You really need to meet them before you make a decision. I've met a couple of people from online that ended up being completely different than the way they presented themselves. I've also met a few that we just didn't click in person. \n\nRegardless of when or how you decide to meet them, please play it safe and meet in a public place! There are a lot of psychos out there so better safe than sorry!\n\nGood luck to you!

I can say Yes.\nI am in love with him in the net for one and a half year and we plan to meet in 4 months, we are both excited about that. Though I have not met him yet, I do believe that I love with my true feelings and so does he. It doesnt matter you love someone in the net or off the net. I feel lucky to have such a nice guy thanks to the internet.

It is possible to find your soulmate on the internet, but be VERY CAREFUL. Some people are very deceitful and will prey upon those who will give them what they want... (like money or attention or sex). There are tons of stories online of people posing to be Russian women (and other nationalities) who do it just for the money and they disappear. \n\nFor the record, my wife and I are from different continents and we had to spend a great deal of time online years ago because we wouldn't have known each otherwise. But relationships take time and patience. We've been married five years and it's awesome how we got together. But I know not everyone is so lucky. \n\nJust know what you're getting into before you send any money or make travel arrangements. People can be who ever they want to be on the internet.

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.

there are TONS of stories of people meeting on the net, its been going on for longer than many realise. a friend of mine just celebrated her 5th wedding anniversary with the man she met on the internet. they also have two kids, she is a teacher, he is a chiropractor. dont sound like crazy people to me lol. i also know another woman who has been married the same amount of time and her husband moved from overseas to be with her, they have a daughter turning 4 next month. \n\nto me, its not really that different than how many relationships do or dont work out in 'real life'. if i count how many bfs i have had since i was 15, its over 30! so that means i have had 30 failed relationships so far and only one of them was met on the internet (but it still lasted 4 years and we had a daughter). out of the couples i know so far that met on the net and got married, not one of them is divorced. NOT ONE. yeah there is still time i suppose but other couples i know that met in person first have been married and divorced already, over half of them if i sit and count. so whats that say about the odds?

Fun? Doing what, typing on my keyboard? lol.. Seriously though? Yes I have dated via the internet. Never went further than it should have without meeting in person though, if you get my drift. I don't cyber.\nBut it's great, espec for someone like me. No time for dating losers, who just wanna go out with me b/c I am a Bitchin Gal or to ask me to pick up the check. In the use of a pre-date date, I totally recommend the internet. When you start to get into things a little too heavy though, watch out. It's like having a LongDistance relationship... And those are not for the faint of heart! Espec if one of you is NOT much of a typer lol..\nIn fact, my current B/F and I met online. Been dating what, 8 months now....  He's the best, and we are so well suited! (NOT Twins or anything, we just have common interests, ideals & goals etc)\n\nAnd all because of that Dastardly MySpace lol...!

If you and who you are corresponding to are upfront and honest I dont see why not. I know some very successful couples who have met on the net. Follow your intuition and just be careful the net like all places do have some "unusual" people who are best avoided.

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.

Yes!  My good friend chatted along time and talked on the phone for awhile.  Then they met.  Spent the weekend together..  Got married 6 months later.  Its been 9 yrs and still going strong.  I also know that my babysitter met her now husband on the net and they have been married for 5 yrs now and also still going strong.  And all had kids from different relationships and now both couples have a large extended family. Its been awesome for them all.  My private joke to them both is The Internet Love Family!  LOL

I have had very good success using the White Pages on-line.  I have been able to find people that I had lost contact with for years.  It is certainly worth a try it was for me.

My niece met a guy from england over the net and they have been married for 3 years now. Her brother also met a girl from Canada over the net and they have been married a year. So sometimes it does work out.
