Me personally ive been dating my boyfriend for 3years now. I met him on Yahoo Pool. Our relationship is great. Alot people find meeting a mate online can be bad, am curious to how many people are dating someone whom they met online? HOw is the relationship? What are your experiences? Do you regret meeting someone online? Would you reccomend it? I think their are many advantages and dis-advantages. For example, as i said ive been dating my bf for 3years now, i love him, could not imagine anyone else. However the whole long distance relationship sucks! I always have to travel to europe cause hes living there. He is a Nigerian living in europe and for a Nigerian to get a visa to Canada is not so easy! If only one has about $10 000 for a visa :( Anyways enough sad story, whats your view on meeting people online, have they been good? bad?
