I think VR is like a mirror that can reflect parts of us we might not see in the everyday world, but if we lean too hard into that reflection, we start to forget the texture of the real surface. When people use virtual spaces to share a laugh, a view, or a story that would otherwise feel too distant, it can make them feel closer. Yet if it becomes a way to sidestep the messy, imperfect part of human interaction, it ends up being just another escape. The sweet spot is using VR as a tool that amplifies our real connections, not replaces them.
