LOSERSSS

online relationships can work but because of distance, it can be difficult to maintain.
half the time, it's just a fluke or something.
but sometimes, people do meet up and persue a relationship in person.
it depends.
sometimes they're right, sometimes they're wrong, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.

I don't think relationships like that would work. I personally like it when the girl is actually there for me and we are interacting. I suppose it would work if like she had to go away on business or i had to and we would reunite again. See what im saying? :]

Online relationships are a good way to meet a nice person.
Most times when you first see someone you automaticlly create an opinion of them (most times not even having to say ne thing to them).
You meet a person just by talking most of the time and you get to know what they are like on the inside.

I have had one major relationship over the net and we only broke up due to me moving to the UK.
I met her on habbo lol and she was like 'asl?' (as you did when u were yunger ) and i sed my age and everything and she was like oh you live in Canada too then i found i lived in the same city as her just 7 miles apart.
So we went out on habbo which now i look back seem childish but was good i added her on msn and we had known each other bout 5 weeks when we decided to meet, just so you know i had already seen pics of her on msn and she was hot. I was so worried she wouldn't like me in person but when i did meet her it was grat and we got on so well. I dated her for about 6 months then had to move to the UK (yay:rolleyes. Still talk to her but long distance dont work . so over all i would say that the online relationship worked for me i was just lucky we could meet

It's wrong, I could be a 50 year old peado over the net pretending I'm a mear teenager.

yes, but what about hippy and jay. Jay was habbo staff and hippy was richest on the game. Now they are married with kids ? Just luck ?

[WarezKid]

Did that even happen?

I don't think there's anything wrong with online relationships as long as both parties are adults and they both understand that people on the web may not always be who they seem, and for that reason they take it slowly and when and if they choose to meet up they do so in a public place. In fact in some ways the internet could be a v ery good place to meet people because there is none of the pressure associated with other forms of dating and if you meet up yuo at least know something about the person before.

Admittedly there are risks and of course for some people it's better to meet people face to face so I hope that internet relationships never overtake real ones, but for some people it can be the perfect way to meet people because the internet is so huge that you have the opportunity to meet people with similar interests and hobbies to yourself that you would never normally find through everday living.

In my opinion an online relationship is too risky. You can never trust anyone online, as the photos they give can be someone else. You never know, and never will know inless you meet them in R/L, by that time you could be too late. It could be some creepy guy that rapes you.

That would only happen to someone who is stupid. What about:

- Webcams
- Skype
- Mobile calls

You can learn alot from webcams and Skype.

I think online relationships are right, and i've been in many, but they only work if you are willing to meet the person (eventually) in real life.
