[God's Hand]

I met the greatest girl in the world online. We were truly made for each other. If it hadn't been for the internet, I would have never met her, and I can't imagine my life without the experience I had.

Sometimes you're lucky and someone finds you. Sometimes things are just meant to be between two people. If the internet helps you find that person, then what's the big deal?

I'd rather meet a girl through fate, like something happens to both of us that leads us to each other. Who cares how it happens.

At least she let you know

Hey man, sounds like things arent working out for you right now either, sorry to hear, but keep tryting man.

And as far as my story goes, I called the girl on my break today only to have the phone answerd and cut off immediatly, a gave it a couple minutes and tryed again, with the same result. I got home from work and saw her on MSN, she told me she was currently in a big argument with her parents and that she couldent talk, so I asked her to call me tommorow on my break, so I hope she calls...

Good looking but man, that blurb already gives me a bad feeling =P. At any rate, yeah, good looking looking for others on the internet isn't a myth. It actually happens.

I have to echo the sentiment that you should use online services (or meet online) as a jumping point. There isn't any reason not to but as others have pointed out, it should be a jumping point at most (online in general I mean). Face to face time is really key and a primarily online relationship can just as many if not more headaches (and to be honest, it's a little impersonal).

I met Shouta online, does that count?

If Matlock is male, then no.

I am becoming increasingly aggravated by the amount of entertainment I provide you with, Cubsfan

Gotta have fun with it

Only problem with dating sites is they all say they're free and wait until you sign up before dropping the pricetag to email :lol. It sucks too cause I looked at that Match.com place, and there's a cute girl that I haven't seen in two years signed up for it, but damned if I'm gonna pay to talk to her, heh.

I only know of one free one, and that one has no girls from my area.

Three day free trial. Bust a move during those three days and make it work for you.

FYI, send them emails. Winks do nothing. If you email them, send them your real email address as many don't have accounts where they can email you back. I've noticed that the guy has to take the first step in a lot of occasions but if the girl likes what she sees she'll write you back. You take it from there.

Again, three day free trial. Use it or loose it.

Yeah, but you have to cancel it in time or else it'll give charge ya for 6 months! So I'll have to be ready for it.

There is actually a lot of successful relationships that have come from meeting someone online, It really seems to work.

I dont think I will use it anytime soon, what exactly should I say i dont think something like "a 15 year old looking to fuck some hot 20 year old"

You have to be 18 to play.

That's what you have to say. I've ran into some girls as young as 13 on some of those sites (just no pics to prove it).

OKCupid.com is free. It's sort of a cross between a web community and a dating service. It's not as popular as Match, but I know one person that has met some nice girls there.

One wonders if those "13 year olds" are really convicts. :lol

My eldest sister and her husband welcomed their first child into this world earlier this week (a boy). They've been married for close to five years now and originally met online. My sister was in California and he was in Georgia (where they both now live). So, internet relationships can work out and I know that for a fact. However, I think it ultimately comes down to how committed the two people are in making that relationship a reality.

IMO, you can't really know a person entirely until you've met and spent time with them face to face in real life. When we communicate via text, the emotion and meaning behind our words is sometimes lost or misconstrued altogether. Who we are is open to the absolute interpretation of the reader. Although talking on the phone is a large step in the right direction, there is still a great deal about the other person that you are missing out on. This is why I've always maintained the outlook that the internet should only be an introductory tool to a relationship and not the backbone of it. My sister and her husband carried a long distance relationship for well over a year before moving in together, but he still paid her way out to visit him regularly during that time. The majority of internet relationships are "pathetic" and fail because the people involved aren't serious or committed enough to make it a relationship to begin with.
