"Sure, at an office, you might see your co-worker's photos of her kids on her desk, and you might chat about your marriage over brewing coffee... but there's something communicating online that can go very deep. Do you agree?"
Yes I do agree. Online people are more honest and forthcoming about themselves. There is something about writing vs talking face to face that allows you to communicate more freely.
