I thought everyone on the forum knew this, oh well.
Me and britshit are dating. We met through this website, were just chatting as friends to start with then we both ended up falling for each other and eventually falling in love. We've been together for just over 4 months now. Unfortunately because of the distance we don't get to see each other very often, and if you've read his thread you'll know he's now going to army college so it's gonna be difficult for us to see each other.
Our relationship was built up over MSN mostly, then when my laptop broke we texted each other a lot, exchanged pictures, the usual. It was a gradual process, but now we are very much together and I wouldn't swap him for the world.

Yes, we've met up quite a few times. If there wasn't a spark in person I would never have stayed with him this long. Also, if there was never the chance for me to meet him I would never have started a relationship with him.
Something told me before I met him though that we'd get on - we had similar tastes in music, comedy, films and things like that and such similar senses of humour, there was just amazing chemistry when we finally met.

Hahaha I think Darklord's sig on the other forums pretty much explains where he stands with girls...
"Get a rubber band and a lemon, then construct a slingshot and fire the lemon into your anus. You can be like the MacGyver of anality"
"Having an ipod is like having a macintosh or a volkswagen.
It's like saying 'Look at me. I'm a gay fag!"

I started to chat to a girl over the internet at around October of last year.
She's a friend of a friend of a friend that i originally met off Vampirefreaks.
Met her that December, but we both were in our own different relationships, so we were 'friends'
In February, both single, she came down to meet me and we decided to get together! We saw each other like every 2 months. She'd stay round mine for 5 days or something.
We've broken up now, she couldn't handle the distance :ahe: Balls.
We're now 'fuck buddies', apparently. We still talk often, though.

It seems Darklord was a tad naive in his young days, but weren't we all.
Having said that, the authenticity of the post is questionable. It really looks like a complete joke, surely no one in their right mind would post something like:
"The closest a girl has ever gotten to me is when a stranger girl sat next to me on a bench during lunch and our thighs touched eachothers. I pretended I didn't feel it, but inside I was savoring the moment while it lasted."
Either way the thread is hilarious.

I know two people that are in an internet relationship. I think the whole idea is ridiculous. They're always telling each other "i love you" and "omg i miss u :wail:" and stuff. In my opinion, there is no possible way you can love someone without even having met them once, but these people continue to kid themselves. I've even told them what I think of their dumb relationship, but all I get in response is "...." or "..wow" or "you don't understand". Maybe I do understand, maybe I don't. Either way it's idiotic.

One of my best friends is currently "dating" a girl that lives in Canada. I really don't care, and believe them when they say they love each other (I talk to her as well, obviously). I put them in the same court as Britshit and natalie - they've seen each other (he went up to visit for a week this summer), so it's not like they're completely separated. People like what they like. I just know I couldnt live without being able to touch who I'm dating.

False.

Since then, I have started an exclusive relationship with a guy I met online about 5 years ago. Microphones, webcams, phone calls, text messages, etc. He'll be visiting in 3 weeks.
Before this summer, I never thought I'd do an internet relationship or even a long-distance relationship, but he really is worth it. Views can change.

No, we were in a serious, emotional relationship. Long story short, I was friends with him since grade school, we "liked" each other since junior high, but we didn't get serious until our senior year of high school. We went to family functions together, celebrated anniversaries, all the standard serious boyfriend-girlfriend stuff.

Anyways, e-dating, in my mnd, is pretty lame.

Yeah, I had sex with Dave.
Also, the guy I'm dating now understands the situation. Dave and I had already signed a lease together with a third roommate. I live in a university town, so it's hard to find a new place to stay in the middle of the summer, since leases that start in August are usually all signed and taken by the end of January.
Nah, in my opinion internet dating means you're too fat and pathetic to get someone in real life.

I'm the same as Mobius, except with guys.
First one we were going to the same concert and decided to go together - ended up smooching by the end. It was great though because he was FUCKING HOT. Just a little bit crazy. So I dumped him after 4 months.
Second one we had been talking for ages (playing WoW :bangkill:) and decided to try going on a date. But there was no spark, we just had fun. So I still talk to him & see him and go out together, but just as friends.
My brother met his girlfriend on the net. He moved across the country to live with her and they're getting married soon.
Although one thing I've noticed being a girl and playing WoW: As soon as any guy realises you're an IRL girl they won't leave you alone and try to cyber with you. It's sooooo fucked up.
Hahahahaha dumped someone for someone you met over the internet. You make people who live in their mom's basements look cool.

I called him a fucking dumbass, and we got into a fight once. So then during the Christmas break, they got engaged. Then her father came back here to the states and he was stationed here. They met, talked, then she broke up with him. Now she goes to our school, and I went out with her, twice.

People fall in love, regardless of inconvenient circumstances.
Online you have the chance to connect with someone on a deeper, more emotional and intellectual level, as opposed to in person where it's primarily physical attraction first.
Considering that, it's not always purposeful. They could just be someone you im to pass the time, and it goes from there.
Also, Gimp, get laid.
I've never e-dated anyone or anything. Though, there have been girls I've sometimes talked to over the internet that I think are really cool and whatnot. I'd like to meet them at one point.
Honestly I rather meet a girl in person randomly or just know her in person and maybe end up dating. Imagine you get married to a girl you met on myspace and have kids. "Hey daddy, how did you and mommy meet?" - "Well, son, we met on the once highly popular Myspace.com website".
That's lame in my opinion.

My Dad met my step-mom online and they are the happiest couple. Personally I think it's stupid in most cases. Unless you actually see the person in person. If you just talk online and say "oh we're dating, I love him!" it's not dating or a relationship. You haven't gone on a date or even touched this person or been in touching range. Meeting online is fine as long as you see the person in real life because then it makes it real.

They become close and starting going out, it lasted about 4 months before they realised they would never ever see each other in real life.
Me being a bit of a bitch told her it was never going to work when they first starting "going out" and then said told you so when they broke up.

You say that like it's an accomplishment, when MySpace is the general slut directory. Chances are, if you found them on any forum BUT MySpace, you'd get less trash.
As for my REAL e-relations, I did have one. I think I was a sophomore in college. I thought e-relations were retarded (and e-tarded) and to this day I still do, but I had a momentary lapse in judgement. Anyway, we ended up dating for awhile... web cams... phone sex... etc. She had planned to come out in a few weeks or whatever. She was 19 and I was 20 I think (or maybe I was 19 1/2? I don't remember). THEN - all of a sudden... she dumps me for this 27 year old. 27... year old. As in, 8 years older than her 27 year old... whom she also met on the net, and who was one of my supposed "e-friends" (actually he was just an e-acquaintance, but his roomate was an e-friend of mine).
So I'm pretty pissed for about a week, and then I realize how fucking retarded I was and get over it (that and RL got way too exciting to worry about EL). She, on the other hand, ends up MARRYING THIS GUY. This is all while she lives in Virginia with her mom and 2 sisters, and he lives in Arizona with a dead end job and 2 roomates (one being a female). He ends up moving in with her... and her mom... and her 2 sisters... ... ... and brings one of his roomates (not the female). So now, there's 6 people living in this house, brought together by an e-relationship.
He turns out to be a complete fucking loser (imagine that, a 28 year old marrying a 19 year old he met online and moving cross country to live with her and her mom being a loser) and she ends up getting a divorce, and joins the army.
*** IF YOU DON'T WANT TO READ ALL THE ABOVE, SKIP TO THIS PART ***
Here's where it gets funny. After she starts going through a divorce, she realizes what a good guy I was and how she should have been giving me the chance, not him. She then tells me that she's going to be stationed in Washington. Keep in mind she lives in Virginia. I live in Illinois, which is right in the middle. She was *driving* to WA because she wanted her car on the base, so we arranged for a "pit stop."
Of course we end up fucking. She has some of the best sex she's ever had. I had some of the worst sex I've ever had, and it turns out she's a squirter (which was the only thing about the sex which didn't suck). I also find out that she's not quite as hot as she was on webcam (still the same person, but pixels make up for imperfections). Then she gets all lovey on me for awhile, which sucks... but after a bit of dodging and "oh, I'm sorry, I couldn't get to my phone"ing, she got over it all.
EDIT: *I swear on whatever holy or unholy thing that you want me to that the above is complete truth.

I've had an e-girlfriend before. I was like 15 or 16. It only lasted for a summer at the longest. We would talk on MSN for a bit then we would call each other and talk for hours, because there was nothing else to do than that obviously. Then one day she stopped answering the phone and that's basically how it ended. She wasn't online anymore too. I used a spare MSN account to add her to see if she was online, and of course she was. All she managed to say was that I "couldn't understand".
Then I found she was doing the same thing with another guy from the net at the same time. I've talked to this guy many times, and we kind of put all the pieces back together to clearly understand many things about that girl.
I got over it pretty quickly, and then realised how much of an idiot I was for going into this at first.

I had an e-girlfriend when I was ten. She said she was thirteen and I said I was fifteen. So, we just kind of talked, and I used to, like cyber all the time on AOL chatrooms. One of my friends told me that if I said I lived in Florida, that would make me cool. So I did. I told her that I lived in Jacksonville and she said ""omg me 2!" After that it was weird because she kept saying we should hang out. :indiff:
When I was 11 I started talking to this other girl. When I IMed her, she said she was 16 and I was like "Uh, me too." Then later she said "Okay, I lied, I'm 13." And I said "Um, me too!" Eventually she called me and we talked for like 5 hours and then she got her phone bill all over the fucking place and her mom called my mom. That was really fucking awkward. Then she found out I was 11 and stopped talking to me.
I e-dated Dacada for a while, met up twice.

Hehe, i get this too. Only thing is i'm male, yet i play a female character (the male nelf's make me wanna headbutt a curb.) Half the enjoyment i get from wow is messing with people, talking to them like a 'camp' prat etc.
It has its benefits if you play along (though i've never stooped to cybering) i've been 'powered' through instances countless times because of it, some send me Gold to :rolleyes:.
If they get on your nerves (to much talking or something) theres always the option of telling them the truth.

I have had e-friendships. One guy I used to talk to (meet IRL after talkng for a while because we lived in the same area) one day tells me he can't talk anymore because his e-girl friend had move from up north to be with him and said he couldn't talk to me anymore.
I was like WTF.
Then his e-girlfriend added me to msn and we got chatting just about general stuff. Then I said what is this about you telling Jason he can't talk to me, and she was like WTF I never said that.
She wanted to meet me because she didn't know anyone else in Brisbane, so i said meh my mate and I will be in the city xxx day if you wanna meet up. After spending the day with my mate and I she dumped Jason and hooked up with my mate. Funny line from that day was that she was heaps shocked when she saw Jason IRL because he was a fat ugly bastard that looked nothing like the picture he sent her. Turns out he found a photo of a hot guy on the interwebnets and sent that to her.
I then copped a massive e-abuseing from him for breaking them up. He was such a looser.
Closest I have some to a e-relationship is chatting to random guys on the internet, then meeting them IRL to be fuck buddies, but that is all either party was after so isn't really an e-relationship. Then there is my current boyfriend, though we didn't meet online. He met my friend online. She dragged me along to meet him, him and I hit it off big time and hooked up. Have been together for 7 years.

Mine's too big to fit in explosm, So I just leave it on my desktop while on Explosm.
As for E-Relationships, I used to play Graal online so I wandered around picked up a girlfriend went on a date that lasted 3 minutes we were 'gf an bf' and then we had some cybersex, then they never logged in again. Thats happend about 20 times on that game, but along time ago.
When I used to play runescape I was randomly walking and there were some chicks(Probably some kids trying to have e-sex with me in exchange for items) randomly shouting 'want 2 cyber u can be ur gf'. One time I said hell, why not? They sucked at cybering. (*takes off clothes* *Also takes off clothing* *has sex with* *Is dissapointed with the whore* etc, etc,) Though after the cyber-sex, It was fucking hilarious. They were like 'so.. i need some items.. but im pretty poor so can i please have 10000 gold? PLZ?'.
Most internet relationships suck.

What makes our long distance relationship so different?
That you guys accually met before, and my friend got engaged over a game of WoW.
I once E-dated a chick in 5th grade. She was a cousin to a girl I know. After a week I decided it wouldnt work out and we broke up. Now I'm seeing pictures of her.. and DAMN! Fuckin' latina hotty. What was I thinking?!

Meeting over the internet is as pathetic as it could get in my opinion. Sure it's one thing if you use that eharmony shit they're always advertising, but meeting on an internet forum or god forbid, an mmorpg and basically falling in love based on a fucking character a person puts on.
So no I never found love over the internet.

They met at an out of state show first.
Oh, i mean in general... Wasn't in regards to the examples people gave

Agreed. Even using that crap with the dating sites is quite pathetic. It's like making a video of yourself telling people why you would make a good other half and sending it to random people.

It's a good way for losers to hook up with other losers.
I prefer girls that I can talk to or see in person on a daily basis.

Somtimes people meet though when they arnt looking for others to date online. People on explosm for example ad ach other on msn or AOL all the time, and whos to say people cant connect on there? As long as they have real actual plans to meet up I dont see why thats wrong at all. Its the people who go on dating sites to specifilly find people online or worse the asholes that go on looking for people to cyber with and pretend theyre a different age and shit that are the fags.

That's exactly what happened with me and Tom, we added each other on MSN, just to chat and whatever. We didn't mean to fall for each other, it just kinda happened. I get embarrassed whenever I tell people how we met because of the reputation that this whole "meeting people on the internet" thing has, and my parents still don't know the truth about how we met because of that too.

I'm the same way: met a guy online, talked to him for a long time, eventually fell for each other by accident, got together and met this summer. I think I'm going to take my friend's advice on telling people how we met by saying it was "at college" because, well, I was at college at the time, so it's not technically lying.

I tell people that I'm not that close to that we met in a bar in London when I was at uni, exchanged phone numbers and email addresses and grew closer through MSN. Which is half true.
A friend of mine is dating someone they met online. She really seems to like him.

My next "real" internet girlfriend was at age 16. We played Dark Age of Camelot together on the Bors server. She was a saracen scout and I was a briton paladin.
I've gotten married on Habbo a few times...
Actually no. I haven't.
I've met someone online that I liked for a while, but never had a real relationship.

I dunno, I used to think it was really gay, but turns out you can't control where or how or when you're going to meet someone, it just kind of happens. If it happens online, then hat are you going to do? 'Yeah, you're really hot, kind, sweet, funny, smart and effectively my perfect girl, but I met you on the internet so no dice!' Seriously?

You haven't gone on a date or even touched this person or been in touching range.
Touching range?
I hope like hell you never get anywhere near a member of the opposite sex, lest felonies are commited.

You really need to stop putting your foot so far down your throat. Gizza's awesome, and pretty attractive. And she does have a valid point, about being with someone you've never seen face to face.

Yes I understand the point, and I agree with it, but "touching range" screams "stalker".

LMFAO.. When I played Runescape many years ago, I once saw this huge news post about 2 RS players meeting each other and getting married and stuff..
That's true, back in the seventh grade I was a freaking huge Runescape fan and apparently they told me 2 players actually got married IN the game... that was truly pathetic.
Runescape is also full of bitches that want to be your girlfriends to get free shit. My friend made a female character just to get free shit from other guys. He had some of the best armor and stuff in the game. It was truly something to laugh at.

Here's the issue with internet dating: it's soooo hard to tell if someone is telling the truth. How do you really know the person at the other end of the computer isn't some old fat guy who wants "meet" you in person just so he can kidnap you and commit unspeakable crimes, while at the same time breaking your heart because he/she isn't the person you thought he/she was? Exactly; you don't. I mean, people can still lie in real life, but it's harder for them to do so.
I guess some people are more lucky than others...
And I may be a little bias. It took me a few seconds to realize what WoW stood for (not even kidding).

90% of people with webcam shows live in amsterdam and you're one in 2 thousand people watching them go nude.

I guess a webcam might work, but is it seriously a good idea to show yourself to all the strangers you meet online?
Then again, my teacher just had (another) internet safety program with my class. It was hilarious.
**I mean seriously enlightening.
