Story

Here we go. I met this guy in a chat. We hit it off had lots to say to each other. We continued to chat back and forth as much as we could being that he was in Japan and I was in Texas. After a couple weeks of on-line we made a phone call. He was everything I wasn't looking for. I didn't go on-line to find a man I went to chat and have a good time. But when I met him it was like oh my here's the one. We continued on the phone and computer for a few months then we decided to met in person. This was really hard to do because he was stationed in another country. Well I took the blind leap of faith and Moved to Japan. I wouldn't have traded anything for this experience except now it's over. I truly love this man but he's going through some hard times and he needs time to think. So I am going home to Texas to nothing. I left my great job, house, sold my car. i did everything all wrong. He wants to continue talking and I think I will. Because even though we can't work right now due to problems in our lives doesn't mean one day in a few years we might not get back together. I don't ever plan on dating anyone from the internet again. I found my soul mate when I wasn't expecting to. I don't regret the things I've done to be with him. I only regret that he himself hit a spot in his life that I can't help him through. Even if we never get back together I got to come to Japan and met new people and make new friends.

The only thing I can tell you is to follow your heart, and take it really slow.....

i met THE most wonderful guy on the internet, he is everything i always dreamed of. he is intelligient, has common sense, and he can be extremely sweet when he wants to be. i met *mark on a teen pen pal website, i read his profile and he said he was quiet and shy just like me, and i really liked his morals, like he doesnt smoke, drink, or do anything illegal like that, he had just graduated high school, so he was 18, pretty close to my age which will be 17 soon, so i decided to write him. he responded back, and we have been corresponding thru instant message for about 2 weeks now. everyday for the past two weeks we have talked for 5+ hrs a day, and ive grown very fond of him, maybe even as more than friends. neither of us have many friends, and since i am on Summer break from school, and he is just waiting until he has to leave for college, we have all the time in the world to talk except when we are working, which always conviniently happens to be close to the same times, so we get to talk often.

another reason that i wrote *mark was because he lived fairly close, i live in northern illinois, and he lives in southern illinois, and when he leaves for college, he is coming up here, and will be living just 10-15 minutes away from me. he asked me if i would like to pursue a relationship when he got up here, and i accepted, i was so happy to see that he felt the same about me.

it has happened really fast, and its going to be hard to explain to people, but him and i just clicked. we have so much in common, ive never had a bf before and i really think i want him to be my first, and i totally thank the internet for that.

~*love and peace to all*~

Story

It all started 2 1/2 years ago. We had met through a chat room and just started talking. I began finding out so much about him. We had a lot in common. We exchanged pictures after talking a few times. Now after the 2 1/2 years have gone by the pictures mean nothing. I found myself falling in love with him. I get that tingling feeling when I talk to him. Knowing I'll get to talk to him in the evening gets me through the day quickly. One day I decided to email him exactly how I felt about us. I had told him I could see myself spending the rest of my life with him. After I sent it, I was worried I'd scare him away. I received a letter the next day back from him and he said that there was nothing I could do to scare him away and that he feel's the same way. Our work schedules are too busy right now for us to meet. But one day we will and we'll be together forever. I hope anyone that has the chance to find that special someone can meet them online. You learn the real person in the beginning.

Story

I met the most wonderful guy in the world, on May 7, 1999. I was talking to friends in a chatroom, when one of the guys sent me to a site to see his picture. I watched as all the pictures came up one by one until, finally, his picture was there. But there were a few more, so I waited to see the others. The last picture is one that is forever etched in my mind, for that would be the man of my dreams!! I don't know how long I kept going back to that chatroom, hoping to see this "NightGuy" in there, but on May 7th, I logged in, and there he was! Right away, I jumped in the conversation. They were planning a road trip (that never happened!!). Everybody was pairing up, so I asked who I was to be with, and the next thing I saw was....NightGuy>ME! ME! ME! And that's all it took! We began a casual conversation in private, until it was time for him to go. Then we made plans to meet the next night, in the chatroom. This went on for about 8 months. We communicated in the chatroom, on ICQ, by phone, and sent packages to each other. There were a lot of things going on in our lives (unhappy marriages, etc.) that kept us from giving 100% to our relationship, but I was determined to make it work. I didn't know how, but one day, we would be together. On January 15, 2000, we met face to face, and it was the most wonderful thing in the world! The look on his face was absolutely priceless. We spent the weekend together, with my family and my daughter, and had a great time. But the weekend didn't last long enough. I wanted to go with him, but we both knew that wasn't possible. So he went back to Michigan with my heart in his hands. But after a few weeks, we realized that we couldn't be apart any longer, so I decided that the major move in my life would be to move to Michigan. A very risky thing to do for a Southern Mississippi woman!! But I had to be with him. Everyone thought I was nuts, but it didn't matter. I moved to Michigan on February 28, 2000. Matt and I were married on June 16, 2001. And it doesn't get any better than this!! Our children are happy with each of us, and we are well on our way of making our dreams come true!!

Hello. This is to tell everybody that on-line dating is a waste of time. It's not safe, anyone can be whoever they want to be. You need all of your five senses when seeking out a friend or more. The computer doesn't offer that. It's simply a way for the desparate to seek out other people with problems. I gave it a shot and all the women I met, with the acception of a few had issues, serious issues. Hey, if you want to hide beind a wall for weeks or months, that's your business. (And decide what or what not to tell people.) You can open up to someone on-line, but because it's just words on screen, the reciever can translate it into another meaning. Give it up, it sucks. Get out and climb a mountain or something. Ok?

Story

i am 16 yrs old, and in my life i have never had a bf, never kissed anybody, havent done anything like that, and unfortunately, many people look down on it, i guess because so many teens are dating so early nowadays, and i prefer to wait for the right person for me. a few months ago though, i went onto a chat website (i spend entirely too much time on computers) and i started talking to somebody who emailed me because i lived just about 30 miles away from him. we talked for hours, we found that we had a lot in common. we eventually started talking on the phone, and we never stopped talking. this summer, all i have done is wake up at about noon everyday, he would call, and we would talk on the phone until i went to work at 5 pm, and then when i got home later, we would chat online for even longer. we both have many of the same opinions on things, we have a lot in common that we like to do, and better yet, we are also the same age.

eventually, he told me that he liked me as more than a friend, over the phone. i had made a promise to myself to stay out of online relationships. i have already been in two that went absolutely nowhere and ended badly, and i feel that i sometimes get tricked easily into thinking that somebody likes me that much. but non the less, i did like him, but we were not a couple, we hadnt even met, and now i had realized that i wanted somebody for a boyfriend who can be there for me both emotionally and physically. then he brought up the idea of us meeting. it took some thinking, but i finally convinced my parents to drive me there to pick him up, and his mom would come pick him up later that night. we spent the day together biking, and it was great! we talked nonstop, even in the car ride back to my house when it was just him, me, and my dad.

we had so much fun, we went biking off road, then we went for ice cream, then we raced each other, and then we parked our bikes and took a walk for awhile on some nature trails off the prairie path. we found a picnic table buried in the woods, and we sat there and talked for awhile, just the two of us, no one else was around. eventually, i ended up in his arms, and i told him "i feel really close to you," and he said "i feel close to you too, i love you," and then he kissed me, my first kiss, and it was soooo wonderful, we were just laying there on the picnic table kissing and the sky was so blue and the sun was shining, and the moment was just too perfect. then we left, while holding hands, and went to pick up dinner, and we ate at the park, then we rode home and his mom was there to pick him up. he means sooooo much to me, i've never been happier to have waited for the right person longer than a lot of teenagers have.

for everyone on here who says internet relationships are dangerous and awful, keep in mind that a lot of them turn out well. my boyfriend and i met on the internet, and our relationship is awesome. i realize you have to be careful, but sometimes people like me who are shy and dont make friends easily find it easier to do online, and dont judge until you've been in the situation, you never know where or how you might meet somebody
