Not asking about myself. Just in general. :)

..... it's good!.... but you've got to check them out properly, choose carefully, and use some common sense as well... Emailing is probably best for a couple of week's, to give you time to work them out, and after that if you think yuh like them, then you can probably go onto web cam, to check it's not some old guy, and not some young school boy..... If your'e 1st few go's, dont work out, then keep on trying until yuh find someone... That's the good thing about online dating, you can try as many different guy's as you like, at the simple flick of some button's.... It's fast, easy, and convenient!.... Just make sure you use common sense,... and youve a really good chance, of finding yuh guy!...

I met my current girlfriend online, and we've been together for a year... of course, we DID go to the same high school and same grade, though we didn't know each other back then.
I'd say give it a try, just be careful when meeting people for the first time, do it in a very public place, and get to know them as well as you can online before even considering meeting them (though this isn't always a sure thing, as people can be totally different from the persona they project online)

I agree there are maniacs on and stale the internet. the ingredient appropriate to the internet is that folk lie extra and it particularly is plenty much less confusing to lie to. some human beings do it perpetually because of the fact they take exhilaration in it. i've got heard memories approximately human beings having on line relationships and the guy on the different end would save making excuses to now not meet them in individual...and it might finally end up that he's having on line relationships with a dozen different women human beings too, or that he became completely distinctive from how he made her have faith he became, and intensely convincing. yet i think of it particularly is unquestionably conceivable to fulfill great human beings on the internet. If I have been unmarried that could surely be the 1st place i'd look. you additionally can get to acknowledge a individual extra effective than you will head to head now and lower back, because of the fact some human beings are much less guarded whilst we are typing, extra open. the ingredient is you purely ought to take each thing they say with a grain of salt, and not have faith the guy thoroughly till you get to acknowledge them in actual existence.

I've met quite a few guys on line since I started in August, only spoke to 2 over the phone and really liked one from Massachusettes alot. I would have loved to get with that one, but the other two were really not my type. It's hard to beleive anything they tell you about themselves, which makes you become enfatuated w/ a fantasy basically. You can make frienships but anything real serious is unlikely. Good luck though if you're trying it.

I know someone who's been doin' it for 2 years.... works for them! But it depends upon the people and situations. Many online relationships end due to flakiness.

I've heard of happy outcomes numerous times, and I've talked to people online. Really, I've no intention of meeting most of them. You still can't beat meeting people in person.

I personally do not think it is possible. I do not think that a relationship can be meaningful over the internet. TO talk to a pesron and to actually be with the person while talking is different.
