Relationships on SL

I am the first to admit that falling in love on Second Life is not easy since I have been through the wringer many a time on here already. As they say it takes two to tango, well it takes two people on Second Life to be in love. Too many people on here tend to hide behind a facade where they hide a lot about their real life and that is like the first signs of trouble when getting into a relationship on here. In my opinion, if you can't share your real life with someone you with then don't even bother starting a Second Life relationship. Someone is bound to get hurt playing that non-sense. I know a few people on here who have fallen in love then met each other in real life because that is the way it should be. How can you say you love someone if you don't even want to meet them in the real world? Yes it is scary to venture from the pixel world to real world but that should be a risk you willing to take when you decide to be with someone on Second Life. Love shouldn't be some arm candy type of deal. If you want arm candy then go link together a bunch of actual candy and put it on your arm but don't use another human being behind these pixels to be that for you. Also you have to respect each other's fault and love each other more for those not so great things about another person. Pretty much everyone will fall down during their time on Second Life where they will make mistakes they never wished they did. However it takes special people to survive those times and love another person fully. I been blessed to meet people who love me no matter what and trust me I have made many flops in only a year on Second Life. I've also been lucky to meet a man who has changed my life on there. It takes many crossing of my fingers to hope that he will love and adore me for a very long time. He sees me past my pixels even if he worships my pixels but he loves the real me. I've told him a whole lot about my real life which not once has it changed his feelings for me. A rare thing to find in this fake world of Second Life. When you find it though then you hold on tight and when you make mistakes along the way it makes your tummy ache inside. Trust me if you do something stupid in an Second Life relationship and it don't make you feel like you going to throw up then you doing something wrong. Love on here is all about the heart, soul, and personality while roaming around behind a pixel facade.
