face 2 face and cyberface

I have not made friendships exclusively from cyberspace, every friend I have contact with on the Internet I’ve had some type of f2f relationship with beforehand. There have been some relationships that have grown through cyberspace, such as people who I have met on vacation or some type of trip. Our relationship may have started as a quick acquaintance while on vacation and grew into a full on friendship by keeping in touch through email, facebook and AIM. It is really useful to be able to have cyber relationships now a days especially because, like it has said in our book, our world is turning into a global village. With so many every day transactions that are being made from city to city the internet helps make it easy to keep in contact with those we meet while either at work or on vacation. The Internet has been a huge turning crutch in my long distance relationship with my boyfriend. He is in the Marine Corps and although he has not had to deploy yet, he has gone to schooling and been stationed all around the country. At times the best way for us to communicate was the Internet and thus propelling us into the cyberspace relationship.
