Lately one of my friend advised to me that she could not find the true love in reality and decided to find the true love in the net. The best point for her is that if the man in the guy can read her from the deep mind, no matter how how urgly or how poor it is, she is willing to get along with him. I advised to her the Plato love is not real, and the risk of being cheated is very high. If you were her, could you find your life mate from the visional world?

i have heard true to life stories about internet affairs, there are happy endings and sad endings of course.
you are right that the risk of being cheated is high. It would be a relief if she can cam-to-cam chat. But you know, i have met a guy over the internet and he has been professing his love to me. I made many researches about him and guess what... he is 419er! Tell your friend to be really cautious, smart and alert for these people.

Hi Grace,
Really appreciate on your comment. I do agree with you. I see my fried is really falling into it, I will give her a friendly warning that the cautious, smart and alert sense should be applied when she insisted. But as you know, girls are always senstive and emotional that few of them can take other's people advice.

I have a lot of friends who find there true love via internet. i didn't know how it is but for me i is much better to see them in person because they can fake themselves in front of the cam or gave fake picture. its hard to trust somebody that you didnt really know nor you see.

Hi Junmae,
Just worried that the internet guy will wear the fake mask even in the internet, it is very hard to judge from the words they he showed.But I know if we can not cover a great gulf fixed, then we can never find the true love that God endows to us.

I found the love of my life on the internet. It was a long time between meeting on the net and meeting in real life. He was not rich, I was rich in so many ways compared to him,but he had a heart of gold, which was so much more than all the riches I had. She Should not be just willing to get along with him, she should take the time to get to know him. True love can be found, but i think it is a feeling that you feel if he is the right one.

It's already not new to find love on internet. i have a few friends and myself all found our loves on internet.
I think internet has a few advantage to find true love.
first, internet is more effective to know more people, before you know a particular one you already have a chance to choose in thousands.
second, people on line can easily find their interest one through the profiles provided by others. so you can get a big picture about them.
third, it saves time too. before you meet some one in person you can talk deeply with him and see if you and the person are suitable or not.
fourth, internet is already a big part of our life. more and more people believe in the way to make friends on line.so you can have more choice than just focus on your ordinary life.
last but not least internet is same as real life. you can meet good person you maybe meet wrong one. so no matter what you do with the internet and no matter whom you met being careful is principal.

I think finding love from internet is not a good idea. We don't know all about that person's background before. Actually, even if that person is a criminal, we won't know about it if we stuck on the internet for cyber love. But however, perhaps there's some people could find their soulmate from online love. I think it depends on your own fate, if you believe in fate. More over, it's not a bad idea to try your luck by searching someone as friend from the internet. Who knows if one day everything can growing and that person is your soulmate. But don't expecting too much from such love since everything started from invisible person. Good luck and have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

Hi Dianmedydia,
I do not know how to pronouce your name, hehee~~You get a point there and That was I am concerning about. After all, the internet hides too much and if my friend did not have much sense on that, she will finally get hurts on that.
Best Regards,

True love comes in whatever ways. In reality, internet is reality too! It can be a way for you to find your true love. You will not always find the one you will spend your life with in your environment. Sometimes, you have to explore new things in order to meet new people and no one can tell where and when you'll find the love of your life.

I have, so why not her? The beauty of online interaction is that you get a lot of the basic getting to know each other out of the way in a medium that allows you to much more easily avoid embarrassment and be honest. Of course it also allows dishonesty, but that happens in real time anyway, so nothing is lost by trying. Once you have established mutual interest and exchanged enough information about one another to make the decision to meet, a lot of the awkwardness of first dates has already been overcome, and if there is a spark there, the potential is good.
The only danger I see is that one can convince oneself that "this" is real before you meet, and that, I believe, can be a dangerous and costly mistake. All the onlibe interaction can really do is indicate potential.

oh this is a tough one. there are cases where people found their soul-mates on the net, but its rare. and the risk of getting cheated is high. knowing someone well on the internet takes a long long time. i believe no one wud be able to keep up a facade for too long, but isnt waiting for that long a time kinda taking patience to the extreme? but its her choice, if she wants to give it a try, i say let her...

Hi,
Yes, as a friend, I will respect every decision she made, no matter how the result, she should undertake every result that brings, but I hope that I can give her the benefit and defects that the internet brings. SOmetimes I realized that finding the true love just like investing on the stocks, if the index goes up, then we are lucky, if not, we will suffer more.

Well,you worry is not impossible,but as long as one has enough social experience,he can always find ways to avoid being cheated or something like that.I did not experienced net love myself,but my friend did,he even get married with the girl now who he knew from the net.Yes,one thing I agree with you is that,for this people who is seeking true love online,they will fall in love easilly if finally they find the one who really understand them,and this kind of love and marrage can be great and strong.

It is only utopia and dream that the net love gives to us. IMO the percentage to get the net relationship is below1%!! Why? It is internet guys, the only place that you can fake anything, well it is better that your friend looking for someone in a real life, remember this, when someone love you no matter how ugly you are, indeed that is what people called love:)

You can but like you said the risk is high. My friend married with a guy she found via Friendster. I find it's hard to believe at first but apparently, he's a good guy and they have been happily married with one son now. There are liars in there but there's also someone worth being with. So just ponder carefully before you made you mind whether to be with that person or not.
