More of a poll than advice, but...
Can one find love online? Even if the lovers are separated by hundreds of miles? Explain.

In my honest opinon...I'd say most online relationships don't work out. There may be a few lucky duckies out there, but I think finding love the old fashioned way is better.
With online relationships, the biggest problem you're encounter is how honest they are. Anyone could slap on a pretty picture of some dude or chick on their profile, and call themselves 21 years old. And the thing is, you'll never really know for sure what they really look like and who they really are. Online, you can lie about EVERYTHING. You can create your own identity.
Even if you found someone that is telling the truth about themselves, the problem is keeping in touch with them. Talking on the phone is not enough, in my opinion. And since you never see each other, it leaves an even bigger chance of them cheating on you. Some married guy could just try an online dating site just for kicks.
Once you think you know someone really well, and even met them, it doesn't mean you know them. Think about it. The people you interact with every day at school or work, friends, family, etc...you know them all, but you never really KNOW what's behind their mask. If it's like that with people you KNOW, how much safer do you think it is with a person ONLINE?
Lovers separated by distance CAN make it, but only if they TRY to keep it working. They have to constantly communicate somehow and see each other over periods of time. It's a lot of trouble though, if you ask me.
So all in all, I think finding love somewhere in your own home is safer and easier to deal with.

Hmm, that is very much debate able. I believe you can find love online. When you talk you can tell that you share that same interests and seem to make a connection. A person's personality can show through when you are talking to them. Sometimes you can feel the chemistry without being with the person. It's just <i>there.</i> If it's true love I'm sure that the two people will eventually be together, regardless of how far apart they are now. =)

This is a VERY tough and tRicky one. In MY opinion, YES.. you CAN find love online.
If you'd like to get peRsonal heRe, I feel like I could have possibly found 'love' online once befoRe. He was just some online boy, but he meant the MORE THAN the woRld to me. I won't go into detail about ouR fRiendship, but we weRe soooo veRy close. NO ONE knew me betteR than him.. NO ONE!!!! We just clicked sooo well; the chemisteRy was allllll theRe. Well that was a few yeaRs ago, and it's been about two oR thRee since I have last spoken with him, but I still think about him daily - oR eveRy OTHER day at the VERY, VERY LEAST. Now, I'm NOT saying I sit on my ass and mouRn oveR how much I miss him and how I'll neveR get oveR him oR even find anyone else even REMOTELY close to compaRing to him oR anything like that. It's just I think about him all of the time, and I'm always hoping foR his well-being and happiness. To THIS DAY, I **STILL** have *NEVER* found **ANYONE** that has EVER even come close to meaning to me as much as he did.
I'm Really skeptical about the whole idea of 'love' in geneRal, but to find 'love' online just makes you think "OH YEAH RIGHT", ya know??? Like a 'how can you love someone you've neveR even met???', ya know??? But I sweaR... eveRytime I heaR the woRd 'love'.. my mind dRifts RIGHT back to him. I guess I honestly wouldn't classify my SPECIFIC case as 'love', but if I'm eveR asked if I've eveR been 'in love'... I always hesitate befoRe I answeR.
Of couRse, just because I do not classify *MY SPECIFIC* case as 'love' does NOT mean you can not find it online. Some people may think it's silly, but I think it's veRy possible. Bottom line, only YOU know what you'Re feeling... NO ONE else.
