naimee answered Sunday January 8 2006, 4:10 am: Personally, to me. I think that they would work.
Like, in a way - it seems sorta pathetic, since you haven't met that person before & y'know all that fun stuff. But, like in a way it's cool because you get to like experience something new.
I've had a few internet relationships in the past, and all of them turned out horribley. But that's what you get. Haha, I'd so be willing to try another one again though. =)
hollisterxbitch17 answered Saturday January 7 2006, 5:07 pm: not so much.. you dont really know who the person is you are talking to.. it could be a 50 year old male child rapist.. if you know the person personally or a close trustworthy friend of yours has seen this person before and knows him, then he MAY be safer.. but if its just a random stranger who IMed you and you started liking and no one knows who he is.. then it is probably not safe.. and it also probably wont work.. because how do you go out with someone you never see, never talk to in person, never hang out with.. i would say just stay away from online relationships. <3* [ hollisterxbitch17's advice column | Ask hollisterxbitch17 A Question ]
PeppersRock answered Saturday January 7 2006, 2:31 am: You can never trust anybody online. Lets say you go into a chatroom and somebody instant messages you saying that they are your age and an attractive male from the same area. You shouldn't trust what he says because for all you know he is some registered sex offender looking for his next victim. If you tell him what you look like and everything, he will most likely plan to meet up and something might happen. The only online relationships that work are the ones that you have outside of the internet.......the REAL ones. If your boyfriend has a screename and you talk with him, I think that would be okay.

brunette_baby_2997 answered Thursday January 5 2006, 7:53 pm: NO! think about it if he lives in Flordia and you live in Tennessee you would never be able so see him just talk to him when yall are on the internet you would never know what hes truly like or even what his voice sounds like or he might be cheating on you and you would never know!!! but its your decision im just saying lol! hope i helped
xkymayxo answered Thursday January 5 2006, 6:48 pm: no. they dont work. well they might but you dont get the same affect you do when you actaully get to see each other. [ xkymayxo's advice column | Ask xkymayxo A Question ]
Mackenzie answered Thursday January 5 2006, 3:52 pm: Not if you plan on keeping it that way 'forever'. My question is why must you title your relationship with the "dating" status at all? If you honestly think you have feelings for this person, go and meet them - that's the first step. Then just take it from there, and see what becomes of it. But if you feel that you will never get a chance to meet this person, then don't bother trying to keep a healthy and honest "online relationship". It won't work.

Kr4z3y_Ch3lly answered Wednesday January 4 2006, 8:11 pm: well i personally wouldnt do it because im the cuddly type and need contact with the person im with. if i were in an online relationship id start getting bored (no im not talking about sexual things just hugging, kissing, cuddling, things like that) and want to break up cause id never get to do anything with um. it would be really hard for me. but if you just looking for someone to talk to and not have to worry about anything sexual or if you dont need hugs and kisses and just want someone there for you then i say go for it. basically i see it as being in a relationship with words cause you never get to see them your just reading what they type and i think that sux. but if thats really what you want you can try and make it work but normally it doesnt work. :[
beautifulcatastrophe answered Wednesday January 4 2006, 8:11 pm: first id have to get one thing straight.
if have you met this guy before and he moved or goes to a different schoool. then maybe, it might work. i actually wouldnt suggest it though because i tried that once and it was really hard not to actually be with them. also, they could easily cheat on you unless you truely know that theyre trustworthy.
if youve never met this person before then no. i would definitly not suggest an online relationship with someone youve never met. like all the others said he could easily be a rapest, murderer, stalker, etc. its not only probably not going to work, it could be potentially dangerous. oh, and myspace pictures do not count as meeting the person. going to google under images and findind a picture of a guy to put in there is not very hard.
ShortBlondie12 answered Wednesday January 4 2006, 7:44 pm: NO NO NO .. I would not do that it is very dangerous . You could come in contact w/ a murderer or a rapest or even a stalker . I am sure you can find someone @ your school that you will like . [ ShortBlondie12's advice column | Ask ShortBlondie12 A Question ]
crazayyXblondeXox answered Wednesday January 4 2006, 7:41 pm: In my opinion, I would actually be scared just because you could talk to him, and event. meet him and he could be a stalker, murderer, and all that stuff.
