Yes, other people (not I. I'm anti-dating right now) have met the love of their lives through here and are planning to move to another country for them.....once the divorce from the shafted spouse is final of course. Oh the love stories. Nothing warms the heart like an affair to remember.0

I met mine here on MFP. I live in the States and he lives in England. We took things (and still take things) very slow and we knew each other about a year before even discussing a relationship. We talked and got more serious for about 6 months before he just flew to see me in January. You have to be careful, communicate each other's intentions, and be safe :flowerforyou:
Hey! Yours sounds identical to someone else on here. I wonder if it's the same man. You lucky girls.0 -
awe this is cute.
good luck to you two :flowerforyou:0 -
It's possible and has happened.0

i didn't meet my husband on here, but i did meet him online. we've been together for 3 years, and married for one.
good luck, be safe, and have fun!0 -
Too cute. I heard a few people met each other off of here. People meet just because and hang out from MFP (Im a little jealois because I want to meet some of my amazing MFP lol but majority of them are too far). I rather MFP than any other dating sites. So goodluck, be safe, and have fun0

Its definitely possible and most of the people on here know me...
She will be safe! I am not some weirdo :laugh:
Hahaha now people can relax that is me
even cuter - u will b fine hun -- have u seen his arms?!?! haha
hahaha yeah hes pretty cute his arms? i have. very very nice
BUT not just going on looks, hes a great guy
Great attitude. It has to start with friendship and something more than good looks (though that doesn't hurt)0 -
absolutely anything is possible.
The girl im pictured with, I met her thru a friend on mfp about 3-4 months ago, its an understatement to say she changed my life.
When i joined MFP, and about the time i met her, i was logging straight liquor everyday and about 4-500 cals in junk food.
Not only did she help me, w/ the help of people here too, tho she helped me transition from a topsy turvy time in my life.
Currently we just survived one of the biggest challenges to our relationship, and she stuck by my craziness. I love the hell out of her, and w/o MFP i wouldnt have turned myself around or met the girl who changed my life.0 -
I met my wonderful hubby online (different site, tho). We've been together 7 years, married for going on 2 years. Do be careful! But it can happen. Good luck, and have a (safe!) fun time!0

i think its better to get to know someone before you go out and meet them
which is what were doing,
geez i feel like a little girl again with her first crush haha0 -
I met my BF on MFP a year ago. It was in a thread talking about King Cake (we both live in Louisiana). We started emailing back and forth, then AIM chatting, and finally met IRL on March the 10th, 2011. We have been together ever since. We live about 20 miles away from each other. We spend every weekend together, and he usually comes over one night mid-week as well.
We talk about getting married one day, though it will be at least another year or 2 before that happens. He is a very sweet guy, and I completely felt like I knew him before we met because we talked SOOO much (daily - all day long. I do software support and sit online all day, he is an IT manager and sits online all day, lol).
Good luck! Just be safe!0 -

Hmm you could absolutely meet someone on here...no different than any other social networking site. Anything is possible, and you may just get the surprise of your life.
Just be smart and careful when meeting anyone from the internet.0 -
so sweet and just in time for Valentine's Day... best of luck. smile0
-
You met your match in about a month? :noway:
You look pretty young - be careful about who you meet online. Best to meet in a very public place.0 -
I know some people are worried, but there is no need to be.
I am a good guy, and I will take care of her... I am not some weirdo or freak and most people know me from around the forums. I try and be a down to earth nice type of guy.
We will catch up on neutral grounds and I will take special care of her! I am a fussy person, and dont just go for anyone, but Sarah and I have been talking non-stop and we get a long. So we will meet up and see how it goes.
Please dont be alarmed guys, I am a good egg0 -
I think its kinda cute that you guys found each other on here and are planning to meet. Have fun!!0
-
He's a nice dude, I wouldn't worry in the slightest.0
-

-
I think it is possible, I have several people on my FL that has coupled up with other MFP members...
Can't help what the heart wants...
Good Luck0 -
Can't help what the heart wants...

I always find it amusing when people say " be careful ... He could be a serial killer " ! I have plenty of friends who not only met, but got married and are very happy with the person they met online. My question to the negative old schoolers is ....
Is it that much safer meeting Joe Blow at a local bar ???? Whether you meet at church, work, bar, Internet, through a friend or even in a hospital ... ( little humor there ) .... The bottom line is happiness !
Do whatever makes you happy ... Live a little ... Take chances .... Never rely on advice of people who don't even know you !
The worst part about fear ... Is never knowing what you missed out on !
PS .... Yes, I have met a great guy right here on MFP !0 -

Stuff like this can work, I'm living proof. I met my boyfriend on a message board for a pop punk band when I was 17. I'm now 25 and we're still together.0
