Zona76 Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 They don't have an on-line forum in here. I wish they did. This is when you meet in a chat-room or game site and become close friends to the point quite soon the feelings are more than of friendship. I met my husband in a music exchange/chat room. We talked over 2 years on the net before we met in real life. And it was a magical dream come true. I'd love to hear of other stories. Are you still waiting to meet? Do you feel strange after returning home from your visit to meet once again with reality? Talk to me. Let others know it can work. This is the real Long Distance of Relationships.

Star Gazer Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 There is a chat room feature here, I hear. But you have to pay for it. Other than online dating sites like Match or eHarmony, I'm no longer interested in meeting guys through this sort of venue. Link to post Share on other sites
Phumfeinz Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 See my post below. I'm hoping for a happy ending. Link to post Share on other sites
Lyssa Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I met my bf through an online chat. Actually we met through a friend. The more I got to know him, I realised that he is my dream. We have a lot of things in common and of course there are things we don't agree on but I think that makes our r/ship even more challenging! Apart from that, some of our characteristics are the same. Only thing is, when he gets excited he talks loudly - which often interprets (to me anyhow!) that he is angry, in actual fact is, he's just excited! LOL. We communicate via sms, phone calls and of course, Skype. Webcam really helps for us both and it gets very frustrating when we both can't spend time together on cam. It's very complicated. Our situation, anyhow for now, we make it work. I'm planning a trip to where he is from. I haven't been there and heard so many stories from my bro and his wife since they have been there a lot of times. So I hope it will be magical as well!! I have a feeling it would be!

Trialbyfire Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I only did this once. Never again. While nothing is guaranteed, the best methodology for me is to meet someone as a friend, get to know who they really are, then see where it leads if there's chemistry. Anyone who's capable of maintaining either an LDR or an online relationship, I have to give you credit for being able to do so. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Zona76 Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 It IS tough TBF. It's hard and depressing but when the messenger opens and your love is there.... you realize it's worth all the pain to have THIS feeling. We're together now. My Man and me. And yet in a way I miss that feeling. The rush of excitement and the smile ... But you can learn about each other in an online relationship. When all you have is conversation, you tend to talk more and you discover. Link to post Share on other sites
Trialbyfire Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Well, I'm glad to see it worked out for you Zona. Once again, me, never again. Link to post Share on other sites
catrocks Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I had one of those... was my first proper relationship I guess. Anyways it didn't work, but I think it was because of the fact he was a weirdo rather than the fact that we met online Do you feel strange after returning home from your visit to meet once again with reality? Yes.... but this applies in all LDRs, not just ones that started online. You feel icky!! And in 2.5 weeks my LDR will be over, it will just be an R Link to post Share on other sites

I met my husband when I am in modeling business. He started writing me. At first i just play it and not thinking anything serious Because he gave me his number and so i call him, He couldn't believe i would call though because it is long distance. But i did and he though it was amazing that i didn't ignore him. But anyway we are happily marriage now and couldn't go back to my old job as my husband is jealous as hell:-) Link to post Share on other sites
smoochygirl Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Before i forgot, he just saw my working picture before he write me a letter when i called him he was surprise and couldn't believe it. So we start meeting online more and on the phone. Link to post Share on other sites

So we start meeting online more and on the phone. Woah! You called him out of surprise! I bet he really enjoyed that! With what you described above, I wonder how often that happens? I wonder what the success rate is of people that meet online as compared to face to face? Link to post Share on other sites

But it work for me but i think if both of us didn't have patient then were probably not where we are right now. It takes a lot of faith and patience to be in this kind of R and honestly i never wanna go back in the kind of situation it is truly hard to be away with someone you really love and care for.

I met a few guys I like and dated online. Unfortunatly they did not work out the way I hoped. I would not like to online date again due to my experiances. If I met someone from online again I would just stick the label to friendship. Its difficult after visiting a LDR and then having to come home and miss that comfort. Especially if the LDR is from a diffrent country than you. Link to post Share on other sites
