Boy, can I relate!  I am from NY and my fiance is from Ohio.  We talked for a year online, then met in person.  We dated exclusively from that point on.  Granted, we only saw each other about one weekend a month, he proposed almost 2 years after we started officially dating, and a year later I moved to Ohio.  (that was in january)  We've been together a little over 3 years and are getting married next week.  So, it can work, however, you're not engaged yet in my opinion.  You definately HAVE to meet the person and get to know the real person before you make that kind of lifelong commitment.  I've run across a lot of guys online that weren't who they said they were, so it is VERY important to get to know the real person first.  Good luck!

Yes.  I found my one true love online, its hard though, cause he lives in NC and I'm in PA, but we do like each other and hope to meet.  We talk online, use the web cam, talk on the phone.  There are so many more people out there and I absolutely believe there is that one person meant for you.  Why not try online?  Nothing wrong with that.

I DEFINITELY agree...Im also attached to it for personal reasons as well....that's how I met my fiance 6 years ago....I in Chicago...he in Scotland, UK. If it wasnt for Yahoo, we probably would have never met.

That's how I met my husband and a few friends.\n\nThere's no shame in meeting people over the internet if you're careful. It DOES open many, many doors!

Hi.. Josie .. how are you?\nHope you remember me.\n\nDowry marriage is still existing in many parts of India. But the percentage is really decreased. The people are not demanding nowadays. But ther are happily accepting whatever the bride's father offers.\n\nI hope this trend will go soon.\n\nHowever this is not applicable for love marriages.

I've been on-line since before the WWW existed, and two of my four major life relationships started on-line. I met my husband on-line in 1999 (married in 2001), and I truly believe that I am blessed to have found someone so ridiculously perfect for me.\n\nI've also done the stupid thing and thought I "loved" a guy I met on-line when I really didn't. That was when I was 14, so I would've been more prone to rash decisions way back when. :)\n\nStill, I learned from that experience that meeting IN PERSON is necessary to prove any relationship formed initially on-line. I think you can get a good sense of how well-suited you are to someone from an on-line relationship, but only meeting face-to-face can tell you whether you have chemistry and can be in a physical relationship as well.

Not true....long distance CAN work. Ive seen on a few occasions already that the couple is now married, happy and even have a child together.\n\nIt can happen, but I would take it a step at a time. 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.

Yes it is very possible to fall in love online. I am a living witness!!

Ah, yes, I believe so..Love doesn't merely consist of the physical, especially if you are young.  It's importantly based on communication...just like a relationship with God for example.  If two people are to have a relationship, they must communicate or the relationship will break down...that's the only way you can have a relationship with God; Is to talk to Him (pray, read the Bible, church). ASSUMING that you're communicating some way with this person is a good foundation for a relationship.  If it's through the net, then, I think that's different because people mask who they are alot of times and have false identities, personalities, etc. and really aren't anything like the person they portray on the computer. This is not good.  If you have met this person one time or another and the relationship has blossomed from there and it's a long-distance relationship, then I'd say, GO FOR IT.  I've seen many enriching long-distance relationships turn into great marriages.  Good luck!

You can also send eachother flowers and shop for gifts for eachother.\nJust be imaginative.\nAnd enjoy your online courtship!!\nAll the best!!

Only one online dating service has released statistics on marriages and that is eHarmony. They commissioned a study to find out how many of their members got married in a one year period. The result of the Harris study showed that 33,000 eHarmony members got married.\n\nRelationships sites like chemistry.com and eharmony.com tend to be more marriage-minded. They are for singles ready to make a long term commitment. Sites like Match.com, Yahoo! Personals, LavaLife, American Singles, Date.com, etc. tend to be more aimed at dating in general. They allow you to select from their entire member database whereas relationship services create the matches for you.\n\nThe largest sites tend to be Yahoo! Personals, eHarmony, and Match.com.\n\nSo decide what you want then check out some of those services. Good luck to you!
