I dont believe in it. You can make good friends online but its just not right to have relationships like that.  |

How could an internet relationship work adn have any meaning? You have no idea of the person's persoanlity, morals, ideals, etc, except for what they tell you, and how do you know that's true? Many many people out there will claim to be a certain person adn act a certain way, when they really are totally decieving you. I think they are for the most part pointless.  |

Usm is an example of a place where online relationships have worked out. Athough it's odd, and probably have a good proability of not working out, what do you mean you dont know the persons personality or morals, etc. ? That's ALL you know of them hoping that they're speaking the truth of everything.  |

Yes that's the point. "hoping they are speaking the truth". Here on USM I hope-and believe-that people do. But many other places they don't. |

ok thank you guys :) i was going to post this a while ago but i wasn't currently in an online relationship but now that i am i wasn't sure what your guys opinions on them were... i agree with you dreamer poet that if you are in 2 regaurdless of real life or online it is cheating. i like to believe what people tell me and hold it as true especially on this site because here pretty everyone feels like family to me and i tell the truth so i exspect that in return but that is my opinion.thanks again for your opinions :).  |

I think sometimes online relationships work out... but sometimes the person is totally different irl. It is good if you know the same people online and have met those people before. So then it is more real. Also it is good if you can meet up in a group before getting serious. YES, I do consider having an irl AND online relationship CHEATING. |

My sister just met a guy from North Carolina, and they're in love. I think the internet is a better way in getting to know someone. I have nothing against it.  |

I treat it as if it was a "46" year old pedophile. Better safe then sorry.  |

Personally, I don't have online relationships. But more power to the people who do!  |

i think both involve emotions(of more then just the 1 person) so i do consider both of them relationships... and i don't find it right when people will be involved with someone in RL then have an internet relationship on the side sometimes they work out sometimes they don't... it's VERY VERY VERY VERY rare for a teenager who has one(and they seem to be the ones who have them the most) for them to work out because they can't afford to see the person talk to the person on the phone and are usually not old enough to understand with each person you meet online what you see isn't always what you get...sometimes people lie...not all people just some  |

I don't really take online relationships seriously. How can you call not seeing the person a relationship? No offense to anyone, but that is kind of dumb. You could be falling in love with a killer, or rapists or something, and you wouldn't ever know the difference. Lilwicca  |

Im not in one or anything, but I think they can work out, but it cant stay online forever..gotta get out there and spend some time with them in person. People are too paranoid, I have all kinds of friends online that I talk to on the phone and everything, if any of them is a 46 year old rapist or something, they got some good voice changing skills lol  |

you could start by leaving your house, going to the movies, and looking for a girl there. if that doesn't work, look into the singles in the paper. i think being with someone on the internet should be the last resort. if that doesn't work, i can't help ya. learn the game, and you'll be straight  |
