I was just going to say no, but then I remembered CharlieZ and Soosie. And a famous EP love affair of long standing was and is Nimbus and Abbeyrhode. It is the people who have actually found it here whom I would ask, were I you.
I once had a crush on an online friend. He lived in the UK. We corresponded for over a year, and suddenly he began to reveal his true self. He thought Hitler was a great man and a hero, and thought that Jesus could not possibly be a Jew.
Did I know all of that when I was head over heels with admiration for him and my special brand of puppy love? No. And it's even worse, sometimes, when you meet people in RL. People hide their true selves when they only communicate online, and it is impossible for real love to flourish when the truth is hidden.
