In an online relationship I do not think it is ethical to misrepresent yourself to the other person. In both face to face and online relationships deception can be a factor, but online it can be worse because there is no one there to verify the information you put out there. You can basically create the person you want to be and no one will find out. In a face to face relationship it is easier to get caught in a lie. Online relationships are more dangerous because of sexual predators. Online you really dont know who you are talking to unless you know them in person already. People can also put fake pictures online and you won't really know who you're talking to. In high school a girl I knew made a fake Facebook profile using her cousins information and picture. She always had a good looking boyfriend and no one could figure out how.  When you asked her about her boyfriend she didn't know what to respond and she finally told everyone it was a fake profile and her boyfriend didnt even know what she looked like.
