I was wondering today what people had to say about this. Do you think you could fall in love with someone who you've never met in person, but have spoken to for a few months online and over microphone and such? And also - do you think you could fall in love with someone after 2 months of knowing them if both people were very open about liking and having intense feelings for one another? This is under the same scenario as above - never met in person, but spoken a lot over the internet over mic. Thanks
After such a short period? I know its been asked a million times, but are there any signs one can follow to tell if you are in fact in love or just confused by other more infatuatory emotions (is that even a word? ). One other factor I forgot to mention - if I were almost certain of being able to meet that person who I thought I may be in love with in the near future, would affect whether you could be in love with that person or not? Thanks again =] Hope all that made sense
Oh yeah it would affect it. I mean, like your last comment you don't need physical contact and all but the promise of what goes along with it is pretty cool. Right?
What do you mean "the promise of what goes along with it?" I was actually thinking - would it be easier to fall in love with someone WITHOUT physical contact because often I think that being with or doing certain sexual things with someone may cause a flood of emotions which maybe misinterpreted as love? Without that, one ends up truly liking the person for both their personality and looks rather than feeling lusty after that person.
sure it possible to fall in love with someone you have never in fact you fall in love with the person not what they look like cause in most cases you fall in love before you ever see pic of them
It's not a question of how you connect, only that you connect. If you have the mental and emotional maturity to love without physical contact then it's perfectly possible.
Thanks for all the reassurance. It's been something I've been thinking a lot about lately, but worried that maybe I was getting my emotions muddled up because of the possibility that one could only fall in love through physical contact (and other things of course). I have seen several pictures of the guy and find him EXTREMELY attractive =] There just seems to be this strong mutual attraction between us that to me, seems so much more than infatuation or mere 'liking-more-than-a-friend'. Oh and also - do you think it would be possible to fall in love after such a short period? About two and a half months? Thanks again.
More and more people are falling in love over the internet everyday. Hell, even I did. People sometimes just click just after being introduced. Ever feel like you've known a person for years when you just met them? I was with someone for two years that I met in a chat room. Sounds odd, I know, but being online is one of the most purest forms of communication as (I believe) we have far less barriers up around us as we would when someone could read our body language. Kinda a pain in the ass sometimes, but meh...worked out damn good. We aren't together but not because of the distance, but we just were two passionate people that loved to argue too much. She's still my best friend even now. Bottom line? Don't let me tell you what can and can't be done - do things your way and see what works. There isn't anyone that can tell another person if they are in love or even what love means to that other person.
Okay =] thanks for all the reassurance guys. I'm actually surprised that no negative feedback has come out thus far. I was just curious as to what people thought about the whole interweb love thing. Thanks
It is I used to really like the guy, but now have my attention turned elsewhere Hot Fuzz was really great by the way =] Enjoy!
yes of course, love is of the mind. you don`t need to touch their body to know you love who they are. it`s not conscious but no matter where i met the person, i wouldn`t be physical with them in any way, unless inlove.
well in my opinion it can but it would have to be a really strong connection to happen so quickly so i wouldent get too serious quite yet...
Right on! I've done the same.... I met this guy through a myspace forum. We began talking everyday about everything. He quickly became my best friend. And we decided to meet. About five months after we met online, we met in person. I did love him. I knew it long before I ever agreed to meet him. Things didn't work out between us. He had a lot of emotional issues to deal with. And I was in a bad place as well. So we went our seperate ways. But the prospect of us meeting.... having that set date and counting down the days... it made things a whole lot more exciting. And things were really great when we did meet. Of course, that's my experience... you need to find your own way, as mr_curve said. Good luck!!
