I used to struggle with this often and was so sensitive. There is a very large difference in real time and life than online.
Online or any chat platform is in itself is not a “real” place. It is not wise to be vulnerable openly, because we don’t truly know who or what people are beyond the screen names. In particular, this type of site can be predatory or harmful if precautions are not in place. I would say a level of trust can be formed here but not necessarily a binding or bonded trust. It takes a long time to know a stranger online. There are surely enough Netflix specials currently, that end poorly/horribly, even after meeting. I have met a handful of wonderful people here i speak with regularly and have gotten to know them slowly over years. I have physically met 2 in total and 1 was a friendship only. The other will be this December. Again this took 3+ years of talking and even upon meeting, its a whole new kettle of fish. Safety is still in place. That is in real time conversations and evolutions that may or may not be becoming. I overall have positive hopes, but nothing riding or banking on meeting. Nothing will be lost. “Prepare for the worst and hope for the best”.
People have genuine feelings and perhaps even intentions at times. The reality is nothing works perfectly or via conversation on the internet. If its an agreed, identity trusted, or protected, fun virtual fling- there is not much to loose. People often won’t gamble any loss or emotional pain. It takes time to learn, because words can be powerful. It does not mean the actions behind them will be. I highly recommend finding your in person community and exploring- it’s truly lovely, inspiring, engaging and in REAL time. It is the odd and rare time (1%) to discover someone online that is “real”. Even then you will see after 5 or more years of couples -truths come out, people get hurt. It is impossible to land on the right foot when beginning on the wrong one.
Best,
