Posted: 3/21/2005 11:24:12 PM | Yes. you can fall in love online... but it will only stand a chance to work if both parties live in the same state. My country is soooo tiny and one of my friend actually married this guy she met online. They have now been happily married for 3 years and are trying for a child. God bless. :)
However, if he/she is on the other side of the globe. If you've chat with the person everyday without fail for a period of time... and you guys fix dates and meet via the webcam... eat, drink, talk and laugh together by the cam... sorta like "Long Distance Relationship" except... You've never actually met! Yes... you will fall in love... but will it last? Unlikely... Because we're human... you've never met... What's the fun of having a lover but not knowing how his skin feels like to touch or how his hair smells like?
Sure... everything's all rosey in the beginning... but after a while... things just get stale. You'll feel miserable when you see your peers getting picked up after work by their boyfriends while you have to rush home because you promised to be by the PC at HIS 9am only to end up waiting for hours or got completely stood up because he's 12 hours behind you, its morning over there and he slept in... yada yada yada...
Don't waste time... do some real dating... | |

Posted: 4/10/2005 1:48:47 AM | I feel it is very possible to find love on the internet. However, You can have very different feelings when you meet the person face to face.
My advice to anyone who thinks they may be falling inlove over the internet is....
Meet with that person, and have a face to face conversation with them. That is the only true way of knowing if your love is real.
Try to prepare yourself for the worst, without bringing tons of doubt into things. If you go into any relationship thinking things won't work, then they won't.
I think of the internet as a different way of meeting very interesting people. It is no different than meeting a stranger in a bar, or in a coffee shop.
I may have found love on line (This site actually) But, I am not getting my hopes up for a "Happy Ever After" till I actually meet him face to face. Who knows.... things may be different in person than they were online.
Just try to keep a level head in these matters.
Good luck to you all!
Ciao | |

Posted: 4/10/2005 10:39:12 AM | | Candid I don't want to be the one to burst your bubble but the chances of finding true and lasting love on line is next to nilch. Unless you already know this person and have had the time to really get to know them and they you the odds of meeting your dream man here is almost absurd. Be serious dear, this is a fantasy land. Anyone can be whoever they want to be on line. Pictures and profiles can be doctored to portray whatever image a person wants to attract the type of he or she they are in search of. Reality...kids, bills, careers and the everyday grind is what our lives pretty much consist of. Finding that person that knows all of these things about you and accepts them and you takes a lot more than a picture and a profile on this site. This is , however, a good outlet for conversation....good luck to you | |

Posted: 4/14/2005 4:23:14 AM | well,, greetings to all,
the word "love", to who can one define,, we as human beings grow morally, individually & also we do all of us have a need to be "loved", as in the animal kingdom we see the signs,, the partnership of all creatures,, for example take a thought about love birds,, now when one dies,, the partner soon afterwards dies also, now then as for humans we have a free-will approach,, the choice to either go and meet or to withdraw back behind the keyboard,, my point is people are to comfortable to stay where they are and "love" is expected within the neighborhood of ones dwelling,,
i believe the word "love", between man-woman, or what ever human form or ideal in fact exists, that if one knows within him/herself that this is maybe the one,, go and seek,, he goes to her or she goes to him,, this is the only way,, also proper phone calls etc,, i know you all understand,, but one must clearly state if the picket fence outlook is what is wanted and the discomfort of those who seem to differ,,
but as we all know the internet in places are abused and corrupt,, if the light is seen make sure its the light and not some bright torch in your face..
then MAYBE LOVE WILL PROSPER... | |

Posted: 4/14/2005 5:15:05 AM | OK
A few months ago I would have said NO
BUT
I think it does happen in a way, you connect totally and that person owns a part of your heart...I recently felt that and being the fool that I can be, lost that person...what a gut wrenching feeling that was, and took me totally by surprise how much it hit me....so YES it is possible | |

Posted: 4/14/2005 2:06:06 PM | | NO!. It's possible to fall in infatuation with someone...then when you meet, if things progress and continue, you could say you are falling in love. It's impossible to fall in love without a physical attraction. IN fact some people get so convinced they are in love, and then when they meet and aren't as attracted as they thought, it causes a lot of dissonance and problems. | |

Posted: 4/14/2005 2:13:08 PM | | Exactly....infatuation or lust...not love. If you think that's love your just fooling yourself. I feel victim to that...never again. | |

Posted: 4/14/2005 7:59:56 PM | Well, I haven't yet. I've gotton several contacts I talk to. I say a person has a better chance of doing it over the internet then if they were not on at all. Ya neverknow, " Lighting could strike". I don't believe the internet has anything to do with it. The more you meet people the better the chance of meeting the right person. I think the internet is a great way of finding who you you can learn to put with!! No really I think it's great. People can learn to be themselves right from the beginning. But a person who lies about themselves, is hurting no one but themselves. Have a great day. You get out of it what you put in.

Posted: 4/14/2005 8:15:36 PM | It is pssible. It happend to me. I have been in love before, on and off line. I have been hurt so bad. I have been alone so long. I am sick of caring for people so much, but it is in my nature. I cant help but be compationate and loving. I feel so weak, and so drained. I am done with all of this.
I don't want this life anymore. | |

Posted: 4/16/2005 1:12:21 AM | ironman1, I just wanted to point out to you that I was in no way implying I was head over heals with this guy. I said "I may have found love on line (This site actually) But, I am not getting my hopes up for a "Happy Ever After" till I actually meet him face to face. Who knows.... things may be different in person than they were online."
Thank you for your input though. I honestly feel it is different for everyone, and for you to find love online, you have to be open to the possibility.

Posted: 4/16/2005 3:22:34 AM | At times, it can sure feel like you're in love with someone you've from the internet. I think after going through what I did that you need to actually meet the person before declaring that you're 'in love' with them, because 9/10 the person isn't going to be what you think in one form or another.
I was seriously involved with one I met on Yahoo Personals a few years ago, and he seemed funny and flat wonderful. Until, that is, he moved in with me, and I found he had been lying about his beliefs, morals, and basically everything he was. I wish I had met him sooner and found this all out much faster, so that I wouldn't have been as attached when it all was over.
Is it impossible? Nah. But until you meet the person in real life, I don't think there's any way to know for sure if what your feeling is real. Caring, yes... that can happen over the net, telephone wires, letters, etc... but actually IN LOVE ... I think you have to meet them. | |

Posted: 4/16/2005 3:30:00 AM | | Yeah it is you just gotta be careful you dont get tricked i guess its a little harder to because you dont know them or i should say may have never seen them but it works. Just dont meet face to face straight away talk to them heaps to find out of there hiding anything k...Good luck sweetie. DJ Cosmo | |

Posted: 4/16/2005 6:12:59 AM | Of COURSE it's not possible. Any feelings that a person might develop for someone they have never MET can only be construed as INFATUATION (as someone else already stated). Can a person can fall in LUST with someone online? Definitely. Any feelings which arise from someone building up the image and persona of what someone is like, from looking at his or her picture, and reading emails, are most certainly not 'love'. And anyone who thinks that it is, has serious psychological problems, and really needs to seek help.
In order to truly love someone, you have to know them in a variety of different ways. How can you do that from 500 miles away, through a computer screen? | |

yes, l know a friend of mine who is now married to a girl he found on the net, so l am also trying my lucky star
I know of 3 ladies who have met and married the men of their dreams on line. They have all been happily inlove for a few years now. It can happen, you just have to be fussy. | |

Posted: 4/16/2005 6:07:46 PM | | No falling here please... if you walk you won't trip and fall. And there will be no love at first sight. a picture only tells 1000 words that don't change. (poetry should be in motion and science should always blind) | |
