thank you PeterDonis, Nugatory, Albert36, et al. appreciate your taking time to explain. as much as i want to know how it happens, i don't care too much for the popping of my bubble. :)

this is what i deduced, once the virtual particle becomes a real particle, by reason of being permanently separated from virtualness, and falls into the black hole, that mass of the singularity is increased, as you and phinds educated me, be it the particle or anti-particle. but here you say it...

when the matter anti-matter pair is created, then permanently split by the event horizon, and so the mass -be it anti-matter or matter- which falls into the black hole thus adding to the mass of the black hole, thus increasing its longevity, is less than the amount of energy lost by energy/mass...

are you saying that it is in the maintaining of the single particle, for which energy of the black hole has been depleted rather than one of the twins falling into the black hole which is not considered in this scenario's consideration of black hole mass evaporation? the creation of the pair...

have read numerous times about Hawking radiation. don't understand how that can lead to black hole evaporation in so much that wouldn't as many matter as anti-matter particles fall in thus balancing out over time to the growth and evaporation of black holes thus leaving the mass of the balck...
