An issue that has puzzled me for a long time, how can two strangers get married online? Why would they want to engage in such activities? From the article, some did it for fun and to some others. this was a way of tying knots due to separation, being under-aged or homosexual. However, could it be due to this group of people being unable to find acceptance in real world, due to physical characteristics or other reasons, that they could only find self acceptance online?
I feel that for those seeking fun, trying to tie knots due to separation or homosexuality are just wasting their time. As mentioned in the article, ‘a cyber marriage in a cyber chapel is ‘not a legal marriage’. Cyber marriages will not firmly hold the relationship of both parties. For those who feel that they can find acceptance online, it is only a temporary solution. In the long run, one will still have to pick up his/her courage to face the real world.

i think cyber marriages exist for those who are longing for closure. and to some it is like a spontaneous thing. and i guess being married online is easier as compared to a real marriage because they do not need to go through any nasty divorce.
Hi Zi xiang, I agree with you. i think because of the flourish of CMC, all these weird things are coming out. Well, since we cant stop CMC, then we should look out and protect our morals, which apparently, comes from our culture, and prevent all these.

I think marriage is a symbol of unity between two people and it's not about gaining acceptance from anyone else. Whether it takes place in a real chapel or somewhere virtual doesn't matter much as long as the parties involved are happy. Then again, having a cyber marriage would probably be much less fun/memorable than having a real one.
Cyber marriage is a just fad that will pass.
This article is interesting, having marriages on the net saves time, money and is really convenient. However, I frown upon the idea of a cyber marriage. For me, it brings me back to- what is the purpose of getting married? Is it just a status people yearn for, so that they feel good and are no longer single as singlehood is constantly taken as a taboo? Or they love the other party, which leads to marriage?
Interesting this is the first time i heard about cyber marriage. Maybe i am too outdated keke .Well in my opinion these people who do it might just want to escape from reality .However part of them might just did it for fun as there is no commiment needed to these promise or vow.However this could bring happiness to some of the couples ,as this has fulfill something they have miss out from their life keke .Example people who are too busy working cant afford their time to have a partner .Due to those commitment that they have to provide .But all they need is someone to concern for them .It will be just nice to have someone asking "hows your day" no doubt its shown on the computer screen .This little part will warm up their hearts. And let them feels that there are people who cares for them .And they are special to them in heart(maybe).In conclusion there are pros and cons about having a cyber marriage .However from my point of view i still don agree on cyber marriage .As human are cheating themselves psychologically.No doubt the people who is replying their message is really present .
Thats all folk :)
I just find that these people have nothing better to do.
Cyber marriage seems to be another new News from the net. Marriage is about true love. Cyber means jus having a great fun. If you want to get marry then why still want to go through "cyber-ly". This seem to be like earlier cases like cyber sex.
come traditions should be kept and something as important as marriage shouldn't be butchered by cyberspace! absolute no no!
Well I guess love can develop from anywhere, even the virtual world! People are constantly in the search for companionship, if they cannot find someone outside, they seek from other sources. And like you have mentioned, it can only suffice one's emotional needs temporarily. REALITY CHECK! C`mon!
cyber marriage is for those who choose to run and not face reality
