I have just read that one couple got divorce just after 15 day of marriage, they fell in love with each other on net, met each other and their family and got married, then 17 months net love converted in relationship, and it couldn't stand for 17 days either so Net friendship, how much successful?just mention other relationships like net brother or net education help

An internet relationship isn't much different then any other relationship. You have to really get to know someone before you rush in to anything. I have been with my fiancee for six years now. We met on the internet. We got to know one another before we went any further. At the end of this summer we are getting married. Its not because that couple met on the internet that they got a divorce. Its because they rushed to get married instead of getting to know one another first.

its ok even I have made so many good fnds here those are more than my life, but to get help or to help someone on net and to live with them is different as religion and other things are different..

My husbands bestfriend met his wife online. They talked onlie for a little while then dated for about a month and moved in together and are now married for over a year now an still going strong. The thing to remember is sometimes it works out and sometimes it dosnt. Everyones story is diffrent.

There should be some serious reason for the marriage to break in such a haste. Without having any hint of the reasons how can we put the onus for the marriage collapse upon the internet. In my knowledge an anarranged marriage in an upper middle class family broke down the very next day. The reason was, the boy was impotent. What I suggest is that without knowing about the reason for the marriage break we cannot comment on it. Do you agree lovedude?

To meet online and then rush into marriage is crazy! Now, let me say that it can work, it did for me, we just haven't rushed into marriage. We met online and a month later he flew down to meet in person. We agreed that we would meet as friends, no pressures and then if it didn't go any further we would at least have a good friendship. However, it did work, he spent a week with me, and a month after he flew back home, I was putting things in storage and loading up my car to move up to be with him, we have been together 2 years and we are still happy together. I have also met others that I met online, and have formed some very good friendships.

So they married directly after meeting each other for real? :P Relationships started online can work out, but you should first give it time for real as well to see if the two match, don't directly marry, since the person online and for real can appear quite different.
