Will you tell me about your experience with internet relstionships?

Answer 1

I dated several guys I met off the internet, and 90% of them were just trying to get laid, and 80% of those were kinda weird...The rest were decent, but not what I was looking for. Then I met my current bf online. We have been together almost 2 years now and just bought a condo together...so it just depends.

Answer 2

Actually my husband and I met online. He was from California and I was from Illinois. It was my senior year of high school and he flew out to meet me for my graduation and we've been together ever since. That was 6 years ago though. I think the internet is a lot more dangerous now than what it was then.

Before him there was one other man that I met and we had talked online as just friends for over a year. We debated everything you could imagine and built up a very strong friendship...I really cared for him a lot.

Answer 3

From my experience, they don't work. I've met two guys via the internet. The first one, I married and was miserable for four years! The second guy I dated for 3 months and we broke up over a misunderstanding on his part.....meeting people online is alot easier these days than meeting the 'old fashioned' way but I have not had a lasting relationship from meeting online. Maybe I just met the wrong ones, who knows?

Answer 4

My one and only internet relationship is great so far. My hubby and I will be celebrating our 1st year anniversary next month!

Although I used to talk to some guys online previously, I tried to be wise and skeptical all the time. It's better to be skeptical errr....safe than sorry... Plus, TRUTH WEEDS OUT NO MATTER WHAT.

I pulled a tactic to my hub on day one. I tried to catch him if he's lying so I asked for his digits right away (both home phone and mobile) with the intention of calling him in the middle of the night...You might hear "Hello Mrs. Smith speaking..." on the other line, you know what I mean?

He gave them right away without any excuses whatsoever. So I did call him. It turned out that he's really a true, honest, and well-mannered guy. Bonus points for me because he's a hot and yummy bachelor!

Answer 5

I currently have an email/ phone only friend never met he is in England and me USA over 3000 miles away. We met through "answers" both having difficult relationships and he sent me a message. I was hesitant to reply back to his first email but he is a great friend who really supports me and listens to me. Hopefully I do for him too. We also just joke around and tell each other what we are doing in our daily activities. I feel emotionally connected to him and we talk through email usually daily and calls once in awhile too but I would be scared to meet in person though for fear it might not be the same. Although I would like to.

Answer 6

I hold little faith in "Internet relationships"; aside from chatting with someone for a brief period of time. In the usual case, you may chat w/ a friend who may well live thousands of miles away.....then one day.....they're gone.

Why is simple: because 99% of the time, the other person is likely "reinvented"; not their true self. It starts with hiding their true selves to protect them from OFFLINE stalkers--and it likely mutates from there, taking a growing form of deceit all it's own.

That's pretty much the standard in most ALL such on-line relationships. And that's why it's a complete waste of $$$$ to buy website memberships into such pay for chat clubs or personals sites. Even the popular "E" one you see TV ads for.

Finding and keeping a long term close "Internet relationship" with someone is really akin to finding the winning lottery numbers and your real chances of finding someone are better OFF-LINE.

Answer 7

I have an "on-line" relationship too... in fact my girl has already answered here... Its strange, we have grown very close "on-line" we share many thoughts and ideas, she has helped me through a rough time, and i hope I help her.... Now we have a problem, and it's getting bigger, simple, can we make it real? I am scared to go meet her, in case she is disappointed and it would destroy what we already have... also, what if she isn't disappointed, it would be so hard to leave again and go back to "this".... it's a tough call, but the need is growing.... she's 3500 miles away in Michigan..

Answer 8

I met my husband over the Internet, we have been married for 3 years, have a 2 year old son together....he lived 4 hour form me, we met and have been together ever since!! If you do met someone from the Internet please be safe...there are some really weird guys/girls out there...

Answer 9

I never had one but a friend who was really close to me had an Internet relationship the wound up getting married and having a baby and living happily every after. I thought she was crazy but she said love and god guided her so I guess anything is possible.

Answer 10

My husband and I met online... we talked just as friends for over a year. The New York Mets were our shared interests - that's how we started talking. We ended up liking each other after we met in person.
