Do you feel like you can grasp a genuine understanding of who a person is just through text on online communication at a distance?

It's possible, but I would never bet on that.People lie. Even when people don't lie text leaves out a ton of meaning. You could be having two parallel conversations / relationships. People on the internets are not real, even if they are.

Nope. U might think you do but there are four people involved. You, them , your image of them in your head, their image of you. I met someone from a recent app and whatever chemistry I had imagined in my head was not there in real life.
