| Is it possible to fall in love with someone you never met? Posted: 4/15/2006 1:54:45 PM | I have recently got in contact with someone from this site. Unfortunately we live quite a way from each other but we email and text all the time. We are so open with each other. I never in a million years thought it was possible to fall for someone without actually meeting but it seems to be happening to me. I may be wrapped up in a fantasy world, but it feels so natural. I do believe you can fall in love with someone without actually meeting them, you are falling in love with their personality that shines through. Don't let people cast doubt in your mind, if it feels right for you, then you have to follow your heart!

| Is it possible to fall in love with someone you never met? Posted: 4/15/2006 2:35:57 PM | You know, for us that have in fact fallen in love with someone before we ever met them, lets not let anyone come here and tell us it's impossible or that we fell in love with a fantasy or what we want that person to be. All these armature psychology buffs haven't got a clue. it never happened to them. They can't face the facts that it has happened to some of us and it was very real. BGut they will stick to their opinion that it can't happen in light of the evidence presented here that it can happen, has happened and is more then possible for it to happen to anyone. Dids any of us think it was going to happen? I bet not. I would have said the same thing before it happend to me. Then when we fianlly met ands spent time together, it only served to make us love each other more.
Maybe it can't happen to them. But to say it can't happen is just being blind to the fact that it has happened, and will happen to more in this age of technoligy. For some it will work out, for others it won't. It took 3 years for my long distance on-line relationship to fail. But again, it was very real. | |

| Is it possible to fall in love with someone you never met? Posted: 4/15/2006 3:15:45 PM | You know, I'd RATHER fall in love with someone through reading what they write on the forums and our personal emails to each other. Sure, we had pics of each other. So what? It wasn't like we met, he said hello in his sexy voice and my hormones were jumping all over the place, I'm sure I could have fallen in love with him that way, yes meeting him first off face to face. But I find him EXTREMELY physically attractive, so much MORE so in person. Now I'd have to have calmed my racing heart and hormone level down to even try to talk to him. Seriously, I got to know his mind and heart before I saw those gorgeous captivating blue eyes and handsome face and just everything about him!! And he's smart AND funny!! I'm glad it happened the way it did. I think it was much more real, as my feelings were based on HIM not just what he looks like.  | |

Love is both emotional and physical. A lot of people know each other online and they become interested in each other, but once they meet in real person, they get turned off because of the physicall appearance or some stuff that wasn't discovered before. | |

| Is it possible to fall in love with someone you never met? Posted: 4/16/2006 10:18:17 AM | | I think so. It is happening to me. The man I am talking to is a great distance from me. I know that it can only go so far here. We have spent many many hours talking here, we talk everyday and we talk about everything. I have told him that I would like to meet even if a relationship does not develop. For now, we are friends, but he knows how I feel. | |

| Is it possible to fall in love with someone you never met? Posted: 4/16/2006 6:52:49 PM | yes its possible... anything is possible when love is involved...
just be careful and dont go blindly into a relationship... get to know the person in person... that is prob the best way to see if he is truely the person you fell in love with...
but dont by all means just cut him out... play along and see where it goes... best of luck to you guys

STILL!...... the first stage of love!.... is :..INFATUATION!
and is possible, to get with out meating in person!.......
which can be mistaken for love!
this is a dangerous, .... first stage of love!......
because this is the inatial, begining, where everything if perfect!
the attraction is there!... and there is enough chemestry!... to know that the interests are there!
at this stage:... this person could never be any better!... no morning breath!... no temper!...
Well!... where can that go?.... from there!... its perfect at this point!
your right!....... it can only go down from there!.....as none of us are perfect!
SO!... until you have went through the other two stages of love!

| Is it possible to fall in love with someone you never met? Posted: 4/16/2006 11:01:34 PM | Yes. And I did. Ended up meeting her after a year and a half of getting to know her REALLY well, and eventually got engaged to her. The relationship lasted for 7 years, too. But ended last year and I've kept single since then...too much distance and not enough open communication on various subjects that should have been done instead of avoided.
But to keep from straying off topic, yes it's very possible to fall in love with someone you never met. Just that meeting them finalizes and seals the deal. ;-)
I find email and after that instant messengers to be the best medium to really get to know someone personally and in intimate detail as all you have to go on for a long time are the words shared between you. When it gets to be 14 page emails and 2 hour+ chat sessions on a daily basis, you soon start to learn a lot about a person! lol! | |

| Is it possible to fall in love with someone you never met? Posted: 4/17/2006 2:21:02 PM | | It is definitely possible to fall in love with someone that you never physically met. You actually get to know who they are by communicating through email, IM, phone conversations, etc. I think if you can keep up the conversation even though you've never met, that's great. | |

| Is it possible to fall in love with someone you never met? Posted: 4/19/2006 4:17:57 PM | | I find it hard to love someone you really do not know.I have talk to people from a long way off before,but never really knew for sure who they are. I find that face to face over time you can get to know them .And then you can get past all the bull they try and tell you. It is easy to be someone you want to be on the phone ,but in person you can not hide who you are.plus I would want to say I love you and know who it is and most of all why I feel this way.It is so easy for some to use this word. I would rather do it by action. | |

You are right mahabeen. Many of us open up and say things in a more honest way then we would face to face. Embarrassment when talking about intimate things, as you get to know someone, is easier then to say some things face to face as opposed to a computer screen. so both parties really do get to know someone deep down much faster. I had even read some studies on the topic that back up what I just said.
True, you could be dealing with a phony cyber nut too. But using your good judgment and time, we usually can tell. It took me about 3 weeks with one woman to figure out that she was not real. But I was right. Just be careful in the early stages if you can. But most of us did not even plan to fall in love, it just happened. I mean, who would ever plan on a long distance relationship to begin with.
It happened to me and I was not even looking for any kind of relationship when it started. We did meet. The love grew even more for the both of us. Without going into it, it ended and broke my heart more then it has ever been broken. But that could happen in any relationship. True, the distance makes it harder to hold. But for three years I was deeply in love. | |

| Is it possible to fall in love with someone you never met? Posted: 4/19/2006 10:17:05 PM | ahhh it happens its called idealizing the person...... you imagination is running wild...its a great feeling, I know, but
You haven't met him....therefore, you are idealizing this guy, been there , done that
The truth will be known only once you meet him
Who's to say, it won't be love?....... best to meet him immediately
Take care | |
