I'm still sort of digesting this. This is actually very realistic to online romanctic relationships via games, though this particular online world is very advanced compared to what is out there now. 
 The thing I wasn't expecting was they don't want to meet IRL. There is a reason, but it is not a mindset I share, and thus I find it hard to understand. I guess I wanted more internal thoughts on that to help me understand, but it also didn't really make sense to go into more detail there. 
 The story is really short. I was hoping for at least one particular thing to happen, which didn't, just because it would have added a touch more angst and offered a bit more connection to the main character.
