If the answer is No, then How Could you Love God, without seeing Him?
Just thought this was a Good discussion, As it is an unanswered Question at the moment, Just wanted to hear others who may have experienced this! OR NOT? Please have respect! And maybe we can all learn something
You can fall in love before meeting. The question is who are you falling in love with?
The problem with falling in love before meeting is that you end up falling in love with the person you think they are or want them to be, not with the person that they really are.
I believe we can. A certain kind of love can be achieved before actually meeting. I believe once you meet, the love will either deepen, grow and flourish or could actually fizzle.
There's many different kinds of love. Love for your siblings, your parents, your friends, your pet, and your partner. All in different intensities and to different degrees.

All things are most likely possible, so there would be things about everyone to love. There are aspects of their character to love, such as their humour, or stoicism, honesty, earnestness, tenacity etc.
Meeting someone can happen in many way too. When people talk, or use webcams, theya re communicating just as they would in RL, just at a distance of miles/kilometers.
When people type, it is no idfferent to when people wrote letters years ago and grew to love things about each other.
I am going to leave God out of this because most people relationship with their God is one of subservience and pleading rather than the two way street of love. To explain it better I will ask the question, "what do you do for God?" (that is not motivated by self interest).
I am not New to Love, as I Am 48 yrs old, was married for 17 yrs, and togather for 22 yrs, I also spent alot of time studying Love and the didderent Types of Love, I even did a thread on the different types of Love consist Of Eros, Phileo, Agape , and on other that doesnt come to mind, so I am No Teenage kid asking this Question, I am a Mature Adult wit 2 grown Children
cameraman: Sure, I can fall in love with someone without meeting them, even God. All they need to be is truthful and honest in their profile and in the Bible.

I think you can become deeply INFATUATED by a person's better qualities when there is distance but real life is a different matter, when you really get to Meet the REAL PERSON, sometimes they are the same as online, sometimes totally different. I think the TRUE LOVE part comes when you actually get to spend some time together without a computer screen between you. JMO.

Job 31:15 -- Did not He who made me in the womb make them? Did not the same One fashion us in the womb?
Job 33:4 -- The Spirit of God has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives me life.
Psalms 139:13 -- For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother's womb.
Psalms 139:16 -- Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as yet there were none of them.

I think you can fall in love before meeting someone. But the deep, lasting , forever love comes with time together.
