Virtually

An advertising buzzword that can mean "almost", "somewhat", or "not", but never "absolutely".

What the ad says: "This product is virtually indestructible!"
Translation: "This product is maybe, sort of, not really indestructible!"

virtual intimacy

souls touching without speaking

We I read what you wrote it's like kissing the nape of your neck, wrapping our fingers together, seeing you though we are apart, in splendid virtual intimacy.

virtual space

an area in virtual reality perceived by users to be a place you can move around in

made popular originally by games like Doom and Unreal, and books by writers like William Gibson (Neuromancer) and Neal Stephenson (SnowCrash)

if the virtual space is large enough, whole houses, cities, continents, planets can be defined and built, and usually a user can travel around and interact with all parts of that virtual space

In SnowCrash, Hiro built his house on the main drag of the Metaverse - a personal virtual space within a shared virtual space. When you entered his virtual house, it expanded inside to a virtual space many times larger than the outside would suggest. You can do that with virtual spaces.

"Hey dude! Get your virtual ass out of my virtual space! Or I'll frag your sorry ass!"

Virtual relationship

A relationship where people are not physically present but communicate exclusively using online, texting, or other electronic communication devise.

They have a virtual relationship because they don’t speak to each other in real life. They text each other during school and chat in the evenings online, but when they see each other at band practice they don't say a word to each other.
