be attracted to someone you've only "met" online? If you haven't seen them, what makes them attractive?

It's mental attraction. I like a person for their mind and personality. Looks can be a bonus, but if you can get into someone's head, you have captured their heart.

Yes you really can be attracted to someone online that you've never met. It has to be their personality and or their sense of humor. But you should at least get a pic before you go too far with anything as you might be disappointed when and if you get to meet them.

I have some very good friends that I have connected to on this site. I wouldn't know them otherwise. I have never met them in person, but by virtue of e-mail, 360 phone calls and Im, I have gotten to know them very well.
I have a true affection for these people. Their persona shines through the written word. Some are older, some, much younger. They are all very dear to me.
Can you become attracted to someone on line? I suppose that you can. I don't know that I would go in that direction, but I know people who have.
I even know people who eventually did meet and get married.
Life in the 21st century has taken a turn toward the unconventional.

I never have been personally, but I know I've liked guys before that weren't what most people consider good looking, but it was their personality and the conversations that made me like them. So yes I believe it's entirely possible to like someone you only met online and it's a personality thing that makes you like that person - you two just get along well with one another and that's part of what makes your online friendship tick.

There personality makes them attractive. I've experienced crushing on a guy I met online. We even became online bf and gf. The rest, is history.

I think you can be attracted to their personality, but that personality they show across isn't generally their whole personalitly including bad bits.
I think the main problem with meeting up with people on the net is, you've built up such a good image of the person from conversations etc, when you meet they might not be what you'd previously thought.

Yes, you can absolutely can be attracted to someone you met on the net. You don't necessarily have to have met someone in order to be attracted to him/her. When you meet someone in the net you don't know how he/she looks like in the outside but how he/she looks like in the inside, and that is very important in order to knowing somebody.
Although you should also be careful on the net, cuz there are a lot of people who are not what they say they are, so be careful.
good luck.

The thing that makes them attractive is their personality. That's very important with an individual, but you need the spark in person as well.
It just shows you like them for who they are, but remember, they have time to think what to say, its not a real convo.

I think it can happen... doesn't mean you really are gonna deeply fall in love...yet... but yes you can feel attracted to someone online...
The way you guys chat, the language, "personality", thoughts, believes... if its a nice, fun, honest chat/email... these can be reasons to feel attracted to someone :)
