My brother recently started "going out" (can you even say that?) with a girl he met online, and one of my friends is, too. That stuff actually happens? How can you fall in love with somebody you've never met? So I'm asking, would you get in a relationship with somebody you meet online, and are almost positive that they aren't lying about their identity (which is hard to do, I think)?
It's not even an actual relationship. There's one girl at my school who met a "boy" online, they fell in "love", then started to "date", and then the "boy" told her that they were actually a girl, so now the girl at my school claims she is a "lesbian".
I did, sort of. My advice - don't. [QUOTE="Taggsai"]

I guess it really depends on the person. Some girls really want to meet their boyfriend in real life and not online.
There is this Brazilian girl Angelica I saw on Youtube dancing with Felipe Dylon and also doing a video with her sister. She is really cute and from the first time I saw her I immediately developed an obsessive attraction to her. So I emailed her sister saying that I want to meet Angelica in real life.
Angelica emailed me back only once. This was a week ago but from what I understand now Angelica isn't interested in meeting me online but I think she wants me to come in person. The problem is that I'll never meet her in person because she lives in Portugal and I live in Israel. Also she didn't give me any contact details like her telephone number, her address or a place where I can meet her which makes me wonder if she is even interested in meeting me in person.
Anyway, yes many girls will not even talk to you online but rather want to meet their boyfriend in person.
Agree and Disagree. I don't believe internet relationships are based on physical attraction, in fact, since you don't see the person all that often (if at all) it must be that you're attracted to that person based on personality. The lack of face-to-face means one does't really judge based on physical appearances, but rather the conversations between the 2 people, which is where you would find more of the personality.hokies1313
But it's not only that. Many girls want real-life interaction. You see if you tell a girl you never met in real-life before on the internet that she's really cute and that you want her she may NOT believe you. But if you come and tell her that in person her reaction would be quite different because then she would see in your eyes, your voice and your body language that you really meant what you said. On the internet a girl has no way of knowing if what a guy says to her is real and if he really meant what he said.
I was in love with someone "over the internet" once, though it was more of us knowing each other in real life, but only really talked online for years. Eventually I got sick of it, and she was content for us to just be friends in our little IM boxes. That's my story, shortened to two sentences. :P Started waaaaay before GS, let alone before I was a mod...
Personally, I'd never do it. Nothing beats going to a coffee shop together and sorting out the world from a sofa, or giving flowers to them on the spur of the moment and seeing their face light up. No emoticon in the world could compare to that... Except maybe this: [spoiler] [/spoiler]
I already did. However, I would avoid doing it again unless it started with both and emotional and physical relationship. You can't just have the emotional, as both of us found out, we needed the physical.
I'd go for it but with caution. Also I would need to be sure we basically knew eachother. How we look and that it's really us. I know one of my girl friends found a boyfriend for herself through the interwebz.
