Have any of you ever met a special someone online?
If so, how/where did you do it?
chat room?
personals ad?
forum?
and if any of the above, which ones did you use?
I'm particularly interested to know if anyone's ever found a chat-room where you can actually talk to people reasonably well....
thanks all

Met Rich-E online and as he's a localton met up. I think it's an okay way of meeting someone but obviously prefer 'real life'.
Wasn't so hot though, but that was cause he was a prick.
See - you get them everywhere .
Anyway, have made some good friends, n have said to Click I'll drive up from Brighton to Staffordshire before 1o this eve, so better get going lol. C ya soon Click!
And don't I know it!
If it wasn't for fairytales, I'd believe that all guys were pricks ~ the proof of all my previous relationships.
PS. Yes, it does sound like research, hence a little bit of vagueness.
Groan.
A select few are clicks!
U keeping that bed warm for me?! Lol, just going down the M25 I think
I'd like to believe that! :yes:
My geog. is appalling.
I met up with Rich-E from this site and we saw each other for a while. It didn't last very long because of the distance.
To be honest, I prefer to get to know someone in real life first before going into a relationship with them. I can't really get to know someone who lives at the other end of the country who I'll barely see. If I could meet someone on here that lived in my area then fair enough but otherwise, no. I don't think it is a good idea.
Met my best friend 6 years ago on the Limp Bizkit chat room
We met up several times over the last 6 years, she lived at mine for a bit, then I lived at hers. Now she's going out with my little brother and they've been living together for 2 years. It's funny how these things work out...
If you set expectations suitably, there's no reason that you can't find someone on the internet and then develop a friendship or relationship offline, regardless of distance.
Really, I met my girlfriend online... what a koinkidence!!
:yes: totally agree.
My other half posted up there *points* lolzabeth, and yus we met through here, been together almost a year and moving in together soon
I met a few people online, been to several online meets for various forums and made some great friends, many I still talk to and ocationally meet with today,
Some I don't and dont talk to anymore, things like that happen.
most relationships fail, no? i think people have a tendency to blame the failings on the fact they met on the internet, when really it's not a factor at all.
like, if you meet someone on the net that lives five hours away, and it doesn't work out, it probably didn't work out because of the distance, but still people say 'ooh, internet relationships never work out'. of if you meet someone online and they turn out to be totally mental, the relationship fails cause they're mental, and still would have done if they lived 2 minutes away and you met them in a more traditional way.
i met my other half on a website a bit like this one. it worked out because we were right for each other and because we made an effort. the internet had no bearing on it. it just acted as a meeting place.
