How we find, keep in touch with, maintain and even break-off friendships that have changed so much in the past decade of the net. More than ever before we are all courting casual acquaintances, increasing the scope of our social world and meeting people from all over.
Some of these people we chat with nightly, keeping-up with their lives as they do with ours; in reality they become our modern day pen pal. In others we built a whole new intimacy, one that has only the bounds of the world-wide-web to keep it and we enjoy mutual chatting that leads to just as mutual masturbation. And as we seem to be growing ever more adept at, we also see the mixing of friends as lovers strictly online because we know we will never meet these pen pals.
We see sex dating on the rise with these men and women we never meet because we have the net to keep us together.
It really makes perfect sense, it is a result of convenience and it fits in well with just how much we want to reach out and how much we do not that we would convert our pen pals-if really we even make pen pals anymore-into our sex dating friends. Just look at all the people on Facebook kidding themselves they are actually looking for friends, when we all know most of us are looking to find someone to fuck, or at least flirt with. Look at how many of us are perfectly content not to ever even meet our new online buddies, just like courting pen pals of old.
But when we do meet…
Two people usually do not meet as they continue a healthy correspondence over the years, or they do meet once or twice and realize that in person they have nothing in common. But we can meet a sex dating partner off line and in fact might be prompted to do so because there is a possibility of real flesh-and-blood sex involved.
Then we really see what a pen pal is in modern times.
