We are a couple that met online spent 2 years having very hot conversations. Swearing that we were both each other soul mates. Met three times, and finally moved in with each other. Its been a year of living together of real life. Very iffy. Are there any other couples out there that can chat with me on this subject

I met my wife online 7 years ago on yahoo personals.  I liked her ad so I emailed her.  She emailed me back, and we chatted on instant messenger for a few days.  Then I called her and we talked on the phone for a week or two.  \n\nThen we went out on our first date.  I met her parents that night, we had a great date and saw each other every day after that.  We got married 5 years ago and have two beautiful children.  I don't regret it for a minute.  It is a wonderful experience and I wasn't good at finding the right woman at my college, my girl was at a different college and I would never have met her otherwise.

I've been married for 14 years and have continuously thought of my first true love.  Just about 2 months ago I came across his email address and contacted him through email.  Yea, he's married but is so glad that I contacted him.  I'm still his true love although he's now married as well as myself.  We email and occassionally he calls me.  It was such a relief to finally be able to talk with him.  He lives hours away, but we email each other daily.  So, I'm telling you, contact her.  You'll be glad you did.

I cannot agree or disagree with him.  I was not present during all of those 4 to 5 months that the couple was dating.  He says he never promised her to get into a serious relationship, but did he ever tell her that?  Did he just lead her on for the sex?  Did she ever ask him what his intentions were?  Did she just assume that because they were having sex that the relationship was serious (or would lead to more commitments)?\nAnd what business is this of yours (unless the woman was your sister)?\n... and don't you just hate it when somone answers a question with a bunch of questions?

he's acting like that because you are going to be divorced soon and I bet he is married.... just from the way he is reacting, so move on dear - and give yourself time to heal completely before trying to get into another relationship. (you have to resolve all the issues that lead to your failed marriage - if you don't you'll drag that old baggage into another relationship.) If there was anything there you two would of met in person.... you talked for a long time without meeting and that should of told you something about him. (I've only met one man online who wasn't married and he was honest with me about his personal life and that's the man I'm married to! We talked for about 2 months and then we met in person - he helped me with coming to Canada to meet him.... and we "clicked" - and got married 3 months later! We have been married for 4 yrs. as of Sept.28th).... While I was single and chatting with men online for years --- they all turned out to be married or living with someone(with whom they had kids with).

I am wondering how many people who do online dating are\n1-already married....seen lots of guys do this\n2-been married and divorced many times over\n3-players who just want to have sex and nothing more

Yup!  Dated for 18 months and got married this January!  We chatted online for two months before we met in person and it was happily ever after since then!

Oh hell, we are so different now its almost funny. But we grew together, not apart. He's military, so he started cussing a bit more (stopped that in the house), we both gained about 20 pounds in the last 9 years. We both have things we didn't realize till married. Lots of things. But that always happens, the changing part. If we were still the same, it would be so sad. But I found out lots of good things about him. And we try to talk alot when we notice changes. Its all about communication!

Chalk it up as a life experience, and move on. Long distant relationships seldom work, especially, it would seem to me, ones between two different countries. It is possible, I suppose, but brothers and sisters seldom hold hands in America, that would be more of a European thing. Really, you two live so far apart, how is it going to work out anyway?

Yes, it's possible, and yes the relationship can last.  I met my gf (now fiancee) online and for the first 2 months of our relationship, we had not met face-to-face.  We have maintained our long distance relationship for over a little over a year now, and I know of many others who have been in an LDR for a longer time.\n\nYou could ask, philosophically, how "real" the relationship would be if the two people have not physically met.  I believe the essence of a loving relationship is mutual love, which I believe can transcend time and space.  For example, I believe the loving relationship between a mother and her yet-to-be born child is real and persists long after the mother has given birth to her child, reared him, grown old, and died.

different parts of the country i can say yes, world i dont know. i met my husband online and we have been married for over 2 years now. i found there was no bullsh*t when we talked online it was just us no friends or family getting in the way so we got to know eachother very well. hope that helps :-)

I know how you feel. I dated my first girlfriend for a year. Now I am married and my husband and I both check out the cute women walking down the street. He thinks its hot. We have even thought of bringing other women into bed with us. Though so far we haven't.

You should harness that connection. Whether you are both one and the same shouldn't prevent you from having a meaningful relationship with this gentleman. \n\nAs far as soul mates go, yes I do believe I've found mine. It's a strange situation. A contact on MSN came up and I had not spoke to him in over a year. We decided to meet for coffee and we immediately had the "Have I met you before" cliche. :)\n\nWe both share practically all our interests, hobbies, humour. It's a joy being around him and he says the same for me. The strange thing is, we have never met before. He moved from Russia to Canada in 2000, and he's lived in my area of town for nearly 2 years. Stranger yet we cannot figure out how I got his email, because I wasn't on his list and I assumed it was PLentyoffish.com where I met him but he had just created the profile the day before...\n\nWhether we are or not doesn't take away from the fact that in a week, he has already said that he never wants to leave and I feel the exact same. We are, one and the same. Even if you aren't soul mates...work on harnessing the energy there. You never know what may become of it. :)

Yes I have  the same experience ...understand everything happens for a reason..ever thing, nothing happens by mistake...if it was meant to be ...then you would still be communicating with them...but just know obviously they aren't the one so don't give up your soul mate is out there...and he will find you...keep hope alive

SNAP!!!!!!\n\ndid the same thing with a guy i met on her too. stayed up all hours just chatting about stuff and listing old songs! \n\nok, here's what i think. when you meet someone you just 'click' with, it is easy to get carried away with yourself and be consumed with it all. thats not to say that there is not anything serious there. all i am saying is reality is often different to fantasy.\n\nme and the guy i'm still chatting too met a couple of weeks ago. he is a great guy but i think we both felt that reality was a little different. we still chat and i am due to see him again shortly.\n\nwhat we decided was to take things slowly, get to know eachother better as friends as see what develops from that. it's the most sensible option i think.

I was married to a german national. we had a long distance relationship before we got married. but (and this is the key thing), because you cant interact in person with someone in a long distance relationship, you lose the inflections of the conversation and the body language and all the other small things that complete a persons definition. because i couldnt see that with this person, she got her citizenship and then blew town. Divorced me and left me with an empty bag. Im better off now, and am better off without her, but the point is that without the personal interaction and receptives of being in person, the relationship is doomed. be it 6000 miles like mine, or 6 miles. if you dont see the person regularly, you will never really know them. The same applies tenfold for internet relationships. The internet is now in its early teens and I have never once seen an online relationship that ever worked. Nuff said.

No, I wouldn't let it come between us. Eventually, one person would relocate, but that's just logistics. Hummm...about meeting someone online? I guess it would depend where you met them. Typically people you run into in chat rooms or on free sites don't tend to be of the same quality (or want the same things out of a relationship) as people who use paying services.

It most definitely can happen.  My husband and I met on the internet and created a relationship from online chats and phone conversations.  We started dating, met face to face, and the rest is history.
