Is it insane to make plans to move in with someone that you only know over the internet?

My best friend has been talking and in a relationship with someone online who lives across the country. They havent ever met physically, but have been intimate over the phone and internet I guess. She and her husband are getting a divorce and she is currently still in the same house with him but plans to get her own place she just has to wait until her financial situation stabilizes. But she is making plans for this man who is unemployed currently to move out to her state and live together, with her children. She says they are in love and over the year have gotten to know each others ins and outs by talking for hours a day. I told her maybe instead of talking for hours a day he should have been looking for a job and paying his way to come see her and get to know her.. I am worried that she is making a huge mistake and is going to be stuck with someone she really knows nothing about. Do you think I am right?

    in basic terms one thank you to make sure isnt it? each little thing is obtainable. To my wisdom no person has long previous insane from suffering withdrawal from their dependancy. while you're a working laptop or computing gadget addict you're patently stalling your attempt to renounce or shrink intense utilization of the internet with the aid of asking questions approximately it.

    eh, yes. Such a thing is possible but you must meet at least a few times before you make any plans.
