It depends on the context...........if you guys are really talking about you life and experiences instead of fluff then I have to say yes...........I started falling in love with my boyfriend through just IM and emails................I love google thats how we really got to know each other for two months and we only lived two cities away but we wanted to get to know each other in depth...............

You can love a persons thoughts and emotions if you connect at a deeper level,and love that they have little and big things in common with you,love to me is just a view point someone has...but in answer yes,but it helps to seal the deal by meeting.But by then you already know eachother well enough that the physical part dont really matter,love is about the heart so i heard...

There was a guy I used to talk to on here all the time via e-mail. I thought he was so wise and kind. The first time I talked to him on the phone, I realized he was an azz and full of crap.

This was later confirmed.

you can feel something yes...inspired....special...intrequied....start to care...wonder...it is a great feeling

love is actions words are cool but i think love is better face to face

you can show your love with relatives at a distance but with a stranger...it is face to face. with a soul mate there are other things that need to happen like chemistry. To make sure you are not falling for a dillusion or wishfull thinking...it is in the actions that love happens....

but i have liked someone deeply on here or should I say 143 hehehehe

Yes, but only to an extent. I believe that you only let yourself see/hear what you want to make things work for you. You can not rely on what is said through messages. I believe the only way you can find out about your feelings for sure is to interact with that person face to face. Also, you are not getting the "real" person when you exchange messages. You get an edited version of them which in most cases is either way off from their true self or only their good points. Again, I will reiterate, that I believe that it is best to interact with the person face to face. Its unedited, unscripted, unadulterated and most of all its more real than exchanging messages.

I think it's possible to develop an attachment, it's possible to like what you "see," it's possible to imagine future events and such --

But for me, love requires a more direct, more "hands-on" approach, so to speak....

Having dabbled with on-line LDRs a bit in 2006, I can honestly say I would not do that again. There has to be personal contact.

And you can jist hide the true face of who you are sometimes, for a while. Or we can see what we are shown and take it on faith, to our detriment at times.

I think that you CAN fall in love without ever meeting in person....
You fall in love with the inner person, which is a great thing... way too many people go for looks.
I don't care what a man looks like as long as he REALLY loves me for me.
NO I am not that great to look at , but it would be nice for someone to love me for WHO I am ...Not for my looks.

Good thread Mirror!

I agree! Doesn't it boil down to "In Love With" or just "Lust After"?

When I first started looking for "love" on line, I thought that it may be possible. But after chatting on line and then meeting several people I found that my mental picture of a person rarely matches the real life version. So now I'm a lot more cautious and guarded. And I wait for the first meeting to decide if there is any chemistry....JMHO flowerforyou
