just by talking to them over the internet and never seeing them? I'm just curious to know does this really happen?

I think someone online can pique your interest. Personally, if I think there is a spark of something more, then we take it to phone conversations and work up to meeting. I always remember that people need a sense of community in their lives and that those with depression have tendencies to isolate. Therefore, the internet is a way for people with depression to meet their needs of socialization. But is it really a place for falling in love? It becomes a facade, because afterall you cannot hug a person through a computer or touch them. That is only achieved in real life. I think finding love in real life is much better than any love found online which may or may not enter fruition of reality. It must also be remembered that when not in close proximity to someone it is much more difficult to tell if what he or she says is true. You are missing the non-verbal cues which would assist you in concluding accuracy of statements.

It has never happened to me, but I do believe very strongly that it can happen. And I know of several cases where it has and in fact very intensively. A couple I know actually got married and are living happily ever after too. The common denominator, once you get through the initial BS and the dishonesty part is the amount of communication that takes place between two interested parties on the net. When you are not face to face with some one, but are very anxious to tell and find out as much as you can, you tend to do it without any inhibitions. I believe this is where a person's true personality comes out very strongly. You tend to be very honest and open. A lot more than when you would be face-to-face. Makes sense. Yes, it does happen.

when you talk on the internet you may fall in love but you dont know if it is the truth. you could be falling in love with a bunch of lies. you should meet the person before really decide if you are in love with them. it will save the heart from feeling the pain of being broken.

I think it is possible if all parties involved were honest. I had a thing quite along time ago that could have blossomed into much more but for other circumstance. Generaly speaking though I fall in lust for the appearance and in love for the person.

I think that I can fall in love with a man having a pure soul and mind and strong personality made by Jesus Christ , Son Of God .God The Father also is shaping his personality..I cannot love a man that cheates on me...But I sacrifice if I am married to him..and have a child..Until a limit ...
I don't think you can fall in love on the Internet.But it is a perfect place to know what he/she thinks...because he is uncontroled and speaks a lot ..so you can see what he thinks.. Then if you contact him on mes and like his eyes maybe you will fall in love ..It is a field that is under the control of God ..I mean falling in love ...is not under my control..but I can give you this pice of advice.

A friend of mine just married someone that she met on the Internet. They talked for like a year, he was in S. Korea and she was here in Colorado. He came here on Valentines day and they got married.
I personally don't think it will work for that long, but hey she has always been eccentric. He he he

yes, I do.
I'll be married in a few months and I met her @ yahoo games. You just learn to love the person, not the body. After loving someone for 3 years, without seeing them, you just know.

I would always be very cautious, as the other person could be hiding things from you. I think that you can let your feelings run away with you, but you will never really know whether they are genuine until you meet. It can happen though.

Oh bigmama...it can happen...it does happen..sometimes successfully sometimes not. Best rule of thumb is to go slow and meet the person before making any major commitments.

I don't think so. A lot of people experiene what they think is love. Most people in fact. True love is something much much deeper. It tears you apart completely. And it forms from nothing in particular. But i would say you would have to be close to the person-sitting next to them for instance-to feel it.
