Well, I'm in one. And so far it's held up quite nicely, I'm sure there are some that can't be maintained, but the one I have experience with hasn't encountered many problmes.

I have a friend who has been married to his internet gal for 6 years. I bet mostly they don't last, but I know that sometimes they do, at least for 6 years.

Some do, I know people that have met and married and couples who are living together who met in chat rooms. Just be careful out there remember there are as many fakes and phonies as in real life and these ones are in a way hiding from you. There are also some very nice normal people looking for happiness

I think they are risky at best, and can be very dangerous at worst. They need to be entered into with alot of caution and care, and fairly low expectations. You can certainly try one, but if you are looking to develop the same level and quality of relationship you could develop in person, it is highly unlikely. Possibly, but it is uncommon. A few last, sure. The majority do not from all I have experienced and also read.

I think that if two people meet online, it is always best for them to meet in person soon thereafter. I don't think a relationship that is completely online is a good idea, though there are of course exceptions. You are each only seeing one side of the person, and even if that person is honest, it's not a true and complete picture of him or her.

No. my daughter met a person, sight unseen, over the internet. he flew into Nashville from Seattle. She sold her house and one vehicle. rented a u-haul and headed back to Seattle. she called from Las Vegas and announced they were married. she would not tell me his name. she knew i would check his background. She lived with this person for 6 months and filed for a divorce. My daughter did not know this person. he could have been a serial killer, a child molester or wanted in 10 states. Did she learn a lesson? i doubt it. This was husband No. 5...............

I think there are a lot of factors there besides just being an Internet relationships. It all depends on the two people. It is always best to meet up before you consider yourselves "serious". It's tough to be committed to someone who you've never seen face-to-face. And as for whether internet relationships last? As always, it depends on the people. I think in some ways internet relationships have a lot more potential...but in other ways they are sometimes misguided attempts at romance. You do not get all of the benefits of face-to-face interaction early on, and you also don't get the indicators of what the physical chemistry will be like. Good question.

It's always better for a meet up. At least it won't be that "virtual". Honestly, it would be able to clear a lot of doubts after a meet up. Like if you're wondering "Are the feelings real?" Do they last? well.. it depends. I met my ex bf online too. I was together with him for 7 years. :)
