This paper will examine the virtual behavior of internet users in cases such as virtual love. Gathering a 550 sample of the Iranian users, the present study shows that these perceptions of the Iranian users are far from the reality and virtual relations can leave negative consequences on the life of the person in the real world. The mysteriousness of the virtual relations evokes a curious sense in the user. What is the person whom I am communicating look like? How tall is he/she? How old is he/she? Is he/she from a different sex or just wants to take me into a clueless game? Currently more than a half of Internet users are living in Iran and research show that most of these users use this medium for the appeal of virtual relations. These types of love promoting efforts on the internet also seem to be less dangerous and everybody is tempted to experience these kinds of relations.
