Hi cast I don't blame you I wouldn't either.
That's similar to what I was getting to in my post.
You can get to know someone for sure, but until you take the steps to take any relationship into reality, that is where the true relationship has the chance to blossom and grow.
I know many couples who have met via the internet ... so it indeed can happen. I think one's viewpoint and perspective is important - if you don't believe - it will never happen. If you are open to the possibilities - there is an opportunity.
I'm a believer

how about my face and your face meeting
Absolutely. I have and met a few people in person. There was no chemistry with a few but certainly were with one or two. My current friend we met through the internet. I always talk on video and have lots of video conversations. That way, it is in real time.
Why not? If he really came to me last year. He is French and live in France. and I am Indonesian who live in Jakarta.
He is good men, cool, intelligent, hard worker, responsible and respect to everyone.

You can't fall in love with a person you've never met. You can meet interesting and nice people on the internet, meet them and then fall in love with them. But falling through a computer screen straight into 7th heaven and happily ever after? Nope!

Is it all worth it?
Is it all worth it?
Short answer is, Yes, certainly. Long answer is more complicated. Long answer is, your question should have stopped before the words "on the internet." If someone doesn't believe they can fall in love on the internet, they won't. If they don't believe they can fall in love next Tuesday, they won't. If they don't believe they can fall in love...they won't.
And: Is it worth it? Mais oui, certainement.
You could either see each other's "naked" selves so to speak.. to know their character/personality in real-life, without the restrictions and limitions of the net, or set up a potential failure based on filling in the gaps.
If the net is used correctly though, such as having a clear idea of who you are and who you're looking for, seemingly, your odds of success ought to be increased (except for knowing how the chemistry will go).
Falling in love with words is a mistake. Skype doesn't tell you enough either apparently. Telephone calls perhaps only disguise some annoying/off-putting behaviour of theirs in person.

I think you think youre in love but really youre not. Ive been there, I thought I was totally in love with a man I met on fb, We got together 6 months after we spoke. I realized that the person I imagined him to be and who he really was were two differant things. People dont show you 100 percent of who they really are online. You get to know only the good part of them. So I have a rule now. One month of internet and phone is long enough and then I have to meet them. and also not to let myself get so caught up in it every again.
I wish you all luck, :)

Well, statistics have you guys all wrong-the naysayers anyway---three out of five people meet on the net...Vulpine and NEssa will meet, and love forever,in my opinion....I have my hopes high and distance is not a factor nowadays---we do have jet...helllo....open your heart and yo8ur mind.....money is only a thing...love is something....
Vulpine: Sorry that last post was meant specifically for the benefit of "MrLuurv78". Hope it's of use to you.
Incidentally I really don't like the quote/not quote system here. Far too often this kind of thing happens. If you want to quote....you should only be asked ONCE....not a second time.
Anyway...can't look a gift horse in the mouth eh?! It's a *free* site an all!!

Newlife08: Best of luck to the two of you, but I hope you prepare yourself just the smallest chance that it might not work for one reason or another??
Sorry to abbreviate your post, Newlife, but I wanted to make just this point about your conclusion: isn't that the same, no matter where or how you meet someone? You hope it'll work out, but in truth, it doesn't always? Could be so if they lived next door or lived on Mars.
Getting involved with anyone, anywhere, anyhow, it's always a gamble, isn't it? We never know if it's gonna work out in the long run.
But I think, we should still place bets anyway. Ya can't win if ya don't play.
Whoa. Whoa. Ccincy, with all the respect I have for you, this is untoward.
And falling in love with someone you just met is not?
When is it different?
Ok, I've only scanned the whole thread, but I didn't see any mention of "months" nor of repeated no-shows.
And same could be true if you met in person...yes?
Or if you met them IRL, could be an axe murderer, could be a sociopath, could be a Republican...list goes on, doesn't it? Let's not get paranoid about where and how we meet anyone.
Agree there.
Ccincy: Falling in love with someone you've never met is basing a relationship on superficial experiences.
And falling in love with someone you just met is not?
Ccincy: You know nothing about the person other than what he/she tells you.
When is it different?
Ccincy: You've been chatting on the internet for the last few months and have agreed to meet many times but he/she never shows.

Ccincy: The phone number and address he/she has given you may belong to someone else.He/she could be married.
And same could be true if you met in person...yes?
Ccincy: Could be a woman playing a dirty joke.As in not being who they say they are.

Ccincy: Some red flags should be going up.

With God anything is possible. Good luck 2 all you guys.......You can open an account dreaming about your perfect one . Different profiles with different stories , pictures (some of them are fake anyway ....) and then you say: I like that one!! He/she is for me , the matching one. And you start a nice love story , dreaming about the time when you will be together.
But surprise...you don't know who really is that person. Is she/married ?! Do have his/her personal life and here is playing around?
If you ask me I would simply say: without meeting face to face and spend some time together don't believe a word! Because on internet all stories are lovely and sweet but in reality the truth is much more different.

It is often the case that when you meet someone you've been conversing with by any means such as online or in letters they can be totally different in person. It's happened to me and to people I know. I believe one can truly admire a person for who they are but I think to truly fall in love two people have to meet face to face. That is just my opinion of course.
ru4eva: I hope so mate, I would hate to think I'm wasting my time on here...
i fell in love with a man ..we met on site last March and been going strong until early December...he broke my heart
No, you can get chatting to a person you grow to like and want to get to know them better. But to fall in love you have to spend time on person with someone. There is an expression that to get to know someone you have to live with them, well thats true, to think you are in love with a person you havent actually met is IMO immature and not based on reality.
so far internet is only an helping platform to make in touch people all over the world...
all depends i how much both are honest with themselves and the one other is talking to u....
in the end...
count we are just HUMAN!!!!
capable on make many HUGE mistakes!

Yes, all the time.
Aren't the people in internet human beings ? So,it can happen sometimes.
