Millions of persons meet online everyday. After psychological research, it's been proven that 75% of online relationships evolve to IRL -in real life- dating, with as many chances to succeed as any other kind of relationship.

It's even said that online relationships are better and last more because, without physical interaction or outter distraction, lovers get to know eachother betterly. (BBC)

Of course not everything's beautiful. It takes a lot to mantain an online relationship, but as with IRL, love does most of the work. There's a lot of loneliness and lovesickness to face together, there's tears, silence, drama. On the other side, most people will never accept you have a real relationship, they'll think it's only a game, or that you're fooling yourself. They'll get worried, specially if you're young. They'll make fun of you and your lover. Most people refuse to understand.

But when lovers really want to stay together, these things can be ignored or minimized through word-cuddling or just simple support.

There are many studies out there about cyber-dating. They argue about the dangers of the difference between online and IRL behaviour, honesty problems, lack of bodily contact, etc. Many of these essays have stayed behind. Technology evolves too fast to let anybody stablish a theory on online relationships. These days it's not only about typing and sending e-mails, and waiting days for a reply. Instant messaging, improved audio-quality conversations that can last as much as you want, and video-conversation have signified a revolution in these day's cyber-dating. Things like these I have proven with my own personal experience.

My mission, hence, is to let people understand that distance relationship is possible, and beneficial. It has it's dark side, but what doesn't?. It'd be ideal if we could make a huge fundraising to help cyber-lovers meet, for those who don't have enough funds to make it possible.
