    You couldn't have been on this site for more than 7 days. No one falls that fast. Especially online.

    I've seen both successful and unsuccessful relationships evolve from friendships on this site. But... not that damn fast!

    in the OP, she/he states they created a second account just to ask this question.

    Yes, I read it wrong. I missed a punctuation.

    Please I already have like 2 dozen crushes on guys AND girls here. Well, cyber mini crushes that will lead to nothing but it's fun to admire.

    Do you really mean if it possible if one, or both, of you is married?

    I definitely think you can make a bond with someone over the net, it's the meeting in person that will let you know if the bond is true and strong. I dated a guy a long time ago that I met after he called me by mistake. He dialed the wrong number, got me, we started to talk and 2 hours later he had my phone number. We talked more and more and eventually met up. We dated for over a year. Anything is possible.

    It's possible, been there done that, but it ultimately didn't work out. I have people on my FL that met here and are currently in a relationship and another couple that got married not too long ago.

    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.

    So what you're saying is, you're technically single? Sup girl.

    You are married and we have a great relationship! How you got him to agree with it I will never know...

    It depends. I met my boyfriend online, and we've been together for 4 years and are very compatible. However, I also met 2 of my exes online. The big difference between my current and my exes is that they were long distance and he was local. LDR's don't work.

    <---- Met this guy, who lives 10 miles away from me, on MFP.


    The odds are more likely you'll fall for someone half way around the world and struggle with the whole long distance thing instead of finding Mr./Miss Right just down the road. But you never know.

    Also, junk pics and boobs really increase your odds for love.

    Not always the case. Just the case for you...

    Very broad brush you're using there. I have someone on my FL who married her LDR and they were from different countries.

    If you live close enough to meet in person go have coffee and see how it goes.

    It's possible to meet someone online and fall in love, then have a lasting relationship offline.

    I met my boyfriend online, the first time we met is the first time we moved in together; over seven years later, we're still together.

    LDR's don't work.

    Psh... maybe not for you... I met my husband (not online though) and then we had an LDR for 3 years because we were going to two different schools... did we have problems, sure... but obviously we made up for it as we are married and have been for 6 years now. LDR's work if you want it to....


    anyway... OP listen to NIKE.

    Coffee or "coffee"? Either one works imo.

    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.


    On here? Trust me my friend. Be very careful. You'll be the one that gets hurt.

    I hope, for your hearts sake, I'm wrong!
