Well, I wouldn't brave enough to marry someone I had never met. I think it is okay to meet people over the internet, as that is how I met my husband. But we didn't get married until we had known each other for two years & seen each a lot.
The trouble with meeting people whop live abroad over the internet, is that it is difficult to meet the first.
You must try & meet a person first, & see them for awhile, before marrying them.

well,you say that you met a person from internet and got married to him.if you respect it as a first step,you have already married to a foreign you had never met.i think daring to do something like you do is not a correct one when we think your relationship with your housband.maybe you are happy,but it is related to your luck.everyone cannot have the chance finding the right person from the internet.

I think you may have misunderstood me. Yes, I met my husband over the internet, but we bith lived in Adelaide. We only lived 15 minutes apart from each other. So we were able to meet a lot during the two years before we married.
This is probably different from meeting someone over the net, that lives a long way from you, that is hard to meet.

Vladilyich.
Do you think parents pay closer attention in diferent cultures, or are parents the same, the world over? I've told you about my parents. I love them, but there's no way I'd let those two choose a mate for me, but I do love them. But then again, this is North America....
You raise an interesting point.

Both of the choice, either parents desicion or internet partner, seem a little bit weird. I think, people must have chance to choose their life partners. But the way must not be internet, i think.
It is better to love someone, share sometihng and marry at the end, right?

I am in love with a man I met on the internet. We have gotten to know eachother quite well over the years, and our meeting only confirmed what we already knew about eachother. Just because people haven't spent a lot of time in eachother's physical presence does not mean they are strangers. I have a couple of relatives whom I have known all of my life who are still strangers to me, because we really don't get along well enough to know eachother.
To me "marrying a stranger" means an arranged marriage where you have only met that person on the day of your wedding. Take the time to get to know how that person thinks and feels, get to know their personality, and you are not marrying a stranger, even if you have not yet met face to face.

You may be right, but if you don't have a chance to meet face to face, He may lie about himself. You may spend too much time in internet to know him closely, but it may not be enough.
I think, the best way is to fall in love and to share everything. And then marrying.

I think that is a gamble. If i have a choice i would not marry this person. You really can't tell what this person can do to you. Is he harmful or not. Better be safe than sorry.Chinese usually do this. they let their child marry someone when their right age come.Usually they make their son or daughter marry a chinese too of their friends or close relation.I have nothing against it. I thin it is their culture and we must respect itGoodluck!

You are quite right to say it is a gamble.
I am not so brave to marry a stranger like most of the people

I think that each person has to make his or her own decision, but I personally do not think that it is a safe thing to do. I have met people from online and have friends I have met online, but marrying from abroad would be scary to me unless you have had meetings beforehand and know something about the person and what they are about. If it is a stranger, I would say NO with all the stange and dangerous things that go on in the world today.

I don't think that anyone can understand if he/she is the best one to marry via internet.
Everybody lies, small or big...
Lie is lie eventually
