(quoting from someone's answer I seen earlier)
When someone endures a great sacrifce or stands up to a threat on behalf of another, it is hard not to love that person for it.
Someone stood up to a threat for me and while they were busy doing that I fell in love with them.
Is this the wrong reason to base a relationship on?
could it be anything else other than love?
Funny thing is this person spent alot of time helping me......
two years now....and now my "threat" is no longer a threat
but without his help I would most likely be dead by someone else's hand or suicide.....
met him online and never met him in person....

He tells me every day that he loves me, I still talk to him every day.....we've talked about meeting we're 2,000 miles apart.
The thoughts of suicide were caused by the situation I was in.......I was married to a physically/verbally abusive alcoholic....

....and ......no....after being in the situation I was in for a very long time....I'm in no real big hurry to have a "real time" relationship.

No, I didn't lmao, I thought it was way more sad than funny. Why would you pick another person's answer and put it up for ridicule anyway? Is your own life so hideously pathetic that mocking someone else's thoughts or feelings is a form of entertainment for you?
If you want to call someone a loser, do it in a mirror. And incidentally, it IS often hard to differentiate between gratitude and love, as you would know if you had any understanding of human nature. It may not be the best foundation for a relationship, certainly, but that's not the point here, is it?

They're obviously desperate, don't have a significant other, in fact probably don't have much intimate experience at all. They were looking for the special someone, but they never materialized. A complete idealist who has a bad dose of gullibility.

She?he? felt gratitude.
Two years of online friendship and they never met, and the rescued one is in love.
You are laughing at this person's situation?
It is sad that someone has no one but an online ghost.

It would be much wiser to base a relationship on real experiences with real people in the real world.....not over the internet.....just an opinion.

They probably felt bonded and mistaken it for love.
