Just saying that if I hadn't fell for someone online, I wouldn't believe in it either.
I don't think it's for some "strange reason." Everyone changes as they go through life. In the past, written correspondance was the lifeblood of most budding relationships. That waned over time with 20th century telecommunications and the ability to travel anywhere in the world in a day instead of months...

The net is recreating the art of correspondance in a new way and as we become more comfortable with the net, our feelings about it will also change. That doesn't change my feelings about the/my desire to also make personal contact.
