I think if you can build a trust with that person and truly believe in them that there can be feelings and given time love can be there.

^^^ I have three children... And I know I have to be careful... I might come across a little scary when I warn people that if anyone ever hurt any of my children there wouldn't be a trial, they just wouldn't find the body. Hehehehe and I wonder why I'm single mhmmmm? hahhahahhaha.LMAO

Well daisie I would have said the Madd Hatter rather than Alice...And I have had te(quila) with the Madd Hatter, Jesus, and the Stay puff Marshmellow man in Nogales at Churches chicken..and I have fallen in love with someone that I hadn't met..and it was better in person... It might be all fantasy if others aren't truthful, you fall for what/who you think they are. But it is still love in any case, a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet. It might not last forever but with 30-40% of marriages ending in divorce I'll take my chances in my cartoon land. I am a little looney after all...hehehehe

we're tiny we're tooney..we're all a little looney...lmao

Verissa these are the things great stories are made of. I am a screenwriter and a few years ago I optioned a script about this very subject. It's the story of a woman who meets a man via the telepersonals and falls in love with him over the phone. She wants to meet but he seems to be reluctant and it turns out that she begins to let her imagination run wild re: what his deal really is and why he won't set up a time and place to meet or even talk about himself. However, she becomes addicted to his voice. The script is titled: Getting Personal. I hope that when you do meet you will let us all know how it goes.

I believe it's possible to have strong feelings for a person you have never met, but 'love' no i don't think so. It's a pretty strong word to use, and you must have your emotions etc intact before you can even think about using that word. A person must really know someone inside and out and have no doubts at all if you use the word 'love', i think that if you have never met the person, there would be a lot you don't know about them, and until you do meet them you will never know everything you need to know. Infatuation definately.

knowing someone online only is an incomplete picture. Maybe..1 can love someone based on whatever limited information and communication one has received but things are easily subject to change when actually meeting the person. So..I think its a bad idea to fall in love with anyone that u have not meet in person

Hey Verissa - I thought I was the only one until I read this. I am easily put off when I chat to people, something they say or dont say! Even gave up almost but then met someone just last week. We have chatted a bit on msn, for long hours, but he has his mind on a new business venture. So the fact that I have tried to chat to him on msn and text has prompted "your a bit full on" which upset me. Have taken a step backwards but find it hard that perhaps it will just slip by. I really felt a connection and he said he liked me, I am very attracted to the picture and personality. I know exactly where you're coming from. Obviously its early days so I wouldn't be jumping from bridges if I didn't hear anything ever again! I just dont know if I can be bothered with this website searching for "the one".

I believe faith plays an important part of each of our lives so I believe you can fall in love without meeting

Only one thing to say on this one:

"In this day and age...ANYTHING is possible!"

I think that also clicks with the "Truth is starnger than fiction..." cliche...but I can't be sure...

I have to agree. It actually is possible, but its not love its infatuation and the fantasy of meeting each other. I had something with someone from Florida and we started out as friends chatting and then eventually we talked on the phone. We had exchanged pictures and at first i didnt' think he was really my type, but we got along so great and had alot in common that it didnt' bother me. But eventually the feelings grew and we wanted to meet and when we did it was love. Unfortunately it didn't last because of the distance, but we had a good thing for a couple of years. To this day he was my first true love and i have never met anyone close to making me feel the way he did.

Are you gonna eventually meet him?

Keep in mind the anonymity of the internet. A person can be or say whatever they think the other person wants to hear. It's much easier to buffalo someone on here than in real life. Don't leave yourself too vulnerable. You might not want to tell him all your thoughts or weaknesses too early in the game. You might be setting yourself up for disaster if a person-to-person meeting ever occurs. It's a minefield out there ... tread lightly.

No, it's not. You have to meet the person, talk to them and get to know them. You are otherwise dealing with fantasy.

Whoa, your treading on dangerous territory girl and I can say from experience, please be careful!! Ive been there, done that, where just to get an email from them makes your stomach do flip-flops and no matter what pic you send to them, they alwasy respond that you are the most gorgeous thing they have ever seen!! It seems like you have so many common interests that suddenly you start to think that perhaps you have finally found your soul mate, the one you were destined to be with, THE ONE..

Many, many years ago, I started out just having a friendly email buddy who we would write back and forth, chat on a weekly basis about our lives, and because it was very long distance, we always talked one day about meeting. But in the meantime, our feelings began to grow for each other and by the end of a year, were both feeling what we thought was affectionate love for each other. If either one of has had a bad day, we would be there to console each other with kind words, etc. On my birthday he sent me roses, we sent presents back and forth, that kinda thing. We were convinced that we HAD to meet!

Finally one day, I said, thats it, Im flying out to meet him (with my sister of course) and what a SHOCK... .it turned out that all the pics I had seen of him were easily TEN years old, I could only see faint traces of the man I thought I had a big love for.. But even that didnt bother me, what did was the second I saw him, i was disappointed beyond belief, there was NO SPARK, (I think for either of us!) and I sat there shocked that this is the guy I had chatted to, emailed for years. Little things you dont think of when your chatting that you dont think to ask, things like, "Hey, do you brush your teeth? wash? Deodorant? You dont think they may have disgusting habits like constantly spitting or scratching, etc!!

After that visit, we still remained friends but it was NEVER the same and eventually our emails and chatts fizzled out completely. I guess I had been in love with the imaginary love I thought he was in my mind. When you have the rose coloured glasses on, the world seems much different!!

My only advice to you is that if you think it could be love, its best to meet the guy soon, dont waste years thinking "someday Ill meet him" and perhaps overlook soome good looking dude right in front of you cause your thinking about your on-line love.

I hope it works out for you far better than my case!

Hugs

Yes it is possible,but one thing you have to remember is that even though the potential for this incredibly awesome love story may be there,there may come a time where something happens to screw it up.I fell in love with a woman 5 years ago and after she was there for me during some of the roughest times in my life and she was more than a friend,when my exfiancee showed back up in my life ,I screwed it up by sleeping with her.So was I really in love?Or was immediate satisfaction too much?Because I still held feelings for my ex,I failed to uphold my end of the bargain.I think the fact she wasn't here or vice versa put a certain strain on the relationship,and after my infidelity,we just could'nt pick it back up.I still talk to her,I still want to meet her and we still "love" each other,but there's just this level of intimacy and trust thats been destroyed.This all happened after 2 years of being in love and all the long nights talking on the phone,ect.Just do yourself a favor and meet him AT ALL COSTS!! Nothing is more important than having the love story be true.And it has to happen soon or you will come to always ask yourself "what if?"

I was very interested in hearing about you and your new friend that you plan to meet in 14 days. This is my first time dating on the internet and I have found the most wonderful guy. even though he lives thousands of miles away from me we get on really well and have a lot in common.

I was very down hearted when I read your replies about whether it is possible to fall in love with some one you never met. The impression I got was that most assume its not going to work out and think we are losers for even thinking that.

I hope you have a wonderful meeting and that everything works out for you. Would really love to hear how you get on.

Thought things were going great with my on line fella and now I have doubts because of all the negative replies you had , like , is that his real photo or of someone else? its really got me thinking and put me on a bit of a downer.

would love to hear your thoughts on this.

Good Luck.

Blodyn.

If it wasn't possible to fall in love with someone you never met, how could you love God?
