"Love" is a big word and takes a lot of different components to make it possible. Just knowing someone over the internet could not establish such a huge emotion. In some instances, though, it does plant the seed. I, personally think it can be very, very dangerous, but it did happen to my cousin. My cousin is a male and he met his wife over the internet. He lived in California and she in Florida. They corresponded for about a year, she finally took a trip out to spend time in person with him and ended up relocating to live with my cousin. They are now married and have been for 3yrs. I think it's a very rare occurrance that this happens, but not impossible. Nobody ever knows just when or where or under what circumstances you will be brought to that perfect person. However, do understand that when you are only corresponding by email, all the other factors are being left out and so much is being left to imagination. I would NEVER suggest meeting the other person just because of the huge risk, I will leave that entirely to your discretion. If you are really serious about this other person and it's impossible for you to look for another relationship in a more practical manner, I would suggest you explore the realtionship by phone as well. Being able to call him/her on the phone at home and at work, will help confirm that he is legitmate as far as those aspects are concerened. There are also websites that do background checks on people -- and even after all this, I could never trust it.
Too many scary things in this world.

I think it can happen, but it can also turn out badly.
People can more easily lie and hide certain things about themselves over the Internet that they perhaps could not hide in real life. Otoh, people in real life also lie and hide things that they cannot as easily hide on the Internet.
Also, once the relationship shifts to real life, there are changes to adjust to. You might not be communicating as much as you used to, which seems odd, but it's not really if you think about how relationships on the Internet are almost totally dependent on communication. Ie if you're not texting them or speaking, then you're not doing anything toegether. Once you're sitting in a room together, none of that is necessary any more and so then ... you stop talking like you used to.
Also, you two may have very different expectations of how things will be, and while the relationship is mainly online it will be easy to idealize and imagine things are the way you wish -- but it may not be so.
You should try to move as slowly as you would with a real life relationship. Start calling the person on the phone so you can get to know them better before agreeing to meet.
Don't meet them in secret, either. If you're going to meet them, then tell some people where you're going, when you'll be back, so forth. I would try to meet them somewhere public the first time, and just do something ordinary like coffee and dinner or something like that.

Love doesn't exist its just a word. The love most people think they feel is mainly hormonal activity urging the body to reproduce but no there is no falling in love just a chemical imbalance that your body uses to make you volurnable to the other gender. now loving someone is different because you can love your mom your cousins etc love has no meaning besides what you make it which is why i laugh at young teenagers who use the phrase "I'm in love"

I guess it's possible if only BOTH of you are serious,otherwise it can be quite difficult.
I have a friend in Australia and he met this girl from Sweden.They made friends,kept in touch and eventually got married.She's now living in Australia with him.
Another friend from Japan got to know a guy from Singapore.They like each other and became friends.They got married and now she's in Singapore.
Nothing is impossible but it needs two hands to clap.
Good luck!
**Word of caution ~ Do not give too much personal info too soon and PLEASE DO BE CAREFUL!!!

I will always be a romantic. The flowers of love can blossom in the harshest of climates. I think that we chose are own destiny and when we find our own soul reflected in another, we will have found true love.

I think that when you meet someone long distance you get to know who they are as a person, their likes and dislikes, etc. You focus more on the inside than you do on the outside which makes you really get to know someone that's not based on sex.
