Is it possible to find your soulmate on the internet?
343316
It is possible to find your "soulmate" anywhere.  There is no such thing, but there are people all over the world, just like you.  The secret to finding love lies in us, not in them.  When we are ready to drop our masks, reveal ourselves, and let that other person have the chance to say, "I see you," we give ourselves the chance to fall in love.\nThe biggest problem is that people on the internet often don't feel the need to tell people the truth, and often, that first lie or misrepresentation will make it impossible to feel safe enough to open up again to the person.  The opportunity dies.\n\nFind someone of integrity and ethics, share everything you have in common, and hide nothing.  See what happens.

I think there is someone for everyone and we as humans seldom find that one for us. We're fooled, though sometimes, and believe we have... I think that's the worst thing that can happen. When you do find your soul mate.... you'll come together magically... it wont be a simple thing... It will be a twist of fate... \n\nWe never have to make do... You should never stop looking either, because when you do... that's when they'll show up.

first of all it is hard, but what is harder is if you find the one you love does have personal profiles running! so think about that before you start digging.  I had a boyfriend that I too was wondering if he was running personals on line and so what I did was went to some different single sites and started searching them out.  most sites give you the chance to limit your search to age location smoking/non  I put in all his info and started searching.  I bet I found him at least five times.  I am no hacker and this takes time and yes it gets old. but If you have the feeling someone is running a personal and leaving you in the dark about it, chances are your right.  happy trails

Yes.  You can fall in love with someone over the internet.  It is like meeting a guy from a bar.  You really don't know what their intentions are or if they are who they claim to be.  Love is a risk.  You have to be willing to take that chance.  Don't live the rest of your life what if.  If you get your heart brok- so what, move on with life.  I did.  I used to talk to someone that I never met.  I was falling hard.  We talked about everything.  Then...poof kramarillo_1 was no more.  He disappeared.  I did not even have closure.  But I got over it.  I dust myself off and gave it another shot.  I started talking to this other dude.  He sounded mean when we spoke on the phone.  It sounded like he had no emotion in his voice.  He came by plane to see me.  After that...game over.  Soon after that, I was selling all I owned and traveling with only what could fit in my car to start a new life with him.  I truly feel like Cinderella.  I have never been more in love.  I remember when we started talking.......we would have 5 hour conversations and talk periodically throughout the day.  We could not get enough of each other.  Even though we were different in many ways.......we completed each other.  I am so glad I took that chance.  Just imagine if I listened to my friends and family.  I would probably be single and lonely once again.  I found my other half.  But you do have to be careful.  There are many crazy people out there.  By talking to this person on a regular basis the true side will reveal itself sooner or later.  I have experienced the most mannerable person turning into a complete stalker.  You will feel it.  You know what's good.  Good Luck.

I don't have a problem finding love over the internet. After all, I met my husband on the net.\n\nWhat I have a problem with is people who actively go looking on the internet. It's like putting your name in the personals in the newspaper. A sign of desperation. And last I looked desperation isn't a good thing.\n\nThe internet is also dangerous because people don't think when they meet someone on the net. They rush into it talking about how they met only a month ago and have talked for only a week over the phone and want to get married to this person. For some reason, if it's over the net, they don't want to wait until they actually get to know someone.\n\nMy husband and I have known each other for almost 9 years. We knew each other for over three years as friends over the net. Then we spent 5 and a half years "dating" going back and forth between our countries and talking on the phone for hours and hours every night for YEARS. \n\nWe've been married since June.\n\nMost people aren't willing to take the time it takes. It's not like meeting someone face to face. It's alot more dangerous and you don't have the ability to look at each other so you can rely on your own personal perception. \n\nPeople also aren't willing to wait until they're over that "honeymoon" phase of the relationship and work at the communication part. It's why most internet relationships fail. They can't handle the distance and work on the communication.\n\nEven my family, the people who were so sceptical in the beginning and advising me against getting involved with my husband. Even they have admitted that this is probably the healthiest relationship they've ever seen due to the level of communication he and I have. We can even finish each others sentences and yet we will find each other absolutely fascinating. Even after all this time.\n\nIf people would learn to be patient and take it slowly, I wouldn't say anything. But most people seem convinced they want to marry this person after speak to them for only a month or so over the internet. It's ridiculous.

I met my husband through match.com so anything is possible. Been married for 2 years now and still running strong. Good luck with it!

It does happen, but more often than not, it is doomed to failure.  I met my wife 9 years ago on the internet, but we used the time to truly get to know one another.  Neither one of us was looking for someone on there, we just met and we clicked.  Many people have tried the internet because every other option they have tried, has failed.  Many others like it because it is anonymous and they think they can lie about themselves.  Unfortunately for both people, in those situations, they often find out too late that they were not right for one another...often because of lies.  The internet can provide you with a wide variety of people from all over the world to choose from, unfortunately, there is often a reason people are looking on an anonymous place like the internet to find a mate.

Yes sure, it is possible to fall in love with someone online.  And it would be easier to hv one than in real life, while you just exchange words and thoughts with him/her without any physical attraction.  If both of you are true enough, it could be ended up with a beautiful relationship...

Yes, it's a problem.  No matter how close you think you're getting to a person on the internet, the rate of information exchange is really very low.  You are not actually getting to know the person, just how well he types.\n\nSo you (and everyone else for that matter) fill in the details with your imagination.  This is a problem because there is a tendency to romanticize, simplify and idealize things.  There's also a tendency to want to be Cinderella and experience the magic of meeting your prince.  This means that you are predisposed to see princes where none exist.\n\nSo you become infatuated with people that you probably should not and sometimes cannot have a relationship with.  I mean, what are you really going to do with a guy who lives on another continent?\n\nThat hurts you in two ways:  first, you suffer all of the loss and disappointment when you realize this guy isn't for you.  Second, the time you spend infatuated with internet guy is time you could have been spending meeting actual people in your area who there really is a chance with.  You've lost all that time.\n\nI met my wife on the internet.  But I was looking only for people who lived near me (she was 10 minutes away) and who I could meet for real within just a few days.  I also met about 30 women to whom I most decidedly did not marry. \n\nThe internet is a tool.  It's not a replacement for your real life.

I hear people find 'true love' on internet dating sites. A lot of people have bad experiences, too. Match.com has a good reputation. In the UK, there's also:\n\nhttp://www.singlesclub.co.uk/\nhttp://datingdirect.com\nhttp://flirtbox.co.uk

Yes, people can fall in love online. Does it work out? Sometimes. My brother and sister-in-law met in a chat room, about ten years ago. They have been married since 1998 and have 2 kids.\n\nSometimes they are worth it. Sometimes they are not. You really can't get a definite answer with this question. If both people are willing to put into the relationship by treating each other with respect, trust, honesty, understanding, and the willingness to compromise and communicate thoughts and feelings openly, then things have a high chance of working out.\n\nThough sometimes the most perfect matches don't work out. Other things get in the way, like time and distance. It's up to the two people involved to judge whether it's worth it to continue. But I think it's worth giving it a try.

Big ne.  Personally I think you have to be pretty deperate to go to the internet to find a BF/GF.  Somehow I dobut God wanted the internet to be used for dating.  I mean, your soulmate could easily be right in front of you and you MISS the chance to be with them but then you meet a so-called SO on the internet.  So in my opinion, only despearte people come to the internet for their so called love.  How can it be real?  Its not its fake.  There's an old saying, "Don't look for love, let it find you."

I have.  We met through an internet dating site.  We corresponded through email at first, then on the phone, and a short time later we met in person.  Not long after, we fell in love.\n\nI have every reason to believe this relationship is going all the way.  House, marriage, kids...  and he would agree completely.\n\nHere's some tips if you're seeking love through the net:  \n-Be completely honest.  \n-Don't waste time pretending to be someone or something you're not.  \n-If the person you're chatting with doesn't seem to be everything you're looking for, don't waste time giving them a chance (I know it sounds mean, but how much time do you have to waste anyway?)\n\nNever settle for anything less than what you deserve.

Not on the net because you never know what you are getting until it's too late. Just seek someone with the same interest as you, someone down to earth,. And take your time getting to know this person, build your trust with this person, and most importantly, show your love to this person.  Don't rush things and if its meant to be you will indeed have found your partner for life someone you can be with and relate to.
