Ccincy: The way things are today I'd have an awful time trusting someone in cyber world.They can appear to be a nice person online and be a real jerk when you meet them.
It's obviously a risk you take.Real life can also be very scary too.
search2014: I just wonder to find out if it is easy for you to trust someone in cyber world dating..
Look at all the people who meet in life (not on websites) who even get together for long periods of time, and then, wham-o, find out terrible things and/or are victimized by personality traits, etc...they didn't see coming. Getting to know someone in person is no guarantee or insulation against negative types, and many can conceal this crap from their partner at first, and from the world, for a lifetime. No guarantees, Bud...it can go good or bad either on the computer or off.

I was chatting to a guy on here, he seemed a really nice guy. But when we did meet...what a scarey man.
I think that most people know right away if they "click" or have a "connection" from the moment they meet or start interacting. If they don't the chances of any relationship working (whether long distance or local) is slim. When two people connect and really want something to work they can make it happen.
