    Anything is possible.

    Does it make it a good idea? No idea.

    Just make sure your MFP friend isn't married. Like really make sure. "Going through a separation," is still married.

    Well, I met my husband playing World of Warcraft. He drunk-crashed our raid one night on the program we were using to talk to each other. We connected (I still love his voice and fun personality), started video-chatting, and then actually met several months later. 10 months of flying back and forth went by, then my job moved me to another state and he decided to make the jump and came with me. That was back in 2011 - we're now married and have a 14 month old daughter. Anything is possible if you are willing to take the chance and put the effort into it! Long distance is not easy, but when you find the person who is truly worth it, you'll be amazed at what you will do to make things work. You won't know until you ask and try! Good luck. :drinker:

    I know people who have met on here and have great relationships with each other. Is it possible? Absolutely. But if it's long distance, that increases the degree of difficulty exponentially.

    Is it possible to meet someone on here and form a strong relationship with a member of the opposite sex. No, I don't think this is a dating site and no, this is not my first post. This is a second account I made just to ask this question and to hide my true identity. I ask because I think I maybe falling for one of my mfp friends and I think they feel the same.

    ♥♥♥♥ Yes, I do feel the same. ♥♥♥♥

    I, personally wouldn't do long distance, but I did meet my boyfriend online. I don't see the problem. I would suggest meeting in person early on though.

    As long as you keep yourself safe when meeting this person it is fine. However, saying that you think you are falling for this person is silly. You only are seeing them at their best, when they have the time to consider what they are typing and such. I wouldn't even consider those feelings true love until you have been seeing them for quite a while.

    I'm not sure. I send out lots of junk pics but the girls ignore it. I mean, I'm just trying to give them an idea of what I have to offer before we get married.

    What am I doing wrong?

    I started taking them from the side. Much better response percentage. Good luck man!

    You have something against meeting someone online. Its 2014. Times changes from traditional dating. Unfortunate for me long distance sucks so hopefully this person lives close to you. Some people do the long distance thing fine. I cannot and will not.
    agree with all of this, especially the long distance part. been there, done that, no thank you.

    OP, keep in mind internet personas differ from real life vastly in many cases. if you do end up pursuing this keep in mind you may end up disappointed

    Don't entirely agree with that. I'm the same on here as i am in RL. take me as you find me, don't like me phut, I wont lose any sleep over it. Still stand by my first statement. Nah not on here.
    you think so, but what you say online has no tone to put it into perspective, you have all the time in the world to come up with a witty or informative, well thought out answer when irl if you're thinking silently for more than 3 seconds when it comes time to talk you look like a fool.

    also i said many, not all. surely some people are the same irl (i personally try to talk online as i would irl) but you never know until meeting them

    I don't think you can find an actual relationship from this site, more of just a hook up site!

    I met my boyfriend online, on a different (not dating) website. 5 years later we're still together, but still long distance.

    You should talk to this person. If it doesn't pan out, it doesn't pan out.

    Of course it's "possible," but as with any relationship, it's also possible that it will be a catastrophe.

    I've seen both successful and unsuccessful relationships evolve from friendships on this site.

    ETA: Re-read OP and saw the second account part. I thought you said "no I didn't just start a second account."

    Sure, it's possible.

    You'll never know what sort of relationship might be possible with this person until you talk to them about it.
