We are in BF - GF relationship for 3 years and 4 months. I felt his love for me but I still have a doubt because I have not seen him personally. Only picture and web cams.

Yes of course it is. If that person completes you, you can feel the connection any where.

I know people that have met their spouses online. Some of those marriages worked and some did not. So, yes it is possible to fall in love with someone you met online. But, you can't be someone's significant other online - that is only a virtual relationship - you need to be together offline to take the relationship to true boyfriend/girlfriend status.
From what I have seen from friends that have dated online - they say be cautious - and be realistic - why has it been years and you only know each other online? If location is keeping you apart - will it always? And how practical is that type of relationship? Ask youself what you want from this relaitonship - are you planning on meeting? So, yes you can fall in love with someone online - but it is "just" online until you meet in person and go from there.

No it is not and I will tell you why.
When I first started college I became very enamored with a guy who I chatted with over the internet and talked to on the phone a few times a week and I fell in love with the IDEA of being in love. I had never even met the guy! And I was young, never had a long-term, serious relationship, and things in my life were going horribly and he happened to be a positive thing at the time. But love? It did NOT exist, except in my imagination.
The idea that people can fall in love over letters and the internet or the phone is nonsensical and causes you to live in a fantasy world. Love exists only in person. True love chemistry and attraction also needs physical attraction and not seeing someone personally takes that away.

Calling an exclusively online relationship boyfriend/girlfriend or even love is naive.
Until you have spent time one on one with someone, you cannot know what they are really like.
Find a way to spend some time together. Fast.
Otherwise, call this thing you are calling love a great friendship, and start looking for someone you can really love and hold and touch.

Not love but like. You can get to know someone pretty well in a setting that is not personal. If you think about it, you spend more time at work and school than you do with family members.

It's possible to think that you are. But part of the problem is that, since you don't see them personally you don't know as much about the person--espescially what might be a "bad" side. If you knew everything about them, they might not seem quite so attractive.

I think it is possible because that happened to me. Once a friend of mine told me that one of his friends likes me. It was weird because I felt immediately some kind of connections to that person and I liked hearing stuff about him. Weird but possible. I met the guy afterward and I liked him. But we had nothing with each other because he had to move to another country. Nice experience...

Personally, I don't believe so, but others may disagree with me on that. Part of love and attraction is chemical. You might really like their personality, but on meeting them you may find that you're just not physically attracted no matter how good looking the other person may be...

Can't tell without more details than this. Are you chatting with someone and you think you love them? That's possible. Are you "in love" with a celebrity that you only ever see on TV? That's imaginary.
