anythings possible.

That's depends on how long he had known her and let's hope she's honest about herself.
-
NO NO NO NO
-
If he feels it then it is true for him. Whether it is requited is another question.
-
He's 18, he's in love with the idea of being in love, lets hope all goes well when he finally does meet her, people are not always what they seem :o)
-
He could be in love with the person she SAYS she is and the way she presents herself. But he can't know for sure until he meets her, which he should do in a PUBLIC PLACE during DAYLIGHT hours for a BRIEF first meeting (for safety reasons). For one thing, he'll be able to see if she is actually 18 or not.
-
Yes it is possible. A lot of what we call love takes place in the mind and the heart and you don't need to see someone to feel that. Of course he is young and they do tend to fall easily. Now whether it will stand the test of time and meeting is another story.

Possible, but not probable. Daughter did the same. man flew across the country to meet her. they drove back to Seattle. in less than a year they were divorced. All things seem rosy on the internet. a person can picture themselves as one-man casonova and make you believe anything. And, lets not forget about the perverts. they are plentiful on the web. Like i said, its possible, but not probable.

Of course. I met someone online. We became best friends, then realized we were falling for each other. I came to Texas to meet her, and while I was here, asked her to marry me. We've been married for over a year now. She's 50 and I'm 65, so it wasn't exactly an infatuation. You can get to know people very, very well online, not just how they look, or how they behave in some social context, but the real person inside. I got to know Vicky from the inside out, her character, her personality, her soul. Her physical appearance was almost irrelevant.

I dont think so, time would tell
-
i think if you take the physical contact out of a relationship it is easier to become attached to someone for their personality, which to me is more important. but how many of us at age 18 really knew what love was?
-
Of course it's possible. How do you fall in love with somebody? by talking to them and falling in love with the PERSON. you don't have to physically HAVE somebody to love them. You should think yourself lucky he told you. And you should be happy that he's in love.
-
Yes. He obviously likes her personality, and this is the MOST important thing for most. They talk daily, so their conversation hasn't ended. I assume they have exchanged relatively recent pictures, but even without them, there's no reason to believe he doesn't love her. To be IN love with her, though, will require actual meeting face-to-face, and getting to know each other through the real relationship dynamic, which may be MUCH shorter since they've already had so many conversations. (BTW: I had a two year relationship with a lady I met online, and as we were breaking up, I met another, who later moved in with me, got engaged a year or so later, a couple of years later we set the date, and we have now been married for four years. LD relationships CAN work, as can meeting and loving someone online. It DOES help immensely that both of my long-distance relationships were only three hours away, and we could get together - physically - once every four-six weeks. ;-) )
-
Yes.
-
There are many types of love......so it is possible....
-
Sure. I met my first real love online. Lived with him for 3 years. :)
-
very much so
-
yep, im getting married and have a son and one on the way to someone i met online - wish him luck from me x.
-
Yep. As long as they arn't lying to each other. Didn't you watch napoleon dynamite? ;)
-
Only time will tell.
-
At 18, any kid can fall in love with a broom in a skirt
-
Anything is possible, so yes.
-
Yes its very possible, especially if they have exchanged pictures
-
Yes it is possible, and so much more common than you think. without being face to face, you can be completly sincear, without fear of rejection or humiliation. you can be yourself whether you are shy ect. its a good thing
-
All the kids on the site say it is possible because thats how they do things, via 1s and 0s. Its not a real relationship, more like a fantasy.
