Relationships Formed From Social Networking Sites

Hmm by relationship, if you mean a romantic relationship, I haven't made any but I have made other relations like friends and mylot is one of the examples for it. Anyway there are many successful stories of relationships from internet and online services and it's actually good and I wish them luck in their life. But there have been many accidents and killings because of it too. So it can be a curse as well as a blessing at the same time.

I have the similar story.Me and my girlfriend used to chat in mig33.com.Do you know about mig33.com? From there we had our relationship.Our relationship is now on 3rd year. We used to chat daily and after chatting of five months we decided to see with each other,then I add her on facebook.I saw her picture there.Then I asked her to meet me.After few days we meet and that day I proposed her and she told that she had fallen with love before,but could not express.This is my story.

I use to talk on yahoo chat all the time when a friend told me to try another chat that was like 2d (palace chat) this was back in 1995. Was a family chat room, meaning kids were in there to so keep it clean. I made several friends there but I met this guy there and we became friends online and talked for hours. I wasn't looking for anyone to meet or anything of that nature it was just away to unwind after work. Bunch of us would meet up and play online games and such. He was like 3000 miles away from where I lived thought we would never meet. After 2 years of friendship he told me he loved me. A year later we met(May99)few months later(Aug99) we married. From meeting online and talking online and phone we got to know everything about each other so when he showed up it was like he had been on vacation and was finally home. This year we have been married 12 years. In 1995 meeting people online and getting married was still tabu....lol

Hi Thrillerassassin oh what a user name. I was on some social site and now do not remember what as it was a few years back. I met someone whom seemed about my age and a good friemd. We really formed a friendship and corresponded for a number of years then wham she never sent me another email. I did sent one to a so called friend of hers and learned that this person actually never existed and that the real person was the woman's teen aged nephew who played a lot of mind games pretending to be various ages and various types of people.She apologized and added that he was finally diagnoese with schizophrenia and was hospitalized at present. so I have not been into socializing anymore with some unkmown entity. However I have plenty of mylot friends here who are not people playing mind games. lol.

Not a romantic relationship, but friendships. Though there are one or two who would be very interesting romantically if we didn't live so far apart...

So that's how? A relationship can really sprung from simple things, in your case, social networking sites. I know a lot of people who got close because of Facebook and Friendster back then. It is a nice starter to warm up and get close with your prospect partner. Though I really don't have such kind of experience or story to share in here.

no, never had that thing happen to me. I used networking sites to get updates from my friends and I like them coz I find friends that I lost contact with years ago. But to find your other half in the social networking is cool! good for you! :)

Yes, it's awesome. :) I met a few close online friends online. One of them we started messaging through youtube, I think two were from imvu (back when i used it). I talked to all 3 for a while before I actually friended them on facebook, just to be sure. And I've sent packages back n forth with all of them :D It's awesome to have these relationships, and friends from other parts of the country.

I don't really use social networking sites that much. I just deleted my facebook and I'm not planning on making one anytime soon. I guess you can call me old fashion. I just want the make friends in person. I want to receive tangible cards and not eCards. But I have a classmate in junior high that I just recently got in touch with. I went to England for school at that time and we just recently reconnected because he saw my sisters facebook and contacted me from there. I see nothing wrong with meeting other people online and being in a relationship with them. Nice to hear that it worked out for you.

That's not really relationships formed from social networking sites when u've already known her in high school, even if it's by name only. My brother often had relationships formed online with strangers, but it's just a fling he had with them. None of them last more than a month because they are at different end of the world, and being online is their only way of communication. Overtime, he gets bored and the relationship ends too.

I have met my dates in the past through MIRC back then. I have also met my ex hubby using the same medium. It was one of those sad stories that started happy and ended bad with casualties involve. My daughter.Not all stories are like mine since I have a girl best friend who met the love of her life through one of the dating sites. They hit it off and are now happily married although they live in two different countries and have different cultures once before.

i also had one school mate that i was not very close to at school. we started chatting thru facebook then he asked for my number. we would talk for hours on the phone and he visited me in my place of work. He became my boyfriend but it was only for a short time because we were in a long distance relationship.

I heard a lot of stories about relationship formed from social networking sites and some even get married and some had unplanned pregnancy. During the old times when there's no internet only pen pal is the only way to communicate to each other and a lot of relationship was formed. Nowadays it's easy to find a relationship on your fingertips.

Hello there. Well it is nice to hear that you had developed a special relationship through friendster. Well I also have the same experience as you had. I meet this guy through YM. It was 5 years ago. That time YM is so famous same as Facebook today. We just meet in one of the chat rooms then we started to talk and he asked for my mobile number then same as you the rest was history. But I think it's not meant to be since the relationship didn't worked out even though we are seeing each other everyday. But I will still consider that event happened to my life as my unforgettable experience.. :-)
