Is it possible to fall in love with someone you have never met in person. Some times I think that we are all looking so hard for that other half that would make us whole that we tend to just let our common sense go out the door. The lonely, the eccentric, the old, the introvert, the sick, the dying. All want that last bit of feeling that makes us human. Needing a significant other. Some willing to go to various lengths to secure that love. Some taking advantage of love given. Some lose their sense of humanity all together because of past relationships. Hiding and keeping the world at a distance. Know qutite a few that have fallen in love over the net. Some did not. But where is the romance of it all.
really think if it was worth the effort. maybe i would but i would really have to get to know that someone really well before i would up sticks and move abroad for anyone.
I would imagine that it could be very good to start a relationship over some distance. It would force a couple to spend more time and effort to explore the mind. But there comes a time when exploring the body is needed to complete the building of a relationship and "close proximity" is the catch phrase

Yeah its kind of hard raising my girl when im in australia and the other half is in Canada.......... been travelling back and forth for 4.5 years now, im pretty tired
i agree with you, getting to know someone over the Internet is one thing, but falling in love is a big step for anyone especially if you haven't even met them yet, to me you have to go one step at a time, talk, meet, & then decide. if you want to move & then who will be the one that does. there are no easy answers to a long distance relationship its not that it can't work, but its not for everybody
Frankly, it's not that bad... with Big But... you got to understand women to stand the living with them in here.. so it's kinda complicated thing without noticing it because people in here are used to this thing... for me and personally I don't like faking things wanna deal with it as it goes...
Well, for me, if they live in the same state as me and visit my town sometimes then it will work. But if they have never been here and live way, way over somewhere else then it doesn't work. I've tried this before (with someone in Texas) and it just didn't work. If you live less than 4 hours from me, I'm very interested.

the thing is there are couples who live in the same city that dont last more than a month and couples who are together for years but are in a long distance relationship
If you can visualise it, you can make it happen. This is true of anything.
If you can't see yourself in this situation, that is your main barrier to it ever happening.
Been there, done that.
It wasn't the distance. It was the lack of shared commitment. LDR's require a great deal of trust, and musician's have a stigma that prejudices most women...
