Internet dating/Having a crush on people you talk to online

When the two individuals can not meet in the end, it comes to an end.

I could never be in an online relationship where you don't see eachother at all, that would be far too hard for me. Maybe it's ok for a couple of months but then you need to snap back to reality.

I am currently in a relationship with someone I met online and it works perfectly fine. Maybe I don't get to see them as much as I like and I miss them when I don't get to see them for a couple of weeks but it is better than not being able to see them at all. I never came online thinking that I would meet someone, I have never ever thought it'd be possible for me to meet someone online, but I did. Just because someone lives miles away doesn't mean it won't work, if you feel strongly about them and they feel strongly about you then why shouldn't it?

Can't imagine myself having an online relationship, i'm just too used to the regular real life ones. However i know a few people who do have online relationships and it works for them from what i see. I think that it can potentially work but really in the long term is going to be harder than real life ones/starting from a real life relationship.

To each there own i guess,

Oh that made me lol and sorry Dave but your edit made it a little funnier

Anyway for some people these type of relationships work, for others it doesn't. I've often heard stories of couples getting together and even marrying after first meeting on things like facebook, flickr and many forums.

I'm in one (call me sad or whatever) and I've known him for two years and planning on meeting him when I'm in college / year11. Some people think it's sad but i really don't give one. If you want it to work it will, if you don't well it could go either way...

isn't that like 3 years away...

good luck..xxxx

I don't think there's anything wrong - it works for some people and not others. I have met some of my best friends online, and sort of been in an online relationship in the past, because I don't really mind not seeing someone for ages - for me, talking to someone is a hundred times better than seeing them! In the end though, I don't think a properly serious relationship can ever develop unless you see each other eventually, or it could all just be one big hoax... :/

It works for like 1 in 100 people lol.

To be honest people need to snap out of the mindset that when they meet someone with similar hobbies, interests and that they can talk to a lot that they'd are soul mates or something. No, they're not. If that was the case it would be statistically impossible for couples to be together. I look at internet dating as kind of sad, I know some people enjoy it but I honestly couldnt go in a relationship without seeing someone 1-2 days a week at the least. I know some people who have long-distance relationships and see each other every 2-3 months but I wouldnt put myself through that, it's holding yourself back really.
