You can have feelings for the person *as they present themselves*, but you won't know the real person until you live with them for a few years. Humans are social animals, we need more than just words on a screen. you need all of your senses, you can look at their picture on the screen (if it's really them), you can hear their voice on the phone, but to really be in love you have to feel, smell and taste the other person. You can't do that online.

I think it is possible, though I can not see how it happens....
Been there done that. Not a good experience
i think its falling in love with the idea of falling in love
I don't only think, I KNOW, from personal experience, more than once.
I probably would've been skeptical, too.
Well, certain aspects didn't always work out, in the end, anyway.
I do. Back when I was in highschool, my BFF met her boyfriend on one of those "chat lines". I'm sure you remember what I'm talking about. They talked on the phone for a couple years before they met. Anyways, he came and met her, here it's been about 17 years later and they are still together. I think if both parties really want it, then anything can happen.
I suppose it's a different world than when I dated a few centuries ago hahaha!!
People fall in love with their minds and hearts. So what is so hard to believe about them falling in love over the internet?
I don't know. I think it's possible but I don't understand how if you have never really met the person. I personally wouldn't trust someone I met online enough to fall in love. I don't think it's a good idea either. Too many weirdos out there.
i think it is the HIGHT OF STUPIDITY
Possible, but danger.
Anything is possible. Most who meet on the net eventually meet and start dating just like anyone else.
It's possible, Nowadays the computer isn't a safe place to meet anyone. This is just my opinion.
It's dumb to fall in love with someone you've never seen, at lease Skype, oovoo or FaceTime before actually starting to have feelings... You need to be sure that the persn is who you say and actually hang out with the person, get to know them FACE to FACE
I believe it's possible to fall in love with someone you met online but no, not true love. I believe it could become true love with work and time spent together but not that there is true love simply over the internet. Sorry to my friends that are involved or believe otherwise and dont forget that for every story of success there are 100 stories of hurt feelings, or worse.
i have a crush on someeone in here but he doesnt know :( so maybe yeah?
i feel it is infatuation more than love . people start imaging other . so that relation is more imaginative than real and for some time chat, online any one can make him or her a representative in chat but what is reality only those know who live near them and communicate with in different matters of life . i feel practically it can't work but in imagination it can ... :)
Don't you watch catfish? Lol. No I do not think it'd be possible for me. But maybe others
It is possible for two people to be total virtual strangers and fall in love. But there is no assurance that this person is who they claim to be, and it can be a dangerous game. I wouldn't not trust a stranger online who tells me they want a relationship.
They may sound handsome or beautiful and then you meet the 400 pound mate to be... Will you still love them and that great personality ??
I think it displays a badly distorted understanding of what love is. It's difficult to validate wishful thinking as love. As for success stories, haven't heard as much about any of them as about the predators and scammers who lurk online.
It would definitely be a difficult decision to make, pursuing a romance online. There would be a lot you have to take into consideration; a lot more than you already do when choosing a mate. Not only can the physical characteristics of this individual be completely false, but they could possibly suffer from disorders, a bad temper, or something that might be a deal breaker for you. The Bible tells us that the "secret person of the heart" is what is valuable to God. We can apply this same statement. The person may appear to be one way, but what is in their heart. "Out of the heart's abundance, the mouth speaks," (Matthew 12:34) In order to know what this person's heart is, their actions will reflect it. And in order to see their actions, you must know them outside of the internet, and spend a considerable amount of time with them.
Apparently it is. Stupid in most cases but apparently possible.
Actually my aunt met her fourth husband on an online dating service. Didnt meet face to face for over a year but did talk on the phone. They did meet eventually though, dated some. Were married over 20 years before he died recently from lung cancer.
50/50
People lie too much online. You never know who you're getting. Face to face and long term dating, and then you're still taking a chance!
People can make 'connections' online, by sharing ideals, and disclosing deep personal feelings to one another.
Poetry, is a good example of this.
I absolutely love writing poems, and sharing them, online. That is how I 'connect' my thoughts and feelings, with others.
Oh, I think its plausible, to "fall in love" online. I just met a chick online & we are now best friends. & I lov her. :-D
Yes i assume so if you watch the show cat fish but obviously you half to be careful
