do you think you can find real love on the internet? i used to be really pessimistic when it came to that because it's so easy to put up a front when people don't see you and it's so easy to lie. so it's all just words, how you put them together to bring up an image of a really amazing person. someone you may not be in real life. but my friend recently got married to this person she met online. it started out with just innocent online chatting till their friendship grew deeper. and this friendship was consumated further in marriage. then again, i'm not really into the brides-to-order kinda thing coz it's too instant. but if you use the internet to bridge two people together, i guess it could work. if you use it to make things flourish. coz on the other hand, you could be your realest self online too right? so it's basically not about lying all time. maybe it could work. what do you think?

I met my boyfriend online May 05, chatted for a week then finally meet up. We're still together and getting stronger. But be careful that most people online are liars and I think 90% of what they're saying is a lie. Trust me! I'm just lucky to find my man! Goodluck!

wow, good for you! yeah i know that a lot of the people online lie a lot. my friend manages this online dating site and there was this guy who sent the exact same sweet message to, like, five girls. since she manages the site she can actually read the inbox. but yeah, i guess if two people are in it for the right reasons then something incredibly great happens... :)

I believe you can find true love anywhere even on the interenet . The problem with the internet is that it is so easy to be someone else and scam someone or take advantage of someone who is still quite young . You have to be wary of who is out there .
