it's possible, but not very probable! you need to be extra careful when doing this too!!!

Considering that the Internet has ushered in a brand new way of meeting people "social networking," I would say yes. The Internet and all social networking sites have completely changed the way people are meeting each other and entering into relationships.
Like many others that have answered this question, I would advocate being extremely cautious before meeting anyone online. The Internet still affords some amount of anonymity, make sure that the person you met online is indeed telling the truth.
Here is a great article about finding "Mr. Wrong."

It could apply to both sexes.

I believe it is possible. I have been with my man for nearly 3 years. We met online through another friend. We love each other deeply and our relationship has worked out great. We communicate well and that is important. Though I must say an online relationship isn't for everyone. If you don't have the time and patience for one, DON'T DO IT. I know some people who did that and couldn't handle it, simply because they had no patience. I know others who were involved with people online, and they ended up meeting and getting married. So it is possible to have a great relationship once you have met the person, if you spent a great deal of time getting to know each other and there are no other surprises. Good luck to all of you who are involved in an online relationship!

Being the optimist that I am I truly believe that anything is possible. Even finding the one you were meant to be with. Sure the internet is full of people that lie, but what about the others that don't. What about the good hearted people on here. Unfortunately they are tossed in the same category as those who lie or just want sex. As for me, my personal experience with creating relationships online has been what people experience offline ( IE Bars, clubs,) Life is unpredictable and relationships are equally so. It can take you a lifetime to find the one you truly feel you were/are meant to be with. I met my soon to be wife on a website. Initially I was just looking to chat with people from back home. Came across her profile and send her a note...figured it would be nice to talk to nice, intelligent, independant woman from back home. She and I are going to be married on June 16 2007. Love can be found in the oddest places. I am glad that I didn't give up on looking..or perhaps it was looking for me.

I have personally seen it work out ( so far ) once out of 5 people that I know that met on the internet . But I imagine that if they met in a church it would probably be about the same . It doesn't really matter how you meet there are people that will lie and decieve you either on the net or in person and there are also nice guys ( and girls ) out there too.

I absolutley think this is possible...although I only talked to my husband for a week before meeting him...we were married 3 months later and that has nearly been 3 years ago.

I think if it is possible to have a relationship at all it would be possible to meet someone on line and have it work, since you have to meet somewhere. I dont know why it wouldnt work here if it works there.

I think it is possible, actually i know it is possible, because My now boyfriend and i talked all the time on the computer before we met in person. And we were great after that and ever since.

i am a living example of that. my bf and i have been together 4 years and he has been the best man i have ever had in my life. we're getting married soon and looking into buying a house.... i think if your comfortable and open minded, go for it. we talked online about 6 months before we actually met in person, but we shared many pics. and phone calls...
