”I knew all these things about her, but I’d never even talked to her, I don't think it necessarily unhealthy, but I guess it depends how you interpret 'talk'. I actually read that line as that Blacomb hadn't communicated with her at all - for example, I've got a whole bunch of 'friends' on FB whom I used to interact with at College, but we've gone our separate ways and now never speak to each other and all I see are their FB updates. In that sense, I think it is unhealthy if you associate that passive one-way comms as 'friendship'. However, if you take his stament of 'never even talked to her' as literal voice communications, then I agree that I think it's perfectly fine. If theyare exchanging two-way comms on FB, I don't see it any different to a long distance relationship of old where people wrote letters to each other.
