I agree with @Chantal- that if you crave love from the internet, i worry what you crave actually not love, but a loyal company to talk. Especially, LDR, the risk and pain are higher than in the real world. Because commitment feels a more challenging and difficult, especially if you can't reach them. You'll feel a sense of longing, a desire to go beyond the screen to meet them that's painful, especially when you don't know if they're truly for you or if they have someone else behind their back.
But I admit, it's fun to talk to someone (especially if you chat every day), i understand the fun when you can banter and exchange a fun yet cute messages (in romantic way). But that's only the extent of it. Beyond that, you can't hold their hand, hug them, kiss their cheek, stroke their hair, smell the perfume they use and so on which are all things you can only do in the real life.
Trust me, it's more fun and feel so real to have a relationship in real life, it's addictive! haha
