ive always had a stronger connection with people i met online; the screen didnt limit me from engaging a conversation with another human 1000 miles away and ive been able to be more open and vulnerable to them than i ever have been with my family. idk why it is but it was mainly cuz on the internet, it was easier to find and connect with someone i shared the same wavelength with, and now i met someone who i plan to meet IRL for the first time and i couldnt be happier.
