Love must have physical attraction though to an extent. You certainly wouldn't 'love' someone if they weren't attractive to you. Then again, peoples' definitions of love vary. |

Clair calm down. Its a debate, people are entitled to their own opinions, and If I remember correctly it wasnt a debate about you and Intimidator. The topic genre is just coincidental, please dont take any of what is being said as a personal attack against the pair of you. |

I guess you are referring to my comments. I said MOST people on here are 13-15, not everyone. I'm 18, i have experienced quite a fair bit i believe but however i am not willing to share any as they are personal. It's rude to stick noses in other peoples personal lives unless they want to open up. It could become quite emotional for someone especially if it is unwilling forced out. |

My friend tried an online relationship. He met one girl on a game, well supposedly a girl. They met, the girl googled photos and gave them to him. Eventually he found out she was a he and stopped it. Good for you though, yeah long relationship stuff is a pain. |

Im sorry clair, but i have to ask.... How do you know someone out there wouldnt mind someone asking them about their relationship? Just because you may not want anything like this doesnt mean there arent attention-whores out there whom would like that attention. Note, nothing against you, nothing against andrew, but im just asking the obvious...not trying to piss anyone off. :blush: |

They don't even have to be "attention-whores." Maybe they could just be unabashed of the fact they are in an online relationship, and willing to share with others about it. |

I'm 16, I had found true love, she was 2 years younger than me, we are going on 1.5 years, getting together to go to 6 flags this summer. I couldn't be happier with her, well, other than a small problem right now... But that's not the point. The point is that love is not only a physical attraction, for if it is there is always someone new for you and you wouldn't be able to keep one partner. Love is the special bond between two peopel that's formed by their personalities and the way their personalities compliemt each others'. I feel the same way as Clair does, I get really ticked at people who say they don't work, they are for lonely people, etc... |

I am 14, and very proud to have had the same girlfriend for 5 years. As Myr has said, you all should worry about personality first, then looks. |

O_o Some people don't mind talking about their relationships they have made online. Just because you might not, does not mean others will. This is not a topic about you, but rather internet relationships in particular. If you don't like the subject matter talk to Locke, seeing as he made this topic. |

I'm speechless, angry and hurt so thanks very much. I would like for once, for people to just be happy for me instead of questioning it but no, seems too much to ask. Hope you guys are enjoying this, personally I dont care how two people meet as long as they are happy. |

If that's all you can keep saying, you're just re-stating and re-stating a point that I'm willing to bet many people don't want to think about, and that's if you're not physically attractive or aren't given a chance to show what you can do, you might as well give up. I've been a victim of shallow self-indulgence and quick first-impression decisions for...as long as I've had hormones. Up until now, when a girl who I've gotten to know extremely well over the last 14 months finally decided that maybe there's more to life than looks.I think that it isn't neccessary and that people who care only for looks are hurting themselves and those around them who want to be noticed. I do, however, vote against online relationships for the physical aspect. I don't mean physical attraction. I just mean getting to be near and with each other. If I had started going out with this girl on, say, the last day before school got out, then there'd have been no point until August because I'd just be talking to her on IM, which I do every day after school anwyay, and did before we even started going out. That's stupid. You have to be able to touch each other to feel real attraction—and that's not shallow physical attraction, that's thought-provoking attraction, the kind that finds you in bed at night wondering just what you'd do without them or just why you think of them so much or just why you're thinking about what you think in the first place. EDIT: And that's your bed by yourself, not...you know what I meant. Had to clear that up for those of us who aren't married or don't sneak out to sleep with a certain someone. =D There's no point if you can't reach out and hold that person's hand or hug them or just be within arm's reach of them at at least one point in time every day...or two. |

People are simply stating their opinions. I'm sorry if you're hurt, though ![]() I personally think that it's better to meet the person first. I'm not saying it's wrong to have a relationship over the internet, I just don't think it's wise ![]() |
