Is it possible to fall in love with a person you've never met in person?

Absolutely. It's even possible to fall in love with someone you haven't even spoken to - only written back and forth.

The problem with how the Internet has made this so easy is that you can fall in love with people that you never would have spent ten minutes with if you'd met them in real life.

@ShoesOfWandering: so what happens when you do meet? Lol
@AnnaM: I eventually spent a day with the person and it was very pleasant. But I don't think I could have handled a long-term, exclusive, face-to-face relationship with them for very long.

@ShoesOfWandering: scary
@AnnaM: Why is it scary? She was a perfectly reasonable person, just not someone I would have hooked up with if I'd met her the first time in person.

Especially if you've been talking to this person for a while
