I never have but I wouldn't expect too much out of a online affair. You really don't know anything about the person. Everything could be a lie.

Well you want be losing them per say.  You can still stay in touch by phone and visit them.  It all depends on how well you know the person you are moving to be with.  If it someone that you have known a long time and feel confident that you will be happy there.  Its a big step so think things thoroughly through.  There is an old saying no risk no reward but if you know this person really well and you are sure that once you get there things between you will be good then I say go for it.  I wouldn't advise moving to be with someone you have spent little time with in person. If it is an Internet romance or even a long distance relationship schedule some vacation time in which you can go spend a relatively long time in their presence.  People have an odd way of looking perfect from a distance.  Take you time, think things through, and good luck!!

hey, i went online, maybe you can too.  I've gotten lots of attention but haven't found anyone yet that I'm interested in dating full time.  It takes time but if you meet this person online, you could get to know her a little better and then maybe after a few emails, a few message sessions, and a few phone calls you might actually work up your courage to go on a date.  It might work!

Sure -- as long as everyone knows there cannot be any emotional ties.  On-line friends are a terrific sounding board and some even come with "added benefits".  All depends on what you're looking for.  Good idea to set boundaries even with "real life friends", so of course setting with on-line makes perfect sense as well.

You sound like a very nice person.  Hang in there.  You'll probably get her back in time.  AND LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIPS DON'T WORK VERY WELL.  I'm going to ask that question next about any lone distance relationships working for anyone?

I have met a couple of really nice guys on Singlesnet. Also, you can email a featured member for free, so if you find a featured member that you are interested in you don't need to join. I haven't paid to join, but have contact with the men I want to contact.

i met my husband on there ... i met a lot of guys but dated about 5 (plus my husband) ... their were 3 that were okay ... one was just rude, the other 3 were well .. it was easy to understand why they were single ... my husband had the most straightforward down to earth ad ... and we clicked ... 4 years after we met we got married

ahha...the ole online love. Ive been there. Im assuming you are curious if it will work for you. Online stuff is funny. You get a chance to chat with someone, get to know their personality and kind of *feel them out* before meeting them. I actually have a good outlook on the whole online dating scene. It beats going to a bar and trying to scream over music while getting to know someone. \n\nof course there are drawbacks, you can be whoever you want online. Who is gonna know? Nothing is for sure until you meet. Advice, take your time chatting with someone, pay attention to red flags. If it feels wrong it is wrong. Hopefully you are the only gal/guy this person is talking to?

But of course on line friendship survives!! You just gotta keep it alive. If you keep in touch, then the friendship stays alive. If you stop communicating, then the friendship dies. I know this from a few times of experience. Dude, I am not kidding when I say this, either, you are the longest I have kept in touch with solely over the computer. A little over 2 months already!! My longest before this was only for about 2 weeks. They stopped communication for some reason. Guess things got tiresome and they were starting to do other things for themselves.... You can stick to someone off the internet just like you do in real life. I have heard from several that some people they know personally actually married each other because they got along so well on the internet. Just like the dating sites. You find someone that you get along with over the computer. And then they meet each other after talking over the computer for quite some time.

Well.. It also happens to me.. I'm a person who talks to guys a lot online.. When I'm talking to someone for hours and getting to know him better, I feel like there's a connection between the two of us and that he's worth talking to. On the other hand, when I'm talking to other guys on here, I feel that I'm just wasting my time talking to them and that they're not worth talking to.. But yeah, Its hard when you meet people on the net because of the time difference and it's really hard to catch up with 'em when you're busy.. I am not really sure if my answer will help but yeah, I'm just sharing y'know.. =)

You can get really, really close to someone on the Internet very quickly. That is because both of you have your guard down and reveal things more quickly than you would in person. Also, there are no distractions, such as physical attributes. That is fine, you can fall in love with inner qualities rather than outer, but there is a problem. You do not know if the person you are talking to online is telling the truth or is just giving you the answers/information you want. Also, is it just that since you have to talk one at a time it makes that person a good listener. You do have to be careful, there are strange people out there. However, if you are careful then meet in public and have someone close by, money and a phone in case you need to exit.

Hey pheobe,\n\nIve actually use Craigslist a few times.  Once I received some pretty good head on one response.  Another time I met up with a cuban/black mix chick.  We went out to the movies, ate dinner out, and I spent the night.  Had nice long sex.  She was a big girl but so what.  Try it out.

I met the guy I'm dating on the internet. He lived 12 hours away and wanted to come and meet me after about 5 months. I was in college and my professors and friends told me to have him come to the school to meet me. That way there were plenty of other people there and they could give me their opinions of what they thought of him. Never meet anyone alone where there are no other people or anyone you know. It's been over three years since that day and we are still together.

I think that number one, the internet is a stupid place for dating someone or finding someone. You have to be patient and the right one will just come along. Dont expect to find the one on the net, Trust me.. I dated a guy that I met over yahoo msnger for like 3 years and he was a total ass and a mistake, NOT GOOD! There was things I didnt even know about him that he could hide from me for a long time and I probably wouldnt have ever found out! You dont really get to know the person when you meet them on the net.. they can be fake really easy! Id say that half the ppl that answer these questions on here are fake just to get points but you can only trust a selected few. But anyways dont net date... K!? Later and GOOD LUCK
