    Is it possible to fall in love over the internet??

    I have been talking to this girl for about 2 weeks now,in private messages, texts and also on the phone..she is madly in love with me. We are planning to meet soon. I love her too and we haven't even met. Its so weird but feels so right. We are even talking about spending the rest of our lifes together and the future. I never felt like this before.

    Imo, no.

    You don't know this person. You've fallen in love with the idea of being in love, not the person.

    This may be harsh but I think ye are both just lonely and looking to be in a relationship and it's more about having someone to love than the person.
    I'm not saying it won't work out between you two. But do I think it's love? No.

    Hi OP I am happy for you that you met someone and hope it works out but don't rush into anything and try not to get your hopes up too much its early days I agree with Ash your in love with the idea of her..get to know her face to face before planning a life together

    Hope it works out :)

    Hi OP

    It doesn't sound like you love each other. Love is something that grows over time IMO. 2 weeks is just too short.

    That's not to say that your infatuation with this girl won't turn into love.

    It sounds like you're off to a good start though, so best wishes

    Don't think so mate. Internet is a very easy mark for scammers also. Don't be surprised if you get asked for money to help with something.

    To me, love is knowing all your partners faults and not minding them. You don't even know what this girl looks like in real life, never mind what her bad habits, or any of the millions of other little things that create or break a relationship with someone. You can certainly fancy them and be full of lust but love? No way.

    Online dating is a fad nowadays. I think there are some opportunities on the net, as they say love happens in the most unexpected place and time

    I don't think 2 weeks where you spend 24/7 actually *together* is enough to truly be in love, so no, I don't think either of you are in love.

    I met a guy through a chatroom associated with this website (it's no longer in use). We talked for a few months before meeting. We both really liked what we knew of each other online but we were realistic enough to know that what we liked online may not necessarily translate in person. Thankfully it did and we've been together almost 5 years now.

    OP, you both need to relax. You are still getting to know each other and until you meet in person there is no way to realistically say if there is *anything* there, let alone love. Take it easy and enjoy getting to know this girl. You don't need to put any unnecessary pressure on yourselves.

    Hope it works out for you.

    Go for it you nothing to lose. But be careful do not tell this person exactly where you live in case she turns out to be a nut, then you will be in real trouble.

    I think you have a good foundation but should take it slowly and really
    get to know each other.

    OMG!!!! put your foot on the breaks uve chated for 2weeks... hello you couldnt possibly know anything about her after 2 weeks.. not trying to be mean here but its very unhealthy .. maybe both of you should talk to professionals as thinking your in love and talking about spending your life together after 2weeks in anything but normal
