Is it possible to be in love with a man whom you've only talked to for 1 year and a half but never met him?
I met my boyfriend online on january of 2007 which is last year. We talked to each other every single day. I'm talking about every single day, not a day we didn't speak. We spoke to each other for hours and hours, gmail chat during the day at work, etc each day. We shared pictures, our family stories, about ourselves, everything we possibly can. And we told each other we love each other. However, everytime we wanted to meet, something would always happen which i cannot say. And we just couldn't take it anymore after some things happened, we stopped last month. However, we told each other we love each other so much and I never felt this before. Do you think it's possible to be in love like this? I never had this connection not like this...
we have both seen other through web cams.

i think its possible to be in love with the idea of him.... if you spent more time with him you might be totally let down, but then again he might be the love of your life.

NOPE. Not for a guy anyway. Your just a bunch of words on a screen and we cant love fall in love with words.
Theres a whole other world to relationships that deals with chemistry, physical attraction, and experiencing things together which you cannot have from a screen name.
Plus you dont really know this guy, all you know is a screen name. What he is in real life is total unknown to you. You really cant know a person less you are face to face. Its so much easier to lie via phone or chatting or text etc. Same goes for the little web cam thing, its not the same.

Well good hi there there comrade I'm a lady into women considering the fact that I have abilities and my loved ones are deep to the center Christians The handiest deference among us might be I'm no longer rather shopping the God factor And I'm no longer judging you with that I'm simply letting you realize that's the one change with us on this hindrance good that and the sexual alternative haha Anyways ok you have got it unhealthy I consider you must e rather cautious if there without doubt no approach of finding out if his into men allow or not it's in the event you simply do not get the sensation he likes you in any respect do not push it you're going to turn out to be harm feel me sweetie I've been there dine that yada yada Yes you maybe however I love him such a lot (no longer mocking you I used to be in the ones footwear as soon as) and I simply can not allow him pass. Hey you deserve any individual that loves you and internet although his a first-class man and all you can not difference the truth he could simply no longer be into men All I'm looking to say is be rather cautious do not push it too some distance Hun you could get rather harm eventually

No. It is not possible. You have a crush on him and since you have never met him you have no idea if you have been chatting with a bald, fat 60 year old man pretending to be 34. He may even be married. Remember that internet romance is not the same as a real one. You have no idea about this guy. He could have just gotten out of prison a year and a half ago and if he is from a foreign country, he may be just looking for a ticket to the U.S and citizenship by marriage. Date real guys in your real city. You can't love him because you have never met him. He is just a fantasy.

It's possible but I wouldn't get my hopes ups. The fact that you haven't met him yet and you don't want to say why not concerns me. If you meet him and you like what you see what's next? Be careful and don't rush into a big mistake. People change and you can't judge a person from a conversation, web cam, e-mail,etc.

Yeah it is very possible. I speak from experience. Me and my husband me through my best friend and we would just talk on the phone. We both fell in love the very first night that we talked. We kept on just tallking for about a month and a half then we saw one another and we fell very much in love. and look at us now we have been together for 6 yrs. and we have never stopped loving eachother. Just don't let anyone put you down on how you feel. F**K everyone else and if that's who makes you happy then go for it.

Same thing happened to my girlfriend...She THOUGHT she was in love with him because of ALL the things she had shared with him....just like you. Things she says she couldn't possibly have shared with any other guy. All I can tell you from her experience is that SHE was the one being all open and honest, but deep inside she would tell me she would feel that insecurity of not knowing if what HE was telling her was the absolute truth. Sometimes guys will play along to see how far they can get...and will tell you things YOU want to hear. I don't know your situation, but you need to be very cautious with people you meet through the net. Yes it is nice to talk to someone about all kinds of stuff, but don't let your emotions get the best of you.

Yes, it is possible =)...to a certain extent. Most likely you are not fully in love since you are missing the physical aspect of being able to hug him or hold his hand, but as far as a mental & emotional connection goes, you guys are probably further along & better off than couples who meet in person & spend all their time dedicating to the physical aspect & not nearly enough time to the mental connection aspect of a relationship. So I say, yes, it is possible to a certain degree,however to maintain a relationship, you will need the physical also.

I met my husband online (it wasn't a dating site) and I started falling for him pretty fast. I could tell he was different & I hadn't felt that connected to anyone before. I was nervous to meet him in person but I just hoped for the best. We met & have been together ever since. That was 2 yrs ago & we just got married. So yes, it is possible.

Anything is possible, but I think you are being very idealistic. If what you are feeling is realistic love, then you would have found a way to meet face to face a long time ago. What you aren't saying is whether one or both of you is married. If that's the case, this isn't love. Its a self-fulfilling distraction.

No, not really. It's infatuation with a fantasy. No matter how much you chat online or phone, you simply cannot really know someone until you spend a considerable amount of time face-to-face. Otherwise, you're just diggin' the person you percieve them to be based on what they've told you and what your own mind has come up with...that may or may not be anything like who they actually are offline.
