I have never believed that you can develop genuine love for a person without any contact beyond the internet. Affection, yes. A desire to learn more about a person that could lead to love in the right circumstances, yes. But there is just too much about a person that can not be adequately conveyed via the internet to develop love, and thus, I'd be lying if I said I had developed such feelings for any person I've met online, seeing as I haven't met any of them in person.

I don't believe in them at all. In fact I even refuse to confess my feelings to a girl I haven't seen in a while but have been talking to through myspace over the internet. Haven't managed to get any plans to see eachother yet though which sucks...

[QUOTE="AtomicBaconBits"]It's nearly impossible to truly love someone over the internet.Japanese_Jade

I'd like to second that but thats been proven wrong by a good number. Believe it or not, there are people who do find true love over the internet. I find it hard to believe myself that you and conencidentally your true love posts up love searches on eharmony for love to find each other.

What they are searching for (and sometimes find) is compatibility. It's certainly possible to develop a deep friendship over the internet. But love? I think a lot of people use this term a little too loosely, confusing love with friendship.

Never had an internet relationship.

A relationship isn't a relationship without physical interaction. At the very most, a "relationship" on the internet is emotional attachment.

, confusing love with friendship.

I certainly agree the love is overused...but love is simply a state of mind. If you think you are in love then you are. It may not have a basis in reality to sustain it...but it's still the illusion.

I disagree...there is not such thing as "true love". Love is an illusion created in the mind. Therefore, it's real. What is necessary for love to succeed is things like friendship, compatibility and commitment.

Actually that's what I meant.I should have rephrased it.

The amount commintment one has to make for 'love' is to high for some to comprehend...also love gets mixed up with lust many times these days.

Basically, you're all saying that love can not be dfined, yet it is a strong emotional attachment, friendship, act of commitment etc etc, all of which CAN be ahcieved over the internet. Love can easily transcend media, with the internet it's far easier. You have chat, email, audi and visual conversations. The only thing missing is touch, and touch=/=love.

Define love. Love is different for everybody.

Indeed it is. I like the first dictionary definition of love - a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person. But it is not the definition of love which is in question here, but rather the definition of 'profound' and 'passionate.' Many people say they are in love when they feel sexually attracted to a person and develop the subsequent feelings of attachment. They say they are in love because they are married. In an online setting, they say they are in love when they feel compelled to connect with a person on a daily basis. But in all these instances, the 'love' is more about receiving than it is about giving. They wish to experience gratification for themselves through interaction with the individual they love, and as such, it is not so much the individual they love as it is the experiences.

Profound, passionate affection is not about taking, but rather giving. Ask people in 'love' if they would sacrifice their own pleasure to provide it to someone else, and the TRUTHFUL response to that question will likely demonstrate whether the love is profound and passionate. Most anybody will answer yes to that question, but only in truly loving relationships would a person follow through, and in that respect, most people are lying to themselves when they answer yes. If you carefully inspect the nature of the interactions between people you know well who claim to be in love (or maybe even in your own relationships), maybe you'll see what I'm getting at here.

If both individuals in a relationship feel an impulsive need to provide fulfillment to their partner without expecting something in return, that is a loving relationship. That is also a kind of relationship you seldom encounter... but guess what - it's also one of the few kinds of relationships that remain fulfilling for their entire duration. I wonder why that is...

Theoretically, yes. And I'm sure some people have indeed developed loving relationships online. But don't lie to yourself - you're missing more than just touch in an online relationship. What you're really missing is common experiences. That's something that is nearly impossible to re-create over the internet, but it's one of the fundamental ways by which a person shares and learns to share with another.

i've kinda had one, she lived far away, but went to the same school as my best friend (they go to a school downtown, its like a really really hard one to get in), i was talking to her on AIM alot, and we were "into" eachother, i meet up with her, made out once or twice...then she dumped me :D

i always say "whatever floats your boat"
