningless. The point is, they are - at this moment - LDRs. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Lookingforward Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 but I find I have to wade through a lot of posts that seem to be irrelevant to my situation as they are not people that met online etc Link to post Share on other sites
HisLove Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 We met online too. Not sure if a separate forum would be much different though. For most of us, the majority of communication is via text, im, or telephone - no matter how we met. Anyway, I'll use whatever is given to me. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Lookingforward Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 it was just a thought Link to post Share on other sites
Nemo Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 it was just a thought Don't worry, we still love you. From a great distance... Link to post Share on other sites
compassion42 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 I think a separate forum for online romance is a great idea! It is a category of LDR but with issues that are different from the typical LDR. So I vote YES:) Link to post Share on other sites
Author Lookingforward Posted February 18, 2008 Author Share Posted February 18, 2008 seems I'm not the only one to have brought it up either, found this thread from last year http://www.loveshack.org/forums/t116680/ I think there are issues that are unique to meeting/'dating' online especially where it is within an online gaming/virtual world environment Link to post Share on other sites
TMichaels Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 lookingforward, Like most things in life, even in forums like this one, you get back what you put in. So, if you have issues/questions/problems related to your online love life, post about them! People can't help or learn from each other by telepathy (at least not yet)! Best, TMichaels Link to post Share on other sites
Author Lookingforward Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 No longer in one, but it would have been nice to have a forum specifically for that when I was looking for advice etc. Still playing the game where we met, so who knows maybe I'll need more advice later lol Link to post Share on other sites
