I have had an online loss. I can understand wher you are coming from..

I had contact with someone oneline for a very long time. then they cut off all contact, then when I finally got an email back it was not them, it was there sister saying they were no longer with us..
I know how it feels,
My online life is as strong as offline, for I create bonds just as strong online with some people as I do offline..
So yes your feelings can be crushed just as they can offline..

And if this has ever happend to you, I am truly sorry for your loss..
