Will you fall in love with a girl/boy who is from half a world away?

Not so much. i have seen so many people with this kind of relationship break up over time - most would be able to see each other soon after months of seeing each other and chatting with each other online, via webcam. rarely will their relationship end in marriage, and one transferring to the place and relocating for their other half.
there is one case i know, but the guy remained a bit unfaithful - because he still chats online, finding girls online... looking for a chatmate while his wife sleeps and so on. its just that i think he is better off not marrying this woman because he admits he is liking other girls than his wife!!!

I believe in love on net and different countries as long as both are genuine.

i do, i do, i do. my bf is from europe and we are going strong. we knew each other in the Phils when he was traveling. after that we met each other about 3 or 4 times. one was when i resigned from my work to meet him in Thailand.
it's about give and take. meet each other half way. =)

no........
i dont believe in the love on net....
unless you dont know a person very well and not seen him than how u fall in love with him...
trust is a important factor of love and just by online chatting how can u trust that person..
he can be a fake also...his intention must just to do time pass or flirt with u and than ditch..
and if u get serious about him, u will be very hurt and depressed and will simply end by messing ur life....

well sometimes we get to know someone on the net, we chat and feel excited to hear form him/her and we take it as love. But i think real love is when you spend time with someone but never bored with him/her and even though fully aware of his/her bad side, you can't live without that person. Love on the net is temporary.

I think it's not only possible but it is a modernized method of long distance relationships throughout history.
Have we forgotten the tales of men and women writing heart felt letters to the ones they loved over spans of years and distances far greater than oceans just about? The Japanese had a system of courtship where poems were written back and forth between courting lovers. They may never have met one another but their hearts and spirits went forth in each letter.
I'm certain that love has grown from pen pal projects in high school and simply developed from there into a mutual affection or lasting friendship.
It's true that there is a great deal about a relationship online that you can simply 'take or leave' as you like, but I'd like to think that wanting to see that person someday would be inspiring enough to urge travel where normally one would remain stationary.
Who knows? You might get love AND an adventure out of it all!

In my personal opinion, I think it's far from impossible because there are countless people who have direct personal testimonies about this kind of situation. It is inevitable to experience such thing because I believe that TRUST, INSTINCT and RISK is the main key here. If you have a strong feeling that the other person who's far far away is very much deserving for a chance to love and to be loved then WHY NOT? Nothing is certain when it comes to it. That is why there's what we call RISK. But it doesn't mean that it shouldn't be taken.
