What is the difference between 'knowing' in real life and 'knowing' online?
Do they both count as much as each other, these 2 very different types of connection?
I've read on here a post which I felt devalued the connections we have here.
I find them rather valuable.
I think my in person life connections are more 'corporeal' but they are also more problematic and draining of my limited resources.
They also tend to be with allistics.
What do you think?
I can't speak for anyone else, but compatibility in real life, even if we meet online, is most important to me.
I've had people I've gotten along with online, and we've then met in person and we've not gelled at all. Not because they're a bad person, but we're just very different.
On the flip side, there's people who were just perfect for that.
