I feel that until you spend a good deal of quality time with a person face to face in real life situations, you are only in love with an idea. If it goes on too long, this idea can cloud your judgement. I believe genuine friendships can cultivate, but romance requires a good deal of personal instinct that cannot be clearly felt online, or over the phone. Thatâs been my experience anyway. Exactly !! |

Yes, I agree. I wouldn't give in totally to love either unless we met face to face. At least not now, lol. Here's to finding that connection that turns out to be real Blessings to you too Sis |

Very true...how is an idea long enough to make you think itâs clouded your judgment ? Thanks for sharing your thoughts. |

Don't kid yourself with chats and video, go meet up in person and see how you two connect. Thanks . Does that mean you wonât admit or allow yourself to feel deeply for a woman you havenât seen in person ? |

Some of us are at an age where we are not willing to spend several months or more communicating with someone before meeting. It doesn't matter if I think you might be a good partner; that you can't figure out in cyber land. If you aren't interested in meeting IRL, then why are you on a dating site??? Itâs not a question of not wanting to meet. Itâs the question of how much you think you really feel before youâd want to meet the person. When do you know itâs not just all in your head or in your heart. Communicating regularly without any feelings is quite hard ... well at least ImO |

Ok so I asked someone how do you know what you feel is real? His answer was a simple : the opposite of real is fake. I cannot fake how I feel for you. My feelings are real as I donât think about it and make it up. Now the intensity...that one is still to be figured out. But you keep me awake most nights because I think of you. Thoughts of you make me happy and that is real for me.
And I replied: youâre acting like a teenager lol . And he just laughed more |

It was real enough for me to watch her be with and marry other men over more than 25 years, and I hoped she would tire of a'holes, and want to be really loved by me one day, but no, she always preferred a'holes - always. I gave up on her, and haven't seen her for 15 years, but still can't stop thinking about her. I need someone else to love.
From my point of view, my 'in love' with her was true and real from the start. In fact I first saw her and was very attracted to her many years before, when she was about 10 and I was about 14 and we met while camping at a small coastal town, but back then in the mid 70's she was way young, and I was a shy awkward unpopular (ugly) teen. On the phone at work with our first chats, I didn't know it was her, but we had a connection. Damn my mangled heart. |

I just compared ideas to coffee. Lol! |

Hey.... mangled hearts are the best hearts ever I now understood how you knew it was real. It withstood the test of time. Life has a funny way of teaching us important lessons I hope you find another one who can make youâre heart re set and ready for mangling again sir |

When the time is right, if it is right, I believe you will know. You're a wise woman |

I agree with her response though and would add BUT, I do think you can have real affection for someone online. It would just be difficult to know for certain to what extent is it for the person or the idea. |

I mean that itâs going to be harder to discover how you really feel when you finally meet them in person if youâve already convinced yourself you feel a certain way the whole time youâve been chatting online. The longer youâve felt that way, the more youâll want to believe itâs true. If it turns out not to be, it will be an even bigger let down. |
