Is it Possible to Find Love on the Internet?

[cleosizzles]

Hiya
Yep I truly believe that you can find love on the internet, for I am living proof of this.
The guy I am living with (and my 2 kids) I met on the net, at xmas we will have been together for 3 years, and I love him to bits. The way I look at it is if I didnt have a computer I certainly would not be as happy as I am now. It was a big change for me and my kids when we first moved here, they started different schools, etc,but we soon got the hang of things, and we are all totally settled now.
He is certainly the best thing that has ever happened for me, and I would never want to be without him. Love you sweetie xx

I think probably the best bet is to find people in forums or discussion areas about things you really love and are passionate about.
Not necessarily go to matching sites.

Everyone I know who met their partner on the net has met them in a forum about science fiction, travel, etc.

Hell a friend of mine met her husband when he replied to her question about feline asthma on a vet forum!

You know not SO LONG AGO people used to write letters to each other.
Long rambling letters about life and love, and a bunch of Victorian bullshit like that. So yeah, love letters and courtship through the written word has probably been going on since some bastard figured out how to make marks in clay.

There is nothing new under the sun.

I am currently hoping that the answer to this is yes as 3 and a half weeks ago I met Amy on a dating website, and within a ady or two were chatting for hours every night on the phone. Having really hit it off over the phone I went down there (I live in Yorkshire - Huddersfield, and she is in Nuneaton nr Brum) the weekend before last to stay with here for the weekend - risky I know but had a really good feeling that we would have fun. When got there blown away - different person to the fantasy I'd built up on the phone and so much better - a real complete individual as fucked up as me but yet perfect for me in so many ways, as well as the sex being mind blowing.
She comes up to stay with me over Xmas and we're already talking about her leaving her friends and family behind and moving up here by the end of Jan. Scares the shit out of me for things to be happening so quickly, but cant deny the way i'm feeling towards her and she is saying the same - yes, we've bth been players in the past, but I really think we've both suddenly been hit straught between the eyes by cupids arrow and found exactly what we were both looking for.
On the other hand I could be about to get fucked over and screwed big time by a clever bitch, in the worst case scenario!
At the end of the day though sometimes you have to bite the bullet and go for what you want in life and take a chance on how you feel about a situation - so as I say at the moment i would say yes you can find love on the net but I could be wrong at this stage and be about to be made a fool of!

My best mate has been friends with a guy from a chat room for over a year, they met 3 months ago for the first time and are now smitten with each other. Whether it will work out long term though is another matter.

Wow, just reread that post from mid-Dec and felt the need to update.

Ami moved in after I asked her to on Xmas day and, aside from a trip down Nuneaton to get her stuff, has been living with me ever since.

Think its about coming up to two months now and we're still going strong and definately very much in love - so so far so good and all I can say in answer to the original question is yes, but only if both parties are 100% honest when chatting over the net to start with and resist the temptation to bullshit and tell people what they want to hear.

[BabyGirlMiza]

I agree with the last comment.. it is true, Your able to fall inlove on the internet aslong as both parties put 100% into it.
My best friend, she met her fiance on the internet, they wer together around 5months b4 they actually met.
My friend says when you fall inlove on the net its good cause you fall inlove with the person for who they are and not for their body n looks.

[priv8green]

just search "love" on google

Definately, and because at the end of the day at first its just a voice on the phone or text on a screen in some ways its easier to be yourself and be completely honest as at the end of the day if you dont get responses that suggest the other person is of a likemind or willing to accept what your saying then you can just cut the contact at any point without any real loss as no real world contact has been made yet - that gives you the freedom to be truthful from the start without really worrying too much what the other person thinks in a sense.

If both parties are doing that and being 100% honest about themselves then for me thats a really good place to start the relationship from.

i think it possible to find love i did neways i was with my partner 4 a yr lol nd i ment him on this site called bebo lol xxxx

[AnnaMolly]

I think that you can't tell who you are going to meet but then I suppose that's the case in "reality" or whatevers the opposite of the internet...you get your fair share of wankers, creeps, perverts and the occasional good one.

I think it's harder to find love over the internet because when I talk to people it doesnt feel real...msn conversation are just like talking to a box! But I have however connected with people I have met breifly in real life on the internet and although you do get to know people for their personality rather than their looks when you read something you might take it differently than how they mean it because you can't hear the emotion or facial expression. I suppose it's hard getting to know somebody when they aren't physically there especially since it goes against the things that scientifically attract us to each other...i think it's possible to like somebody alot and perhaps think your in love with somebody over the internet but I think it does take people to meet eventually to make it real and turn into a serious long term relationship.


God i ramble.

RIGHT GUYS AND GIRLS....

THERE IS A REAL STIGMA ATTACHED TO INTERNET DATING AND I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT TO MET SOMEONE OVER THE NET IS WEIRD AND THAT PEOPLE WHO DO IT ARE WEIRD, BUT..................

1 - MY DAD, MET HIS WIFE OF 9 YEARS ON THE NET, NOT ON A DATING SITE OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, JUST A FORUM, SHE WAS ASKING FOR HELP RE HER COMPUTER AND MY DAD HELPED HER OUT, IT LEAD ON FROM THERE!

2 - MY BROTHER MET HIS FIANCE OF 2 YEARS ON THE NET TOO, ON A SITE LIKE THIS, SOME PARTY SITE. SHE WAS IN LONDON HE WAS IN THE NORTH, THEY NOW BOTH LIVE TOGETHER IN A SEASIDE TOWN IN THE NORTH!

3 - MY STEP BROTHER IS 35 AND HIS WIFE LEFT HIM, HE IS USING A DATING SITE AND THOROUGHLY ENJOYING IT! HE WAS FINDING IT HARD TO GET OUT AS ALL HIS FRIENDS ARE MARRIED WITH KIDS. ITS LIKE A NEW LEASE OF LIFE FOR HIM AND HE SO MUCH HAPPIER!!

NOW, WE ARE NOT A WEIRD FAMILY AT ALL AND SO MY VIEW HAS SLIGHTLY CHANGED. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WHO DO LIE AND I AM SURE THERE ARE SOME THAT DON'T. ITS NOT FOR ME, BUT ABOVE IS THE PROOF THAT IT DOES WORK.

[timid rabbit]

i meet someone on the net we had a great time on there , we meet up, things were really good for a bit, but we had so many different views on certain subjects it became clear we weren't meant to be, but i believe you can

[new_girl_in_town]

yea if they say who they really are yh totally

[tarifa]

anything's possible surely?

[LunaStorm]

Love can be found anywhere... coz its everywhere... the trick is opening your heart to accept it

I met a nice lass off of the net last year we realy liked each other n got on like a house on fire but we lived to far apart and I was to busy so she ended it. Shame but there you go.

[lilmstrixta]

I met my fella on the net, was seeing someone else at the time we talked for ages about all sorts of shite things didnt work out with the lad i was seeing at the time so i asked matt if he fancied coming watching man u game that was 2 and a hlf years ago on the 14 and i seriously wouldn't wanna be with ne1 else. i love him to bits and i know if i had met him out at the pub or whateva i wouldn't have got with him as he is quite quiet

[DJCliffy]

It is possible to find love on the internet. I found a thai bride website and have ordered my new love for 3429pounds. Who says love is dead eh!

[Sini]

I have a blow up sheep and i love him so much it hurts

[MisterDuck]

it is possible

but its not a likely method

[rachus]

i totally think so, its different for everyone but if your honest with them and they with you then its possible.
i met my first boyfriend on the net, we dated long-distance for 2 n half years, he was amazing and we made it work.
6 years down the line he is still one of my fondest friends :)

I agree with you. If you are serious and honest then you definitely can find out your love online. As per my point of view singles from across the world using internet dating so you may have better chances to find your perfect match. You need honesty, understanding, and patience to make this kind of relationship precious.

I was using an internet dating site (okcupid.com) and I found my match last year and we have good relationship till date.
