Well..I guess we've established that online dating is not for everyone...those who are missing out, are just that...missing out. If that's the way they wanna go then I'm sure they'll have good times meeting people in person. Everyone's different anyway, and do things their own way. I for one, though, think it works.

Well its like shopping i think: Do you only shop at one store? And settle for the best item at that store only? No. You shop around all over, and pick the best item at the best store, for the best deal. It's the same thing.
I think dating people who are only around your area is "settling for less." Not that you couldn't meet the perfect person there, hell, they could be living next door. But still, saying that you wouldn't date someone who's perfect for you because of distance is sad.

First off i wasnt being sarcastic when i said congrats on the first post (dont know how you got that idea), and all i was saying is if you dont know what the person looks like that you are getting to know it can't work out (at least for me). As far as the trust thing if you are being 100 percent honest w/ someone then i agree you have no reason not to give the person the benefit of the doubt.

I usually give people the benefit out the doubt most of the time, even if I don't know them. I don't assume they are being dishonest. You must not let anyone get close to you. That has to suck.....
And nearly all the people who become close friends or start a relationship online HAVE seen each other, talked on the phone, etc. Quote:

Anyone who says online relationships aren't "real" are the ones who make them not real. The ones who hurt other people when they happen to have them.
Just accept it as a different way of getting together. You dont' need to be together. You just need to know each other.

...online relationships not real?!? What is this then? Everyone on this forum has some sort of relationship with each other...What about that? Is this fake too? Just our imaginations? psh..not real..
that wasn't directed to anyone in general really..just anyone who thinks online relationships aren't real. Cause, any relationship online can be real, whether it be love or hate.

Man, I've met like a quadrillion people off the net, and you know how many of those weren't who they said they were? 1.
It's called don't go and meet someone if you haven't talked to em on phone, seen pictures of them, and seen them on cam. At least that's my opinion. If the person isn't who they say they were after that, they're either a shapeshifting freak, or you're on crack. Noata, seriously, just trying meeting someone, then you'll see.

all i said was if you dont meet the person(or know what the person looks like) then you can't have a relationship past the friends part.

For an online relationship to be "honest", you really have to check where you're going. I'd trust someone I meet over FFR a hell of a lot more than someone I would talk to on "Teen Chat" (or along those lines) for being who they say they are. Typically, at least for me, it's easy to figure out who's lying about who they are and who's not.

agreed, I totally think you can fall in love with someone's mind. Weird yes, but still possible.

Distance makes the heart grow fonder...
It's not the same. It can be on the same level, but it's just different. Could it be higher if it was in person? Oh god yes. |

The problem with this whole deal is the fact that even if you are lucky enough to find your "true love" on the internet and marry them, you'd probably have to worry more about the >50% of American marriages that end in divorce.
I wonder if all these internet romances have anything to do with it... I guess I'll have to find out more on that... [/i] |

no, i think the younger you get married, the more chance you have for divorce.

My suggestion is to avoid online dating... too much needless bullshit arguments, complications, as well as the fact that you are very limited in what you can do and share together.
But you can use the 'net to find people in your area. |

Or any area for that matter, but like we've all agreed already, the bigger the distance, the harder to maintain the relationship.

You lose the entire body language aspect of communicating, and I find that very important.
