I never met him before, but we chat so much, and we see each other on the webcam..
we say so many nice things to each other, like we are in love.
we are going to meet one day, but he lives far from me..
but, are going to feel the same when we meet?

You can fall in love with someone on the Internet, but it's the first time you meet that is the real acid test. If the first visit doesn't go well you'll realise that it wasn't love, but if it goes very well then who knows what will happen!
I'm in the same situation, I met my girlfriend online (through a friend) almost 5 years ago, we first met up in 2005 and have been together ever since, seeing each other as much as possible. We are at different Universities but when we have graduated (only one year left) we will live together. It's very had work, but if it works out it can be worth it.
A word of warning - as im sure you've been told before - you must be careful, meet up during day time not just at night, and tell a friend or relative where you are.

I think it is very possible to fall in love with what you *know* of a person online, especially if you've seen each other on webcam. So yes, in a sense, you can fall in love with someone online. But of course, you are only seeing a small part of their character.
And I don't mean that he'll turn out to be a psycho!
A lot of the things that make up true, real, forever kind of love are the things that you need to experience in person. Until you meet in person you honestly can't say whether you will love him in person. You love him online, but it is a different love to the real love.
I met my boyfriend online and we talked for a month before we met up. We also had a 12 hour phone conversation that lasted from the evening right up until the next morning! We both say that is when we knew we were onto something good. But we both agreed to save the word 'love' for when we met, because a) we didn't want to cheapen it and b) we wanted to make sure that we felt the same way in person.
Hopefully in your case your online love is a good predictor of how you will be when you meet!

I do understand what you mean (: I am currently in love with someone I met online, I am 15, and he is 16. Except he is on the other side of the country from me. Mine was like 'love at first sight' only like 'love at first game' lolz. I met him on xbox live XD. And we been together since october. It was a rough road, but we made it, and are still together now, and are very much in love (: I also have a friend, who loves someone online. You very well could have met your match (: it does pay to be cautious however. How to convince your mum? That's tough. You could pay for her also, and then she would be happier with the idea. You could say like 'I am going, I have the money to pay for you also, so come or not come, I am going' except that is like blackmail, and not very nice. But you'd have to tell her how much you are in love, and like say how you've waited forever for this day and such. (over exaggeration, over emphasize. etc). So yeah. Haha, goodluck to you, I hope all goes well! I wish I could meet mine like you can. :( Goodluck! (:

Most likely than not you will be dissapointed when you finally meet him as things are always different in reality. What you are having right now is infatuation, you are in love with your idea of love...if you were to meet him first and liked him and then all the sweet talk came later, that would be a different thing... you will find out for yourself...you are wasting your time... put the closure to it-meet him asap and you will see...i hope i am wrong in my predictions. God Bless.

Danged girl I'm in the same boat there. And honestly yes I'm infatuated with her no matter how much I deny it. In fact the last 3 weeks without even a phone call or a reply email have been absolutely driving me crazy but finally she just today or yesterday sent me an email. Sighs in relief. So I'd say a major resounding yes to your question it is possible and I wish you luck with your "catch" and I hope it all works out for you both.

thats an impossible question to answer....but i can tell you this
last year i was in contact with a man for 4 months,like you we chatted on webcam every night and some nights on the phone also......we did eventually meet,we got on ok,but there were no sparks.....when he went back home he said he might come to visit again,there were no sparks for him either......we had agreed that if things didnt work out then we'ed remain friends....not so,we havent spoken for the past couple of months!!
however,i've been in contact with someone else for a couple of months now,we met after a couple of weeks and the sparks are definatley there.
so bare in mind that it might not have a happy ending.....its easy to fall in love with someone you've never met,even if you have seen them on webcam......it doenst always work in person tho.....good luck

I have been there, several times. It feels so good, and safe. He is so far away, and it's like a fairy tale, he says what you want and need to hear, and you can dream about the day you meet, or what it would be like to have him here. Unfortunately, it hardly ever is like that in real life. Guard yourself, and he careful. I know the feeling, and I miss it, because it felt so good! But after it was over...... ugh.

No how can you without meeting them face to face you may as well go out and chat up the first person you meet on the street.

Well I would say no as you only no eachother 40% as you not in there day to day lives, everyone is different over the net. Things will appear different in real life, sometimes for the better or worse. But I doubt you are in love.

in my opinion, i think relationships on the net can work to a degree, but only after u meet, what your feeling at the moment is lust. just remember to be careful if you do decide to meet up. you can never take too many precautions! best of luck! Sammi x x x
