Unexpected Friendship or Disappointment? What to Do After a Video Chat.
I recently met an interesting person on Chat Roulette. At first, we just exchanged common phrases, but then the conversation moved on to more personal topics. We laughed, shared stories, and, having finished the conversation, exchanged contacts. However, now it has become difficult for me to understand whether it is worth continuing the communication. Is this important for both of us and how can I figure out whether it is really worth deepening this acquaintance in real life?
The transition from random video chat to constant communication requires a thoughtful approach. First, it is important to evaluate how sincere your conversation was. If the communication was easy and relaxed, then this is a good sign that there is mutual interest between you. However, it is worth remembering that online communication can be significantly different from real interaction.
Second, try to continue communication in other formats: instant messengers, social networks, or even phone calls. This will help you better understand how your interlocutor behaves outside of the video chat and how he expresses his thoughts and feelings in text format.
It is also important to ask yourself: what common interests and goals do you have with your new acquaintance? Do your views on important aspects of life coincide? Common hobbies and plans for the future can become the basis for a stronger and longer-term relationship.
Do not rush and impose communication. Give yourself and your interlocutor time to adapt to the new format of interaction and make an informed decision about the further development of the relationship. Openness and honesty with yourself and your partner will always help you make the right choice.
