    I have seen an online relationship work, but it was approached with the intent of it not ALWAYS being online. That's one of the important parts about it, it cannot remain online or it will fall apart, just like long-distance relationships.

If we had decided to make a romantic relationship out of it, it wouldn't have been an internet relationship, just a temporarily-long-distance relationship. Now, though it's not what I wanted, we ended up just becoming friends, and even if went somewhere else and couldn't talk to her but online, it still wouldn't be a simple "online relationship". Online relationship rarely work, because of the lack of (for lack of a better term) closeness. There's trust, physical contact, plenty of things that you don't have except in a "real" relationship.
    In Iraq?

    Fail.
    It wasn't an online relationship, slick. That was my entire point. It didn't matter if it was while I was in Iraq, or at a Klan rally in Oklahoma, or bombing abortion clinics in Georgia, or wherever. The point was that it wasn't liked I lived eight thousand miles away, I was just staying there for a little while, and I'd be pretty close to the girl when I got back. So we could make plans to meet on a semi-regular basis, which would disqualify it from being classified as an "internet relationship".

    In the future, please be smart enough not to make a post with the sole intent of...whatever the hell that was supposed to do.

    I read someword like Psy and Misfit lasted a minute or something.

    Could be wrong.

    It doesn't matter because they say Psy is with me now.

    EDIT: Wait, am I gay or am I a girl?

    Online Relationships only work if both people are commited and love each other to wait to see each other. The advantage though is you know that the person doesn't only like you just for your jugs or whatever, in most cases. That's my two cents, anyways. They CAN work, but it's not common.

    Xander and I worked, and is working, but then we met each other within a week of saying "lol ur pixels r hot", and kept it to talking on the phone from then on along with usually seeing each other at least once a month.

    So, not exactly an online relationship, even from it's inception.

    Yeah, I would hardly even call you guys a long distance couple let alone an online couple, because you two don't too far from each other, which is good.

    50% of marriage couples get devorced, the only way <i>any</i> relationship has "worked" is if one of you is dead, and not of a suicide or killed by the other one.

    EoFF has a romance virus?!?!
    Umm... actually Long Distance stuff just doesn't work.
    They are LD.
    "Like, dumb!"
    Well not really.
    But it gets rather boring after a while, never seeing the person.
    I've dated other girls long distance before though, because the pressure to be physical isn't so evident/

    Tôi đói.

    It wasn't like that with any girlfriends, but that's totally how it is with Tiff.
