They can fall in love on personal level, but not the physical level.
Say you are chatting with a great guy, 23, tall and sweet - but then you go to meet him and he says he is really a 54 year old lesbian with nothing better to do.
There can be an attacment mentally, but it can't be proven until the two meet in person.

I actually dated a few women that I met from the Internet in the past so I can answer this for you. Yes, I did fall in love with one or two girls before through writing alot and having lots in common before meeting. However, when we met it just wasn't the same and didn't last. However, I did meet some good women and had a few good relationships. It could be possible in your case. I have had friends and acquaintances who fell in love over the Internet and it actually did transfer into a real love as they have been together for a while. It is very possible. Good Luck.

I believe you can but it's always good to meet the person and get to know one another when I was 17 I met my husband on the Internet he messaged me through the yahoo messenger we talked for a couple of months then I asked him where he lived at come to find out he lived down the road from me after I found that out we met up with eacother and started hanging out as time went on we got to know eachother better and better and before I knew it we were so into eachother when I saw him on the webcam on the messenger I was head over heels but I wanted to get to know him so now I'm 22 and he's 24 and we've been married for 4 years and we have a boy and girl we have a great life together so I believe it can happen

Love is a poorly defined concept that arouses strong emotions. But where do these emotions come from?... your head!!! When we "feel" love, it's actually a sequence of chemicals released in the brain (hormones) – I believe the main one is called Serotonin. These chemicals may be released due to external stimuli such as touch, sight, smell, and internal ones involving past memories or fantasies.
So if someone over the Internet say the right things and/or sends what you perceive to be "attractive pictures" I think it is possible to form a "relationship" with them that may be stronger than a "face-to-face".
Note: "True Love" would be a whole different discussion.

Maybe. I mean. what is love? do you have to see the other person to be in love with them? does that mean two blind people can't be in love? You could, if you're both being honest online. But that's where the concept of online love falls apart. You don't know if the other person is being honest. Most online "love affairs" fall apart when the two people finally met because they find out the other person isn't quite what they said.

Come on now, I hardly even know ya. I will say yes, but once you actually meet and get to know the actual person things might change in a hurry. I say this because we imagine a certain mental picture of how he/she looks, acts, dresses etc. and build it up until your thinking you've met your soul mate, perfect match, snuggle bunny and when they fail to meet your expectancy, which they no doubt will, it becomes quite awkward. I am sure once in a while things work out for people, but don't get your hopes up too high. Best of luck.

Dear Ms. Pine,
Ugggggg....there is no way that two people can NOT meet, and fall in love. The internet was designed as a tool for information. There is no way to "reach out and touch someone" through digital data. Love is somthing that must be felt and experienced by two people. In order to do that there must be a reasonable sence of proximity. Please do not take this feeling of curiosity, anxiety, or lust to be love!!!
I wish you well, (and you are way hot!!! by the way!!!)
Huggs and Kisses,,,,
Lonnie

Definitions of love vary.
Love: agape? (god's love, parent's love towards offspring)Never. Near impossible to achieve agape with anyone by trying.
Love: eros? (sexual desire)
Ya. People can become infatuated with "ideals" that they create of each other...
Love: philia (brotherly love, friendship)
Of course. Good friends aren't made very easily but it's far from impossible.
Modern romantic love returns to Aristotle's version of the special love two people find in each other's virtues-one soul and two bodies, as he puts it.
I suppose this is possible if you talk to them a lot, and have various methods of communication. (i.e. not just seeing webchat.)
In the future more specific questions would help :)
