It's not very realistic to think they can have a future together if they have no possibilities to travel to that other person's place and spend some real quality time together and get to know the person in real life as well.

 

well you can't really say that there's NO possibilities to travel either. I remember seeing people on gaiaonline.com way back when "going out" or "dating" and i thought that was the most stupid thing i've ever heard of in my entire life. how the hell is someone suppose to manage going out with a online character? you've got to be kidding me. And still to this day i think that's the dumbest thing ever.

 

And in my class last year, there was this person named Renae Cox who was "going to get married to this guy" who lives on the other side of America and while she was like, 14 years old and the guy was 21, i also thought that was VERY ignorant.

 

But, I found out that it's not TOTALLY bad having a long distance relationship (even though i know you've had them). It doesn't SEEM possible to love a person who lives a long distance away from you but feelings don't lie (normally). But I can't call it CYBER love. I think that it's more just the feeling of love that you have towards this person in which the only real way of communication is CYBERLY or through letters in the mail or even over the phone. I've never been happier dating online even though it still to me sounds idiotic (because you can never really GO OUT but it seems worth it to me((but that's just me))). But I guess dating online takes a lot of patience (and money). But it also takes hope. I mean, distance can't define your love for that person, distance should only be the obstacle that has to be over come. If you truly want that person, then i think you should go for it.

 

My personal opinion.

Oh well Cyberlove.There are so many so-called experts keep critising about it.But I don't think I will go with them.

 

There are surely so reasons why we pour a lot of 'love' on a untouchable(on body) person.It's quite easy for me to ignore some huge flaws of a person I meet online,even the flaw may be very offensive in common life.Sometimes we find that Internet is messy,but sometimes I found someone are really nice and I want to be friend of them.And I do think that love online is usually cheap.You don'y need to meet the other,don't need to bear the responsibilities of a common lover.Mostly there are only words.Only words to represent love.So as we become more discreet on love in real life,that's quite normal for someone to have a lot of 'love' online.We need to love smebody,that's good for our health.

 

OK my opinion is a little stupid...forgive me so...

well said Indy :pleased:

I really would like to be in Love....... !

My personal opinion.

 

you've got some good points there.

 

But when i see underaged people talking about how in love they're with this person who doesn't even live in the same country and they have to communicate in a language that's neither of theirs native language i just can't help thinking "geez.."

 

I'm not totally denying that there is a possibily to

1. Fall in love

2. Meet the person in real life

3. Get along in real life

4. Continue that relationship in real life

etc. But unfortunately that's just not how it goes usually.

 

I've actually myself made some great friends with people i've met online but i can't see myself "dating" someone online.. I'd rather be without a guy honestly :confused:

How do people date online, really? I mean how does the conversation go? Like do you use a lot of "*" to say that you're doing this at this time or another? Hehe

I just find it a bit odd. Dating is weird enough in real life let alone it being online!

 

But the love thing is fine, imo. I don't think a person would be able to help those feelings towards someone they care about wether it's online or not. Though it should take a longer time online to go ahead and admit these feelings to someone. So you'd be able to know them more, be sure of these feelings and what this other person is like.

Funny how this person appears to be an expert on somebody's love life when they're not the ones in their shoes. I mean, I could do that as well, saying that it's "bullshit" to fall in love with someone that they met at a social gathering. I mean.. how can you even date someone you met only then?

 

But it's not up to me to say that. If you have an opinion like that, keep it to yourself. Don't go saying it to other people and continue attacking them because they do something that is clearly different to what you prefer.

Why should anyone keep their personal opinion for themself, everyone is feel to express what they think. Besides i don't think the comment was personally aimed to anyone here, just in general for what i read and that's fine. However, that example didn't make much sense because it's totally different to meet someone in person at a party or any social gathering and actually get to know that person and why not, fall in love maybe ( love at first sight ,anyone?)than meeting someone online and fall in love the very first time you "chat" with that person, know what i mean?

and also you never know if the other person is lying and instead of being a 19 year old handsome and nice guy, is a 50 year old man :sick:

*cough* I'm 17 *cough* :laugh3::laugh3:

a 17 year old handsome and nice guy :lol:

 

 

OK of course rolle has the right to her own opinion but .. I dunno.. that just sounded a bit cruel :sad: . Saying that a long distance relationship wouldn't work because there's no physical contact is like saying that a relationship wouldn't work without sex. Love doesn't consist of just attraction ..it is pretty crucial but that doesn't mean meeting physically can't wait for a while. Really.. If you choose your love partner according to what they look like then most your relationships will end up being very unstable.

If you find someone you really end up loving (not "falling in love" cos that's somethin else)... even if it's online.. then you should go for it. I'm not saying "yea ..go head and live your entire life with your lover online" but if you know you have a chance to meet that person in the near future then.. why not??

I, myself, actually have an aunt who met someone online and they're now happily married.. so who's to say it can't happen? :)

fight the power ale. fight it. :P

a 17 year old handsome and nice guy :lol:

Yeah, I only corrected the age, but I should probably have corrected the handsome and nice bit as well! :P

 

 

And Amen to that ale! :)

Well, long distance relationships don't work most of the time and i'm not talking about internet dating but in general. Lets say you meet and nice guy/girl in real life and you've been dating for a while and then she/he has to move abroad for X reason , how can you make that work? Msn? phone calls? letters? All sounds great in theory but not having that person right there by your side and see that person everyday is painful.Besides, there are other facts we're not taking into account now like, how can you be sure that he/she is not seeing other people? There's no way you can know that and that person will probably prefer spending time with "real" people there than talking to you on the phone or on msn ,see what i mean? But of course that's not always the case, I know this girl from europe who is engaged to this guy she met online and who lives in the states and they travel to see each other every 3 months and spend like 3 weeks together and that's it. I mean, 3 weeks every 3 months and they're engaged? I'm sorry but that wouldn't work for me at all. Personally i wouldn't wanna start a long distance relationship but i'm all for meting friends i met online, that's totally different cos there's no romance involved before i even know them in person but i can say i actually consider some friends i made online like friends i know in real life and care about them.

 

And well for as shallow as this might sound,people actually feels attracted to others for the looks at first and probably would turn down another person who isn't really good looking ( even though that person might be very funny, sweet, honest etc) unless they get to know them( which might take a while in some cases)

 

But hey if people feel happy dating online, go for it! Personally, i prefer the real thing :wink3: Oh, and i'm saying all this in general, i don't know if any of you my fellow boardies are cyber dating but if so, i didn't mean to offend you in any way, just sharing my point of view. :nice:

 

 

Ps. A relationship doesn't work for me without sex mwhahaha :charming:
