Is it right for people to date online? especially if it is a long distance relatonship? My friend is dating someone over the internet. She's 13 and he's 16? Is it wrong for them to love eachother and yet they have never meet? Felt eachothers heat beat?

About a month ago, I met the most wonderful woman in the world! But, I met her online. We both have feelings for each other, we love each other, and we have talked about it. But we are not officially dating. We are planning on meeting in person this January, and we are planning on dating! But we have agreed that we won't date until we meet.
Meeting someone online shouldn't automatically disqualify them from being datable. But you should meet the person first, in person, in a public place, and with both of you bringing a friend along. Someone should know where you are, where you're going, and what you're doing. I know a couple who met online who are now married and expecting a baby very soon! But I also know people who have had bad experiences in online dating, some very bad. But, I know just as many people in both of these catagories who dated the regular way too. Dating someone you meet online can be a good thing, but you have to be careful.
That all being said, none of the above applies to 13 and 16 year olds. People under 18 have no buisiness dating online in most cases. At very least, any minor meeting someone they met online should be accompanied by a parent, if not both parents, and they should never go to meet someone over 18.

They're a bit to young to have a long distance relationship. Its even hard for adults to maintain a good long distance relationship. Its tough and it won't be good for two young kids. Have them keep the other's contact info so they can't see if they're still right for eachother when she becomes 18 years old. But when it comes to dating, they should stick with friends in their own area for now.

If she is 13, then its very early for her to get into a long distance relationship, esp with a guy who is 3 yrs older. 13 is an age of raging hormones and everyone wants to be with someone !! Its just infatuation and kids are very vulnerable. Also, online dating can be dangerous, and when you are 13.. do you think you can judge people correctly?

People can date whenever/wherever works for them. Is it a good idea? Probably not. LDR good idea? Probably not.
Since she's 13 and he's 16, it's probably BETTER that it's long distance.
Sure it's okay to love someone else (even if it's "puppy love").
Felt each other's heat beat? What the heck is a heat beat?

Now with all the drama on line you may feel you have a connection but what if the connection is been made up?
Are we sure we are speaking to the person they claim to be.They can't say that is love because they have never met and it might not be true what each other are claiming to be.

i dont see a prob with it, people can form a relationship online. IMing, sending pics, stuff like that and eventually meeting each other in person. But you would have to make sure you each want the same thing. If you want a real one with only him, gotta find out if he wants the same

dating online and meeting someone from online are 2 diff things.
I met my last bf from online dating. we hit off right away, and before i knew it i was in love. we were "together" for awhile seeing each other as often as we could, but had to end it b/c of our kid situation...otherwise I would be with him now and not in TX...we met after 2months of talking and it was like we knew each other forever...we still talk and still have feelings for each other...now at 13 and 16....i dont think its possible...its the idea of it they are in love with.....its very easy to get attached emotionally and therefore you think you are "in love"

It's not love-love it's more there obsessed with the idea of being in love then being in love. It's like people that are in-love with the ideal of falling in love, but have no clue when it comes to love. It will not work out to be honest something will happen with them one will find another one.

Sorry but that is way too young to be dating...Not possible to fall in love without meeting the person face to face.

hmm.. i dun think so itz wrong.. but wat actually are they getting from it?? they will miz alot of things in love life if they focus on a relationship wich is logically made impossible.. and the worst thing is that they haven even meet yet.. how truthful can they be to each oder?? so according to my point of view, put the feelings aside 1st and focuz on meeting 1st.
