My YM boyfriend.

I think it`s very hard to find yourself a boyfriend through YM but as long as you know what you are doing and you don`t believe him 100% from the first day you may have some success.Good luck to you and call us to your e-marriage

getting a boyfriend or getting into a real relationship online is like a bet in lottery. There are are lot of people to choose from, different nationalities, different cultures. Your chance of finding the Mr or Ms. Right One is one in a million. If you find the right one, the feeling is like winning the JACKPOT prize sometimes it is more than that. Anyway, I'm telling you this because I have experienced it. I got my first boyfriend online (thru MIRC). We started as game buddy in a trivia games online. After some time, he asked for my phone and we became chatmate and phonepal. After several months, we decided to meet and the rest is history. It was a 6 years relationship. Even though we live in same country, our relationship was long distance and that's also the reason why it didn't go beyond 6 yrs. After that, I tried again but chat rooms changed a lot. The people online are mostly (but not all) liars, pervert, weirdos. Its very hard to find someone with a sense :) hehehe.. If you want to get into relationship with him, you should consider how much effort, time and feelings you want to invest. If you want to get serious but he is not then it will just hurt you or vise versa. As you have you said, you want to divert your attention away from your ex. It could help but I suggest before getting into relationship better remove the baggage from your heart and mind first :) Online relationship is fun specially if you dont really have time to go out for real and your buddy for whole day is laptop/pc like me (because of my work). Go for it if he is really worth your time. Who knows it might be a match in heaven :) .. By the way, I found my 3nd bf online again, we will soon meet this Christmas :) .The 2nd one didnt work out since he learned that he got his Ex pregnant. Goodluck and hope you will have a relationship that last a lifetime :) Just always be careful ;)

A long time ago when I was younger I tried to have a boyfriend through the internet. we talked on instant messenger and through a video game we both played. I thought I was in love with him even though I didn't "know" him in person. I didn't know if the pictures that I had seen where really him or not. I was silly for that when I was younger, I've gotten smarter over the years.

I did join a dating site and spent a month talking to this guy, then we began talking on the phone and after another month we met, and we've been dating for the past year and a half. The interwebs helps bring people together but you need to be very careful of who you are chatting with, and not to give out personal information right off the bat.

hi there, i haven't tried it but my boyfriend and i are so far away from each other right now. we talk a lot on skype and chat so that is just like dating on the internet heheheh but we have been together for almost 8 years now

well its a big deal, and such hard also, there is so much fake people around us in our life and we couldn't guess them and break up everyday fighting each other so how we sure that that person really the ONE . every single relationship base on trust if both of you have blind believe each other you guys successful. On internet people online for make friends and have fun and good night, real life is far different you need to have such longer time to understand each other, life is not only hehehe n hahaha and having fun. Good Luck ;)

Wow really! congrats on your new bf! if he makes you happy, and if he makes you feel that you are always secured with him even through online meet ups and through your chat times... I have had friends online they make me feel happy for their friendship and for their times but we do not have a relationship like yours and your boyfriend. I would agree that constantly talking to people and especially in your case, that your make you really happy, and would feel important and cared for.

It is good to have a chatmate in the virtual world and I think having one keeps the real world relationship stronger and on the other side of the coin keep the blues away.

That's a bit dangerous, since it's easy to lie and use a fake personality over the internet. If it makes you happy, I'd say go for it, but I also think you should at least do some checking. Try looking at the kind of stuff he posts on his Facebook page to get an idea of his other interests and what his other friends think of him. Or better yet, meet up at least once (someplace safe, where's there are lots of other people around).

I would find it difficult having a boyfriend on the internet. The problem with the internet is people can pretend to be someone who they are not in real life. You also don't get to enjoy the exciting parts of a relationship like going out, etc.

It is nice to be in a relationship whether online or personal. Just remember that having a relationship online is not a guarantee since you just talk only in yahoo messenger and you don't know well that person you are talking to. Since you already have feeling towards that person, and you think you two are going serious, tell him that you meet someday in order to really know about that person and his background. Goodluck.

I haven't tried yet but incase I do, I won't go for a serious relationship. Maybe someone to chat with but nothing beyond. I don't trust online dating.

good luck with that..hope that will work..there are already good stories about having an online relationship, and they ended to be together and happy..it's hard to know a person online..but i hope you'll find a way to know each other better..and i hope you'll forget about your ex..because misery always loves company..

having a boyfriend or girlfriend through internet is really hard . i mean it is really hard to get someone through internet but some people are getting through internet. they are really lucky to get someone through internet

Just be careful because he may not be who he says he is online, or he might not be what you expect. If time comes and he would want to meet you, please be accompanied by somebody and meet in a safe place where there are many people or where you could easily get away from if things become scary. I don't mean to scare you, but there are things in the news about meeting people online where the girls are hurt by the people they've met. I have a friend, she met somebody online. But, they became a couple only after they met. You know what? I hate the guy. He seems to be a playboy and even now that they have a child I suspect he still maintains some relationships other than my friend. Well, in some cases, though, some people find true love through the net.

There is nothing wrong with YM and finding a boyfriend online. We live in a world today that we do everything online. TO be honest, i actually found my husband off myspace 6 years ago and started a relationship online. Then once i felt ready to meet him i did in a public place. We have been together ever since. Best of Luck!
