Hello jane9147! My husband and I met online. The first time we met, I don't have any idea how he looks like but he saw my picture. For one month of talking I don't see his face. I am not sure if it's love at first but I really look forward on reading his letters to me. I guess it's love and it grows more especially when I saw him on cam and see his handsome face..hehehe..now, we're married.

I have someone who I chatted with almost every day for three months and we both do not have an idea how each other look like. It's not actually love in the real sense of the word but more of a feeling of tenderness towards the person. We decided to meet in person, and the feeling of tenderness developed into an affection. We met almost every day for five months. Too bad, we have to stop seeing each other as we both know that the feeling is not suppose to prosper into something deeper. We decided to remain friends and we do still communicate once in a while.

Oh yeah! We just chat about anything we could think of, he knows I have a boyfriend that time and I was very clear that I just want friendship. But of course, if you get to have a conversation with someone, and in our case, we started seeing each other, it's really very difficult not to fall for each other. He never courted me but we both know that the feelings for each other is turning into something deeper. I decided not to see him anymore. It was a very tough decision. But it's the best thing for the both of us. Since then, we only communicate via chat. Good thing, the friendship remains.

Well there is a word as what you call 'destiny'! I can't say that I don't believe in such thing because I haven't experience it yet before. But when I met this guy, and talking for a month makes me feel so comfortable and I think he feel the same way with me. I can't say again, that he's inlove or I'm inlove with him, but we have this connection, and would like to have this good relationship we have more, which I think it's called as 'infatuation'. I like him and he likes me.. And there's nothing better to meet someone and to know that person through that.

For me in order you to love that person, you must see her/him in person and know his attitude very well. going sometimes on dating so that you will know to each other wither you're compatible or not. i do believe that a getting to know each other process is the key to a success relationship.

My friend, I have not fallen in love with somebody that I have not seen yet. Actually,I have fallen in love with my boyfriend for the first sight.So I believe that someone may fall in love with somebody that he or she have not seen yet. It's important for a person to see each other,however,do you think it's more important for a person to see the spirit ? Possibly,the person you have not ever seen is something wrong that can not make you love him or her,I still believe that two guys may fall in love with each other without seeing.@_@

yes, I think it was love anyway. I chatted with a french guy 3 years back. He was asking questions about Philippines as he will be spending 6 months of each year there acting as a project manager. I liked him that time but was very shy to tell him, and I had a bf that time. We agreed to meet, but sad to say that didn't happen and I went to middle east to work. Then here we had constant communication. I started missing him, became jealous of every girl who likes him. To make the story short, we've been online lovers. Even talked about marriage, having a happy family but things changed. Even jealousy won't make me sleep.We never had the chance to meet and believe it or not, I still cry sometimes... I don't know why it hurts a lot, loving and losing someone you never met in person, I guess nobody will ever know what we felt that time. Sometimes it felt like an illusion but for me it was very real. Now, I am trying hard to move on. :)

No. I have not faced such situation. And as I am not chatting, I have little scope.
