if they have a great personality and you are comfortable enough to talk to them about anything whenever you guys are online together then yes…it won’t matter what they look like or talk like or kiss like, if you fall for their personality then you have fallen for that person, the hardest thing to do is to get to know someone and if you do that before even meeting them in person you could have a great relationship and an astounding love that would make everyone jealous…its when you meet them first that you need to question…

What makes love? How do you know you love someone? Do you know by looking in their eyes? Then how do blind people know they're in love? Do you know by touching someone? Then people who have never had sex with their partner wouldn't love them as much as someone who has, no matter how long they'd been together, using this logic.
Love is an emotion that is brought about through personalities. Can you find this when you're desperately searching for someone who will love you, no matter whom? Chances are, no. However there are those people who meet by chance and a relationship develops.
Why if these two personalities are completely compatible and amazing together, should they cut off any possibility of love simply because of distance between them?
"They COULD be a mass murderer." So could anyone you know, you don't suddenly gain complete knowledge of someone simply by glancing at them. In fact if you meet someone online in a completely objective, not desperately trying to "hook up" basis, chances are you'll be able to get a pretty good idea of how this person really is. Some people may be very skilled at lying about things, however they could also be that guy at the bar every weekend.
There are risks when going into any form of relationship. However to say that one relationship is less valid than another simply because they haven't touched, or kissed, or because they live far away, is just discriminating. Plain and simple.
In fact my Aunt and Uncle met over the internet a long time ago and have now been married for about 4 years.

It’s possible but it’s kind of tough to keep a decent relationship with them. People who date online can cheat far more easily. One’s partner will know nothing other than what they tell them, usually.. making it pretty darn easy to lie. Eh, I know this ‘cause I’ve been in that situation before. Also, perhaps one or both people in the relationship will start to have the urge to be able to do physical things with the other, and then the relationship becomes much harder because there is a greater negative feeling involved. Love is possible over the internet, it is just hard.. and I would highly suggest not trying to find love this way.

GET REAL!Voted for by Modern Mistress.
I so can’t buy the whole “I love you & wanna spend my life with you.” line of bull from someone who has never looked into my eyes,kissed my lips,Hell even held my hand. Not to say that if two should meet that there would not be a huge fire of love between them…it could work..LOVE could be there. But to make promises of Love to someone I do not know…I could never do that. HEADGAMES aren’t my style. This should NOT be confused with on-line flirting,friendship,even fantasies…LOVE is different than that….Whats your take on it? BTW,my best friend is a on-line friend who I have never met…do I love her? YES. Would I leave my family & my home to be with her? NO.

No, cyber love, come on, why don't you just fall in love with your blow up doll or a cardboard cut out.

I think the internet helps less confident and less attractive people find happiness and companionship. Online it's easier to get to know someone without thinking about their looks.

I tried itVoted for by D-Man Von Croy.
I mean let's face it, alot of people fake it as a joke, but I tried it for real with my girlfreind and it is scary and demanding and unpredictable, if you have tried it without it being a joke, then you will know how I feel

Not so muchVoted for by gobuggy99.
i don't believe in cyber love. i mean, two different people could read the same paragraph of....well, anything.... and even though the WORDS are exactly the same, the people will still read them differently. for example, you might read an essay or a poem or something online, and then happen to see that person presenting their piece somewhere, and the way they come off can be COMPLETELY different than the way you perceived it online. it's that sort of thing, where i think you have to be real-and-in-person before you can honestly truly KNOW the person enough to be in love.

It just doesn't work. I mean sure there are cases. I don't completely bash something I don't believe in. But yeah, you never know if the person you are talking to is a 50 year old child molester, just waiting to meet you.

NOVoted for by mismixsxy.
Because its not there. IN order to love someone strongly, you'll have to have that ones presence there. You might think your in love, but your really not. Esp if your having cyber sex, that's not love. THat is something about sex. Stuff like that doesnt really work out in the long run...
