Thing you learnt with this story: Soul Mates....its not a cliche'

Comments:
In Early November I met a wonderful man in a chat room. His sensitivity took me so much by surprise that I was convinced that he was a woman. After chatting a few times I gave him my phone number. We burned up the phone lines talking for hours on end abou everything imaginable. I had never felt such a strong connection to anyone before. One night we were on-line chatting and I asked him to come see me. We were falling in love and we had to find out if this connection that we felt was real. We had to know f we were truly meant to be together or if we were going to simply be life-long friends. Well, we met and the sparks flew. The connection was real. We spent a weekend together and it was truly the happiest time of my life. I love this man with all of my h art. 1600 miles separates us, but this love, this connection that we have is so powerful that I feel him with me every day. I have never really believed in the notion of a soul mate before this, but really have no other way to describe what happens when w are together, and oddly enough even when we are apart. For now I feel drawn to my computer or to my telephone to find him, and we often navigate there at the same time. We share so much together that I had to write this and tell him.....Matt, I love you. .soon baby, we will be together....forever. All my love....Kandice

OK, well... How can I start?? I was dating this guy and our relationship was starting to really mess up. We were always fighting over the dumbest things. Then one day, this guy named Paul IM'ed me and we started to talk all the time. My feelings for my bo friend at the time started to disappear and I started to grow feelings for Paul. I broke up with my boyfriend.. I never told him why though. I just told him we weren't going to work out. Paul was away at college, but that didn't matter. There was somethin about him I loved. I guess it was his personality. He always made me laugh and always knew how to cheer me up. Finally, in September we met in person. Since then we've been together (whenever he comes home and when I go up to visit him)I dont' know what 'd do without him today. He's changed me to a better person. I used to be really really bad, but not anymore. He's taught me so much. He taught me how to love and be caring. I've never had a boyfriend like him. We've got our ups and downs, but in the end, I'll always love him. I loved him yesterday, I love him today, and I'll love him tomorrow and forever. Nothing will ever get in the way of that either. << Paul I love you with all my heart and soul. Please never forget that!!!>>

I am trying to tell everyone out there that if you belive in something don't hesitate to go for it. There should be nothing to worry about out there. There is a saying that "if you don't learn to love yourself then there is no way you can find love on y ur own". And that is a fact. Even though maybe I think that I have found love on the internet, cause of right now he is like a dream come true well in my dreams. I learned to finally love myself and found of what I am to become, and I have learned and ucceded. This boy lives in the same state and I have known him since 11-12-99 and I am truly in love. Just go for it guys and gals, and your wishes will come true just like mine did, of learning to love within yourself!!! Thanx

Thing you learnt with this story: That I AM completely insane, but in a completely ok way

Comments:
Feb. 03 Bored. I get bored. Alot. Hate computers. I must have been incredibly bored, (well then, when house sitting a studio apartment, who wouldent?) Between beers I come across a website. blahblahblah.com we will call it. I think to myself, ohhhh they have emai ! And with a cool angsty domain name! sweet! This place with a cool domain name happend to have a bbs. 'What the fuck is that?', im thinking. So I post, a stupid rediculous thread about punk rock. Yeah I know, how generic. Get replys. Angry ones. Virtual ights break out. Over the next few days, Im drawn back to this place in some uncontroled nerd frenzy. I panic. Was I really THAT bored? Yes, I was. And with the potential to achive ultimate geekdom. Several weeks later- I post something dumb mentioning S.H.A.R.P's. I get a reply, and from a skin guy. I think, ohhhh skin boy. A virtual skin boy at that. He invites me to IRC to exchange pictures. 'IRC? What the fuck is that? Insane rectal crabs?' im thinking. So my friend shows me the buz-ness and i get to typing. I see his pic. Damn, hes pretty cute. I leave the chat, not knowing if I wanted to come back. After all, netchat is supposed to be for losers. Ha. Next day- I go back. Hes there. We talk about how clueless I am about computers. I meet the rest of the blahblah gang. I get stuck there for hours. I wouldent admit it to real life friends at the time, but i was diggin it. Feb Through whenever- Me and him talk. A lot. Im really starting to get it for him. (I know, how lame) I snail mail him my mug and he acts impresed. (All the guys do, so why shouldent he? tee hee.) We have an insane amount of things in common. Im resisting this geek force, but to no avail. I plan to greyhound it to chicago. I was freaked. What if my vast p wers of judgment sucked? He meets me there with another one of our net buddys. (remeber, this was completely plutonic, at least we thought, or he thought. I had a BIG thing for him) We end up driving to the east coast to meet everyone. Fun Fun Fun. I think it was then I realized I could defently love this guy. I stay an extra week with him in chicago, and we do the couple thing. Fabulous, but so embarrasing. After- We dont know what to do. 2548 miles is quite a distance. We talk even more. I fiend for his presence. I hope, he was fiending for mine. We get the titles. Im now officially crazy for him, and we plan a second trip. 2nd string- I do the 3 day bus ride through hell once again. It sucked. Lost my luggage in Nebraska. Have nothing but a satchel, wife beater, thrashed shoes and a dirty sweatshirt. I stink. He gives me a hug and kiss anyways. Im mean the entire trip, but am drawn dee er into the magentic geeky skin complex. I dont resist. I love him even more for putting up with my bitchy attitude. Return- Shit happens. I go through a late teenage freak out stage. Get a new job, and break under the constant male attention from the hometown gang. Me and him are at outs. We try to 'just be friends'. Broke my heart. Of course this short lived arangement did no work beacause of our tendancy for lenghty long distance phone calls, talks about sex, and our usual self-glorifying crap. In a split minute disicion I buy a plane ticket. I love him, and find out he loves me. Joy of joys. He loves me! So I get my ass dow there in a hurry, and had a completly awesome, fullfilling visit. I had to come back of course, this isint some dumb fairy tale with a sappy happy ending, even though I pray that it will be. Ive taken so much shit over this from family, friends, work, pe s, and everything in between. Im still getting shit. He is to. Its all worth it. He is the one, he has to be. Im his nancy to his sid. Im trying hard to not get lonley. Its so hard though. All I want is my man, and well, a really awesome car. But my man comes first. Im so crazy insane in love, and stupid to boot, but this potentaily retarded situation turned out for the very best. I lear ed patience and the art of getting a point across without being a bitch. Like the song goes.."the only boy who could ever get through to me was a son of a preacher man..." Scratch the preacher part and insert a computer, and you got my joe. We will be together for real in january, when I drive my fire-starter vw bus through dangerous terrain just to lay with boy. Im finally happy. -Now the sad irony of it all, Im now a willing slave to a box. I love my computer to death, and found I have a nack for it! Oh, and im going to die of embarresment if this sappy shit gets around, so keep it here. please!

I met him in Spring 95 for one week after talking on the computer and writing emails. I visited him in his country for another week. Two months later, I moved from one contenent to another for my love. There were no guarentees except if things didn't work out, he would help me with getting back to my country and getting back on my feet financially. A year later, I married him and have been happy ever since. Yes, we have our minor problems, but doesn't everyone? (eg. who does dishes, laundry etc). He is my sun and moon and stars all in one. He is my support and my joy. He is my best friend.

Okay.. the first thing I have to say is that those of you who make fun of this site are dumbasses.. and if that is the case, what is the point of leaving a message that makes you sound dumb. I mean if you don't feel like there is love on the net, then do 't look at sites like this for heavens sake and by all means don't leave messages on them. Now on to my story. Last December, I met the most wonderful guy on the internet. We talked for three months a couple times on the phone and then decided to meet, he came here to meet me and we just fell in love. We didn't really tell each other how we elt until a couple weeks after that. But then I went to see him, we talked and had a wonderful time. It was soooo great, then one day we were talking on the net of course and he almost proposed to me, but backed out because he thought it was stupid to d it on the internet. I think I cried because I was so happy for like a hour afterwards. It was then that I knew for sure that he loved me as much as I loved him. Well then the summer came and I decided I was going to take a week off of work and go and ee him and meet his parents. So it was then that he asked me to marry him. I didn't cry that time, but he didn't know that I cried when he almost asked me on the internet. Well back to the story, I said yes of course.. We were both soo excited. I just hugged him and told him how much I loved him. Once again we arranged a meeting in October to meet in Colorado, we had so much fun, just talking, cuddling, enjoying the time together. Again as I drove home from that time with him I cried my eyes out. No here it is November and I am missing him so much. We have decided that we will get married in August of 2000. And let me tell you both of us can't wait until that time. Well I tell you I am the happiest, I have ever been and it is because of this comp ter and the internet and the wonderful things that we can do these days. I love him so much and he knows I do. And every day it gets harder to be apart, but all I keep thinking is dang in less than a year, I will be his and he will be mine. And woo hoo you guys lost out on the best guy. Well at least in my mind. But he is wonderful. So I wish you all as good of luck as I have had in this world in finding your one and only. Travis I love you soooooooo very much.. And I am so lucky to be the one to be your wife.. Good luck everyone.

When I first start to like guys, my parents freakout.They told me I'm too yong to like guys. I was 15 by then. So I didn't go out with any guys who ask me out. When summer came, I got a summer job.I had to babysit two kids Stacey 7 and Bob 6. So when I babysit them I got lonely and scared after the kids fell asleep. I watch some tv shows when some guy came in sweating and limping,I ask who was he.He told me he's the kids brother.And fainted on the floor.I quickly drag him to hie room and changed his clothes. The next thing i knew....I was kissing him. When we broke apart he told me he had feelings for me.But I didn't want him. I left his room and cried in the bathroom till their parents came back. The next day,I walk down finding my parents talking to the boy I kissed yesterday.His name is Ryan. My parents left us there to talk.We talk for half an hour,I noticed everytime I turned to face something he'll come closer.When we're closed enough we start to kiss. The kissed ended....I look up and found my parents smilling at us saying we look like them when they were teens.... And now we're going out for a year and 5 month.He dump me for a new girl.I cried at night tearing his pictures....my parents didn't know about it. I got over him in just a month and start having a new life with my brothers, Max,Samuel and Michael.In just about a few week before Girls and Boys Out at school start I noticed Ryan watching me closelly. Girls and Boys Out means about guys giving us things to our love ones.So when it starts I didn't care about it....and when I opened my locker I found a bouquet of flowers in my locker. The flowers were from Ryan,he came up to me just as I took the flowers out form my locker. He told me he was sorry for what he did,and promised to be there when I need him.I forgave him and kissed him.He pulled us apart and gave me something.I opened t and found out a locket with a picture of me and Ryan together. I just smiled and hug him. END

I'm just a normal girl with a normal family till when I'm 2. When I was 2 my sister was 8, we had the same birthday and always spent together. But when my parents got divorced, I cried at night. My sister told me I couldn't see dad anymore. That made me sad until when I find out I had a brother who was 9 years old. I saw him and never fight with him or anything except giving him love and caring to him. But one day when we were playing outside this small boy had kick his ball to the street, my brother got up and chase after the ball for the boy. he didn't realize a truck coming his way, my mom run out to save him but too late, my brother got thrown to the other side of the road. I didn't move to run over him, I remain standing there. By the time my stepdad got home, they quickly dash to the hospital leaving me with this babysitter Sam, he told me my brother was going to be okay and I wish I could believe him. The next day I went to visit him, he had tubes around him, his head was bandage.... My mom crying on my stepdad shoulder, my sister cried holding my brother's hand. The look on the doctor's face saying the only word that could hurt me "He's dead". I run out of the hospital and hide behind this bushes. I've just lost the person I really love besides my mom. I look up hoping my brother will be happy at where he would go. For 6 years we grew together now he's gone. When it was time to say goodbye to him, it was too late. When I understood my parents got divorced I want them to get together again but it's too late. It's so unfair, but I knew the world is not always fair. When we got home, I walk in his room and took out his faveourite shirt and put it on, it's bigger than my usual clothes. And at night I cry and cry. Till now I'm 12, my mom and stepdad get use by not havinf him for breakfast or dinner but only on his birthday. So every time I'll see any girl with their brothers I'll cry or feel sad. I wish my brother is still alive instead die. My sister never told their friends what happened to him, she's scared because they would laugh at her. But I'll told them the truth. Now I'm use for him not to be with me but I'll always love him and miss him.

I met this very special girl from IRC. She is a friend of my sister and we started introducing ourselves to each other. At first, I had a crush on another girl who is a friend of my special girl. Later when I started to give up on that girl whom I got a c ush on, doesn't like me. Then I give up on her. Later, I adopted my special girl as my god-sister. I was so happy and I don't even know why. Later I began to start doting her a lot. Even more than I dote on my sister. But I still did not realise that I like her. I thought it was out of our brot er-sister relationship. After this went on for a few weeks, we found that something is going on. But I pushed the idea of likeing her to the back of my mind until one day, when my sister talked to me about this matter. About how me and my special girl cou d talk to each other so well and I dote on her so much. Finally I woke up. I found that I like this girl a lot. One day, I wrote a letter to her telling her that I love her. I had a feeling that she will hate me but I have to say my feelings to her.Later hat night, she wrtoe a letter back to me telling that she loves me back. I was so happy! I felt like the luckiest person on Earth. I never felt so happy in my whole life. From that day onwards, I bought her presents every week and dote on her a lot more. She is the most perfect, wonderful and cutest person in the whole world. I really love her and I will love her forever. I LOVE YOU, baby!!

Thing you learnt with this story: True love does exist

Comments:
I would like to share my story with you to show you that true love found on Internet exists... (Some data :))I am from Eastern Europe, he is from the US - thousand miles apart...I am a year older than him, we both study and work.) I met MY LOVE on ICQ 8 months ago. I found him on random and his nickname was so appealing to him that I had to send him a message; I never do send random chat requests... (Faith???) We started chatting, sending mails to each other... first as friends bec use I was just "getting out of a relationship" that did not work for long time so I did not want to become attached to anyone for long time. He made me laugh, made me think about things I would never think of before, made me want to be a better person. I sed to go to work an hour earlier just to check my mails and stay late to be able to chat with him. I kept thinking of him all the time and then I realized I was completely head over heals in love with him. We had no secrets, I told him everything... I ad ired him as a person and when he sent me his picture I just KNEW he is the one. Well we kept on chatting over ICQ almost every day, sent mails to each other, sent regular mail, little gifts, talked over the phone and finally decided to meet! We did and it was the most wonderful time of my life, we spent several days together and both felt the same way, and after he flew back home we are now making arrangements for me to go over the ocean to visit him! I love him deeply and I wish one day we will live together, share every day's ups and downs together, laugh and cry together... I want to be by his side and I know I can always count on him. If there is anyone you fall for over the net, trust your feelings and make that person happy no matter what. Love is strong and long distance relationship can work out if both people are in love. Internet is just another way to meet your love (personally, I think much better than in a bar, ha?) Good luck from Spilette

Well I guess I should at least tell you I'm 18. My story started in september of '98, I was seeing this guy who I did very much like. But like every other couple, we fought lots. I've very sensitive so I usually end of crying and people try to comfort me but it doesn't work sometimes. Well at that time i was using my university server to connect to the net so when i wanted my line to be busy i would go onto the internet and chat with some people. Well there was this one guy i talked to and he was really n ce but he was also busy talking to other girls. I guess you can call him a "macker". I rarely talked to him. He lives 3 hours away from me. But everytime i was down, he would always send me internet flowers. It's not a big thing or anything but the guy th t i was seeing at that time didn't care about me much i guess. So everytime something bothered me, i would turn to my net friend. He's always found a way to cheer me up. Then one day i stopped hearing from the guy i was seeing, he was too busy with school and stuff so there was nothing i could do. But my friend was still there for me. We were like best friends but over the net. I would help him out with his love life when he asked me for advice. One day he and his friends, some other guys that talk to also decided to drive here. But this was about 6 months after i met him on the net. He would always call me long distance and we would talk till morning. His phone bill would be about 4 bills a month. But even b4 we met we were just friends. The day we met i w s pretty much nervous. I'm not sure why but i was. About a month later and a few more visits, we hooked up as a couple. Everything is great right now. It's been 3 months now that we've been together and i've seen him everyday that i have off so far. Pret y soon we're going to be closer together. And i hope things will be even greater. I think i've found my soulmate. IF YOU'RE READING THIS BABY, I LOVE YOU!!! See you tomorrow

Okay, this is MY story. I met that guy one day in the chat room. He said he is from India. I live in Bosnia, so we knew we are far away... But that it happened: we fell in love! Even if I had so many boyfriends before, I could never love anyone like I lov him... I swear on my life! Even if I'm 15 and he is just one year older, we know we are made for each other. He works hard to earn the money for us and our escape. We hope that we will be together next year - together forever. I will leave everything jus to be with him... And he will do the same - cause we love each other... That's the way my life will be......... IF YOU DONT BELIEVE THERE IS REAL LOVE ON INTERNET, THEN U R VERY WRONG! ATIV AND I KNOW THERE IS...

On April 6th, 1999 was the first day that I came in contact with Michelle and it was the first day that I started talking to her. Ever since that day, we have been talking about having the perfect relationship, the perfect love for each other, the things we would do for each other, the things I would do for her! Slowly but surely, everyday day after that day, we began to talk, we began to know more about each other, we began to commit to each other. I didn't expect anything the first time we talked but fter days and a whole week have gone by and I was still talking to her, that's when I began to get hooked, I was hooked on her. I realized that everything she said to me, and everything that she have told me was everything that I ever wanted in a signific nt other. To begin with, she is beautiful, with the most unique personality, she's got the most creative mind I've ever seen, the most influential person that have ever walked into my life, the most caring and loving mindset, and to top that off, she has the silliest sense of humor. Furthermore, I began to trust her, and she began to trust me, we began to trust each other. We started talking for weeks, and it led me to think that she is the ONE PERSON, THE ONE SPECIAL PERSON THAT I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR VER SINCE MY LIFE EXISTED. I've learned to trust her with everything in my life, I have told her things that I wouldn't imagine telling anyone else, in the process, I began to like her, and that like turn into LOVE, soon enough. I began to fall in LOVE with the perfect girl, the perfect human being, and the one person that I know that would make me happy for the rest of my life. I also realized that she began to trust me with her most internal, most secretive thoughts and feelin s. She began to trust me with her life, and that's when I realized once again that I was in love with her. Then on April 20th 1999, the first day that I actually admitted to her that I loved her, not knowing if she would feel the same way about me. I had to take that risk! If u love someone and you don't want to lose them, then u must to tell them how u fee ! This is exactly what I did. I told her that night after we got off the phone that "I LOVED HER". At night when I laid in bed and pondered about what I have said, I wondered to myself. Was that the right thing to say to her? What if she didn't love me b ck? What would I do if I didn't have her love in return? Thoughts of rejection rushed through my mind the whole day! The following day we talked again but when we were ready to get off the phone, for the very first time, she finally told me that she LOVE E BACK. That was the single most exciting day in my life, that someone that I knew fate has brought me to, has told me the one word that meant most to me, the word LOVE. Ever since that day that she told me she LOVED me, I have been the happiest person n the world. I have learned to make sacrifices, to show every inch of love I had for Her, I have learned to trust her with my life, and at that point she was the single most important person that has ever walked into my life. Then on April 28th, a Wednesday, that's when we decided that we Would become one, we had become each other's Ong Xa, BA Xa(husband/wife). On that same day, we decided to put our past, our relationship and friendship with others behind us, we had declared it to be official, to this day, that was the most significant d y in our lives. I am actually in LOVE, and I am an Ong Xa(husband) to the most beautiful human being that has ever walked on the face of this earth. I fell in love with the happiness that we had brought to each other! We fell in love with each other ways On the same day, she told me about our magic carpet ride (hehehe), us sitting up in heaven having lunch together, telling each other that we would never let the another one go. And her fantasy about the perfect wedding, (she wanted to ride a motorcycle t our wedding), Yes, that was her dream, When we had shared dreams the day after, she amazed me once again with what she was willing to do for me. Since the very first day I talked to her, I felt as if I was the luckiest person in the world to be loved by omeone so special. Someone, who was willing to give up her life for me, she had no idea how happy or enthusiastic I was that day. And still to this day I am so thrilled for us. Then one week and an anniversary later, on May 6th, the one day that I would ever ever forget. Do u know what happened on this Thursday? Well it began really well when we were telling each other how much we miss each other. Then all of a sudden she cried because she said she has never loved anyone as much as she loved me. If she ad one wish, it would be to spend an eternity of her life with me! But then, a song that was playing on the radio and it got the best of her so she began to turn away from me. She told me that she loved me so much that she had to let me go. It took me a hour and a half and even tears of joy and sadness to persuade her, but it didn't work. I loved her so much! There was no way that I would let someone that I love more than anything leave me just because of the fear of us being so far apart! So I propose to her out of love, I knew it was fate that brought me to her, and I wanted to keep her in my sight forever! I proposed to her in marriage, hoping that she would realized how much I love her, and to change her mind about her decision. No one has ever ma e me so happy, no one have ever made me feel so special inside, no one have ever took every ounce of manhood I had and push me to drop tears of joy out of my eyes. May 6th was the day that I proposed to her. I was so Afraid to lose her that I had to turn to my faith, I knew that she would make me happy forever, Finally I asked her, "Michelle would u take my hand in marriage? Will u marry me honey?" I didn't know what she was going to say! But, from talking to her ye terday she might say no, it was a risk I had to take because I love her that much, I had to show her that I love her enough to proposed to her over the phone! When she said yes, she didn't know the feeling, the rush, and the joy that ran through my body! realized once again that we had taken another step into fulfilling our love and happiness for one another. This meant that we would be together forever and this meant I can't lose her, she would be mine forever. No turning back! "I LOVE YOU MICHELLE! Slowly but patiently May 12th rolled by! May 12th was extra special because it was our second week anniversary! I knew that this day would be extraordinary because, it's just adding another exceptional day to the MILLION OF OTHER SPECIAL DAYS THAT I WOU D HOPE TO HAVE WITH HER, TO KNOW THAT WE ARE IN LOVE AND THAT WE ARE SUPERLATIVE FOR ANOTHER, MAKES IT SO MUCH MORE SPECIAL=)! Now almost 4 months have passed since we first met, and we're still More in love than ever! WE have been through a lot of rough times in the last couple of months, but we stood by each other the whole time! Some may say that love is simple, and it's easy, but in reality, love hurts, love hurts a lot! You will only know what love is, when you endure the pain that goes along with love! I can't sit here and just tell everyone who might read this that our jour ey of love was easy, but we both endure a lot of pain, stress, and worries about each other being so far away, but I never stopped loving her and she never stopped loving me! Love is truly amazing if you really sit down and see what love is all about. O ly true love will last in my opinion! Many people may think that when u fall in love for the first time, it will last forever, but it's not like that, both people have to equally love each other, and both people have to make sacrifices and that's what we did! Still to this day, we talk to each other everyday, spending countless hours on the computer chatting and talking on the phone! We still haven't seen each other in person, but I know that when that day arrives, I know I will be the happiest person alive o finally get to see my honey! We talk about it all the time, but we will only know when the time comes! I will end this love story with this, "patience is the key to my love with Michelle!" I LOVE YOU MICHELLE!

Love on the internet is just as great as in real life no matter how far the 2 are apart they are close at heart. Ok now i am going to tell you my story. I was chatting and i met this really sweet guy so we went to a private room and to my amazement he did t want to talk gross to me so for the next week or to we became really close friends and then we learned that we were falling in love slowly but it was happening.we didnt want to move fast because we wanted it to work out so for a month we just were frien s talking and doing friendly things. Then one night my best friend was staying with me at my house and i was talking to him and she just wanted to say hi so i got up and was talking to my gram and she was talking to him and they were talking about me and im he told her "i don't know what it is i just feel really great around her i just can't put it into words" and she asked him if he wanted to go out with me and of course he did so he asked her to ask me out and of course i said yes. To this day we talk a d we are still together and in the deepest and most special love of my life. And i just want him to know that no matter what i am always gonna be there I love yoU Jason F.

THOSE MOTHA FUCKIN CHATTERS JUST THINK THAT LOVE IS ON THE NET BECAUSE THEY ARE JUST BUNCH OF DESPERATE LOVELESS AND LOVETHIRSTY LOSER SCUMBAGS TRYING TO FINDE THEIR PAIRS ON THE NET BECAUSE THEY COULDNT DO IT IN REAL LIFE. WHY? CAUSE THEY SUCK!! THEY ARE ONE OF THOSE UGLIEST HUMAN BEINGS WITH THE WORST PERSONALITIES THAT EVER WALKED THE PLANET! I wish to write a reply to this entry. BOLLOCKS! Just because you have never experienced love doesn't mean you have to be so disparaging towards the idea. And why is love on the net such an absurdity in your view? The internet is just another way to m et people, a great fuckin load of people. And when I say meet people I mean meet PEOPLE because on the internet you actually meet real people. You don't fall for someone because they are attractive or they flirt with you or offer you sex you fall in lov with them because you love them, the person inside. The net is the perfect medium to meet people as who they really are and therefore fall in love with them. You also claim that people who fall in love on the net do so becayse they are losers and cannot pull in real life. Hmmmmmm. Well I met my girlfriend on the internet. We both have plenty of options in real life and we are both attractive looking people Well I'm not so sure about myself but she certainly is and she says I am too!). The reason we are together is because we are in love with the person inside. I am sorry to see that some people have such a narrow and naive view of this world. I feel for ou, whoever you are.

Hello Everyone, this is not the first time that I have written on here. But I did want to say that the love I have have found on the internet is the best love I think I would have ever found. I met him in December 98 and here it is July 99 and I love hi even more. Every day I miss him everyday I am excited when I get the chance to talk to him. He lives in Kansas and I am here in Wyoming, it is soo hard to be so far away from him. After all we have met, we know we love one another. He has met my pare ts and in just 3 days I will get the privledge of meeting his. We both know that we will be together forever. After all I tell him that I won't let him go, he is just sooo dang good. The best man I have ever met and the best man that I think I will eve get to meet. He is so wonderful, knows just want to say to make me want to cry, to love him even more, and to be happy. He has done soo much for me, making me see that I actually am a pretty good person and that I can find someone sooo wonderful as him As it seems I have one year of college left and then I will be there with him. To see how well we can start a life together, get him through school so that we both can be what we have both wanted to be. Yet he doesn't know that I think I have been wai ing for him for my whole life and well that I am just soo happy being with him. He worries about money, and being able to provide for me.. what a sweetie. All I can tell him is that well honey we will figure it all out as long as we are together. I lov him with all of my heart and he knows that. The sadness comes in due to the fact that we are just soo far away and that when one of us is sad the other can't be there to hold our hand and say it will be okay. But that will come. I just wish you all ha piness whether you find love on the internet or in life, but all I have to say is that I have found my soulmate and that we will be together... And that I love you sooo much Travis. Wish you all luck and me luck as I am going to get my stuff packed so I an go and spend 4 days with him and meet his parents. Good luck to you all.. Travis I love you and see you soon.. :) With love to my Travis.

So.. i gave it to him..and he came there. I got to know him better...but i didnt tell him i love you...we only had met a few hours before. Then he had to go and i asked him if i'll ever talk to him again.. I gave him my email address and the day after he sent me an email. I sent him 1 back..and every day we met in the chat room. Our love developed by time....we've know eachother for 3 months now....and we're soo great together!

We met on the net....I know it's f****** weird,but that's how it happened...It took us one week to "get" together and we both understood we were meant to be together right away...I went in that chat room and,although he never sent^private messages to peop e,he started talking to me....The conversation started off pretty boring and all I did was trying to cheer him up cos he was sick...I was seriously thinking about stop talking to him cos he was so boring and such a pain! BUT,suddenly,it became interesting,and I remember feeling this little flame inside....It felt all warm and I KNEW he felt the same...I completly freaked out,I couldn't believe I was feeling like this for a guy who was sooo far away(he lives in the USA and I live in Europe) and who I had never SEEN!But he understood me so well and I really felt like we had known eachother for centuries! I tried to fight the feeling and I think he did too but we always ended up together...This love is impossible for the moment and we had to break up like 2 month ago(we stayed 7 months "together")..But although we both date other people our love is still a strong as ever,we kept the contact...I know this isn't a lie,I know I love him and we are gonna be together one day(he says it's "written in the stars")I know we're young(16 both)and thinking about spending the rest of our life together sounds stupid to ost of the adults but I believe u can't never get enough of true love,even if u give ur entire lifetime to it....For the moment we try to get satisfied with long phone calls and long letters...I keep his picture with me all day and he keeps mine near his ed,there is not one moment when he isn't with me,he's the light of my life...I've never been hurt this bad,I've never loved somebody this strong and I never will...Some people might think I'm so lucky I found him now,I mean some people wait soo long to fi d their true love...(it always seems too long anyway)I can tell ya! IT HURTS LIKE HELL!!!!But it's the most beautiful feeling in the world,we are so far away from eachother but yet so close...Our souls are bound together.. I had to let all this out! I LOVE YOU BIG JOHN!!!!!!! Ur princess.

Well it all happened in March of 1999. I was in a chat room on Yahoo, and this guy came on asking for anyone near Lewisville, TX. Well I lived only 15 minutes away, so I messaged him. We talked for hours. We decided to meet, and I have to admit I was cared to death. I took a friend of mine along because I didn't know what would happen. Well as soon as I saw him, I knew that he was special. We talked and talked, and not about anything special. We made plans to see each other again shortly. Four mo ths later, we still are together, hate being away from each other, and still talk for hours about nothing. We are moving in together in August, and I can't wait. He's the greatest thing to ever happen to me. I know that he's the one. The one that I wa t to give my life to. The one to spend the rest of my life with. The one that I want to continue to fall in love with every day. Things have happened so quickly in these past months, but it feels like we've known each other for years. Scott, I just wa t you to know that without you, I would be empty inside. You are my everything, and I love you.

When school started, I was put in a stupid class and the subjects that I didn't like. I wanted to change but the teacher in charge wouldn't let me do so. So I logde a complaint but no reply. A few days later, a guy came to my school. He's a new student fr m somewhere in town. He was still in his old uniform which is a different uniform from my school. So he was the center of attention in school. My friends was talking about him all the time because he was good looking. I didn't take it serious bacause I wa worrying about my studies at that time. Later I changed to a better class with subject that I loved. That new guy was in the same class with my friends. They fancied him too. They found out his name was Adrian. They even found out his birthdate. Adrian b rthday was quite near at that time and they were planning a party in his house. They invited me but I din't want to go because I don't really know him. Adrian was very friendly so those ppl he didn't knew, he'll still invite them. Adrian himself told me o come. So I went there and it was great. Adrian was a great guy. He's nice and friendly and very talkative. That's how I knew him. I liked him very much then. Slowly my friends started to hate him because they say he was a jerk but I didn't care. I tried to change him because I cared for him. I always talked to him in person. He didn't have the slightest clue that I liked him. He showed no response so I stop thinking and seeing him but I can't. I guess maybe I liked him too much. I cried every night just o forget about him. I do not want to love someone who is showing no response. A few months later, my friends came to me and said that Adrian likes me!!! I didn't believe them because I seldom talked to him but when he asked me to be his girlfriend, i said yes! We are now a pair of happy couple. Very happy indeed. I'm doing well in my studies and we keep no secrets between us. We were friends once and that time, he told me he only like me as a friend (that time I thought I had no chance with him) but now he said loves me... he bring flowers to school for me. He's the most romantic guy I ever met and his voice on the phone is so sweet. Actually a lot of girls envy me because I'm his girfriend. hhaah . I'm kind of lucky. I thought miracles would never happen o me, but I guess it did... :)

I met my fiance, Jeff, in December of 1996. We met on the chat program mIRC. We talked for hours and hours, day after day. I wasn't too sure about this "net" thing and falling in love with someone that I had never met but the more we talked and the more t at I found out about him, the more I knew that I was beginning to feel something for him. I was already in a marriage, that was not a healthy one for either my husband or myself. One day in January, I had experienced a very traumatic event in my life; a g od life-long friend had lost her daughter in a car accident and I was quite shaken up over this. Jeff was amazing through all of this, talking to me, calling me to see how I was etc. I knew after this that what I was feeling was definately love. He had ex ressed his feeling for me before this but I had told him then that I can't tell him that I loved him or anything like that because at that point I didn't believe that I did. After the deathof my friend, things started changing drastically between Jeff and I. We talked more and more and fell deeper and deeper in love. We had alot of obstacles to overcome during our time of chatting online but we overcame them all. We eventually ended up meeting each other physically in May of 1997 and came to the US in June Our love for each other has only grown since then and in July of 1998, we welcomed our child into the world, Jared Murray. I used to sit back and envy women who found their "soulmate" and pray for the day that I would meet mine. I was beginning to believ that the day would never come but it did and I thank God everyday for bringing Jeff into my life. Next to my children, he is the greatest gift that I could of ever received. I feel truly blessed in what I have been given and I cherish each and everyday t at we spend together. He has taught me what it means to love and be loved in return. In closing, I just want to say that not all relationships that are formed on the Net will have happy endings but then again, meeting a mate the "normal" way doesn't guara tee happiness either. I took that route once in my life and it never worked out for me. Meeting Jeff and getting to spend the rest of my life with him has shown me just how lucky I am. I love this man with all my heart and soul.

I was starting to spend a lot of my time in a particular chatroom on IRC, getting to know the regulars and all that. There was this one guy who I thought was great from the first time I was there. There was just something that attracted me to him, and I a ways wanted to be with him. Unfortunately he lived in the US and I lived in Australia. We got to know each other on a friends basis because he already had a girlfriend, and after about 6 months we knew each other pretty well. His girlfriend and him broke p, and one night while we were chatting he told me that he thought he could fall in love with me. I told him how I'd felt all along, and from that point on things changed dramatically. We chatted for hours every chance we had, and after 2 months I moved t the US. I met him, and we got along great in person. He was everything I imagined him to be. After 3 months we moved in together and got married. It's been 6 months since then, and we're still really happy. I'm glad he had the courage to tell me how he felt, and I had the courage to trust a "stranger" like that. True love is real, and no matter what the circumstances are, if it's meant to be, things will work themselves out. Never give up on the things you w nt, because you just might get them.

Comments:
One night I was on mIRC chatting and asked if there were any guys from my area. Right away a few people messaged me back and we started talking. There was one person in paticular who caught my attention. I didn't know what it was, but I knew there was som thing different about him. I knew I had to keep talking to him, and I couldn't let him go. So after chatting for awhile, we ended up exchanging phone numbers. We talked on the phone for a couple months, and I felt like I knew him forever. He was different than any other guy that I knew. We got to know eachother really well, he became my best friend. We both had feelings for eachother, but were afraid to say anything. One night, we ended up saying everything. I loved him just as much as I do now. We have be n together for over a year, and I am happier than I have ever been in my whole life. He has changed me a lot. We have been through so much together. Hopefully we will be together for a long time...maybe even our whole lives. :)

Over the last year and a half I have been online, I have heard so many stories of people meeting and finding "True Love" over the internet. I thought it was all a bunch of baloney. I'm a 25 year old single mom, trying to raise her daughter on her own. don't go out much. When I do meet people, they are usually a friend of a friend. I have a hard time trusting men because the ones I have known have never been able to keep the promises they have made. My exhusband promised to be a father to my daughte , but when she reached 18 months old, he realized he just wasn't cut out for the 'daddy-thing'. He wasn't ready to give up his extra spending money for diapers and baby clothes. That was 2 1/2 years ago. I have been afraid to get involved with anyone b cause I don't want my daughter to get attached to someone and have them leave her when they decide the 'daddy-thing' isn't for them. I guess it is sort of a catch-22. You don't take the risk..you don't get the rewards. Well, I chat online at work..usually in Yahoo Trivia or Parents. I met this girl in Trivia and we became good friends. She is about my age and married. I had just moved back to Arizona from southern Illinois, and she was from Indiana. (So I was fa iliar with where she lived) After talking to her for about a month or so, she mentioned her cousin to me. Told me what a great guy he is, etc etc. She thought we would really hit it off. I said thanks but no thanks. I don't want to be set up. Especi lly with someone 1800 miles from me. One night, while we were chatting, her cousin came online. She got us talking and we both laughed at her because she's been telling him how great I am and how much I am like him..and she's been tellig me how great he is. We got to talking and added each other to our friends list. That was around the end of February. I didn't try to impress him. I was my usual, slightly sarcastic self. As we talked, I realized that if anything, I had found a good friend. We agree on everything. Although we are so far apart, I can't believe how much we think alike. We have the same morals, the same beliefs. Both of us have been through pretty much the same experiences when it comes to looking for that special someone. It is rea ly hard to find an honest, simple, thoughtful person. Over time, we started talking on the phone and sending each other presents. (He even sent me a Mothers day gift...lol..even my exhusband never did that!) We exchanged pictures, and we talk every nig t on the phone. It feels like he is just up the road...not way down the highway. He's 28, and like I said I am 25. I think we were both a little leery at first, but because we both know his cousin..that kind of eased our skepticism. I am flying out to meet him next week. I am a little nervous. The greatest thing about meeting someone online is this : I have been talking with him almost 3 months now. I think I know a lot about him..enough about him that I trust him. Talking online/telephone gave me the chance to get to know his personality without my daughter having to meet him. If things don't work out...she never knew who he was. I never tell people online what I look like..am I single..and I would have never told him had I not known his cousin irst. Because his cousin and I had talked on the phone, and she seemed like such a great person (honest, educated funny) I trusted her judgement. She couldnt have been more right. I have never met anyone like my guy. He's honest, straight forward, funn , thoughtful, and he respects my wishes about not meeting my daughter. (Even though he really wants to) If things go as well as I hope next weekend, he is flying out here June 10th. And I am going back to Illinois to see family in July and I will go up and see him..maybe even let him meet my daughter then.) I don't think everyone can find true love online because you never know who you are really talking to. If I hadn't know his cousin, I wouldn't have been so open with him. But I do believe there ar honest, good hearted people out there. Dating is so hard. Especially if you are a single parent. My daughter is only 4..and she gets so attached to anyone. She thinks everyone is her friend. I am thankful that I have had this opportunity to get to k ow someone without spending too much time away from her. If this works out..I'll repost a new story. If it doesn't..I'll let ya know too. Good luck to all those seeking love. An extra pinch of good luck to the single parents.

Myself never questioned why because that is not important, it just is. She is the most beautiful woman i have ever had the fortune to fall in love with. she is sensative beyond belief, honest as the wind, and at times so child like all i want to do is k ss her to death. we have become the best of friends and the strength we both need to make it thru our days. so to my love Alex i love you so much and will do my best to make you very happy. your are my pisser and i am ur nyc wild man

I used to be quite sceptical about finding love on the internet, often laughing at those who had claimed they'd found it. I didn't even take the time to wonder how one could justify attraction through words and promises on a screen rather than by sight. t all seemed too unrealistic...Until the day Oloan walked into my world. Yes it is true, I am eating my words, in a big way...You see, I have found my true love...This virtual love, as they say, now rules my world...I went into this eyes wide open, no intentions or expectations...and I have come out feeling something I had nev r ever dreamt of! What I have felt with him couldn't be expressed with words, in fact many hours have been spent pondering, trying to explain my feelings for him...Love...adoration...?? yes true, but it goes much deeper and unfortunately unless you can de ve into my heart and see it for yourself, you will never know exactly how deep my love for Oloan goes. Never did I imagine I would meet one who could make me smile merely with one word...Never did I expect I would meet one who accepted me for me, and tak with him my silly little insecurities as though he loved them as they were a part of me! He once said that I made loving so easy, I guess in some ways this is true, as true love is something that I believe cannot be denied. Nothing can stand in it's way. .even life's little obstacles and minor setbacks are no competition for a love this grand, as it rises above all and shines on those that feel it...so yes it certainly is easy loving him too, it is the most natural thing I have encountered yet! Whether I met him in the real world or the way I did, I cannot find any explanation apart from fate. He belongs in my life. Dive deep, O mind, dive deep in the ocean of God's beauty! If you descend to the uttermost depths, there you will find the gem of love~Bengali Hymm Even a modern day romance discovered in the 'real' world isn't always necessarily true, or pure...but in my heart I know that what we have found, Oloan and I, is love! Oloan my sweetheart, I used to dream of a fairytale romance but what I have found with ou is all my dreams and much, much more...Now the sun shines brighter, the birds chirp louder, the scent of life smells much much sweeter! oh I have nothing to be afraid of in fact, nothing feels more right then loving you...Like I say darling, let's lov like there's no tomorrow!

He came to Bismarck every other weekend and got a hotel room and I stayed with him. We ta ked every day on the phone, and every night before going to bed. At the end of September he asked me to move in with him because he hated being away from me and only seeing me for 2 days every other weekend. So I said yes. I moved to Fargo October 16 of 9 , only knowing him for 4 months. Things have been going great for us ever since and we plan on getting married August 19, 2000.

I saw him a few times in channels on IRC, and he interested me. Over the weeks I began to talk to him, he was aloof at first, a prior IRC friendship had turned him off contemplating the idea of meeting a woman online. I persisted, and after a couple of mo ths, we realized something very special had developed between us. For nine months we spoke to one another, almost every night, and all during weekends, we were so right for each other it seemed, though we both felt hesitant about meeting. We continued to hone each other, e-mail from work, e-mail from home, and keep our romance alive. In late January, 1999 I flew across the country to meet him, and it was perfect. No awkwardness existed between us, and we spent a wonderful week together. Two months later h flew to see me, another wonderful week was had, and he proposed to me. Come the middle of the year, I am moving in with him, and we both cannot wait! :D So there's a little more proof that true love can be found in a chat room. ;)

I have been talking to the most wonderful guy named Travis, since December 25, 1998. He is the best person I have ever had the previlege to talk to and meet. He means so much to me and he helps me in so many ways. He has shown me that there is a soul m te for me out there, because he is mine. We met in March and since then everything has been even better, which is hard to believe because I thought I had it pretty good with him to begin with. He is the best man I have ever met, the more I talk to him t e more I fall in love with him. The more I help him and try to make him feel better when he is down, makes me want to just be with him right now. Our only problem is that we live so far away from each other. But we have a glimer of hope ahead, I will b done with school in one more year and he will be done in a year and a half. And then we both know that we will be together finally. These are the best feelings I have ever experienced. My heart is sooo in love with him, he is everything that I have ev r wanted and I am so glad that I have met him. I know he knows how much I love him and I hope he knows that I have this feeling that we will be together for the rest of our lives. Trust me people there is a chance of love out there. And well I just wan you to all know that I have the best man that I could ever want and I want him to know that I love him. And I will end this now since I know it is getting long, but before I go I want to tell the man I love something. Thank you so much Travis, for mess ging me that first night. Thank you for helping me through my troubles and being here for me. And I thank you for allowing me to love you with all of my heart and for you loving me back. It is the best thing that has ever happened to me, and I know it ill always be the best thing. Because I know we will be together always to help each other through everything. Love you millions Travis, hugs and kisses. And to everyone else, good luck and I hope you find someone as good as Travis. :)

I have been depressed ever since I came into college. I never thought I would find anyone who really would understad me and who I could truly connect with. I have had my computer since October. One day someone showed me how this wonderful program calle ICQ. I began to talk to random people but not truly connecting with them. Then one day I decided to talk to a women who lives in the same town as my brother. So I looked in the white pages for a women my age who lived in Casper, Wyoming. Well the fir t person I seen who seemed interesting was this person with the screen name of Homey. I thought hmmm that is an interesting name. I knew only a few things about her. That she was a female, 21, and where she lived. Well the very first time I talked to er she made me feel better. I had lost a school report that night and was bummed she just made me feel so much better about it. We started talking and found out that we had so many things in common . We even had the same major in school and both were s y and sweet people on top of many other things that we share. That was December 9 and I have been talking to her for an average of 4 hours per day. I decided to see her for my spring break which was the best time I ever had it felt like the whole thing as meant to be. She was the exact same way in person as on the computer. And she also came and visited me for her spring break to and we got even closer. We continue to talk for hours on end and both feel that we are our soul mates and will be together for life. She is 650 miles away but after we both get out of school we will be together for the rest of our lives. As the saying goes love finds you when you least expect. I have heard of this going on but you never would imagine it happening to you. ut I am soooo glad it did.

It was almost a year ago to this day that I went into a chat room, my first week with my new computer. There was only one person there, and we started to talk. Over the course of a year, we have been slowly getting more and more involved with one another, telling eachother everything about our lives. I realised, maybe three months into our very intense discussions, that I was begining to fall in love with him (Before this, I could not believe that anyone could find something like this on line). I told him how I felt, and he told me he felt the same way. My god, if I think about the money I have spent trying to see him, the phone bills.... it makes me crazy. But he is going to move to me, he is going to move 3,000 miles to be with me, and I have never been happier in my life. And one other thing, today he propsed to me. I am still in great shock. He is my soul mate, and without our computers, we never would have met. I was never looking for this, I never thought this could happen. Sometimes love just kinda creeps up on ya. I am with him for the rest of my life. I wish he were here right now, but I only have a couple months to go (damn, it's

Hi, some of you may remember me. I wrote about Ben and myself meeting on the net and that we were going to meet in person during my spring break. Well, spring break has been over for about 2 weeks now. And I had such a good time while I was with him. e met me at the airport. I was so incredibly nervous. But he reassured me that he was the same person I talked to on the phone. We drove home and I met his family and what not. They all welcomed me with open arms. I never felt so much love from peopl I didn't know in my entire life. We spent the evening talking and all that "couple stuff". It seemed so natural too. It's like we had known each other for our whole life. The next day we spent walking around town. I felt to protected by him. He was ike my knight in shining armor. I spent the entire week with him. We had so much fun. He showed me things I never had seen before. And what made me the happiest is that he accepted me for who I was, not for what I looked like. And I did the same for im. It was great because he turned out to be a hottie anyway. I had to leave Sunday the 14 to come back home. The entire week he kept saying that he wanted to marry me. As I was packing the rest of my things up, he said it again. So in reply, I said All you have to do is say 4 words." He got on his knee, put a ring on my finger, and said, "Will you marry me?" Of course I said "YES" And we hugged each other. So, I guess the moral of the story is, "Not all bad things come about from meeting some one n the net. There are actually decent people out there. You just have to search in the right places." We are planning on getting married after I finish college.

There was a time when I held my heart in stillness, motionless. I held it strong and cold. It is the kind of stillness where everything within its environment does not make a single movement. The kind of stillness where it separates my feelings into their places. And it was just me cause I had resigned to living alone and loving only myself. Only God knows what may come into my path. And on this momentous day, we talked a little through the net. It was really funny how we got along well when not too long before, we could not stand each other's sights. Slowly, with her gentleness and assuring ords, she opened my very soul and my eyes to a whole new life. Oh, I should have known what was in store for me. God had brought her into my life when it was clouded in a haze of my past. I thought there would never be a really passionate love in my life, hope had grown dim, and suddenly, there she was, showing me what my heart could not see, and I have not been the same since. And now, those little dreams I manifested are becoming real, every little thing makes sense for me. A wise man said once "A person is not fit to live if he has found nothing on this earth worth dying for. As weird our relationship can be cause we are yet to meet each other, I dare to say that I would do anything for her. Peggy, if you are reading this, words can't tell you the full dimension of how I feel. I love all the laughters, the understanding and the fact that so much about us are touching so closely and perfectly together. I love the tenderness you give only to m and me alone. And words can't do no justice to tell you how I've grown to love you more and more. My life could not be as wonderful without you. And if you ever wonder where you are at in my life, you are at the center of my very heart that now back in m tion generated by your love. Hopefully, as I am counting the days, we will meet in May when she comes here to see me. Till that moment arrives, I can only wish that every month is May.

She Loves me unconditionally as I Love her the same. We both never thought that the n t would bring us together but here we are sitting next to each other i Love her so much that I plan to marry her in two or three years. We have already made plans for the summer to be together to see what it will be like if were together for a long time. think it will be a very lasting relationship and so far out of the three months the biggest problem (how small it is) is how much I swear. She has made me not swear as much which is good but i have alos told her that she is very beautiful which took 18 y ars for someone to finally tell her that. She means the world to me and always will be my fuzzy wuzzy teddy bear. i will always cherish how special she is to me and I Love her to death.

Well I had my computer for about a year and a half and had been chatting throughout that time. I met alot of interesting, weird, sad, people on the net, the whole spectrum I had even made a few friends online that i enjoyed chatting with but never had any desire to meet or for the most part even give my email address too, Well that changed without me even knowing it. I was in a sports chat on Yahoo one day when I noticed someone chatting to someone else and this guy was giving her a hard time, she was just being a smartass and so naturally I was a smart ass back well she called me a Bastard and I knew I liked this persons sense of humour right away. We ended up talking for hours that first night just cutting up, The next day I couldnt wait to chat with her gain and i got online as soon as I got back from work, well that started a great friendship, it was refreshing to talk to someone who wasnt hitting on me asking me how I looked, if I was single etc. I really only chatted as a fun thing, not as a way to me t people. Well we always chatted for hours on end and eventually we started talking on the phone, Right off we talked on the phone like we chatted and I was enchanted with her voice. Well we talked for many weeks finding the things we had in common but be t of all just having a fun time, and then I realized I was falling for this woman who lived thousands of miles away, in a different country. We got to the point finally where we were curious about how we each looked and she sent me her picture first, she as very nervous as was I. I knew i was in love with her and when I got her picture I fell more in love with this gorgeous woman who was beautifull inside and out. This left only meeting in person left to see if we clicked in person or were as attracted to each other in person as we have been over the computer,phone, and pictures. Well when she came through the doors at the airport and I saw her smile in person my insides melted and I knew I was a Goner. Its been hard being so far apart but we have spent al t of time together and everday I have known her I have fallen more in love with her, everday I like her more and we continually learn more about each other and what we mean to each other. She is my bestfriend, my love, my girl and i do see the other half f my soul in her when i look into her eyes, see her smile, feel her touch hear her voice. My Advice to other people dont look for love so hard be patient, take the time to become friends with someone see if you like them first then follow your heart it wi l take you to unexpected places.

Thing you learnt with this story: That I found the other half of my soul

Comments:
I had just gotten a computer and was a virgin chatter when one day in a sports chat room in Yahoo! there was someone that caught my attention. I had no idea if this person was male or female, but was interested because of where I thought this person live and our common interest in hockey. Once I realized it was a guy, I flirted a bit in chat, but nothing too extreme. Our conversations were not your typical ones where we were trying to get intimate with one another. We didn't ask what the other looked ike or any of that senseless stuff that people seem so involved with on the internet. Any way we chatted for several hours and just had a great time joking around. His sense of humor was what I really liked about him. I thought this guy would be so coo to hang out with, but he lived in another country 2,000 miles away. (Like we would ever meet!) Well, I wasn't sure if he would be back online the next night, but I took a chance and was about to give up on him after I saw that he wasn't online for some time. Finally, he sent me a PM and we began chatting. For some reason I was so excited that he had got online. We still weren't interested in the physical aspects of one another nor any facts other than just things we had in common. Was very nice not eing asked what my measurements were. We began chatting on Tuesdays and Thursdays in April when we first met online and we spoke on the phone...I made the first call. We both have accents so right we were amused by that. Trying to make a long story sho t...I flew up to see him for his 30th birthday in August, but had planned the trip for months (was eternity). He would email me love quotes or song lyrics from love songs every day...I figured this guy was too good to be true. Much to my surprise I fell in love with him (although I did not want to) before we met in person. This man confided things in me, opened up to me, cared about what I had to say, etc. The list is endless. I feared that even though we had exchanged photographs we might be a disapp intment to each other. I couldn't have been more wrong. The night before I flew up to see him, I cried and said this could change it all after tomorrow and the risk of not having in my life scared the hell out of me, but I knew that we had to take the n xt step. Fortunately, I worked up the nerve to get on that plane. I will tell you that we were both careful, it is scarey to meet someone you meet over the computer (which I almost let that destroy any relationship with him at one point because of my fe rs). When I came through the doors at the airport, he was wearing the hockey jersey that he told me he wanted to give to me because it was his favorite. I couldn't get to him fast enough. We hugged for about 10 minutes, he just shook, he was so nervous He once told me in chat that in his philosophy class that someone like Freud believed that everyone has 1/2 of a soul and it spends it's whole life searching for the other half and I told him that I believe that the eyes are the windows to the soul and hen I looked into those beautiful, blue eyes, I knew that we were both correct. I found the other half. We spent a glorious 4 days together...talking, dining, walking, hiking, dancing, kissing, etc. It was a romantic 4 days for sure. We have been apar for weeks and together for periods of days or weeks since then and the time we spend together only gets better and better. I am with him now physically, but our communication is on the same level it was on the internet, which we have that to be thankful for. It gives you nothing but communication and what beautiful thing that is (thank God for computers and Bill Gates). I love him with all my heart and soul and this man is like no other man that I have ever known. It's like I had a dream about a perf ct man for me and one day there he was before me in a chat room. I am so lucky to have found him. I feel happy, I feel excited, and I feel loved when I am with him and even when we are apart. Miles cannot keep your heart from one another...it is shared no matter how far apart we may be and no border can decrease my feelings for you, My love, My life, My guy.

Well.. i donno how to start this.. but i just felt like telling my story. I am not a very big believer on net and meeting people in person that i met on the net. I am very careful, and cautios. Oh.. and i am 15.. soon to be 16.. so a year ago.. in fact a ear and a day ago.. i was on the net.. somewhat bored.. and i met this guy on the net.. we started to talk.. and then he had to go.. and we started to mail each other... the e-mails got so long that it would take me an hour to respond.. to say the least, e learned a lot about each other. And today.. we are good friends.. and i am loving having Sam (his name) as a friend. He is absolutely great. I would love to meet him in person, but he lives in Europe and i live in the US... its too bad.. but we both bel eve and know that the Atlantic Ocean is not a big obstacle.. :) In any case.. i think its still dangerous to meet people on the net.. there are weirdo's out there.. but Sam, is just different.. i can completely trust him.. and i can say that i love him.. in many ways.. but true friendships know no boundaries...

Thing you learnt with this story: Make it happen...

Comments:
I was new to the area and because of my hectic schedule, putting a personal ad through Yahoo seemed to be a good way of meeting new friends. Little did I know I would get that and more. I received a response back from a man that lives about 3 hours away. lthough I never imagined it would lead to anything more than an online relationship, I responded. We corresponded through emails for about a week and then started chatting on line. On Valentine's Day, we spoke on the phone. He wanted to meet me and I want d to meet him so we made plans to see each other the next weekend. I knew that we could not have a "traditional" date so I reserved a room for him at a very nice hotel in the city. We had planned to meet in the coctail lounge first. The moment I saw him, was overjoyed. We had a couple hours to converse before we had to leave for dinner. To make a long story short, we blissfully spent the entire weekend together. The moment he left to go home, I deleted my personal ad from Yahoo. The next day, I noticed h deleted his as well. It has been two weeks since we have seen one another and he will be visiting me again this weekend. So far, it looks very promising. But I won't lie to you, it is not easy having a long distance relationship. This is what I have lear ed from my experiences and if you don't mind, I would like to share my thoughts with you... When you develop an online relationship, make very sure that the relationship has the potential to become "life like" if the both of you want that. I know how e sy it can be to develop feelings with someone you have never met, however, keep in mind that being away from the one you love hurts and is very difficult. Complete trust and the absensce of jealousy must be applied to ensure a healthy long distance relati nship. Sometimes these relationshops can hurt more than losing the person altogether. If you have the ability to meet then do it immediately. If you have difficulty making plans for the first meeting, imagine how difficult it can be to make plans for the econd and the third! My last piece of advice to you is this...BE CAREFUL. No matter how much you think you know this person, you must watch out for yourself. Ask many questions and follow up on them whenever possible. If they are reluctant to give you pe sonal information, then something is not right. If they tell you are being paranoid or they lay the guilt trip on you that you don't "trust" them, walk away. If this person truly cares about you and your well being, they will respect your feelings and und rstand why you are being so cautious. Call them at home, call them at work, ask for their home address (maybe one day you would like to send a nice handwritten letter), question inconsistancies if they happen to appear. There are alot of people out there or you to meet...don't risk your own safety at the expense of hurting someone's feelings. I honestly believe that on line relationships can work. In fact, I feel sorry for the people who don't share that same belief. Meeting someone on line first gives yo more of an opportunity to know the person for WHO they really are and not what they LQQK like. When you do finally meet, you will have a deeper understanding and respect for one another. I am looking forward to reading more of the happy love stories....t e sad love stories are very upsetting. Take care, good luck and BE SAFE. <3 Shanna (Can't wait to see you again Charlie!!)

Thing you learnt with this story: You never find love when you look for it, it finds you when you are ready

Comments:
There is a funny thing about love. I married a guy I had dated in High School. I thought we would be happy, we had always been when we were younger, but it wasn't to be. We married as I said, but were soon there after divorced. I had moved back home f om Frewsburg, NY where he and I had been living to be with my family again. My parents had a comp and I used it to chat with. Then my sister, whom I lived with, bought one and I was addicted from that day to this. While chatting, I met someone in a rol playing room, and we chatted constantly. Some times from 11:00pm (EST) until 5:00 or 6:00am (EST). Needless to say, we were really getting to know one another. There was one problem. He lived in Georgia, and I in NY. One night however while chatting with him, he told me that he was there in the army. When I asked him where he was really from, he told me a small town in NY. He had no idea where I was really from, so I figured he would have no reason to make that up. Come to find out, he grew up abo t 45 minutes from me. I had even driven through his hometown every weekend on my trips to and from visiting my parents. I was amazed. So was he. When he came home to visit before being shipped off to Korea, I got to meet his family and he mine. Now w en he gets home in 85 more days, we are going to be married. I can hardly wait to see him again, let alone be his wife. I love him with all my heart and soul.

to make this short, i live in new jersey, he (khanda) lives in washington state. the distance between us doesn't hide our closeness to each other. i only know him for about 2 months at the max, and yet i feel like i can't live without him. yes, we are onl friends, but i love him and he loves me. it's one of those people who come every so often to change ur life forever. and khanda is one of those. whatever he tells me brings a smile to my face. even when he does those cute lil smiles makes me laugh. and h can say things like "Aww look at that. It was rainy, but when you smiled, it's sunny." that makes me happy on end. it's the little things he does that makes me happy and what makes me love him. he may not be the cutest person in the world, but meeting people online lets u show urself to someone for what's on the inside irst. khanda is one of the sweetest people on the earth and i love him to death. never would i let go of someone like him. ~katherine "I could love anyone, no one says I cant.

I met "Tommy Girl" (Amy) on Amanda's Table in April of 1998. I sent her a message just looking to talk to people. We talked for awhile and we liked the conversation and exchanged emails and planned to meet on the chat room a few days a week. We exchang d emails back and forth quite a bit. The night of her prom in May we stayed up until about 6 am just talking. That's the night that I really realized that I liked this girl alot. I called her around that time and she has the cutest voice in the world. A few weeks later I asked her to be my net-girlfriend, and she said yes. We've had our doubts and problems in the first few months of the relationship and broke up a few times. We've been together for quite some time now and our relationship is stronger than ever now. We're deeply in love with eachother. I asked her to marry me in November and she said yes, we're engaged!:) We're planning to meet in April of 1999, and i'm going to her prom with her. I can't wait to meet her, it will be the happiest d y of my life. We have so much in common, we were born on August 24, 1982 she was born 1 hour after I was. We share so many interests. I think god does exist because he sent an angel to me. I love you Amy, always and forever.

We met on September,1,1998. It was the day before school started and like most teens I was not really looking forward to the school part but I was looking forward to being able to see my friends. I decided to go online to try and pass the time. It was about 1:00pm here when I got on. I went through my mail, answering some of it and deleting some. Somewhere around 1:30pm I went into the geocities chat room. I had not been in them in a while. I had and still have a hard time finding good decent people to talk to in there but I was bored and did not have much else to do. It had been about half an hour and I was considering leaving when someone asked "how is everyone today?" I was about to answer when I say someone named Cyan say "depressed." Being who I am I sent him a message asking what was wrong. And like many people in this world Matthew was feeling lonely and upset. I talked to him for about an hour or two, trying to make him feel better, giving him some virtual hugs etc. I understood and still do the way he was feeling so I could sympathize with him very well. From the beginning he had me a little interested in him, he was sweet, friendly and honest. It took a little work but I got him to open up to me and it was amazing to find out how much we have in common. I remember thinking that two people should not have this much in common, from taste in music, books, food, and friends, to talents and dislikes. After about two hours I found myself wondering what his voice sounded like so I asked him if I could call him, I suprised myself by asking him for I had never talked to someone I had met online so soon. I was also amazed by how I felt like I could instantly trust him and how I could open up to him. He gave me his number somewhat reluctantly and I gave him a call. His voice was very sweet, kind and friendly even if he did sound very nervous. He told me that he could not really believe that I was shy and I told him that he was the one that was causing me to be so open. I have never been one to lie, but he made me open to the point of forwardness that I simply did not understand in the slightest. Since then we have talked on the phone almost every day as well as talking online. We have exchanged pictures and he has come out here to see me twice for a total of about 4-5 days. I personally will be headed out there between December 26th and January 3rd. I believe that those will be some of the best days of my life. I have also had thoughts about our relationship that I never thought that I would have. I have thought about marrying him in the future, and I think that even if he asked me today I would have a hard time saying no, though I know that I would have to only being 16 and still with at least 5 years of school ahead of me. I have found that there is not a single quality that he does not have that I would want in my husband. He is sweet, caring, compassionate, understanding, willing to listen to me, there for me when I need him and will always be there as much as he can when I need him. He is a wonderful man, I have been so blessed to have him in my life. He is one of those rare men that every woman is looking for and he proves that they nice guys Don't always finish last.

I had always promised myself that I would never fall in love. I felt that all that could come of love was pain. I built walls around my heart being careful not to let anyone in. I had just gotten the internet when I met Shawn. I wanted to see what cha rooms were like. I never would have expected anything more than a friendship. I thought it was stupid to think anyone online could have anything other than a friendship. Boy was I wrong. So I guess I let my guard down since I didnt expect anying ther was nothing to worry about. I met this wonderful guy named Shawn. We started out talking to everyone in the room but by the end of the night it was as if we were the only two there. We exchanged email adresses. We talked online every night. I looked forward to talking to him, I dont know what it is about him that just makes me fell so good. Maybe its his patitence or his sweet way of always makeing me feel better when I am sad. I just know that I didnt think it was possible for someone like him to xist. I think someone stole my fantises when they made him. We started talking on the phone and I wanted to talk less and less online I love the sound of his sexy voice. I know that there are a lot of people that think that this could never work out, b t they are wrong. I dont think people realize that when you meet online that you actually get to know the person. So many times people say they love someone when really they know nothing about them or even what love is. Talking to Shawn has allowed me o really know him. We had planed to meet over his winter break but I was to scared. I am ready to meet him now. We are going to meet in march. The hardest thing is not being able to be there when we need each other. Its hard to see some one you love urt and not be able to even hold them. I know that things arent going to get easier after we meet. In fact they will probably get harder. we will want to be together when its just not possible. But we will over come it all. I love you Shawn.

I met Jeremy in a chat room in Lycos. He was chatting as pot_pawn, and I as devilluver. My name usually gets attention, but it is mainly negative, so I was shocked when Jeremy and I hit it off. We shared so many common interests, and we talked for hour in that damn chat room about nothing. Before we left our computers, we exchanged email addresses, and ended one long night. The exact date is a blur, but it was several months ago. We started sending each other email messages and virtual cards. He sh cked me the first time that he mentioned that he loved me in a message. I cried for over an hour just looking at that message. Through email, we exchanged phone numbers and addresses. He had some really cute ways of finding out more things about me lik sending an information forward to people, and having them fill it out. We started talking on the phone after a while, and because he lives in Iowa, and I Missouri, it wasn't too big of a deal for me, or him. Finally, we decided that it was time to meet face to face. You have to understand, I am a 17 year old who has been obese since the day I was born, so I was really happy with Jeremy not knowing who I was outside, but then after we talked about things, I decided that his love for me was established i side first. Well, we planned it out so that he could spend Valentine's weekend with me. He drove for 7 hours to get here, and when I first saw him, the first thought that I had was "Damn, I'm short." Funny right? His first thought was something about y hair, because I am really the craziest person in my small town school, and I had my head covered in beads. I cut school to introduce him to my parents and family, and risked failing my senior year because of excessive absenses, but my love was strong e ough that I totally did not care. Anyways, we did the whole parents kind of thing, and went to Hardee's (dope smokers hang out) and met up with other friends of mine. I had so much fun that weekend, and I knew that I didn't want him to leave Monday, but he had to. That Sunday night, I think we both knew how depressing it was going to be, because it seemed like we tried to be bitchy to each other to get into pissy moods. I know that I did, but I realized that I wouldn't see him again until May, and knew that we would have to say goodbye before then. Monday morning had to have been one of the most depressing days in my life so far, I just kind of wandered around trying to avoid the fact that he was preparing to leave. I couldn't sleep the night before, o I got up and wrote Jeremy a letter, and stuck my class ring in an envelope with the letter. Somehow, I knew that after he left me on Monday, things would change, and I didn't want him to forget me. He wasn't supposed to find the letter til he got home but while I was in the store, he found it and started reading it. We sat at the school and cried for what seemed an eternity, but unfortunately, it wasn't long enough for me. We argued over him keeping my ring, and finally he said that he had to leave. I am even getting tears in my eyes now just recalling the weekend, but anyways... Since he went back to Iowa on Monday February 15, 1999 things have seemed different. He confessed that I wasn't what he had expected, but he said he still loved me as a fr end. We have come to an agreement, we are going to remain good friends, and after May 15th, (my high school graduation) I am going to move that direction, and we are going to hopefully move on with our relationship. See, you thought it was going to end ll sad and stuff, but it didn't, or should I say it hasn't ended sadly since it hasn't ended, and hopefully never will. I LOVE YOU JEREMY ALAN!!!!!:o}

Hi!!, well my story involves 2 girls that I met on the net...I started on the net in January 98 and I met a sweet girl in a chatroom...we really hit it off and we were planning to meet as soon as we could, within a year or two anyway...BUT there was one B GBIG problem...I live in Ireland...she lived in Texas!! A return flight would only have cost about $350 and I was gonna go se her last summer, but she met some other guy over there in June and now shes pregnant and married*L*...so that was THAT!!

Ok so I met an even sweeter gal in Feb 98, she was 16, I was 20...ok so a lil bit of an age difference there!, but whos counting?..In October 98, we told each other how we felt about each other, and that we thought that we were falling for each other. So ever since then, we talk for hours every day on ICQ, and we arein love so so deeply, both of us. I feel that she is the one that I want to spend my life with, and she thinks the same about me and that makes us both verrry happy to know that. BUT she liv s in Canada and I still live in Ireland, so it is so so so so hard to be away from her...We can't meet for a few years, its just not possible for us for different reasons, and it just hurts alot to be apart....ok so this was MEANT to be a happy story, an it is!, because we love each other and we will always always love each other, even if it is only as friends,..I am closer to her than any other person in this world, and I just lpve her to bits!

To be honest I hated the internet for a very long time, because my husband of 6 years (who is addicted to the net)kicked me and my 3 boys out on the street with no place to go. That was in June of 1998. I went through hell and back (to put it mildly). We inally got a place of our own and I decided to get on the internet, but only to try to talk to my husband over the net (trying all attempts to work out our marriage). One day as I was random chatting on ICQ i met a man by the name of wildchild. We hit it ff instantly. He knew exactly what I was feeling when I was sad and told me to *smile*. Slowly i began to give up hope on repairing my marriage and began to get closer to wildchild. We exchanged phone numbers and talked everyday and all night. He turned m world around and made every day a brighter place. Even though he was in Texas and I was in Iowa, we made it work. Two weeks after we began talking, he moved to Iowa to be with me. I know in my heart that he is my soul-mate and that we are destined to be ogether. That was in November and here it is February 1999, and we are still together. We are planning on being married this summer and the bond that we have is unexplainable. There is something between us that no-one understands. We have a connection. It isn't ony emotional but it also spiritual, we believe the same things and we have so much in common that it is scary. We also know each others thoughts before they are said. He is my love as I know that I am his love. I have never known or felt a love qui e as strong as this. He loves my boys as if they were his own and they love him too. We are as one. Our love will last forever and a day.

I met her on yahoo chat. I was in no way looking for love, I had just got done arguing with someone and I followed him into another room. She was dancing on the table and immediately caught my attention. When she asked if anyone wanted to talk to a 19 , I responded because I also was 19 even though we were in a room for people 20 or older. We hit it off right away. We had alot in common, and I liked the way she seemed aggressive and confident. We exchanged email addresses, and she left to go to bed. Her email address kept returning an error, so for weeks I went back to chat and tried to find her. I finally did, and learned she had accidently given me the wrong email address, and I had given her the wrong one also, so we had been unable to get in tou h. We talked again for hours, and I got her real email address. I emailed her several times after that, but didnt get any response. I got the impression she was ignoring me, and I sent her an email appologizing for bothering her and saying that if she idnt want to talk to me I would leave her alone. She surprised me with a long awaited email, and we began to talk regularly. Soon we were chatting for several hours a day, and calling on the phone often. We fell in love, and I told her I wanted to meet her in person to make it real. She lives in Oregon and I live in Texas, so it was a long trip. I had no money, but somehow I scraped together enough money and took the two weeks off from work to take a bus for three days and two nights to meet her on the pacific coast. It was perfect we were perfect together and completely in love. Since that time she has come to visit me in Texas, and now I am leaving school to come and be with her in seven months. I am moving to Oregon. God bless the information age!

Alan and I met in a chat room by him making fun of the name I was using. For weeks, maybe months we chatted through AOL instant message. All the time, almost every night, all night. It was amazing all the things we had to talk about. We went on to phon calls, but after awhile, we kind of drifted apart. I was crushed didn't really know why. He ended up meeting someone, I couldn't really blame him, but I was crushed. Anyway, in the three months he was with the girlfriend, we only sent a few e-mails. ut then one night, he was online and sent me a message. The girl, who he felt was the One for him, had dumped him. He was crushed. I felt terrible for him. I knew how he had felt because I felt the same way when him and I stopped talking. Either way, t's been great the last couple months, and in October, he came here to visit me. We had a good time, although he says I don't talk a lot in person. Either way, I consider him to be a very good friend, and I wouldn't trade his friendship for anything.

Thing you learnt with this story: There is the right guy out there for you.

Comments:
Well, I guess that I never expected to be where I am now. I met Jerramie about 6 months ago on a chat room. He was complaining about the weather in Canada and all, and me thinking it was sooo much colder in Wisconsin I thought I would let him know that. I got to talking to him and found out that he was a really cool guy. After that night we met on the chat room every other night. I loved talking to him because he made me laugh all the time, he had a one of a kind personality. We got to know eachother a lot better over the next 6 months e-mails, icq, ect. I knew that I was falling in love. The only thing was all odds were against us, of this actually turning out into a relationship. I have talk to him over the phone or on icq every night. He has the cutest augh, a great personality, and I see everything I have ever wanted in a guy, in him. I like his family a lot, and he says he likes mine too. He has talked to my sister and a few of my closer friends. I have talked to his sis and a few of his cousins. I ca 't wait, he is coming up to see me this summer (first time). We have seen each other, by photos. Just a few more months I keeps saying, but it feels like eternity. Everything will go great I know it. There is so much more then this that comes to my mind w en I think about our relationship now. We are dating and I know that I have found the right guy for me. The right person is out there for everyone. I know that I must be happy because a smile never leaves my face.
