I don t ask about fake relations, i ask about normal, true relations; do you really believe that peoples can have real relations to net? Friendship? Business? Love? Do you really believe that to net peoples can have this kind of relations is just a empty word? Do you know somebody who had a real relation to net? I don t believe in true relations, is very dangerous to believe that other person can be honest as much you are honest.

I believe that relationships can be developed over the internet. I personally have met people online that I talk to on a daily basis over AIM. I wouldn't know about online dating as I've never tried it before, but I know it works for some people and if it does for them, that's fine.

The two "romatic" relationships that have been the most successful in my life both started through the internet, so yes, i believe in them. I met my husband (though after 2 years of marriage and about 5 years of total relationship time, he is now my ex) In an online chat room. I lived in the middle of the USA, and he lived onthe east coast, some 2500 miles apart. After a year of getting to know eachother, and "dating" online, we finaly met, then shortly after that i moved across the country to be with him, we were together for a while, got married, and were quite happy for a bit. I think our downfall came form getting married at too young of an age, and had nothing to do with how we met. My current boyfriend, whom i have been dating for about a year and a half now, i also met online. On a free dating website to be exact, even though we were boththeir with profiles that we were looking for friendship only, we just really hit it off with out emails and chats, and eventually met up..and hit it off even more. So to re-iterate, yes, i do think you can build real relationships on line.

Yes I saw many people who have friendship through internet. They can be a good friend and sharing different problems, even though, they never met personally. I think, some people are feeling better talking about their secret to someone who never met. For love, I never know anyone have a real relationship through internet.

..well, I believe that relationships could be established through the net or virtually.. I have already witnessed people getting married after establishing a relationship through the internet.. Well, I believe that if people are honest with their purpose, then they will also meet honest people.. Again, everything is a matter of trusting and having a positive mindset.. Of course, if you have a negative mindset about this thing, then I believe you will never encounter somebody who will have a good relationship with you through the net.. But if you change your perspective and start to be honest to yourself and to others, you will definitely meet honest people whom you could establish friendship with.. Happy mylotting..

why not? i believe that business and friendship relationship in the internet is possible. I heard of love relationship over internet but i hope they don't get serious about it. I really read a true story that a mother had a relationship over the internet and pursued it. I believe that at the time they are talking it was both an outlet for them to get to know each other and with something that was lacking in her relationship wiht her husband, she saw it with her lover in the internet. Maybe she was looking for something new to sparkle her mind and heart. Although it may be unfair to the husband because he was unaware of the relationship, at the time he discovered it, the wife have already decided on things she might have regretted. However, the husband was able to save it - i did not found out the solution and they were back in each others arms again. They have 3 children and the husband would not want to break the family for some kind of areificial relationship over internet.

hi ice, there are a lot of couples who are now happily living together after meeting online. what they had is trust, hope and the development of feeling for each other. if you will not believe the same, it is not going to happen. after meeting so many times online, surely you will know and feel the honesty or dishonesty of one another. yes it is dangerous. but always be positive whatever happens. if it is not meant.. then its not for you. ann

Technically the internet is a clearing house of contact. Just like in any trading market there are buyers and sellers of services, so the internet forum is a place to get to know people.MyLot do sanction that personal matters be channeled to the PM. It is up to individuals to forge relationships. THese could be information sharing, interest sharing and possibly, for those who live in same cities, they can meet up if they are of similar itnerests. If relationship develop, it is theirs to have.It can of course be honest and sincere.

Maybe two people can become friends then a couple. I knew that two people did. Because they all have liver trouble. In China, people who is infected with liver trouble may be discriminated by others. Because of the lack of knowledge of it, many people think it can spread, people with liver trouble will have problems when they look for jobs and marriages. Many good companies will not employ these people and they also will be refused by these lovers. So people with liver trouble have to marrige a person like him after he is refused many times. I know two people with liver trouble got marriged. They know each other through the internet.

You mean building a true relationship through chatting the net? Well, there are lot already who get engaged through meeting their partner in the net with a constant communication but I don't belong to that situation. I find it silly but I don't have comments with that kind of relationship because that's their prerogative.

Sometimes when you look forward for a relationship here on internet, it's quietly silly. You create a relationship without seeing this person.

I can say yes, and no to that. I have friends, and even do business on the net, with people I have never met personally. I met my husband on Yahoo personals, we are happily married for six years. There are lots of people I have met that I found out also were untrustworthy. You must be safe, and careful.

about 7 years ago, i knowed my ex girlfriend. This story has finished about 1 year ago, for a total of 6 years. i think that internet could be good for real relations between humans(even a love story) but the killing factor is the distance itself..the distance make the things impossible to manage(my ex girlfriend was about at 90km from my home). However, with an online site, i knowed about 5 months ago, my actual girlfriend, who live about at 4km from my house :-)

My husband and I met on the internet, in 2004. Because of our circumstances, we did not meet in person until 2007. We fell in love all over again when we met in person, and were married a few months later. It has now been a little over two years, and we coudln't be happier. :)
