[vvp/teen] Virtual relationships

Last Thursday's activity, where we had to agree, disagree, or, be unsure about a certain statement read by Tabitha, left me thinking about one question in particular. Are virtual relationships as important as normal relationships? On Thursday I went directly to the "disagree" side, which meant that meeting someone online, is not as important as knowing or having a friendship person to person. However, I went home and thought about it more.

I came up that unless you meet that person, and then keep the relationship going through a computer, then the relationship becomes more important. Also, I think that the importance to a relationship is given depending on the person. For instance, if the person is lonely and goes online seeking for relationships, then the relationships might be a big part of this person's life. Well, I am still confused and if we did this game again, I would directly go to "unsure."

On the other hand, the first activity we did, where we had to work in groups to come up with answers to different questions was fun to see how similar we all think. I really liked it!!!biggrin.gif
