when you are officially staedy with someone? Not that I am trying to go steady with anyone, just wondering how anyone hooks up here? Do you say, hey you wanna be mine? I mean really how? Sounds dumb to ask but I was just curious,lol. I just don't see how it happens?....

Not a dumb question at all.
Each person has different views, but I feel that the longer you communicate online, the more you realize how much you like the person and feelings start to show. Once the communication is out of CS...all there is to it is be real, say what you feel to the other person, the two might have been feeling the same way for a long time, communication is the answer.
Well I think you just know when things progress to something more serious. If you spend more time together than anything you would assume it means something right? I know that good communication also is one key. You would probably talk about it together about where you stand.
Communication is key, just as the other two stated. There will come a point where you both need to talk and decide to say.."hey, lets be exclusive and see where this goes" i do believe that online or off that final choice does need to be made clear...probably even more so online because of lack of that actual physical together time that comes along with the distance most of us face with the people we meet here. Maybe im just old fashioned in a lot of ways. I kinda want that special man to say it out loud that he wants me and only me and asks me to be his sweetheart LOL
Maybe it is me, but I think one can never really up hook up like this. It would be too hard to adjust to such an idea, but for some it works, guess I could be wrong, who knows,lol.
usually them cooking your breakfast makes it official....
but never assume...she could be cooking it for her children
seriously, I've only met one...and thats as far as its going...
I agree with how can it happen without contact..... the typed word and just a voice... and WHAM BAM in love....nope, cannot comprehend such an event occuring.

It more than just type words and a voice, it is the meeting of the minds and not of the bodies. When you seek the inner person in someone, you fall inlove with their qualities, looks in my views comes secondary to that. Love is a feeling that can not be seen, but a persons vharacter speaks volumes, physical beauty is a capsule, it can not reflect who we are. Love can happen anywhere, online, through distance and more, it should not matter to others how two people have found it, what is imporatant is how they value it.
A person's ability to post words is vast, from cut n paste, to copy, to plagerism, to those who with their heart and mind scribe teh words we read. Most give credit where credit is due, others (these are dangerous types), claim authorship of other persons words and sentiments. Without the person ever being in your presence (not biblically), I personally find trusting typed words on a flat screen,despite teh authenticity of author of those words enuff to induce me to proclaim love. I can rally behind an opinion, laugh at a good joke, share with anyone and be compassionate toward anyone in this format....Still I wonder, who here would be as open in reality or the streets How many communicate via this forum while misrepresenting themselves and do not share this fact. would yuo spend this amount time talking to this indiviudual if you knew.. (Trojan horse). As much as I envy those who trust and believe all they read here... the possibility of rejection/hurt/and many other nasty things reality forces us to contend when building our relationships are not present.... skeptical.. yeah I'm that. Naive?? No not in a long time, Am I envious? damn straight I am...
"capture their minds and the rest of the body will follow...." this is a recipe for many things, good ,bad, and evil.. Can a hungry heart distingquish between good love and bad. can it refuse.. Can a lonely person not answer a knock upon a door or ringing of a phone, Can not kind words and gestures overwhelm one starved for attention? Have you ever watched someone get emotionally destroyed by kind acts/ and words ??? It is the worst kind of destruction a freind can observe... yeah I'm skeptical and envious, its a package deal that comes with experience. just an opinion no harm or hurt intended
