well,i haven't,but i know lots of people who did,but there are lots of things u can't know unless u communicate with him, body language is important,so if ur relationship started by chatting and ur serious about it,then keep it real,phone calls and dates..chat alone can be deceiving sometimes..good luck

My fiance and i met online. I answered his personal ad on Love@aol. He lived a couple cities over and for the first couple years we would spend weekends at each others houses and just chat online every other night. 3 years ago we bought a house together, and a couple months ago he proposed and we get married next year. 5 1/2 years later we are stronger than ever.
i think meeting online has a unique advantage in getting to know someone. you get to know the real person (provided they are truthful) without all the physical distractions in the beginning. when we met a week or two later, the attraction was instant, and even though we had only just met physically, we knew so much of each other already. i would do it again, but blessedly, i don't ever have to. i found an amazing guy.

I am so embarrassed to tell the story, that I made one up. My fiance thought I was someone else when he added me to IM 6 years ago, we ended up IMing all the time, then we talked on the phone. We became best friends. I called him for everything, about boyfriends, health whatever. I never told anyone how we met, my mom would've killed me, lol. We finally met in person April 28th, and he purposed, I said yes. I moved across the country a week later and have been living with him ever since. My family loves him, his family likes me, he is the best guy a women could ask for, treats me great. I am still scared to tell my family how we met though, even though he told his. Unfortunately, I am finding myself not so into him intimately. I am scared of losing him as my best friend if I back out. I keep trying to tell myself that when we are old it will be good that I married someone who loves me so much. I just haven't gotten over my ex yet I guess. Hopefully it all works out and no one gets hurt. haha, there's a crazy story for ya.

As horrible as it sounds, I did. While in college, my friend and I, who were bored, decided that we would each put a profile up in yahoo personals. So we did this, then got caught up with the normal college life and had completely forgot about it. Then one day I was chatting with some friends when I got this random I'M from this guy who I didn't know. Since I enjoyed 'messing' with people on-line and I am a nice person, I said hi. We had a great conversation, talked for several days and without thinking of how stupid it was, I gave him my cell phone number. And then he would send me text messages and what not. Finally I gave in and said I would meet him. We met and talked for an our in the mall parking lot. Then we parted ways and a few days later he asked if he could take me on a 'real' date. I agreed, however, in the days leading up to the date, I kept trying to think of ways to get out of it, just didn't want to go. But for some reason I went and couldn't have been happier. Fell in love with him and now we've been married for almost 2 years. I am sorta embarrassed in how we met, but wouldn't change meeting him for the world.
I know you didn't ask for a story, but I thought I'd share. Sorry.

I met my husband online in a chat room. We talked on there for about 3 weeks and then exchanged phone numbers and talked for hours and hours at a time for about 2 weeks and then met in person on September 21, 2005 and got engaged September 26 2005 and got married November 26, 2006. (Wow! lol) But chatting can give you an unbiased connection! Just be careful on who you allow into your heart! I wish you the best of luck in the future! I am sure you'll find your mr./mrs. right! ~ Katie

I met my husband online, purely by accident. We were playing spades on zone and got to talking. I went and met him and we did that back and forth a few times. Then he moved to Tulsa to be with me after a year and a half of the long distance thing. I wouldn't recommend it to anybody. But it did work for me. I made sure I did my research before I went to meet him and he turned out to be the person I imagined he would be. But before I met him I talked to his friends and family, and prayed about it. We have been married for two and a half years now. I couldn't be happier. God Bless.

Not myself; but I personally know of 3 couples who met this way. 2 have been married 5 years and the other 7 years. One of the couples is expecting their first baby. :)

I have met someone very special to me this way. I know lots of people who have met their spouses this way and I wouldn't rule it out. Just keep your eyes open and let your intuition and good judgement rule..... not your heart.
