Meeting people Online

So I met this girl on a online site about a year an a half ago and we both really like each other, we both talk every day, we have seen photos of each other but...is it all this worth it? I dont know how or even if people that meet on forums, if it ever works out? We live kinda far away and we are both cant get away from work and school for atleast another year.(could be more) I like her but i dont know where to go from here? {ya kinda understand what im asking?} Has anyone been in this position?
Thanks alot

No I haven't been in that position and I would not purposely put myself in that position.

If you are unable to visit them then I would not bother chatting and hoping for a relationship.

i met so many people via the internet, that i can't even keep up anymore.

Mmm. Talk dirty to my, sexy.

If you talked this much to say, girls at school for the past year and a half, you might just have a local girlfriend. Quit wasting your time.

I met my girlfriend through an online videogame in the early summer of last year. (yes im talking about WoW)
She lives in England and has a university course. I live in The Netherlands and am finishing up my university course.

We fell in love, met up, fell in love some more, met up some more and are now making plans for me to move to England later this year when im done with university. We see eachother about 2-3 weekends a month. (cheap airline tickets are awesome btw)

So in my opinion: Try to meet up and have fun, see where it goes. If you both REALLY want to be together then there will be a way. Just gotta find it. *cue cheesy music*

Yes indeed it is.

Unless you are chatting with someone close to you or you are older and are open to moving I dont think meeting people online is worth it. It just seems like a waste of time to chat with someone that you will never meet since all relationships need some sort of physical contact, you will NEVER truly know someone through the internet.
I view online chatting as just something to do, I rarely see it progressing more than that. I dont set aside time to talk to people online.

I honestly do believe that meeting people online can work but it is rare especially at a younger age.

just take it easy and see how it goes. dont rule out the possiblity of being together one day. but dont focus all your energy on it too.

There's nothing wrong in getting involved with or meeting people you've gotten to know online, assuming you have a relationship based on trust.

People lie.

Trick is to find someone who doesn't and tells it like it is.

i lie all the time... but how many people have a met online? damn the memories...

i think my craziest one was meeting nomas in vegas... he came alone that brave guy.

I have been tempted to meet some online friends, but I never can quite take the step. Probably the most likely person I would meet would be misombra. I can't imagine actually meeting a lover this way.

Met my ex girlfriend online, we ended up being together for 2 years. Situation was different though, she was only a half hour drive away from me

Well ... okay ... THANKS!

I think you are number 2 on my very short list, shorty! But mostly because I want to hold your baby. :D

What if you and Misombra became lovers?

Hah! I hadn't thought of that possibility! :D

i've met up with people IRL that i've met online. it was pretty funny each time and it always turned into a piss up. they always say to me that i'm completely different to what they expect. i'm not at all scared to meet people, sure wtf not?

Internet dating is beyond messed up. Meet people naturally!!! Meet people through a hobby or through a friend. Don't do the internet thing, it's strange and impersonal.

pww, you need to step away from the computer more often and spend more time interacting with people in the real world, face to face. Long-distance relationships are normally a bitch, but this is much worse because you haven't met in person, and you aren't likely to meet anytime soon.

Also, you can be chatting to someone for months, meet up and while you felt the spark online, it's not there in 'real life'. Then you have invested months in someone, for nothing...

I chatted to a guy for about six months before we met. And we got along in real life also....but it didn't lead to the 'romance of the century'. More close friends and 2 years on we still chat daily.
So I guess I made a good friend out of it.

Would I do it again?.....NO!

I met my current girlfriend through an online dating site. She lived less than 10 miles away, and the site said that we were "95%" compatible. After trading a few brief, friendly messages, I got her phone number and called her. That first phone call lasted about three hours, so we went out a few days later. We have been together for over six years now.
