Why Do Some People Fall In Love Online?

Some of us, if not most.... has at one time fallen for someone on the net. It doesnt necessarily mean a relationship came out of it. Just that there is someone we feel is "special" to us and wish we can be more than just friend to that person. And to those who are already in a relationship, why doesn't it matter that they live miles away from us? You still feel drawn to this person. Is it the way he/she treats you? Is it the things the person says? Is it because the other person share your dreams? Is it because you believe he/she is the right one for you? Please share us your feelings in this. Post away.....(shucks, I sounds so serious here, I think

Good thing about chatting is that there is more chance to discuss or talk about many topics dynamically.
I never been in love online but I have met few interesting people online and I really value the friendship alot.

things happen in the net because people let it happen and because people want it happen. The world is full of temptations and net is not exempted. So, it's either they tighten the belt or have it loose...the risk is up to them.
Those who fall in love online...there's a corresponding risk to that...people can fall in love anywhere, they have reasons..or they just let it happen.

Personally, I'd say LONELINESS contributes a lot to why people fall in love on the net. First they meet people they find interesting. Then they get to talk a lot, getting to know each other on a more personal level. And it's easy here on the net specially to those who do not really care much about spending time outside their homes. They get to focus on that one person only. And then they find out that he/she is someone they care to spend a lot of time with. That they both like what each other says in their conversations. And before they knew what is happening, they have grown very attach to this person already.

Lets put it this way Witchy po...my answer would be its like why we crave for icecream or chocolate? You know darn well that you will gain weight if you eat it...that it will hurt u emotionally especially when u are on diet but still likes to eat it...therefore..satisfaction?..well it might plays an important rule here...As the the saying goes, satisfaction brings the cat's back. Just a thought from coochie po

I believe ya, Cooch I just simply want to know all the reasons behind these online relationships. You know I have always been a curious person and if the cat got killed coz of curiousity, I'll take the chance. I believe in learning thru experiences and knowledge can also be acquire from people base on their thoughts on different subjects/topics

To simplify the question, why did I fall in love with my mahal. I really don't fall inlove easily even in person...much more online when you don't actually get to see him in person... But like what Gracia said subconsiously I want to find someone on the net and I am ready to fall inlove here...
In my experience, like what I said I don't fall inlove easily, and second I don't date friends or much more fall inlove with friends. Once you are my friend you can never be my lover or love interest. I simply can't take it because I feel I am betraying our friendship and I already treated you as a brother or father or anything but lover!!!
I fell inlove with my mahal because more than any man could ever do he has open up himself to me and get to know him deeply and get involved in his daily life, night and day, when he wakes up and before he sleeps. And even before I felt I was feeling something for him I have become so trivial asking questions about anything you can think of asking anyone under the sun. It even took us several months before he actually said he loves me and it took the same time for me to realize I think I'm falling.
True I got so attached to him at first few weeks we were talking regularly online and seing him regularly online, to the point that I think I was getting addicted to him. The greatest part was he hasn't seen me (on cam) yet for those past two months and I even sent him my mug shot (ugly pic meant to scare men) lol!
And luckily he is ready for a relationship too... and we didn't really think of the distance as a hindrance. Love I think is more of emotion, heart and mind, and I think we both found that in each other.
That's why I fell inlove. I get to pick on his mind first and say things I think I couldn't say in person or ask a guy in person and I get to know him from inside and sex has not become a hindrance.
lol I think I said too much lol! I hope I answer your querry witchy pooh ma friend

hmmmm.... hullo witchy
well... what should l comment on this? hihihi
l once fall in love to my xbf online.. l never seen him in real before, merely because we talk periodically, become friends, good friends, then we find the 'link' on our conversations. it's that we both open our heart and our life w/o trying to cover anything, the good part and the bad part, we share it each other... then **boom** we both fall in love in the net even b4 we see each other in real.
l guess because we tell everything, so when we met in real its just exactly like when we talk over the net, nothing change, even better!
the point for us is... we both open our life, that made us fall in love.
But since it's not working at the end, l banned myself for falling inlove b4 meeting the guy now

Ouch, Beth! I am sorry to hear that  But to be on the bright side, always keep in mind that there is someone for everyone. So maybe that guy is not the one meant for you? Who knows? Maybe you have already met him and he's just waiting to get noticed?
Actually, this thread is about what makes women and men online "interesting" enough that instead of finding one outside the net, someone they can easily judge, they choose to take a chance on the net? I think I should have been more specific or clear. What can I say, I'm a dumby_witchy sometimes.

Been there done done that. Just my two cents.
I don't think I will ever truly realise why I allowed myself to fall in love over the net. Time and time again. While it does sound unbelievably stupid to some, until you are on that person's shoe(s) ----- you will truly never understand. This is a subject that I find very sensitive.
I suppose it is cowardice on MY part. Reality scares me. I have found my online relationships more fulfilling than real ones. Go figure.
There is a sense of "freedom" of expression since you are communicating behind a computer screen, thus, you are not so self-conscious. I have always been shy and I mask it by being a snob. Or so I think. You can go deeper into each other's personalities. Subconsciouly acting your inhibitions out.
For me, falling in love over the net especially when a real life relationship comes out of it is by far greater than "real" ones. Why? Because it defies explanation. It defies tradition, it simply break all the "rules". Love can not be confined. Period. And it shouldn't be.
Most of the old regs here has an idea of where I'm coming from as far as online relationship goes. I did fall madly in love with this guy I have never even met. I do not feel a tinge of embarrassment admitting we have lost touch. But the memory of what we've had has kept me going -- to this day. Pathetic as it soounds.
Everything about it was/is beautiful.
Hope my input helps .
