Is Virtual Relationship Disadvantaged from Close Relationship?

How to Conduct a Virtual Relationship?

We have before us a reality that has taken over almost all of our lives; virtual world. The internet, which has emerged with the increase in social media usage, brings addiction and virtual relationships (cyber relationship). In this type of relationship, people start talking without ever seeing each other, and if they want, they go the way of relationship. Couples sometimes bring this to real life with dating, sometimes it remains a distant relationship.

Why might those who have had a virtual relationship choose this path? For them, this virtuality has a meaning. Some to share their loneliness, some to share their happiness, unhappiness or every moment lived. In cyber relationships, couples can sometimes sincerely share their feelings and thoughts with each other through photos or live online meetings.

According to a study conducted in the UK in an article I read, cyber relationships are more likely to result in marriage than other relationships, and couples are 25% less likely to divorce. Interesting result, isn't it? According to experts, this is because people focus more on each other's thoughts in cyber relationships.

The dynamic of every relationship is different. Virtual relationship is difficult. It's one of the hardest types of relationships. It is a type of relationship that you need to nurture more because the sharing structure is very different. The most important point is that you need to have patience to execute it.

Togetherness is not being side by side. Get rid of this prejudice first. Relationship is more about what you share and how deep you can go. The cyber relationship may be stronger than the togetherness that does not share the depth of being physically together and cannot deepen in the relationship. The thing that will strengthen the real unity is the sharing under it. If you focus on this, you will have no obligation to be side by side.

Another factor in the functioning of the virtual relationship is friendship. If you ask why, if the relationship is a type of relationship that starts with passion and proceeds with passion, it is more difficult to establish friendships and friendships together. You are not side by side in a virtual relationship, you cannot spend time together. There is a sharing between you that you owe completely to the means of communication. You can talk on the phone, talk on the camera, etc. The most important thing is that you can share your happiness and your unhappiness in difficult times. And this is about watching you build your friendship. In addition, this sharing request must be two-sided. Another important point in a virtual relationship is to express your feelings clearly and openly. When you are excited, miss etc. Putting it into words can sometimes be more effective than a hug or a glance. Sharing feelings often, being curious is one of the cornerstones of maintaining a distant relationship. It is more likely that you will not experience a disconnection when you come together in a virtual relationship that is carried out in this way.

The executioner of every relationship is ignorance. Whatever the type of relationship, the main issue is communication and understanding. The type doesn't matter that much if you know what you want and who you want and be patient in order for the relationship to work. In this case, the virtual relationship is not more disadvantageous than the close relationship. No matter what type, if you are having difficulty in managing your relationships, it would be beneficial to consult a specialist psychologist to find and resolve the cause of the problem and where the knot is.
