Is it really possible that someone you met online can fall for you?

It is possible. My former girlfriend, i first met her online. We eventually became real life sweethearts. In cyber relationships, it's always been the distance. If not because of distance, do you think the guy won't meet up with you? His moves are just limited that's why saying the things he feel is the only thing he can do. Gifts will take time but words don't. I guess you just don't have feelings for him. It's that simple. There are lots of ways to fall in love online. His/her looks. His/her personality. Sometimes we just fall for the person simply because we find him/her too smart that we dream how it would feel in person to be conversing with him/her. People who fell in love looked way beyond the physical attraction. Online relationship is just a prelude for much better things to come.

Yes, it is not common, but it is possible. My husband and I met online first, we sent mails for sometime......finally we met...after a few meetings...we fell in love and decided to get married. We are happily married for five months. He is a wonderful person. I lived in Inida and he live in America. So, there is no chance for me to meet him other than through internet. I belive it is god's grace and plan that both of us should be together and internet came to help us.

I met my net friend 3 years back, then we chatted regularly. He works as computer proffesional. After 1 year, we feel an inclination towards each other. And he tried to find a project in the country where i was living. And then after 1.5 years be "friend and loved" on net, we met up, and we really fall in love. We had good times, and we find each other as honest person and loving person. we didint care about religion difference between us that time, till we fall in love each other deeply. And things went worst for us, later we realize, religion is very important, and we never discss it.

i think the secret of that thing why is it working for others is the mystery and compatibility...cause compatibility plays an important role in a relationship..maybe you might fall for someone in the net cause you do have same interest..plus the mystery that you dont know that person totally can help too..well as long as they are enjoying..i see nothing wrong with it,,what is crazy is that you fall for a cyber person that was a program only..hehe just kidding..

I, like you, have never thought it possible to have an internet relationship. I used to speak to an australian guy online. I was really, almost addicted to talking to him.But there was always a feeling inside me that i didnt know if he was telling the truth, and that he could be some perv or something. But i did enjoy our conversations, i cant deny that. Recently, my friend introduced me online to this guy she knows. I have never actually met him. He lives near to me though. We get on really well! I have never met him but i know he is who he says he is because of my friend, i think that is ok. When you have no idea who they are that is a little bit weird and dangerous especially if you decide to meet them.

hi sharksfin, i believe it can happen. you know why? it happened to me. I met my husband on line, we are 10,000 miles away, exactly on the opposite side of the globe. I met lot of friends on line before i met my husband, and 4 of them came over to visit me just to proved that they are real and they meant good. But with my husband, i am already attarcted to him even before we met in person , he is a good talker and with sense of humor and very smart too its one of his qualities that made me comfortable and kept me talking with him. But being on line takes time to build rspect and trust to the person you are chatting to. Me and my husband asked a thousand question just to make sure we are both real and exhange pictures too. and it took a while before we agreed that we like each other and its worth pursuing the relationship. In your case, you dont even like him (for now)and its another thing if you dont even enjoy chatting with him, then ill say just let it go. He maybe the type of person that easily get emotional. I would say take your time and just be cautious, cyber relationship dont work for everybody.

I too am not a firm believer in cyber love affairs. But I guess there those that have successful relationship via net. Anyway if you are not a believer then you should not involve yourself in that kind of relationship. If you have a suitor then he should prove to you what you require ti satisfy you.

While love stories beginning with internet encounters or even meeting through text messages, I've always been a cynic about finding love online. Then again, I think meeting people online is for many people a good way to meet people while sparing yourself the judgement that may come when meeting people face to face, and judgement time is put off until you know the person a little better (i.e. through internet chat, text messaging, etc.). And I think that YOu Got Mail isn't about finding love online, but about finding another side to another person's character through an alternative medium like the internet.

No cyber love or other relation will last for longer term. Cyber friendship is for timepass and not for longer relationship

There are no impossible. You can see that already for many years that filipinas are marrying many foreigners from chats offered in the internet. It is possible because you will never ever know what will gonna happen in the future.

I don't get it either.Why so many people play E-love?...

I think that people kind of fall in love with the things you say, rather than your personality, because who knows who you really are? For example, you could say you're 6'2", blonde, blue eyes, female, 18, and is totally in love with the idea of falling in love and quotes Shakespeare constantly, when you're really a 45 year old male, who's 4'3", likes younger males and HATES Shakespeare. Therefore, you pretty much fall in love with the way the person is talking. I think I had a guy fall in love with me over the internet, but he worked things out with his ex-girlfriend, and they got back together. He lived in Australia, and I lived in the US, so that would've been just an all-around awkward relationship considering we couldn't see each other, like... EVER. Anyway, it is possible to fall in love over the internet, just make sure you don't try to find them in real life... Weird/bad things have happened with that before.

Someone I know has been out with lots of people she met online. She even got engaged to one of them! However, they did all end badly! Some of them (in my opinion) were freaks. Some were nice though. I think it could work out, but certainly when this whole concept began, I always wondered why people were forced to look on the internet - can they not find someone in person? Is there something about them that repulses people so they are forced to get to know people through a medium like online?

Cyber love is a kind of temporary love which is washed away like RAM when you turn of your computer, and most of the time this love disappoints people coz about 80 percent of people who meet other people on internet lie about their personality etc...

hello shaksfin I think it is possible because it happened with me and it then moved into real life, but the problem was that I didn't like that girl so much but she kept on calling and messaging me for one and half year , she stopped when she saw me having a GF ..

Hello Sharksfin!!! I hope that sort of things can happen. And because it has happened in my life too, I have to say such things happen for sure. There was a girl I used to chat mostly once in the weekend. I was just taking her as a friend. Our friends stared totally on the internet. She didn't met me, I didn't met here. She lived in the other part of the county. The chatting went on for about two years, at least once a month. She used to tell that she had told other friends that I am her boy friend. I thought she just saying, and I didn't mind. But she had actually liked me for real and later she proposed me on the telepehone...I had no any such feelings, so I had to say no... So, may be he's feeling for you.... Happy mylotting...

well this is a extact take on a penpal/snail mail ... you keep chatting on on and on, someday you'd be so comfortable talking to him and so on. Thats the day you realise you may have to meet him, because even though he says nice stuff to you or even you say in return. you may take things too deep which is not very good doing online when you havent even met the person. Its better to meet him, keep online chatting to a minimum.

I did make some new freind through the cyber world but we would meet in the real world once at least.I don't know how can two people fall for each other when they've never met.Maybe the guy you met is good writer I think.He like to write love letter I guess!

I know it's completely possible. Because there are so many ways you can keep in contact with people other than just typing. I knew a guy once, I wasn't in a relationship with him but he is the closest friend I have ever had. We talked online every day for years. We texted each other while we were at school, we went on webcam to each other, we rang each other up and talked about our days.. it was just like having any other friend apart from I think the fact that we didn't see each other made us want to keep in contact even more. He was attracted to me and I was attracted to him but we never did anything about it. So I know it is possible so I am sure it is possible to love someone aswell. I think there is a matter of trust though, I got to know this guy for 2 years before we developed these feelings for each other. I knew he wasn't just having a joke about it because we trusted each other.

Everything that everybody experiences on the internet is the exact same as real-life life, except visuals of the person. I believe everything that exists in real life can exist on the internet, except for violence. Also, about the whole "made-up" thing, it can be made up in real life as well, you just have to take your chances.
