Online is or can be so much more fun, as none of these Realities or considerations, or Responsibilities are really there, even though PPL do think of some of them if They become more serious with Their Online Partner(s). Too many times the fantasy rules until One hits that wall of Reality. Day to day bills, work, laundry, finances, and All the other Realities of Life and Living, remain after that computer goes off. Other ITF Pre-Existing Partner(s), Children if One or another has them, and so much more. These things are all easy to forget, or put aside, while One is online. Real Life, day to day Living 24/7 is sooooooo very much different.
Moving from the fluff and warm fuzzies of online to ITF/RL 24/7, there is a lot to consider, all posted here and more.
Another important thing also I'd like to mention about moving an online Relationship to ITF/RT. That Dom/me', Master/Mistress, Submissive or Slave, One talks and plays with online, is a Real Person with a Real Life, just like You. And chances are You don't quite Know Them as well as You might think. Really Knowing Someone takes ITF/RT Time and Experience with that Person. Online Relating does not give a full and True picture of that Person, out of the fantasy mode. Online One may mention certain Realities of Their day to day Life. But when One is not actually there for those things/experiencing those things with that Person, it is easy not to see them how they really are.
This post is Really Good I think for Those who are considering moving Their online Relationship to ITF/RT. It calls to front many things that do not confront One while online.
Thank You for posting this.
