To me the difference of love online and love in person is that love online is based on novelty of the idea of being in love. When you're online you aren't as cautious because you're not looking anyone in the eye. Its easier to say things. Inhibitions are non existent when you're online. When you find love face to face you tend to be more cautious because your inhibitions are present because most people aren't comfortable with romance or sexuality. That's why Internet relationships became so popular. It gave the people that were introverted, the ability to be anything they wanted without having to prove themselves. Kind of a fantasy if you will. When we have a face to face relationship there isn't much room for pretending or making up things. What you see is what you get. Online you can be anything or anyone you fantasize about. Its only when the topic of meeting face to face do things become difficult. There are exceptions though. Some people have been as honest online as they would be face to face. These types of online relationships could make for face to face romance. However if you begin lying online it allows the other person to begin to doubt your honesty. When this happens the relationship is doomed because it was created out of lies and misconceptions. No matter where you find love my advice is to keep it honest. Because you never know when and where fate is going to put the love of your life. dl

Internet affairs have no love at all - i think love is developed when you are with the person. You will need to spend time together - not over the phone or video. no love will develop over that kind of relationship.. you will both eventually get tired of talking and chatting, and typing! I think the only thing that will develop in this cases are frienships... the thought of you having a person to listen to you all the time with your problems, and issues and you being comfortable that this person do not know you, your family, your friends to even scatter your secrets, right? there can be friendship, a platonic love - but the moment you see each other, perhaps - you will realize that you do not have a deeperlove for each other like what you think after all. Internet is ok to meet people - but you will never get to know a person too well over the internet!

hi meimeibaobei well I guess one could fall in love over the net but to me it seems really chancy as you really do not know if the person is telling you the truth about anything. You could not see his face, hear his voice,tell by his being if he is truthful or a liar. I think love over the internet is chancy and a lotof times when the girl does meet this guy reality kicks in and she finds out that he is a jerk from the git go and a dangerous jerk. I think I would rather go with face to face reality and know just what sort of person who is courting me, not have to just accept that things are all wonderful.

Well, there is no difference. In reality, you see people first and on internet later. If you are in love, in any case you are in love and he bind is the same. Love is any of a number of emotions related to a sense of strong affection and attachment. The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings which comes from heart whether you are online or face to face. You know them gradually and trust is what build the relationship and in both case if trust and loyalty is not there in relationship, there is no love. Love comes with that. Thanks.

Many people are doing online dating because they want easy love. Online dating can't really distinguish the real characteristic of a person. Cause you can hide it and sometimes they deceive other in creating a new person.
