Do you have any intimate relation ship with a person through net. Like these public forums or through online chatting? If so, how did it ends with? I mean, did you tried to meet them in person or just continuing your journey through only in a net or do you have any phone communications? Basically we are more interested to meet our friends often ( Speaking about non net friends ). Do you ever think that we have a nice friends through online and we should meet them in person once in a while if it is possible. Because its a human nature. Feel free to share your comments :)

Yes i have a relationship with a person through net. We communicate everyday. We live in different cities. We have been writing for months and one day we decided to meet. It happened in her town. She is very kind and good person and now we are a couple. I think you have to meet your online friends but the security is very important and there are a lot of sick people which are searching for naive young people so make sure the person for which your friend is presented for is really him.

you are right ^^ im happy that you met that girl near you^^ its really sweet that you did that. i wish that everything goes right for you. the best way to know if someone is honest or not is seeing in cam. at least you can see the face and know. im really happy that that girl was like you dreamt her to be. sometimes net is a bit hurtful :(

Honestly I dont believe in these net relations cause most of the time the person is not the same as they described themselves and it turns out to be just a joke. Its just fine to keep them friends over the net.

We can have so many different kinds of relationships with people. I think it is more difficult and trying to have a real relatrionship with someone you are not with in person. you can't always be sure of where you stand when you can not see.

But i speak about only a friendship. No need to see the face to be a friend. Anyone can be a friend for anyone. The only thing is our friendship should be with a genuine person. This is the only qualification requires.

I am into social networking for four years now and I met a lot of new friends online.I even had serious relationships with a couple of them, one i have already seen but it didnt last and ended after two years.Although I think people get to be more transparent online cause they are not too shy ...still it's all a different world when you come to meet him in person. I am in a serious online relationship again ... we have plans for the future but I can honestly say that I don't high hopes for it.The distance, the immigration laws, the culture and a lot more can put a lot of pressure. Just playing it by the ear..though i really love the guy and i know he is serious with me.

Yes people get to be more transparent online cause they are not too shy. Some people who feels shyness in person may not in the same category while online. Thanks for sharing with me. Wish you good luck & you'll succeed in your life :)

No I have never met people online because I don't know who they really are and I would just start panicking. I prefer to meet people in public where I can see them and learn how they are, but the bad thing about that is that they may pretend to be somebody that they aren't, so that's what I do not like. I guess it's risky both ways, but I think that meeting people through friends is actually way better because than you don't have to be worried that it is a complete stranger. Well everybody makes their decisions on how they want to meet people.

I have a friend i met online but we don't have an intimate relationship. In fact he's also here and we consider ourselves as dear friends. Since we both live in the same country,it does get into my mind meeting him one day and wondering how it would be to be meeting a person consider a friend in person. Definitely it won't lead to anything romantic at all and I'm just glad to have him as a good friend I can talk to and share some problems and some secrets with.

Glad to hear that definitely it won't lead to anything romantic. Getting a love & affection from a person as a friend is more nice thing in the life. Getting a good & true friendship from an opposite gender is really fortunate. Its very hard to find that kind of people.

Getting intimate online is not my idea of a relationship. How could one get close and yet so far? Personally, part of intimacy is physical proximity and without it, it is nothing.

There are few good people on the internet but it's hard to find one. I had a relationship through cellphone before but then that was not intimate. I felt lonely when my bf and me broke up. So, I was thinking of searching for a someone I could talk or text to just to divert my attention. I guess he took it for real and mine was just playing messing around. He wanted to met us up but then everytime he planned to met us in a certain place I always refused and making some stories that I can't come. So, it didn't last for I had change my number and luckily he never knew my address too.

Oh god. We can have a relationship through net. But there should be some limit in everything. Should not share the contact numbers & address until we know the person whom we have an online relationship is a genuine.

hello, There are still many nice people in the world or even through online users. We can meet a lot of people from different places and thorough the help of net. Well, I have a lot of friends online but I haven't met them before but I use to talk to them sometimes when we are available they are nice and good because we shares thoughts about our country and what are the ways of earnings etc. We never communicate through phone because of busy schedule and they are from other country. But we always must be careful sometime I met a person who is rude and dont even know how to respect a women.

Yes even i met many people in my state itself. But not in this forum. coz i am a new one here. But i have many online friends. I spoke with them through phone to 2 of them. Its a big story which i am not willing to share in the public. I also met a wrong person in my life through online. Like you suggested we should be very very careful because there is some possibilities to meet wrong person

I have met quite a few people on the Internet. Problem is they live in other states or countries. I do share e-mails with them and feel quite close to some. If I were ever in their state/country I'd definitly want to meet them.

Yes it is quite hard to meet the person who are in other country/state. We can meet our friend if he/she is in our state. thanks for your response

I think it's essential to meet someone in person before you start any type of relationship. People can act different when they talk on the computer, for reasons such as confidence and just personality.
