Many filipinas find their true love through chatting in the internet. Have you tried lloking for a partner or someone to love in the internet? Well, i had boyfriends that i met through chat. I think i already have 2 of them I started doing it when i was 15.

Im too picky to mess wih looking for a girl on the net. Maybe from a dating site but never a "chat room girlfriend" To many people B.S. about what they look like on the net. Id be very annoyed if some girl acted like she was a bombshell only to meet her one day and find shes the opposite. Maybe its just me but i feel its kinda tacky doin the online relashonship deal. I couldnt get anykind of personal with someone ive never met in person which would hinder the whole scheme of things wouldnt it?

I stongly agree with you. I tried having boyfriends online but none of them worked out since we never had any personal contact. I don't even know what they look like (eventhough they sent me some pics). I'm not sure if they are really the person in the pics they sent me. I find it hard to have a online relationship.

I met my now boyfriend through an online dating site, at first when he started writing to me I thought that there was no way that I would enjoy going out with him, then he asked me to go to an baseball game (I am a huge sports fan) so I went and had such a good time, our second date was to a boxing match (another favorite of mine) and I was hooked after that one, we have been together for almost a year now and living together for the past 5 months. He is the love of my life and someone I treasure everyday. The internet is a great way to meet people that you would not have the opportunity to do if it was not there.

Actually we become close friends before she became my GF, that was 11 months after we've chatted.

No, I wouldn't think about it. I even hate blind dates. When I left my marriage a few years back, my friends were urging me to date some eligible men that they know but I had to turn the offers down. Love just happens. You don't have look for it someplace else.

You absolutely right. You can't force love. I also hate blind dates.

Wow! You have cyber BF and it's already 2! Can we chat? LOL. In my case, well I used to chat before but I don't do that to find a partner. I just treat it as fun like finding someone to annoy in a positive way of course. - Ron Reyes www.ronreyes.co.nr

hehe. lol. Annoying someone in a positive way? How is that? Actually, at first, i never had any intentions of finding a bf online. But i think it's worth a try.

Annoying someone in a positive way... hehe how can I explain this? Uhmmm like asking questions that I know they won't answer. Something like that. Hehe. But I only ask decent questions of course.

Maybe not all. I think some of them are trustworthy because i know someone who met her beloved hushband online and now they're living happily after just like in fairytales. lol. Why don't you try it? Just once.

never had the opportunity to try it when i was still single. but a friend of mine did fine love on the net and is happily married in Italy. Yup, the guy is Italian. But not all have a happy ending. so be cautious who you meet on the web. there are a lot of predators lurking on the net.

Well, It's a good thing that your friend got a happy marriege through the net. A friend of mom also ended up that way. But your correct, not everyone will have a happy ending.
