The alluring thing about chat rooms and the people you meet in them is that you create this perfect being the satisfies all your needs. When you get in this sort of relationship you feel free to say things that in "real life" are inhibited by.....well hmmm, your learned social behavior. When this guy gets to italy he is going to be in for a big let down because all his real behaviors will fall in place and he will will react the same way with this woman as he would with his wife. Also the italian will not be what she seemed on-line. It is really a sad thing. It is too bad we (those of us who fall for people on-line) cannot seem to seperate "real life" from this computer fantasy. That is what it is, a fantasy.
