Is it possible to have a trusting relationship in the Network?

Many virtual partners prefer to build trusting relationships even before meeting in real life. Conducting fruitful virtual communication, they begin to feel their friend subtly without seeing their eyes, recognize mood changes and trust some of their secrets. Such communication is based on intuition, but it is not suitable for all people. Some seekers of personal happiness are afraid that a partner may keep too many secrets, hide his true appearance, keep silent about problems or plans.

Subtle signals

When you do not see the eyes of a virtual partner, you cannot observe his nonverbal reaction to your words, there are not so many ways that will allow you to pull out frankness. Don't be afraid to ask personal questions, and if you get evasive answers, it should alert you. Watch how quickly you get answers and at what time the partner appears online. Be careful if he insists on a real meeting or avoids dating offline until the last moment. Don't rush things and give up impulsive decisions.

Achieving the perfect balance

It is impractical to delay the moment of a real meeting too much. If your couple has a trusting online relationship, an extra month will not make the weather. Studies show that the longer the interval from virtual dating to the first meeting in reality, the more inflated the expectations of partners become.
During this time, you will have time to draw in your fantasies a picture of the ideal world of the future, you will wait for love at first sight and passion at the first touch. But in reality, no matter how well you get to know a person, you will have to deal with embarrassment and awkwardness. If you wait for the first meeting for a long time, you risk getting disappointed.
However, it is impractical to insist on a new level of communication after a week of acquaintance. If you are expecting a long-term relationship, this is too short a period that will not allow you to get to know each other better. Manipulative criminals who ascribe romantic interests to themselves may well find their victim by insisting on an early meeting in reality.

Exercise caution

When searching for a romantic partner online, always remember about two extremes: those who insist on an early meeting, and those who do not agree to it. Cybercriminals who want to extort money from their victim declare their ardent love at the beginning of a relationship.
Some of them insist on a real meeting after a few days of communication. Be careful: this may be a signal preceding a criminal offense (for example, sexual violence).
