What are some of your thoughts about finding people online? In our society its more acceptable than it used to be, but I'm very slow to try it. I think reasonably its not a bad thing, because you are more likely to find someone you like online just because the user base is so huge.
Hi Cloudd, I met my husband online and find nothing bad about it. Finding your mate online is famous nowadays. I believed that nothing is wrong with it as long as you love each other and your intention is pure. But it does only apply for some people to have this kind of relationship work out. Not all single woman/man out there have a luck to find a good partner online and move on to a deeper and lifetime relationship. It needs patient, sincerity and trust. God bless
It is not easy but i think you can make it! Internet is just one of the ways for people to meet each other. You have to be careful because there are so many cheaters/liars nowadays on the internet. He said he was single but it might be he is a dad now! --- merged: May 31, 2011 at 6:14 AM --- Indeed! Luck concerns! Not all people could be as lucky as you are People have to be careful when it comes to finding partners online.
I've known a lot of people who are now married with their former virtual friends. But I am not totally convinced yet. I have some fears, but may be if I come to know him personally after spending sooo many hours online, things would be different. But saying, "Yes or I do" online is something I wouldn't do.
@ smile4u - Thank you for quoting my post. Actually, I will not push or encourage somebody to find a partner online. I agree with you, everybody needs to be careful if they consider to look for a partner virtually. We were having a hard time to know the person well that is in front of us how much more behind the screen. @ bright -light - That is a brilliant decision not to say " I do" online. I believed that it is always a still best choice to have a relationship which is not virtual. And if somebody decided to have an online relationship it must not be in a hurry. Know the person well. Check his/her background. Scrutinize, investigate and ask questions as much as possible. And in marrying somebody especially from other country, the main and first reason must be Love and not something else. To spend the rest of your life with that man or woman. Then, let him visit you in your country and meet your family.
@speedy, Hi! You are just one of those lucky dogs. I would say it is even difficult for us to find the real love nowadays in the real life, let alone on the internet. As you have made it. Cherish your husband and your happy life!
It is possible to find your partner online. I know a few people who met each other online and they are now married. Ofcourse it is acceptable.
Thankfully, I'm already happily taken. But, if I were available, I might consider meeting someone online. Though I would want to be careful about meeting them in person for the first time. I have heard many success stories but just as many horror stories about online matches.
It is possible to find someone online but it will be difficult since there are so many weirdos and perverts. Just be careful and don't believe everything they say to you. If it sounds to good to be true then it probably is.
I think majority of people nowadays are open for possibilities of internet relationship but I don't think I'll be looking for one.. I'll let it find me.. when I'm single but since atm I'm taken.. Its out of my vocab
I've done that a few times. Once was with a girl who lived far away, and another was a girl who lived nearby. With the girl who lived far away, I think it had more to do with the 'relationship' being safe and easy, since all I had to do was log in to my computer and chat for a few hours every day. Then I eventually went to go and live with her, which is when we realized we didn't have all that much in common, so I left after a few months. The girl who lived close wanted someone who would come over every day, and I wasn't feeling it, so it just fizzelled out. I think an internet relationship could work between the right people.
