Hi! There’s a thread here where people talk about it a little: http://blahtherapy.com/user-groups/girl-talk/forum/topic/girls-have-you-ever-fallen-for-someone-online/

In answer to your question, I think it’s becoming more and more common and acceptable. You just have to apply a little common sense, hehe.

I’m with someone I met on Twitter almost 4 years ago and we’re literally from different sides of the planet, but we moved to be together and it’s awesome. Having said that, there are plenty of horror stories out there. Nothing is black and white ;D

I would just make sure both people in the relationship understand that since distance and other factors are getting in the way, that keeping up communication is SO key. It’s key in every relationship, but it’s imperative to Online/Long Distance relationships. I think they can work, it’s just different for everyone. Things like Skype to where you can actually see them and talk to them can be a great tool.

Online dating is a really grey area. There’s no real way of knowing if you’ll have the serious spark in person, no matter how sparky you are online, and there ARE risks involved. I think you should talk to a person for a decent amount of time online before you meet them in person, and if/when you do meet them, do so in a public, safe place. But getting to know someone on a purely conversational level can have its benefits!

i think it works. because we don’t have any physical obligation, we can hook up anytime when we are free. its good too because relax the mind, plus it helps us to know new people. and the best thing is that we normally don’t bother too much after online break ups.

It’s a risk.. With an online relationship one of the most things that become quickly a problem is trust. I had a bad luck in my first online relationship, because people (for not saying his friends) kept meddle in our relatioship. I was receiving fake messages from them, and so he did. We broke up pretty soon, tired of this situation, because we didn’t trust each other at all, and only months later we discovered what actually happened.

It’s a little hard keeping for so long an online relatinoship, that’s what I’m saying, especially after at least three months, but it’s not impossible! I know a couple that met online nine years ago and now they’re getting merried, so.. Never give up the hope!
