Please stay away from my posts as it seems you like to dis-agree with everything i have to say.
Also if you think Internet relationships can't work, well.. your wrong. There have been people i know that have been together for a very long time now from the net and still are going perfectly fine.
I suppose they can work, but only rarely IMO. I would certainly rather meet people in real life than on the internet as well!
I don't indulge in disagreeing with EVERYTHING you say. What you said just does not make sense. Your way of phrasing your words is wrong.Quote:

How is it wrong? If it's actual happening & true, it's pretty easy for it not.. to be wrong. What your saying is, 2 people have been together for years now, from the net, yet according to you that relationship is not working. I believe it is working, so again, i don't understand how you can say i'm wrong.
Internet relationships cannot work if there's no effort and dedication.
If there's only 2 people who have been together for years now and haven't been seeing each other regularly, I don't see how it can work. They only know each other on Internet. It's more towards an Internet relationship which cannot work. They have to see each other first and get to know each other in real life.
But i didn't say they don't see each other regularly. They're like, 19-20 years old, if they have been together for that long, i'm pretty sure it's working. Meaning internet relationships "can" actually work.
I think the disagreement here is determining the definition of 'internet relationship'. Once they've met up, it's more of a regualr relationship, whereas what I think GirlNextDoor15 is saying is that an internet relationship is purely on the internet, over msn, webcam etc.Quote:

The first version is just a 21st century version of how to meet a partner - obviously with technological advances, more people are going to meet people online, rather than go down to the YMCA or something, because things like that don't really happen anymore, people just sit on their computers all day.
It's opportunistic. If you don't leave your computer, you're not going to meet anyone other than who you talk to online, and that obviously means you don't have a problem with this. I do think that at least until you've met up, it can't be classed as a real relationship, more 'e-dating' (which can be an offensive term in some cases) just as I think until you've met an internet friend in real life, they're not proper friends (although they can be real friends, people you trust, but it is easier to type your problems to someone you've never met of course).
