The Short Answer
Speaking largely from experience here, being an introvert myself. With other people, there are many other social factors at play, like facial expression, body language, etc. Sometimes as much as the physical presence of a person bothers me a little. Other people can also be noisy, too. (which can be especially bothersome if you're [sensory defensive](_URL_0_) like me) On the internet, you (usually) don't see the other person's face, you don't have to worry about things like where to put your hands, facial expressions, body language, or personal space. Humans naturally enjoy social interaction and need it to remain sane. (AFAIK) Online you can enjoy pure conversation without all those other factors getting in the way.
