Poke Me

This day, it is almost impossible to keep in touch, my mother will always say,"the house of the person we love is never too far". We crash each day but do we take time out to know each other or to socialise.

The wonderful invention of the Internet made things easier, now i can sit within the walls of my house, in front of my laptop and chat to whoever. Msn and Yahoo messenger made interaction possible, however where do we draw the line between virtual interaction and real interaction. I understand sometimes, there is a cross over but a distinct line needs to be established.

Networking sites such as face book have made socialising possible and interesting. I can click on a random page, go through their pictures and essentially know all i need to know about that person. Poking is the new telephone calling, face book is the new email.
I met someone the other day, we had a very good conversation, it was only necessary to ask for her telephone number, she turned and said "face book me".

I have even heard about face book relationships and indeed marriages. The world is getting smaller.

My question for this week is;

Is it possible to find/discover something so spiritual as love through the physical means of the Internet?

i think finding love or that person should be left as traditional boy meets girl, i dont like the internet hook ups, most times they are not who they say they are

Men need to be men, I think internet hook-ups are for wimps that do not know how to approach a girl! Be bold! I also think it takes a desperate guy to find love on the internet!
