Yes. I would consider one, I'm currently in one but we are an ocean apart. He lives in New Jersey and I live in Puerto Rico. We are not a couple since we decided we were not going to make anything official because of the distance and we didnt want to tie eachother down when we could have separate relationships until we meet then we would go out and if everything is ok and the chemistry is the same we would make it steady.

I think internet teaches us something about love...and it's to fall in love for one's personality and not the looks, because you learn how the other person is through their words, you can't see him/her unless he/her gives you a picture. I thought that falling in love through internet was dumb and useless but when it happened to me I realized the hidden message it holds. It's what our parents have always tried to teach us " Don't fall in love with looks but personality " I mean the guy could be hot but he could be an @$$ or he could be ugly and be a sweetheart.

Think about it.

i wouldnt consider an online relationship...cause u guys haven seen each other before...and how would u know whether she's lying? like her age or something... but it doesnt really matter does it? as long as u guys love each other,i guess its okay....

*pokes Jesse* Hey babe. You told me to read some of this stuff or whatever before my dad's cell kind of cut us out. Anyways,I am really glad we're together.

I am having to say online relationships do indeed work out. Others don't,like previous ones where I was subjected to a lot of things I didn't want. When I met a few guys online in the past,they were nice for a bit. Then when they saw they could take advantage of me,allowing anything in,they got to me through my weakness. I tend to become attached to people easily but,I learned my lesson.

Some guys are just online to have a good time,and cyber everything that just happens to IM them. Others try to fill your head with love and pretend they like you,just so you will say "I love you." Truth is,if they really loved you,they'd not move so fast.

I met Jesse 11 months ago,and I have seen. Not in person,but by pictures. And he has seen me,too by webcam and pictures.(103 of me,isn't it now?Lol) Anyways,yes when people are in online realationships it's hard to survive without the physical part. But when you are emotionally and mentally attached,you can make up for the physical stuff later.

There's always someone who is going to disagree with your life,and who you are dating. But you need to listen to your heart and smile,because theres someone always there to talk to. Jesse and I have had fights,but we made them through them,which at some points it made us want to leave eachother. But our love is so strong it held us together.

Emotional bonds formed,should be the first thing you go for,not physical attraction. You should love someone for who they are not what they look like. Unless they are like really ugly,then I suggest some facials or something.XD. Anyways,I should stop ranting,bye.^_^

If you truly hope and wish for something, than that something will never be an impossible thing.
Even there is rough and hard time, it’s not an obstacle if you don’t give up.
There isn’t a thing in this world that impossible, if you tried hard enough to find the answer.
If you believe it will work than, it will definitely work ^ ^.

I wanted to comment and say that there is still a possibility that you two could meet. If the guy really loves you and he has an opportunity to visit, its very possible. It could be worth it too.

Think about it.

About that, I totally agree with you there. I actually feel in love with my girlfriends personality first. I don't consider looks as highly important. Though, she is a very cute and sexy girl. I love her to death.

My instinct reaction to this question was a rather emphatic "no". I've had it hammered into my head an excess amount of times that anyone can be anything over the internet. While it's true that they can do that in reality as well, it's to a lesser degree or in a different way (plus it can be a little more difficult).

But at the same time, I can see some positive aspects of the situation. The internet is a useful tool for communication, working just as well as (or better than, in some aspects) using the phone. For example, it's very difficult for such a relationship to be based on looks or what you can get out of it... not impossible, but hard.

Anyway, I really don't think that's the kind of thing for me, and I may be a bit on the skeptic side... but to each their own, I suppose. It may work, it may not; such is the case with any kind of relationship.

no I wouldn't. Online relationships are for emo people.....and have you ever seen those commercials of online talking all that crap. lol

Well i kinda wanna try something like that but the prob is....
how do we meet each other in real life..?
i dont think you can speak with him/her non-stop without knowing how he/she looks like....
its kinda frustrating...

jesster86, DUDE that is fuckin awesome. 11 months ^^, I think anything can work out as long as you both have faith and support and belief in each other ^^. I friggin support you're relationship all the way man, in fact because its laborday weekend, you should go visit her. ^^ go man go ^^

Jesse..You little...*blushes* You shouldn't call me that in public. How dare you?! *giggles* You are sexy,too..you know its true. *laughs loudly* Hun,I am very glad you think so,but why,why do you say this in public? Ugh I hate you.(he knows I'm kidding) D00d,whats up with the pacman eating that guy? . Lemme guess-Waca waca waca...LOL. Anyways, guys everything is possible. Keep teh hope,and yes thanks for the luck,Jesse you are welcome for my post. By the way everyone,it will be a year September 14th. So remember it well. Muwahaha. Sorry,I'm ranting,but I have medicine that makes me hyper in my system.

No, I don't like online dating. I agree with kuroimisa. Online dting aren't very reious because the person can be cheating or using you. You can never treally trust a person unless you seen them face to face.

Met a girl online, she lived in colorado and myself in Ohio. We were friends for a year or two, then started dating after she came to visit while traveling through the state. We traved back and forth for a year, then moved into a place together in colorado.

We were married last year and are about 14 days away from our one year anniversery. Plus we also have a kid on the way, due January 31st.

So yes online relationships can work, but I will say I went through alot of different relationships before I found the person i'm with now. I think as time goes on more and more people are finding the internet a good way to meet people, and you run into the same risks you would as if you met someone in a bar afterall. Just in a bar you know what they look like right away.

Yep, I would give it a shot, sure there are a lot of problems such as using/cheating you but I never have so you never really know unless you try, anyway despite all the unsucessful relationships there are good ones ^_^

Yes, an online relationship can work to the point the couple feel the need to carry their relation to real life. Then it'll be a normal relationship.

Yep. I agree with most of you all. Jesse and I have known eachother atleast a year,we still have 11 days before its a full year. Yet we've been dating since January after his birthday. We just say September 14th is our anniversary,because thats the day we met and fell in love with eachother.
I agree,that yes sometimes online relationships sometimes can be bad,as in the whole cheating and using you type things. But when you have known that person and grown to trust them,then it should be simple. I know how it feels to have someone I thought loved me,turn out to be with me and other chicks constantly.That was the worst mistake I have ever made.
However,when I met Jesse,I knew he was the only person to truly understand me. He trusted me and took care of me. He still does,regardless what happens,he and I are wanting to stay together. Yes,I know adults try to say,you cannot love someone you have not laid eyes on. Well they may be right,but I don't let my parents choose who I date,thats my decision. Online relationships are like real life relationships. It takes both: time and effort.
So they are definitely worth it,if you are willing to give it a shot.

I wouldn;t say its impossible but i think theres too much risk involved.

For those that managed it I congratulate you but I never would do it.

Not to mention I really enjoy the physical side of a relationship too ^_^

yaah.. online relationships DO work.. but what you feel.. it's not called love.. a strong liking.. a bond.. but you cannot love someone you've never met >< ! that's my opinion.. i like someone online.. but.. i doubt they have the feeling of likeness them back.. i mean.. they have their life where they live.. and stuff.. and online relationships is different from real relationships.. i guess (yaay ^^ i dont make sense! lol) and haha.. i dont know why they call it "dating" cause dating is when you see someone.. but.. i dont know (ahh like i said.. i dont make sense =D)

*squeak* first post.

Anyways. I think they can work out. I've seen them work out. Its just a matter of how much work the couple wants to put into it, and with enough, it can work.

NOpe, im a pretty shallow dude. i liek a girl with looks. plus the fact that i like fact that i can actually be physically close to someone instead of just talin to thm online. so yea im not all to sure bout the online thing.

If you already know the person and distance is the only thing keeping you apart then why not?

I met my boyfriend in an online art community called Deviantart. I have been with him a long time and we are really happy together ^w^ we was pretty good friends for 4 years until we formaly started as a couple ^^ the good thing for us is that we can "easily" see each other ´cos we both live in Spain. But both have university classes so we meet only in vacation time and in Manga and Anime meeting. But I hope one day I could be near to him all the time...

(Sorry about my horrible English! XP)
