Long Distance Love

What do you think about people who date over the net? Sure, you must be careful but it can happen if you are discreet and realistic/idealistic about it.

Well, I would say don't do it. how would you ever even REALLY KNOW him. On the internet, you can't be sure of whats real and whats not sometimes. dating over the internet does NOT work, trust me on this one.

Ok, listen to me. I have done that myself and I reconment that you should not. Someone over the internet can not give you what you need. They are ot really there and you cant garentie they are telling you the truth.

Some people are being a little brutal to you about this, but if u wanna try it then you can, its your life. But just be really careful, you don't know who you are talking too. Where they live and what they really want from you.

Just be careful.

Good luck.

Off topic: What If I met the girl in real life but we continued our love over the net because I have to leave our country. But I really love her..

Alright, time for me to put my topic into this =]

I met my girlfriend over the internet, and we've been going out for nearly a year and five months now. We've never met each other, but we're planning to. I would've went over and seen her long ago if it wasn't for making sure everybodys alright with it first. We speak through the internet, the phone, we're closer than anyone could ever know. Heck, we even have arguments like couples do xD The point is, If its only going to be the internetand you don't plan on meeting the person, don't do a long-distance relationship. If you're in it for a long-term thing, then i say go for it! You can't control your emotions for one person, and nor can they for you sometimes =]

=] I wouldn't worry about your problem by the way.. If you really love her, and she you, then i'm quite sure you's will be okay. You seem very dedicated to her xD shes lucky to have you :)

"Two words: try life.

The internet is not a life."

Sometimes life thrusts people apart and long distance is all you have. I.e. my boyfriend and me.

We met, but now all we seem to have is texting and the internet. And barely even that.

Long Distance . If you`ve never met the guy, I sey drop it . Nuh uh` . I tried . I was lucky -- My friends knew the guy so I knew he was safe . But I ended up broken . I don`t know about him, but I sure as hell know I was hurt .

If you`ve met the guy, and you feel that you two truly have something - Go for it .

I agree with the statement that sometimes people see or find love where others cant. That is why we are all different and we are attracted to different people... if we all had the same opinion, we'd all want the same guy or girl but we dont because we value different things. no one can say u cant find love over the internet because u r not the one who is "in love" so how can you say they r not in love or that it wont work when you cant truly say that because ur not the ones involved. yes internet has taken over some part of peoples reality but thats just SOME, not all...

Never gonna help ya I say...

if you do fall in love with a guy over the internet, IF and only IF, your going to regret it sooner or later for not being able to see him or hernor be with him or her...

Some my advice keep away distance relaitionship away o.o
your only gonna get yourself hurten.

It fun, but it's not real.

Positive side= you get to know someone new, start fresh, and perhaps a new beginning. gain tryst and faith.

negative side= you dont know what they're really doing, you build low self-esteem and lack of confidence.

theres always two sides to the story or in this case, opinions. Do i think its weird...no. Would i ever do it...hard to say. course i have doubts about it, but then again you never know until you try. you only live once right..?? =o]

Nothing else matters but how you feel for eachother.

so, i could care less.

but life is all about risks. If someone wants to risk over the internet relationship, go for it.

People also learn from their mistakes. If its meant to happen, then maybe somewhere down the road that relationship over the internet will come back in your life further down the road.

Its a small world. You never know.

*True love waits*

Ok, I actually got to know my boyfriend over the internet before I met him and we're going strong =)
My best friend had this guy friend that she thought I would really click with as she put it but because I'm home schooled I didn't know him =P Well she started talking to me about him and told me a little about him and asked if she could give him my email because he really wanted to get to know me and I said yes =) Well, we started emailing back and forth and pretty soon we were sending about 4 or 5 a day and thats when he asked if I wanted to met him =D A week after I meet him we started dating and have been together ever since and still going strong =) By the time we started dating though, we knew eachother better then most people that had known eachother for years =) So yeah, I it works as long as you both trust eachother and plan on meeting eachother someday =)
Best of luck to everyone thats in one and I hope they all work =)

Two words: try life.

The internet is not a life.

I might go off topic a little bit on this one. Angelina (sp?) sometimes Internet is all we have to connect with those who we truly love. Ex: family, friends, ex-bfs/gfs.

Long distance relationships CAN work. There's a couple that live at my house (apartment building) that met over interent. She was in a total different country (atleast from what I heard) and he lived here in the United States. They were actualy talking about when she comes over here shes moving in with him. They've been married for a year an a half atleast if not more and they even have a little daughter. So relationships/friendships CAN work online!! You just need to make it work.

I think, for some people its not that easy.

I met my boyfriend over the net on msn, he lives in italy and i live in england. we met a few months after first talking, and we have loved each other ever since. i see him every 6 weeks and we talk via skype ( internet phone) altough sometimes it does get tough, i know what we have and i knwo that no one could ever replace him... i met my soul mate (mushy as it may seem)....over the internet and im not ashamed to say it.. if you like someone, be careful.. but go for it.

It's a waste of time. Go find someone you can actually spend time with.

Long distance love may have alot of problems may be it soes not work. only feelings and its difficult to make strong i think

Well ive done this and it did work but for some people it wont it just depends how u feel about it

Well a long distance relationship can be good...
but not if you've never actually met this person and is just doing online dating. personally i think that's kinda weird, i mean, it's like talking to a nonexistent person, you know....
