skyyhi 0 #2 October 12, 2004 I'll play. . . Yes, I did once. When we met the spark was different. We are still friends but there definitely was no spark for romance after we met. On the other hand, I met someone online that I had a brief relationship with. Very intense. . .it ended but this person is my BEST FRIEND today. . . So it can be a good thing, just don't let your expectations drive you to try to "make it work".________________________________________ Take risks not to escape life… but to prevent life from escaping. ~ A bumper sticker at the DZ FGF #6 Darcy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites RkyMtnHigh 0 #13 October 12, 2004 In the day of technology, it's becoming more the "norm" to meet and connect with someone online. I've heard many success stories from online dating services such as EHarmony.com. I think one of the pros are that some people are more open and not afraid to be themselves and express themselves when they are communicating online or over the phone, whereas in person they may put up a front in order to impress the other person. Also, what I feel is most important and a benefit to a relationship starting that way is that two people get to know each other before physical attraction comes into play. Too many times, IMO, people who meet in person decide quickly if they like someone based on their appearance and then attempt to develop a solid foundation. Be yourself and I'm sure everything will work out just fine _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Girlfalldown 0 #14 October 12, 2004 QuoteSpeaking of stalking, anyone notice the return of one odd, gender confused individual to the boards lately?
