Met yes, gotten into a relationship: no thank you, I'm afraid.
Yes, most of my friends are from meeting online on bbs/forums and met them in person. All of them I met with my best friend at a public place for safety. My fiance I actually meet through a dating website.
Yes! I have had some long-term relationships with women I've met online. (7 years) in one instance. When you get right down to it, "It's not about (where) you meet but (who) you meet!" It's kind of arrogant for some people to believe they are the only "worthwhile people" online.
The people that are online are the same ones in the nightclubs. attending sporting events, shopping at the mall, working and paying bills..etc Just as there are bad apples in all those locations you'll find the same kind online as well. There were liars and cheaters long before the internet was invented. No matter how you meet ultimately you want to take your time to get to know a person before becoming emotionally invested.
Yes, quite a few, and some have been great friends for years. I've only married one . We have a daughter together now, and he's the best daddy my son could ask for. Never have tried the online dating sites -- I found him while playing poker on Myspace.
Yes..we've been online friends for 3yrs before we decided to meet...and it was fun. We've got a lot of things in common, and we're still friends\(wink wink) until now.
Many! I am meeting someone tonight! (not a date, business).
Yes. I married my husband after four years of chatting online and a month long visit.
It worked for us, but it doesn't work for everyone.
