Did you or someone you know meet your spouse/significant other online?

I did, and even more then once. It has its good sides and its bad ones, like with everything in live. The best advise I can give anybody, is to just be VERY careful and do as much checking as you can. There are many ways you can check out the other person, and asking for pics in time is a good proof you are not getting used for some cheap scam. Of course I am not talking about any indecent pics, some real pics with other friends or at a public place will eliminate a joke. Be aware there are lots of people using this wonderful media to fool others. NEVER EVER continue if there comes a request for money in any way.....and if you come to meet for real for the first time, do that at a public place. Best of all, use common sense, if it does not feel right the first way, it won't afterwards for sure.
