How do we form such strong attachments to people on the internet?

Asked by WillWorkForChocolate (23163points) December 17th, 2011

I have met several lovely women from this site, and from an old site called wis.dm. They are like sisters to me and I adore them!

In fact, I’m much closer to them than I am to some of my own family, even though we’ve never had the chance to meet face-to-face. We chat here and on crackbook facebook and the phone.

How is it that some people can form such strong attachments to people they’ve never met?
