We are going increasingly often we fall in love with people you do not I ever met. It's good enough a word, read in a moment of solitude ... It's enough to give a picture over on us hypnotized. The thought turned to flickering screen, where we recognize our plan ... We then find ourselves increasingly convinced that somewhere in the other hemisphere of the earth is half our heart and soul and we spend every day making plans as to overthrow the world. The Internet works wonders. People who otherwise would have had no chance to cross their paths and fall in love ever known, pressed the giddy large network hopes North to South and from West to East. How many of these loves are, however, the chance to survive and come out victorious from the struggle with distance, the cold waiting, jealousy, material hardships, the roots that keep us tied to a particular place, the country, said a word the language of our fathers ? Less painful. And yet, around me, singles stubbornly possible pair to look anywhere other than next to them. Throw in the great wave of love missives virtual bottles and, if he finds someone, whoever that is said lucky. It's a competition of their own. I know because I run marathons myself all illusion. And only after I've worn in endless race I realized that the game of love that ignores distances no medals. Just enjoy that from time to time, unacceptably slowly, one reaches the destination. Those are exceptions that prove the rule ...

I think it's easy to fall in love on a picture (we made or showed to us). Esp. if it's the kind of picture we have in mind or we feel lonesome or are in need for some attention. Also: some people fall in love every day again, others just seldom. There is a big difference between falling in love with someone you met by the internet or someone you met in real life (overseas). I wonder how many people who do meet by the internet and do fall in love also visit eachother in real life! I am married overseas and my husband lives in his country, I am living in mine. What is possible in future we will have to wait and see. My daughter met her bf by the internet. They do meet in real life too. He comes over here, she goes over there (USA). They both said they did recognize eachother in real life from the very first start. Nothing was different. So I assume if you are honest, yourself on the internet, when you meet, when you have contact, it works in real life as well. Although you can't smell a person by the internet, and bodysmell is important to me, but I met my husband in real life (not by the internet).

I am in relationship with a boy from town 120kms away from me. We were best friends and one day he just kissed me. Now we are meet almost every month, but we miss each other. It is very hard to resist, but after that when you see your love is so gorgeous that you forget all the trobles and distances.

I don't think distances really matter if you really believe in love and the ones you love. But yes it can be really tough on an average guy/gal. Because apart from peer pressure, we crave for physical presence, like being in constant touch, wanting loved ones around is very normal thing for us as humans. But if you really strong willed and have that connect, you can tide through low phases though it is never easy. Also, it is quite fashionable to fall in love online. How many really mean it is quite debatable. Today more and more people live in isolation and feel insecure, they probably need emotional anchor and find social networking sites as a handy tool that way. So love in romantic sense or not, most folks online, need emotional care and comfort to tide through their life's battles. Cheers :)
