I think you're absolutely right - her online life is her way of avoiding her real life.

In 2006 and 2007 she tried working. She blew through about a dozen different jobs, lasting anywhere from one day to several months. She couldn't handle it.

As for where she thinks she'll go... well, she's been making plans with the guy she's been having cybersex with. He lives in the UK, and apparently she's going to meet him in London in September. Either that, or he's moving to Canada (where we are) so they can be together. I don't know how she figures she'll make that happen, financially.

In case you're wondering, I know all of this because I installed a keylogger on our computer, which records all of her typing as well as her passwords. I don't feel nearly as bad about this as I once did, although there are some days I wish I didn't know what I know. I just wish she'd talk to me instead of to her online fling.
