It has never happened to me. I'm not sure if I'm capable of that. You can't smell people over the internet, right? 😆 So there's always that question lingering in the air. You can't feel their heartbeat either. And that's how I bond.
@CrazyMusicLover Then you need to listen to who you meet, actually listen, and it starts by giving up on ideas and doubts. Doubt and love never mixed very well throughout history, and people's history with senses are also equally lacking.

Fragrance and scents, have the most direct path into your mind. But I do swear by really listening you hear the fragrance of another. You can almost taste

@thewindupbirdchronicles I actually pick on nonverbal cues a lot. Words can be deceiving.
@CrazyMusicLover And how does this relate? You are projecting your experiences, which is fair. Yet I'm guessing you don't pick up on emotions in voice, intonations, or had someone lay your beliefs aside? (They are beliefs)

Yes! It’s a wonderful connection that you can have if there is no one good enough for you to love around you! My first relationship I was willing to meet him wherever he wanted me too!

Love doesn’t always have to be physical!
@DDDMountains That's the truth
HumanEarth · 56-60, F
Never happened to me. My love was the old fashion way. Her father put a gun to my head and said your going to marry my daughter or your going meet your maker right now
HumanEarth · 56-60, F
Honesty, never dated anyone from the internet. All my dating was done the old fashion way. We either knew someone in common or meet each other as blind strangers
@HumanEarth gotta love a shotgun wedding
@BizSuitStacy I agree with that
I’ve been on both sides of the good/bad fence but even the “wastes of time” were a learning experience. As for the good, I wouldn’t trade it for the world.

@OlderSometimesWiser.. agreed 🙂

It's absolutely possible. Time and space are irrelevant. As long as there is honesty, respect and caring, there can be love.

I had a serious crush, (very nearly love), on a pen pal from the UK. We wrote online. He used to call me his "Goddess of Words". I was head over heels for a while. I was seriously considering traveling over there to meet him...and then, gradually, over the months that we wrote, I discovered some VERY disturbing and sick things about him. He admired Hitler, for one, and in his own mind, he had decided that Jesus could not be a Jew, and went to all sorts of lengths to try to prove it.

One of the worst choices I've ever made.

My former partner and I began a four-year romantic relationship after we connected on Facebook many years ago. When he took me to meet his family, it was a big thing because African men—Nigerian men especially—don't introduce you to family members unless they truly care about you. All of this is to say, while it can work, I would suggest not wasting time pursuing an online relationship if you do not intend to meet in person.
LilPrincess · 41-45, F
Happened a few times and been a complete disaster every time 😒
It's happened.
Not a waste of time, it felt wonderful and all.
Yet, I do not recommend it.
For me, it has to be in person. As wonderful as it is to connect with someone at a deep level, it is also an imbalance to have an entire relationship just with words.
@thinkingoutloud It truly does get tiring
akindheart · 61-69, F
Yes and i dont recommend it
RadiantRose · 31-35, F
I have 3 times lol 😆, and it was magical both times the third one was short lived. The first lasted 4 years in high school , the second one lasted 14 years we were still friends until we recently lost touch as he couldn't stop his addictions.
Tobasco · 31-35, F
Waste of time
CountScrofula · 41-45, M
I think it adds an additional layer of challenge to a relationship but so do a millino other things.

I met my wife online, we're celebrating 20 years together this month. But we also didn't fall in love until we met in person.
It happened
We celebrate 10 years of marriage this year
never a waste of time to give time to someone who gives you theirs. So much to enjoy in a online/long distant relationship.
Jenny1234 · 51-55, F
Has never happened to me. I can’t imagine it ever would. I’d be very worried about internet dating
Blondily · F
I met the hub the old fasioned way at a bar years ago. lol Never met anyone online who compares to him or ever will.
Alyosha · 31-35, M
It has happened to me a couple of times, but it didn't last.
AccursedAlexander3 · 31-35, M
Could happen. I’ve met it online but never fallen in love.
WillaKissing · 56-60
I look at it like the Wizzard of Oz and how real it was.
It's worked for some, but I think that's rare.
GunFinger · F
It has happened. We got married.
@GunFinger Aww how sweet
Starcrossed · 41-45, F
Its happened for me, we met in person eventually.
Wonderful waste of time

catfish..............
basilfawlty89 · 31-35, M
It has happened to me yes.
Not a waste of time.
It’s not why I go online. Friendship is possible, and I feel like I’ve made real friends. But romance involves some intangibles (for me) that aren’t available unless I’m with the person.
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
I met my last gf online, but we didn't fall in love "on the internet", it was just a dating site. People that claim to have online relationships? I don't buy it.
@uncalled4 I am starting to figure that out
