Is internet love really possible?

Question

I have a bf for a couple of months. things arent happy. i met someone online and i talked to him everyday. im developing feelings. is that possible to fall in love with him? what if i met him and the feeling didnt change?

we send pictures to each other once in a while and we use the webcam/voice while chatting

Answer 1

Firstly, talk to your bf and get things right. If you're unhappy then be honest, he might be feeling the same too. You just need to break the ice... On the other hand... Internet love? maybe it's not love yet. maybe you're just unhappy and you are looking for someone to fill the void. Developing feelings i think is possible but it's some kind of a love that hasnt grown. You need to see the person and hang out with him to confirm what you feel. I just hope he's showing you his true self, and not some dirty guy looking for someone to screw hehe. Sometimes, the connection and personality contribute to develop a feeling (whatever it is). Maybe you will like him but love? how do you define it by the way? Then when you meet, feelings might change if he's different than what you've expected. Better or worse, if you really have fallen in love, it won't matter. Damn love! After that it's up to you how far would you go to make it work esp. if he belongs to a different time zone. haha! that i think is more difficult to answer than the love thing...
Just be cautious and before going into another, fix the bf problem first. Good luck!

Answer 2

I had the same experience-but with someone I'd never met but who hired me as a freelancer. After two weeks of emails discussing work we ended up on the phone all the time, and I couldn't stop thinking about him. I was in a mediocre relationship at the time and ended it to follow my heart. We've now been dating 8 months and see each other as often as we can! It's long distance but we're madly in love. One thing though, have you spoken on the phone yet? If you're still drawn to him after phone conversations I'd follow through. I really believe you know deep inside if it's worth meeting...if not at least you took a chance. Just be careful to meet him in a public place etc... If that doesn't work try something like www.meetmoi.com next time-where you can chat on your cell & text and meet up as soon as you like so there's no crazy guess work. Good Luck with it!!

Answer 3

personally i don't see how when you don't really know if everything someone is telling you on here is the truth. It is easy for people on the internet to tell you things you want to hear because they don't really know you in person. Alot of times people think they will tell you this, it isn't like you will ever know because it isn't like we will ever meet.If he has sent you pics on here of him, how do you know they are really him? They could be of a brother or a friend. And it is never safe to meet someone online in person unless you tell a friend or relative that you are going to go meet whoever his name is and tell them the place and time. And meet him in a public crowded place. That way if he turns out to be a psycho or not what you have expected then you don't have to worry about being alone with him. Also, after talking to him for an hour or so I would make a point to call your friend or relative to let them know you are ok. Then again if he isn't what you expected you can hang up the phone and act like you have to go your friend or relative needs you for some reason.

Answer 4

Yes it is possible. But I suggest getting tons of pictures from him, talking on the phone for several months before even thinking about meeting him in person to be on the safe side. He could be cool and all what you want him to be or could be totally different and lying to you on the net. It happens, take your chances. If you are not happy in your relationship right now, need to end it, since you are looking else where like the net.

Answer 5

I think you can develop an attraction ( like or love ) for his mind.

Only 2 months with the other guy + not happy? Oh no. Not good.
Why not arrange a meeting in a public place with the online guy?
Couldn't hurt.

Answer 6

things aren't happy is the catch phrase. on-line feelings? feelings are feelings! if you are intrigued, be cautious. your choices are already questionable because where you are in present relationship. yes, you can develop feelings, you just said so, trust is different. do you believe you are getting honesty on-line?
you can definitely fall in love with a dream. only you can know if your chat is worth the risk. but the present relationship should end.
your looking, therefore it can't be what you want...
good luck, I hope it works out for you, but again, be cautious.

Answer 7

I thought so at one point not too long ago. It didn't work out for me personally. But I'm not saying it never works out; I know of plenty of people who have found love online. Give it a try, you've got nothing to lose. It's just another modern way of meeting people. Good luck. ☺

Answer 8

its possible YES, but its not practical...think about it...you dont know anything about the person at the other end of the connection....for all you know you could be talking to a 50 year old serial rapist/killer that is planning on making you victim # 35 or something, you've got to be very very VERY careful when it comes to the net and relationships...and if its that bad of a relationship why dont you just get rid of the moron and find someone better?

Answer 9

meeting people off the internet is not always safe. if you decide to meet someone you are taking a big chance. but....my mom talked for a few months to a guy on the internet and they decided to meet because they both felt that they were in love, and they are living together now, and my mom is the happiest that she has ever been, and they are both perfect for eachother. but remember, have you heard about all those people that have been murdered from meeting people from the internet. please be careful.

Answer 10

it is possible. Although, cautions should be taken. Don't take it too seriously just yet, especially if you have not met him. Take things easily and if you guys decide to meet, it's best to go with someone who can look out for you. Good luck with this new adventure!
