Have you ever been in an online relationship?

I met my husband online. I met him on an MMORPG (Massive Multi Online Role Playing Game). He's from Canada and I am from the USA. We have been together 3 years, married for 2 months. We talked online for about 3 months before we sent each other pictures. We waited about 5 months (from the time we met and after we sent pictures) to talk on the phone. We didn't meet physically for over a year from the time we met online. During the time that we talked on the phone and played on the game, we also video chatted, so I knew what he looked like.
I moved up to Canada for a year and a half, 4 months after we physically met. He and I have a beautiful and loving relationship. We fell in love more then we already were after we met face-to-face. He has never acted unlike himself.
I moved back to the USA to start the immigration process which you have to go through to live and work in Canada. I have been away from him for almost a year now. We have spent over half of our relationship on the phone and on the internet. I can personally say this is not fun. I would never wish a long distant relationship on anyone.
As for my opinion on an online relationship, I'd say "don't be afraid but it is NOT easy". You can not tell a persons reactions and honesty out right. People can lie and deceive very easily online. So you just have to be very careful. But there is nothing wrong with online or long distance relationships, you just have to have the strong heart and emotions to bear the stress and loneliness of not having that person by your side.
Remember, that there are descent people out there, you just gotta work a bit harder to find them :o)

I personally wouldnt. Why? Because you never know what the other person on the other side is doing. They could be lying to right in front of your face. Unless you met that person way before you met them online it would be an ok option

no i havent. i probably would i was able to. i just think those relationships would be easier than 'real life'

I have, and it's totally dangerous. A person can say and pretend to be what he wants you to think he is. When you meet him/her totally different person. I wish I had listen to my friends...

Depends. I had an online bf name Rich and he was cool. But then his friend Gabe was a scuz and wouldnt leave me alone. just be careful.

It is worth it, to a point. You learn that not everybody is who they seem, and even tho some people dont tell the truth(like an ex of mine), the ones that do are the ones worth keeping :)

I was with someone for 2years that i met online and i am seeing another now, I have mixed thoughts about it. But i wouldn't have a relationship with someone that #I have never met in person and thats purely over the internet because thats werid

online relationships are kinda hard, ive been in one and i wouldnt say im still in one now, but its actually a distant relationship now, she lives 6 hours away and we got closer, i would say if your gonna get into an online relationship, go ahead, because it may lead to something better. like what happened to me, but now i live near the girl i met online, see it got better. i would say try it, and if it doesnt work out then get outta it if you want to. im just saying. good luck :]

only if i could meet up with them
ive been asked out by a guy ive never met but i said no cause he was a player
lol
hope it helps :)

Yea I've been in an online relationship. Two to be exact, and I wouldn't advise you to take that chance. Because they always claim to be something their not. They may genuinely like you. But you'll never know the truth about them.
