Of course you can fall in love real quick just like you can fall out of love real quick

If you base a relationship on having to be in love you are real likely to fall out of love

It will depend what you create within a relationship as to whether it will last a real long time

Well what do you think/feel?
I think its possible
Of course a lot of imagining will be involved, but then there is usually an active imagination involved in most emotions I think.
love is not a single constant emotion, it is manifested in many shapes and forms and to various degrees of intensity fluctuating over time.
So I guess time will tell
But I suspect you want to know before you can know and that is where the danger lies. Expecting to be able to believe with certainty when you should be evaluating and postponing judgement.
Expecting love to have a magic to solve all problems is another trap for the naive.

Being in love is a delusional state. Not necessarily a state to avoid but a state best accompanied with a bit of realistic assessment

Falling in love from their photos alone, is not really falling in love in my opinion, but I believe it is very possible to begin to fall in love with their personality by communication before ever meeting in person. (Sadly, this is what scammers depend on, and results in some people being conned out of money). We need to guard against developing any strong feelings for someone before we actually meet them, or until we are convinced they are who they say they are which can be difficult to establish.

falling in love requires different things for different people

I am more cautious, so I cannot 'fall in love' without observing someone in many different situations other than just online

once upon a time , when I believed all that mattered was the two of us,, I could fall in love with the personality I was experiencing online and hope that it was genuine

but as I am older, I realize I am also impacted by the way a person interacts with others,,,and thats something I need to witness before 'falling in love'

Sure, you can love..but until you meet it is a fantasy.

In my humble opinion, there are many forms of love and you can feel it from talking and getting to know someone online. Once upon a time, people did it by writing letters to each other.

It's not the same as living with them, and dealing with day to day life - but that does not mean it is not real.

I agree, there can be a certain level of fantasy involved, so it's important to keep that in mind and not expect everything will be the same --- if you do take things to real life.

Hell yes cos scammers use sweet words to woo you out of your money... so glad that Mingle 2 has 4 different boxes why you would report someone with the top one saying 'spammer/scammer'! Too bad Facebook doesn't do more about someone pretending to be someone else!
