Today, we can form real relationships across the virtual world thanks to online forums, email, Zello or the Jitsi Meet App. The benefits of virtual relationships on the internet are that they can provide opportunities for people to connect with others who share similar interests, hobbies, and values, regardless of their geographical location.
