I dont understand long distance relationships, where all you do is text. You meet via chat room and you text or whatever and than you date...It doesn't make sense to me how you can date someone you've never met you've never been able to hold or anything.
There is no emotion in text, I understand that people can use webcams and stuff but even then its still just an image. I dont see how you can fall in love with someone you only see in pictures. There are plenty of people in the area for you to actually go out and man up and date someone close.
I feel like dating via internet is just pathetic.

Honestly I think that if they want to do it then they should just do it. I always said that love has no distance. So only because they don't exactly live near each other doesn't mean it won't work out.
I understand that its more complicated, and that's why they may not work as easily compared to dating face to face. But if two people like each other, they'll be together, no matter what.
That's just my opinion.

My uncle meet his current wife on an online dating site, now they are married, live in a decent house, and have 3 amazing kids. They were in a long distance relationship for a little more then a year and it worked out just fine. Long distance relationship can work and can change your life, so whats wrong with them?

I find it strange to date an individual that you've never physically met in real life. But as for per say maybe you fell in love in an exchange student, that would make much more logical sense than dating someone you've never met. Speaking of this, my step aunt gave my step-cousin full permission to fly out to Ohio to encounter someone she met on the internet. Now that's creepy. Just my 2 cents.

It's because you get to know them as a person, it's far more pure than hooking up and jumping into bed, you get to know each other as personalities, and then when you do meet up you already have that bond, the girl I'm seeing ATM I haven't actually met up with much, we mostly communicate through text because neither of us has a lot of time, however when we do meet up it makes it more special

I agree 100%. I would find it very hard to only "Text" my girlfriend every day. I don't understand whats so satisfying about it either.
The one thing that makes a relationship special is spending time together, and you don't really get that from "Texting"

I'm not in a long distance relationship, but I'm talking to a girl who lives 3 hours from me. I'm friends with her cousin so I get to see her when she comes to her cousins, but I enjoy it. I have my license so I occasionally drive to her house but with work and school that doesn't happen to often

There are numerous counts of individuals that claim that a long distance relationship is much more exciting than that of an ordinary one. As every time you see them again in physical life, you get the same emotions and feels of when you first met them. As for the texting part, that would become dull extremely fast, that's why you have Skype. Then again, you can't best the tension of being with someone in real life.

I understand that the feeling will be like 100x better after not seeing someone for like a year only over skype, but I dont understand how you can catch feelings for someone you met online. Never like in person or anything just on the internet. I mean I know that Im good with talking to people so I dont freeze up when talking to girls etc... I find it MUCH better to be with the girl and talk face to face.
