Well I am just curious ... Mfp is a site ..were .. Well we all have something in common .. So it's Starting point for even the shyest person to pick a conversation .... We give each other compliments to boost each others confidence and encourage each other along ....sooooo ... it's no wonder great friendships are developed and well..., shall we say there is no lack of flirting going on in here .. Albeit harmless or more serious .... So I am wondering if it has gone that next step for anyone out there .... Relationships form ??? ..... Have you actually fallen in love via MFP ?

    I don't see why it would be a bad thing. Like you said, shared interests. I've seen a couple of people date from here.

    not a bad thing, I find it kinda cute, knowing you are not alone and you guys came together this way. I have not but of course i am happily married. ;)

    I became pretty close with a user (nothing romantic, we became pretty good friends), then he quit the site and I haven't been able to get that kind of relationship back with anyone!
    Everyone else is just.. there. To comment, nothing more. Kinda sad.

    If I didn't have a bf, and I found someone close to me, I would be up for a relationship past just MFP friends.

    Ha ha! I'm sure it could happen. I've only fallen in love with MFP. Unfortunately (or fortunately - depending on how you look at it) I delete flirty people. I even put a disclaimer on my profile - but of course, I'm already HAPPILY married, so why wouldn't I?

    But for those of you single looking for a good time - best of luck to you! Finding the love of your life is a blessing from God. :)

    If I wasn't already happily married with children, I wouldn't NOT be open to a relationship that started here. :)

    I think its best to keep it at a harmless stage so you can say anything and get away with it. It's cool. My idea of romance is not on a computer besides its too much work but you can certainly flirt no harm in that.

    I'm sure it could/would/has happened, but I've never heard of that happening on MFP. The only thing I've heard people complain about are stalkers.

    Happily married, so I don't notice such things. Firm believer in meeting people the old-fashioned way = in real life! (met my hubby through mutual friends) Out of all the people I know in the real world - none of them have had a successful relationship that started online. Good luck to everyone!

    I think that's really cool. I don't really know anyone in real life who's active/ trying to be more active/ trying to eat right (and it sucks BIG-TIME). This has become a new requirement for anyone I go out with, and seeing as that requirement would take care of itself if I met someone on here, I'd be totally up for it ;)

    I met my husband online because we posted to the same message board for a computer game we both particularly loved. One thing led to another, and this spring we celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary.

    It can work if you are prepared to do all the right things, like cooperating, tolerating the other person's faults and finding other mutual interests besides the one thing that brought you together. Each of you has to be a true partner and friend to the other, or it doesn't work. Oh also... pheromones. Nothing works unless you're sympatico physically, and you have to meet to find that out, really. I was very lucky.

    Btw, I'm a divorce lawyer... people find all sorts of reasons to break up. It's not easy to stay together in a relationship of mutual respect and love. All sorts of things get in the way, from family finances, to drugs and alcohol, to cultural differences, to the hunky next-door-neighbour, to your new found body after losing all that weight. Respect your spouse and if you don't have one yet, then be alive to the possibilities and take care in choosing that person.

    Take care in who you pick. If there's no-one you know who can vouch for that new person, what if they're fooling you, or just not able to appreciate your wonderful self? Get third party opinions. Let them show you over time who they really are. In my experience, it can easily take 2 years for the mask to drop, if the person you're with isn't on the level. You have lots of time.. don't jump too quick!

    If you're very very lucky, you'll never have to come to my office. I'm about as popular as an undertaker *nod*.

    There was a post not too long ago about a couple who had fallen in love because of MFP. It happens!

    Ive made some great friends on here. One in particular Ive actually talked to on the phone and heart dearly. :)
