Yes it’s possible but only they really who who they showed you they are.
sometimes the way a person sounds can out the whole person on another attractive level.
how they walk can also affect attraction
how they interact with others can also affect this and these things usually you can’t tell behind a screen
if you’ve have several FaceTime calls you can have a better perception of this and can be more accurate to if you’ve would actually feel the same in person as oppose to someone who has only texted and seems a photo or some photos, because you can’t tell behind be creating a false person based on how you imagine they talk how you imagine they move based on photo and words.. the love you think you feel will fall apart the moment you see the person is completely different than how you were hearing it and seeing it in your head
if you’ve FaceTimes for long time and see how he talks and walks and talks to others etc, this can give you a better understanding of how he /she really is and then when you meet the love might just verify itself with more passion and desire because maybe Keven better than how you saw it through FaceTimes because if you already like it , then having it in person can be much much better.
so it’s definitely possible but only if you imagine it the right way how they really are and not some way that maybe they’re completely the opposite of. And that goes based on how much you’ve seen and heard from said person.
I believe that when this situation happens it's more like your mind is already believing what you dream it would be like in real life. Sorry sis but you need to stop dreaming of what your relationship will be like one day after you two finally hook up and have spent a lot of real physical time together.
Stop your imagination because it's running away with you. Just be patient and wait and see what reality has in store for you. Be patient and clean out those dreams of what it will be like until you are actually living in the real world with him and then you'll find out if you two are a match for re love❣️
You're right. I will try to stay patient, realistic and pragmatic about him and the situation at hand. We won't know how things are going to go until we meet. Thanks so much! ❣️
Anything and everything is possibly and especially if you believe in it.
And I don't want to be the bad guy but someone has to.
Or not a lot of us are invested in this with you in away.
Because you have been through this before many times
The trigger something happens with your ex you come alive again and start asking all kinds of love type question.
You carry on with this kinda in love feeling you start spending time with each other. And then it's over. And you become quiet again... and I know for me I hate reading about the pain of it all. ..
So with your question anything is possible but this time before you jump right in to it start talking to someone else. A friend no not a friend anyone but that you don't know to well. And alow yourself to be open talk about every thing even in your head say you like the guy. Justnto see what happens to see or to learn something about yourself. Like I said before in some of your question I can fall in love with anyone and I know this but I also know what real true love is
Like, I said, I'm not trying to be a bad guy. I'm just trying to protect you a little bit, but it's your choice. You can do what you want to do. And you're the only one that can so take it for what it's worth . Remember all you have is time on your side
And I apologize again for sounding like a d*** , but i just see things in it , you might not see
Believe it or not, I believe it's possible to fall in love with someone you haven't even talked to. In this day and age with the internet, you can learn a LOT about someone who posts their stuff online without ever talking to them. And you can fall in love with who you learn they are.
You should watch the 2016 movie Passengers. It's a really good movie that portrays that concept.
Ok I definitely will. Thanks.
No problemo, hope ya like it 👍🏼

Not really fall in love per say , but definitely infatuated with someone , which infatuation is usually what occurs when you meet someone new and you are excited about them , hoping they want the same things as you do , but to really know for sure it takes time , especially spending time together in person , so if you never physically met this person as of yet, you are just infatuated with how you think about them , just your imagination about them , but that imagination can easily turn to shit , once you meet them in person and you realize they aren’t who you thought they were. I talk to girls’ on the internet that I never met in person that I am interested in , but until we physically meet , I am just infatuated with them because of how I imagine it to be. Why they say never judge a book by its cover , the same thing goes for pictures as well , a lot of people on the internet post pictures of themselves when they were at their peek , but meeting them in person might be a whole different ball game
u You are attracted to the idea of being in a relationship. Regardless of how much time you spend together online, it does not compare to the experience of spending time in person. . . and when you finally meet in person, he may treat in a way far different from what you anticipate. Slow down and get to know this guy before you give your heart away.
You can love someone yes…. But be aware of if you’re falling for a image. It’s easy to start feeling love for someone but as soon as you really get to know them….. oh. Ehhh…… theh aren’t who you think. And you may loose feelings or even become resentful.
Mmmm... I think you can feel drawn to a person initially because of striking things about them in the beginning, yes. But falling in love and you haven't met? I don't really think so. I think there is a lot more to feelings of love than the sweet things we experience in the beginning. It feels great, but is more infatuation than true love.
Nope. People tend to become infatuated with the idea of a person, rather than that person’s actual character.
It is possible though it's always good to be wary on the internet because it's just so easy to lie and pretend to be someone else. Like it's literally so easy that you or me could do it right now. Like I'll go first, I'm a hot female celebrity making millions of dollars every single day and I'll give every user on G@G ten thousand dollars. A very goofy and unbelievable example but the point is it's easy to lie and pretend you're someone else. Especially with all this new technology and most recently AI shit and deepfakes.
Of course it's possible. But bear in mind, you've only seen him on his best behavior! You need to go on a date with him and see how he interacts with people. If you go to a restaurant, is he nice to the wait staff, or does he treat them like garbage? If it's the latter, that's a red flag! How is he when traffic gets bad? Does he pound on the steering wheel and curse out other drivers? You need to know these things. When a guy feels comfortable with you, he'll stop putting on a show for you, and you'll see his real self. Good luck!
I don't think it's love, but it is a positive attachment that could become love once You actually meet up. Love can survive distance, sure, but it cannot be built over distance. It cannot be built without intimacy (and no, I'm not talking about the act of mating in particular, but of intimacy in general). Falling in love with someone You never met would be kind of like falling in love with a character in a movie, or maybe ChatGPT. All You can see is his/her messages and images, that at this point could all be AI-generated. I'm not saying that's how it is, but there is no proof it's not like this, and this alone makes it less than actual love. You cannot have love without actual shared experiences.
It's possible to fall in love with what you DO verbally know about a person. The only trouble with online only relationships is a large amount of what you don't know -- being with that person IN person -- remains unknown.
How do they spend or save money, do they have manners that equate with yours, what hours do they keep, are they honest and polite, do they have good hygiene, what practices do you share and where are you different.
None of these things come to light with online only relationships. Until you're regularly in each other's company, once or twice a week, you can't determine whether the two of you are fully compatible.
I think its easier to love someone you havnt met yet... its like getting a filtered picture of them. The filter is the phone, and them. You might both be connecting in all the best ways but reality is, its easy to connect when someone shows you all there best stuff and none of the bad stuff that comes with it. Its easy to do that over the phone in a way you can't when you are really in front of someone... We can hide a fart easy over the phone but its not so easy to hide when you are in a car riding somewhere with them. We all have "farts". Love is about being ok with those "farts" and you can't smell them over the phone to know if your ok with them or not.
Falling in love a phenomenon one does not decide to happen. It's most probably a mix of different factors, among which particular mood, circumstances, unconscious needs, psychological traits, and pheromones of course in case of a physical encounter.
To answer the question, I'd say yes, one can fall in love with anyone according factors as mentioned before. The problem with falling in love with a person online, without ever having met in real life, is the imagination playing tricks. Sadly enough many online criminals know how to trick people in need of contact, people who somehow, for some psychological reasons, are desperately willing to believe those criminals, who actually only are aiming at getting money...
m yes, of course... it would be, a kind of falling in love
as long as the right things start to happen though...
I think it's the same as friendships... there's this one guy who's been my friend online for the last 16 years or so and we've never met in person lmao... and I can sincerely say he's one of my best friends today
Aww that's so nice. We plan on meeting in a few weeks so I'll definitely know for sure if it's really real but I think so.
do they live near enough?
They live 2 hours away
so... about an hour, with a faster car... lol
Lol right
You can fall in love with whom each other is as people, and love the connection you are building, and you can get to know each other intimately and honestly speaking live on the phone or video chat (notice I didn't say text messaging because with that, there are still too many unknowns), but it does not take into account everything physical, which is another very, very important element that cannot be removed from the equation of an enduring, successful relationship.
I speak from experience, multiple times. Yes, it is a kind of love, but no, it is not the whole story. Yet.
Good luck on your meeting, and I wish you all the best.
Cheers to love. 💞
I think it is possible to think you are in love with somebody you have only been talking to. The thing about on line relationships is that a lot of it is left up to your imagination. You create somebody in your mind that is perfect. When you meet people in person you see all the warts and moles.
I think that you can like somebody enough so that you want to meet them in person.
Sure.. it's possible that this is how you ( think ) you feel , I have done this a few times and felt completely committed , however ( there is always an however ) there is fantasy and reality , be open to the possibility , but also remain sceptical to the potential reality.
Maybe but I don't think I could ever love an imagination of someone. Even as teen I've never fell for some celebs like lot of my friends did. On the other hand I think they love themselves and they don't love others. Their love is just some self projected ego trip.
Of course, our creative imaginitive minds cause a lot of problems, including imaging things. Love ends up being a projection from our perception. It is not based upon reality of the real human.
The real question is can you choose to love them once you know them and around them!
There is no way around the purpose of this time of life... is to mate and make offspring and secondarily, to resolve our inner selfs to our source. That's what is going on.
Yes it is possible. I met my wife online, playing back-gammon. I was in England she was in the USA. After about one year of continuous contact, which also included texting and phone calls, I decided to visit the USA and meat her.
We married on that visit. I had to return to England and start the procedure to immigrate to the US. That took nearly a year, but of course we kept in regular contact.
I returned to the US with my green card in Nov 2006. We are still happily married and I am now a US citizen.
So in answer to your question. Yews it is possible
Yes, it is quite possible. I'm there now, never intended but... we can't be together for multiple reasons.
But I have some questions:
Have you had a video chat? If not, you should as soon as possible to see if the attraction remains.
When are you planning to meet?
Is this an international relationship? If so, is it possible for you to eventually be together?
Are there ethnic or religious differences that would make it difficult for you to be together? Would your or his parents object to the relationship?
Has he asked you for anything of value besides your time?
No I do not think that is possible. Love is a much deeper thing which involves many things including learning to know the person in and out making it possible for that love to grow on the person which is something that cannot be done in an instant or in some cases find out you totally were nothing more than infatuated with them for usually a sexual reason such as physical looks, position in life., wealth and more.
In the context you put it in, I think it is. You've talked enough to know each other, you know what he looks like and I'm guessing you approve? The only thing, are you sure everything he's telling you and his pics are legit?
Yes they are. He's sent me quite a few pics and they all don't seem photoshopped or taken from somewhere else. He also sounds like he really wants to get serious. Has said it multiple times without me bringing it up first. So I think he's legit.
Sounds great! Unlike what some are saying, it doesn't take a lot of time to feel love for someone. I felt love for my wife after a month of dating. The hard part is keeping that feeling for an extended period of time.
Right thanks. And that's awesome that you felt love for your wife after a month of dating. I hope it's the same way for us.
Yes because our brain fill in the blanks and are speeding away on feeling good hormones etc. Your brain can be like this for about 6 months, then you come back to reality, lol, and hopefully then this is a guy you still like, love the more you get to really know him and not the blanks, your early version of him.
I think it's possible to fall in love with the idea of that person.
But truth be told, you only know of the polished person they choose to show you. Its the edited version, the one where they have time to think of what to say.
The same goes the other way around.
They can be totally different in real life.
I believe is possible to feel attracted to someone you haven't met yet but I'm very skeptical when it comes to falling in love or even being in a relationship with someone you never seen. I don't see online relationships as real relationships.
I think it has got advantages that way because for it to go on there necessarily needs to be emotional content. Most conversation is action oriented - went to work this happened.
When internet first kicked off people struck up highly emotional relationship, leaving their spouse and flying to new continents..
So yeah I think you can.
It seems like you're starting to really like him, and are loving the idea of actually spending time with him.. Now as to whether you're starting to feel like you would do anything to make him happy, or lay down your life for him... Only time will tell..
I love and miss this. I’m so happy for you. Enjoy whatever you’re experiencing right now however that looks.
Thank you.
Probably falling in love with the idea more so than when you actually meet, sometimes it’s more exciting right now what you’re going through then when you actually meet the person, you might be disappointed because you’ve had all these things going on in your mind
No. Lots of people have sexy voices but look like old toads.
I think it’s possible to feel a real connection before you meet.
When conversation is honest, consistent, and emotionally open, you can form attachment, intimacy, and even care that feels deep.
But love needs reality to survive.
Until you share space, body language, everyday moments, and see how someone shows up in the real world, it’s still potential, not proof.
So yes, feelings can be real.
Love just isn’t complete until it’s tested by presence.
BE VERY CAREFUL. You might get "played" and/or scammed. If he wants money or gifts, or says he has a sure fire investment, block immediately.
It's possible to fall in love with a complete fantasy, so yes. You can also fall in love with somebody you just talk to online. Just good to know, much chemistry is just in your head.
It just happened to me last Summer, and we're getting married in six weeks. However, we were able to video chat, so I don't know if that counts.
In love, no. But you can certainly feel attraction for someone you never met but talk to daily. Especially if the conversations go deep and personal.
I guess it's possible, and I think it happens more often with women because we follow our emotions more. Still, I wouldn't let myself get that attached to a man I haven't met in person yet, because it really hurts if things suddenly stops.
I'm sure it's possible but it's also very possible to assign a character you'd like someone to have when you have all that guessing room
I think a strong emotional attachment can happen. Im not sure about love. But each person is different. If you've been in love before and you feel the same now, then it's possible.
Yes. Definitely. I totally know what you mean.
Absolutely not, what's happening is your romantic mind is filling in the gaps, they are making this person perfect that may not even exist.
Yeah I do but more often than not the guy will not, so be careful..
It isn't. But our own expectations may make us believe so.
Yeah, I have. Even without knowing her voice or face. I'm jealous
It can be yes, but to find out if it's all true or fake, you have to meet the person and see his actions and time only will reveal everything...
I wouldn't fall in love , but fellings can grow I believe
YES!
My wife and I texted for over a month before meeting for the first time. A few phone calls, as well, and we celebrated 14 years together a few weeks ago.
I think so. It might be a good way to connect and get to know each other before meeting IRL.
I am truly, madly, deeply in love with someone I have not met in person right now.
The problem with that is people fall inlove with the mental version, but being around eachother offline, gives different vibes
Fuck yes it is… just make sure your expectations are a little lower than you think… everyone bullshits a few years or lbs right
No, but I think it's possible to fantasize about this sort of thing to the point that it becomes a problem for you.
Unfortunately, you can develop feelings with even less contact.
Emotions can lead one to "fall in love" with an AI catfish.
Maybe. But better meet him irl to know if chemistry is there
The person you're constructing in your mind, isn't at all what it will be like to meet. Sounds a bit love bomby.
No, in order to fall in love, you have to see the person, you can't fall in love just by talking to that person online.
If you spend that much time online then he is NOT your man. Don't be a " pickmesha ". Don't have sex for 1 year while dating.
Yes it's definitely possible, however true test of love would be only when you meet him and stay with him for some months
Ugh no way. Shouldn't you know better?
What do you mean? People fall in love all the time being long distance and haven't met yet.
Anything is possible when it comes to love so yes I do
You definitely can. I fell in love with my wife’s voice long before I ever met her.
