In my rather simple, socially conservative mind, you can flirt online, you can even crush a bit online ..... but I'm not sure how you can become romantically involved "online" unless it also includes some form of real-time, real-life contact with the online aspect being an additional channel but not the only channel through which the romance is played out.
As for this individual now being in a "relationship" with someone he has never met and never will meet ..... that's just too bizarre for my comprehension.

I find it bizarre. Like you, I find it possible to flirt online and to get crushes on people online, but if you want to take it to the relationship level you really have to meet and get to know each other properly before you do that.
I guess I was just disappointed because it seems all hy really wanted was a local warm body.
