I have cried during on line play, several times, each for different reasons. Once, because he was really angry with me and I felt awful. Once, because after play we were talking and he told me he wanted to collar me (that was wonderful... still waiting... will happen); and once because it all just got too goddamn much and I couldn't cope. I have wanted to cry at other times. And the after care is more difficult on line - it is more difficult for the dom to guage what's happening, why; and much more difficult to hug! but emotions run just as high (if you are truly into the relationship and play)
