"Meet" and meet and actually be together

Do you know any friends here, who meet someone here, then actually meet in person and be together?

Just want to know whether this dating site really works.

Oh I met someone here back in 2012, then met him in person November 2012 when I was on my trip to Europe then we decided to give it a try. We met again January 2013 in Vietnam (he was already made a plan to travel to Chine before we met, so we agreed to meet in the middle where I don't need visa). It went well actually and on March he visited me for my birthday. But on May we called it off for some reasons.

Actually there are 2 things I want to know; does dating site and long distance relationship works?

Have you ever met someone you meet here in person and how did it go? Mind sharing your experience?

Hi Sarasvathy,
I know of a few cases of people getting together. Yes, I think it works if you don't expect miracles. You have to be very patient.

It does work for some. There are several who married. Thing with LDRs, I think you should have more than one and take the attitude the first meeting is just that, a meeting nothing more. There have been several blogs about how horrible some first meeting were. Meet them all if you can, then pick one. Yes, slower. Much. But happier in the long view too.

LDR's are difficult mainly due to work and money restrictions. This puts a strain on the relationship by having to wait several months between visits. So long as both accept this, then an LDR can work well.

I have met several people in person, one or two just for a coffee, had a couple of very worthwhile relationships lasting around a year each and a couple of shorter term affairs.
I know a few couples who have got together as a result of CS.

Most of them are still together, living with each other, etc.

I have had a long -term CS relationship myself.

I don't believe in LDRs if you are not going to be able to meet the person at least regularly short-term, with the real prospect of living in the same place long-term.bouquet
I have a friend who met her fiance through this site. Unfortunately,what works for one doesnt work for everyone. Just stay for some time see how it works for you.thumbs up
Dear all thank you for your sharing knowledge of it. At this point I don't believe, but I'd like to believe again I do that's why I wanna hear stories.

Maybe like all relationships, be it starting from dating site or not, long distance or not, it can work, it can fail. Agree that the case with LDR is it is like a holiday, you make the best of it when you meet because you have been waiting for it.

I have been here in CS since 2011 or 2012 I don't remember exactly and have met some people, mostly (Indonesian) women though for friendship and sharing about dating site and stuff. Maybe to let it happen you first must believe it first. Maybe. Let's see.

Have a good day all.
i've met four people off this site and shared views with many more in forums is in my opinion a good site
