Today we spend a fairly long time in the virtual world. On the Internet we communicate with friends and acquaintances, get acquainted with new people, often men, and the most reckless yet manage to engage in virtual sex.
I wonder if there are any specific rules of communication and flirting on the Internet or the rules we set ourselves ... On the Internet, no one sees us, that's why it's much easier to communicate, especially for people who have some difficulties of communication in the real world . On the Internet, such people are liberated. Quite often such a person is very difficult to know, communicating with him in the virtual world, as if two different personalities.
Internet communication contains certain unspoken rules, adherence to which all the same would not hurt any self-respecting person.
There are many ways of virtual communication. These are, first of all, forums, chats, a variety of conferences, e-mail, network games and much more.
The most universal means of computer communication is e-mail. Features of electronic correspondence are as follows:
- communication is interpersonal or group;
- this kind of communication is always mediated, where the role of an intermediary is the computer and the postal service;
- Virtual communication can always be either a monologue or a dialogue;
- the form of communication can be written or oral (due to the attachment of speech sound files);
- the style of speech can be both business and spoken, up to the use of non-normative vocabulary.
Another fairly common way of communication is communication in various forums. We will dwell on this method of virtual communication in more detail. The forum is an organization for the exchange of information and communication between a large number of interlocutors. On forums you can communicate on various topics with different people.
Advantages of Internet forums before live communication are the following:
- You can communicate with the right people in any convenient place, at any time, in a comfortable environment;
- an enormous saving of energy, time and money with participation in the forum;
- the opportunity to participate simultaneously in several forums;
- the ability to avoid conflict situations with the use of force.
A variety of forums that differ in the absence of a specific social or scientific topic are chats. They are created, first of all, for group communication of young people.
Communicating on forums or chats, many people can afford more than real life, often profanity or offensive phrases. Yes, of course, in the virtual world, no one sees or hears you, but, I will say, any self-respecting person will behave correctly in any situation.
So, the perfect conversation but the forums looks like this:
- there are no obscene words and expressions in communication;
- communication does not contain racial, ethnic or any kind of discrimination;
- each separate post on the forum is written with a capital letter, without significant grammatical and syntactic errors;
- It is also considered to be ugly on forums.
In fact, each community forms its own rules for network etiquette (netiquette). The positions of the netiquette can be divided into three categories:
- Psychological or emotional - to communicate with "you" or "you", whether to use smilies and how many, etc.
- Technical or design - use lines of a certain length, download avatars of certain sizes, use translit, etc.
- Administrative - the rules for creating new topics, the use or prohibition of advertising, the flame must adhere to the subject of the community.
As for flirting on the Internet, here as such there are no rules. In virtual communication with the opposite sex, you need to understand for yourself a few points.
First, do not forget that this is just a virtual communication. For beautiful smileys, "sweet" words can hide is not the ideal of your dreams. Therefore, you do not need to invent Himself, because he may not be who he represents himself. Therefore, it is better not to expect a serious relationship with the virtual interlocutor. Have a good time - please! The rest - at your own risk!
Secondly, very often a virtual acquaintance can simply deceive you (send someone else's photo, deceive you in real age, marital status, etc.). You should just be ready for this. If you are a gambler - then virtual communication is your credo!
The fact remains a fact. British psychologists have come to the conclusion that virtual communication is also treason. Experts argue that virtual communication can threaten people's real relationships. Virtual betrayal brings with it the same symptoms as the usual treason - pain, resentment, loss of trust. Therefore, if you have a real, and not a virtual second half, think in advance whether you need to flirt on the side.
In fact, "virtual relationships" give a good life recharging, help to relax in a tense world, it's nice to talk. People with a developed fantasy manage to engage in virtual sex. Before you a computer, on the screen words ... And if among these words are often repeated words: "hands", "lips", "neck", "tongue", "touch", "enter", etc. - It is about virtual sex. And what a difference what kind of sex is the main pleasure from the received ...
Virtual life is a specific medium for communication. The rules of communication and flirting on the Internet are purely conditional, because you create them yourself, your emotions, desires and ... your own self-esteem. Yes, just self-esteem, as you will communicate at the level you would like to communicate with you. And to communicate simply and naturally, to flirt, to be engaged in virtual love always will be with whom in convenient time and in a convenient place ...
