online relationships

I am all for meeting someone online, most of the time they are who they say they are. Thee are few that lie about their appearance, or whatever. But for the most part I have found the guys to be honest & upfront with what they want or are looking for. Right now I am with a couple of online dating sites to try & find a decent man. Hopefully I won't have to look for too long...lol...Lori

Personally, I prefer meeting somebody in person. You get so much more that way. The net is always what somebody can make it a person to person is more what the person is.
No doubt there are successes but those don't have to be you and relationships have so little value these days.
Better to do it in person.

I don't think that an online relationship will work for me for the simple fact that i am a very clingy person and a jealous type so i would be able to go without seeing the guy that i was talkng too. I would have to see them

Now for other people i don't know it depends on how strong both people are, if they can go long periods of time without seeing that person and if they have really good trusting skill which most people don't. You most have great communitcation skills to be able to open up to that person. Where is the relationship going to lead..

Well i am about to celebrate my one year aniversary with my hubby and we met online. Although we have only been married one year we have been together for three years. I am so happy I found him online. So I would say yes it can work but you do have to be careful. And well I met a few people online before I found one that I could love.

I met my gf on online thing. Until now it still us and I love her more each day! Basically we started hello and hi and started missing her, then I start feeling something and I courted her for a mo. and answered me. The communication did not stop and I decided to see her. I work in the province and she's in Manila so I decided to go to Manila really excited to see her in person and be with her. First she was telling me when I was courting her online oh common your joking your pulling my neck. So I proven myself to her that I really mean good intention.Well you feel it when the person really mean well, their are always exemption to the rule. Not all people doing online are bad guys. Anyway have a nice Day! God bless!

Personally i can't also believe that it happens to me, i am on my way as i'm already engage with someone miles away. At first i was really skeptical because i don't believe that relationship that started on the internet is impossible and wouldn't work but to my surprise and never thought that i will be meeting the person that i will be with the rest of my life and that's when i'm really thankful that i give it a try and give myself a chance to love again. Like other say, We will never know if we didn't try. Now i am very happy and very excited to start new life and build family with him. What i could only say is that when it comes to online relationship just make sure that you will get to know the person, don't trust easily and be cautious. You will know yourself if the person is the one for you and that it is true because you will just feel it but of course it always important that you have to be cautious until you really meet him/her personally. That's also the time you can really tell that both of your feelings are true or not because it is really different from online and personal meeting.

Spending a lot of time on my computer, I have talked to a lot of different people from different countries. Sometimes, we remain friends and on those other occassions, it turns out to become something more. I never imagined myself to spend the rest of my life with someone who I haven't seen or been with personally. So, I take it one step at a time and meet up with them.

On our meet ups, I'm glad that the people I end up talking to are actually who they say they are and non of those fakers and posers. We hit it off well as much as we hit it off in chat, although there are some others that I can never get along with in person. The thing is, I think for a long term relationship to work, both parties should want it as much as the other. It doesn't matter if they met online or at a coffeeshop, it's all about companionship and how you're willing to take in the best and worst of someone.

I have found some really nice person on the internet, but I must admit they are kind of rare. Most people I met on the net have extra "purposes". I've never really meet anyone I've met online for real, since the nice person on the net I found were mostly out of the country. There are some come from the same city as I do, but I've never really had the courage to actually meet them. A friend of mine from college met her husband on the internet, her husband was from a European country, I forgot where, he came all the way here to meet her and after a long relationship, they got married. That's the closest online relationship example I've got.

i dont beleave in such thing:)) theats funny how can they kiss??

It is possible and it is at least a way to find someone that later you will meet in person. Keep an only on line relation is not enugh. I, we were introduced to a common friend but living in different countries only thanks to good and cheap communicatian and low fares airlines we could see each other often and it worked out, having been about 3 years married and we have a child too. There are many people looking for an honest relation through the internet, like there are some who are just lying and only looking for something not serious, but even those normaly don't cheat you much and easily let you understand that the only thing they want is your body so that everybody knows what to expect.
