Some friendships or relationships aren't possible without runescape
Some relationships just aren't possible in real life because you might never meet the other person. You may have met some really good friends in runescape that are from California, while you live really far away, there is a chance that you could've never met that friend in real life. Players live in different countries.
Many people compare runescape to a dating chat room. Runescapers aren't looking for love or relationships on purpose when they first join the game, they're just there to play the game. In real life, people look for love or relationships on purpose. Some people don't get a long with people in real life but have an easier time to get along with players in runescape. In real life, people looking for relationships often try to impress members of the opposite sex, they try to get in bed with them. You aren't trying to do this in runescape and if you meet the right person, it could turn out to be a better relationship because you aren't trying to sleep with them, you know everything about them naturally for who they are. Of course, you still have to worry about people lying about who they are, pretending to be someone their not online. So I'm not saying that runescape is a better place to find relationships. I'm just saying that it can be better for some people. If you're asked for a date theres more emotional pressure, in runescape, theres no pressure, because nobody is expecting anything. Runescape has minigames and other activities in which you can get to know the other player better. You're forced to communicate with the other runescaper because you're always online with the chat on. Not saying you can't do the same thing in real life. This is what people do in real life when they want to get to know someone of the opposite sex, they ask if they want to go to the movies. Compare this to a runescaper having to deal with something with another runescape player before they ask to do anything. For example, a player may have to help another in the wilderness. It's different than actually a premeditated plan to go out on a date or to the movies. You can learn more about the other player this way. Would you rather have this type of relationship or a relationship in which the other person is just trying to impress you?
Usually when you meet somebody for the first time, you have no reason to lie. In real life, if you really like somebody of the opposite sex, you might lie to get their favor. What reason is there to lie to someone in runescape? You won't meet the person in real life anyway, they live far, in a different country. So why lie? Also, you won't be afraid to tell personal things about yourself unlike in real life. You're anonymous. No worries, you can tell everything about yourself! If you get rejected by another person online, you can always try again because you can just log off and get on the next day. Pretty easy huh? Compared to real life.
Finally, lets bring up the topic of shyness. For those in real life with social anxiety, it could really be easier for them to get a relationship in runescape! After all, they're anonymous, they don't need to worry about humiliation. Whose gonna watch you? They don't see you, you don't see them, that allows you to be more honest with the other person! For those too shy in real life, people will just see their outside. Runescape deemphasizes outside appearance. It's a lot easier to see the other player for what they are on the inside because of this. Real life, outside. Runescape, inside. I'm not saying that this is the case all the time. It's like, in real life, you start on the outside, then you get to the inside. Runescape can be the opposite, you get to know the inside, then the outside.
In real life, you could be rejected or relationships may end up in dust, but in runescape, it's possible that relationships may last a lot longer.
