Could you fall in love with someone without having ever seen them before?

[MCheetah]

Say you talk to someone online. They can somewhat prove to you they are the gender they say they are by sending you candid pics, but cannot show you their face, or much of their body. But they are highly compatible to you and can deeply understand and relate to you. Do you think you could fall in love with them?

Yes, I could potentially fall in love with someone sight-unseen.

No, I couldn't ever fall in love with someone I can't see.

Unsure.

1. Why can't they show me their face or much of their body? That's a huge warning sign.

2. No matter how much you talk to someone on the phone, you don't get to know them until you have spend some time with them in person. If you fall in love - sight unseen - you have fallen in love with a fantasy you have created in your head, and it may or may not line up with reality.

You can never forget the way someone made you feel. It will be rooted down in your heart. So, yes if that person made you feel special you can fall in love with that person.

[mindNsoul]

I couldn't but not because of looks. But it would seem suspicious and I would not continue the conversation. I already encountered two scammers online pretending they're something they're not. So no I can't.

I person can be interesting alone due talk. For love or being enamored there is personal contact necessary for me. It's more than just talk and even pics can't convey that.

No. Their is always a phsyical element to sexual desire and by extension romantic desire. Doesn't mean that the physical is all that matters, just that it is an important element. If you could fall in love with some one you have never seen before, then their would be no sexual orientation since your attracted to their mind only. For me my primary attraction is for the mind but secondary is physical.

If we never met then yes, but if we never met and then we did meet, then it would cause a change in what I thought they looked like, so if we both stayed anonymous then yes, I think we could do that.

But WHY would you do that?

Like... Genuinely... Why?

[DizzyDesii]

Believe it or not, its happened before. But i try to avoid it now because im usually disappointed with how the person ended up lookinh

[Jjpayne]

It's possible... But you do need that in person part to figure out the chemistry piece in person...

[Lliam]

It's impossible to "love" someone you haven't met in person or spent a lot of time with. All you can do is "fall" in infatuation.

[Passionfruit03]

It’s possible but for me personally I prefer to fall in love with someone that I’ve already met. That way I know what kind of person he really is and I can see his actions towards me better.

[Fromdusktilldawn]

Yes, has happened multiple times. Always repented it.

[Dchrls78104]

I hope not! There's too much "catfishing" going on in the world these days.

[JosyJosy]

I think so yeah
