Is it possible to fall in love with somebody over the internet and telephone, without ever actually meeting?

Question

them face to face?

Answer 1

I mean, it's not  impossible, but just improbable. I doubt you're actually "in love" as you think you are, but you shouldn't get married or anything before you meet him.

Answer 2

It happens....I know people who've met on forums and ended up married

Answer 3

only if you are stupid and naive. how can you possibly know the truth about who you are dealing with ?

you could be falling in love with an ax murderer. this is how young girls end up being abducted, or worse.

Answer 4

I think you have to meet face to face otherwise you have fallen in love with what you want that person to be. They might totally turn you off when you meet face to face.

Answer 5

One question; Have you ever seen "You've Got Mail"?

I haven't, but I think it basically answers your question.

Realistically, I would say yes, but it wouldn't be "real love," like the cosmic kind that's in the movies. Of course you can get attached to someone fairly easily, but the definition of "love" varies from person to person.

Answer 6

I'd imagine so.

Answer 7

no I think it essential to be around the person because you get the bad with the good. you need to know that you can stan/accept all the bad quailtys to have lasting love. otherwise its just infatuation which fades fast!

Answer 8

hmm i think some people just might or least a strong like but i think real love comes with spending time together

Answer 9

ya feelin it ?

Answer 10

No, emphatically.  But it is entirely possible to be so infatuated with the perception.  Remember this is a dangerous pasttime.  I am aware of many such cases, sometimes destroying homes and certainly hopes.  The perception you are experiencing vicariously is only that, a perception.  Reality is often the obverse.
