Rofl, boredom has overwhelmed me.

I'd say it's perfectly fine, if you watch out who you're dating. Just don't fall into the trap off an internet predator, lol.

It's "okay", if you're planning to meet this person pretty soon, but be safe and proactive.
roooyer
I chose get a life...lol

well, maybe it's not that harsh. Maybe those types of relationships are good only to start off on, but it should get more personal for it to be ok ...

yeah like people like me. justkidding

i dont really see the point of internet relationships

I think that it's only okay if you've actually met the person in real life before or live pretty close and are meeting soon. eDating someone halfway around the world would be kinda stupid. Usually, I think it's pathetic - unless it's a joke.

It's good. It depends if you love eachother. Some people can handle it others can't.
Not everyone with agree with it. But lots will. You have to be comitted and realize it's hard.
Trust me on this!

I chose "if you truly love each other" because really, love knows no boundaries nor distance.

Well, do you mean knowing someone, then something happens, like they move, then dating them online?

Or

Meeting someone online & dating them and maybe agreeing to meet them?


I am fine with both, though I think if you agree to meet, do it in a nice public place ... Maybe near a police station?

If you trust in the person and are aware of what you might be getting into.

SandRAWRz
yeah i chose get a life....i think they aren't any guarentees in online dating except you get to have cyber all the time and masturbate in front of the computer
-sincerely
i find it totally stupid. there's no point. you don't see them. you can't kiss them. they're probably fake. idk, jmo.
voguelove
NO.

the personality of a person is different on the web and in real life. you're not getting to know the real person.

so, its like..dating a fake.
demolished
How is it like .. dating a fake?
ANG33ZY
I don't believe in internet relationships because like ashopely said.. you can't kiss them, you don't see them so...

but it works out for some people.

Get a Real Life .
marzipan
Psh. Get a life. You don't know who you're dating online. It could always be a pedophile. The whole thing is way too risky.

(why is this in the boys' locker? this relates to relationships.)

One of my exes started from an internet relationship, but we didn't really really meet online, a girl hooked me up with another girl and we exchanged screenames.

I think net relationships are fine if you have proof they're really who they say they are.
Net dating is much like reality dating, and its better if you're a computer junkie like myself. shifty.gif
You just don't have to be around them and stuff. I find it much easier. happy.gif

seriously. but to little girls/boys who have e-relationships; GET A LIFE.
miiichellley
Let people do it, but i don't agree.
I mean, you can't even see the person unless you actually decide to meet up, and 99% of the time, they don't live close to you. And half of that 99% are predators, probably.

^yeah thats the plus to it. but i like being close to a person.
Smoogrish
I think it's fine as long as you know for sure that it isn't some stalker. But I don't think the chances of it actually growing a lot are very high. If you're not seeing them in person, how close can you get to someone?
mono_logue
as long as you've met and it is some sort of long-distance relationship, than i guess it is adequate.
x1227x
It's fine, just be aware that that person CAN be a predator. I honestly don't have anything against it and if you're a internet junkie and you don't want to go outside to find a IRL boyfriend, I don't see the harm in getting a internet relationship. It'd be better if you guys talked on the internet and met eachother once in a while, though. wink.gif
Intercourselyts
Its perfectly fine, its pretty normal now-a-days from how I view it. As long as you get plenty of proof that their the real deal and not some fake sicko out in the world.
Chii
It's not exactly perfectly okay or perfectly not okay, it's like in the middle.

It's not something you should strive for and it's also not something you should avoid like the plague. If it happens, it happens. I have met people through the Internet. The Internet just brought us to each other, I actually regularly saw/dated those people in person.

However it would be weird to have a serious relationship with someone you have never seen in person...
mocassinsx29
when i was in sixth/seventh grade, my friend had one and she told ppl she was 18. hah. you never know who you're dating.

Internet relationships have alot of downfalls.
Kontroll
Oh, God, Trilby. What are you doing here? Great. One more place I have to see your sad face at. haha. I'm just messing with you. I had no clue that you were on here. Haha. Do it more, it's fun. We make fun of people. Haha. Me Josh and Jeremy.

Yeah, actually one of the teachers that taught at my old school met her husband on the internet. It works sometimes, but I don't suggest it. Do it the old fashioned way. Peace.

Honestly? The internet can be seen as just another social playground but some don't consider it 'real' enough. To me, if the person exists and I've heard their voice, they are real. I put myself in a position where I can get hurt even with 'internet matters' but that's a risk I'm willing to take. Making it 'real enough,' though, would have to include meeting each other. Now getting past that is another problem. And I'm talking actual connections with others, not cybering or what-not ._.
But the internet can just act as a door in finding the 'one'; what comes after that would be just like any other budding relationship.

i'v tried it before to experiment. its just not the same as in real life. seeing the person in real life gets me to like them even more. what sucks about internet relationships is that the person can cheat on you soo easily

Holy Tolito!!!

Tril, join us!!!


Well, I think internet relationships are a little risky. Are the you falling in love with anonymity or the person?
Intercourse.
Woah Trilby came back to createblog ohmy.gif

Theres a lot of things that aren't that great about internet relationships. I would highly suggest making sure that the person is really real and try talking on the phone with them instead of just using the internet...Its risky.
mmhmichelle
Honestly,i think it's pure stupidity to "love" someone over the internet. It's like,agreeing with rape ! :O
madgamer
well if you really admire that person and you guys had knew each other pretty well for a while. i mean like talking on the phone and you can share each others your secrets then yeah its alright but just dont fall for a predator.
multifaceted
its fine as long as you really don't dig the guy or girl

I'm glad I continued reading everyones replies, because that is exactly what I was going to say.

My fiance and I met in a DBZ chatroom ... Oh 5 years ago, and we've been dating almost two years now. But it's still a partial online thing because he lives way in the UK, and I'm in the US...

[ he's moving here this year thumbsup.gif ]
