At a glance on this topic, I thought it was about having romantic relationships with people you meet online. But reading on, I found out that I am greatly mistaken. Hahaha. Anyway. What can I say about this matter? Technology nowadays has been finding even newer ways to get into our lives, even in this kind of matter. There's nothing much surprising in it, actually. Maybe the scientists were running out of things to delve upon with their studies that they just find other aspects to do some innovations. But if I were to be asked, I wouldn't want to have this kind of "virtual" relationship. Perhaps, this may seem to be fun, at first. Yet, there is something with the traditional and conventional way that makes me stick to it, instead with this hi-tech manner. I prefer having a flesh and skin boyfriend, who could show me the values and the qualities of a real being. I would rather have a face-to-face interaction with the person whom I love. It will make my life last even longer.

I don't understand the time of new generation as today..What we called virtual there are lots of work we do now virtually. As i know virtual assistant and so on it means we are working on internet. Am i right? Now to have a virtual girlfriend or boyfriend is the same .. having a relationship with one virtually either real people or what say in that link. I only know is virtual is having an affair or work in the internet.

Wow! I can't believe technology has gotten us so far... If that kind of technology is available at my country, i guess they would substitute it with our instructors. They are also better looking and you can flirt with them. Ha ha ha. I don't want one as my girlfriend though since they are just puppets like the anime Chobits... Anyway, i want to ask you if you have seen one already? Cheers!

Of course I won't. Not even an internet boyfriend. Anyway, is the man who created his own virtual girlfriend really desperate, or he just thinks it's cool to try out technology in shape of a girlfriend? We don't know much.. on the outside it looks like he really is pathetic. On the other he might be. I just want to be slow to judge hehe.
