Is there anyone out there who really truly cares about who they meet on the internet or is it a faulse hope...

I think there are plenty of people. The net should also not be your only source for human interaction. One wise man told me once to not expect anything from anyone and you will never get disappointed by them. Hope this helps.

I don't believe internet love because the person in the real is always different than the same one in the internet.\n\nI perfer to meet someone in real and get to know him from there.\n\nJoyce

I think friendships and relationships have as much chance of surving if started online as any other!  They will only last though, if both parties are actually honest, and true to themselves!  If you are being a different person online to who you really are, then expect to be found out.  It's legitimate if kept online, it's just different when you meet in person.

Yep! That is it, keep in mind this is the world wide web (ya know the famous www. thing) When you are dealing with world wide you are going to get all kinds. You will meet up with people who are genuinely sincere and very kind and who want to be your friend and who truly care, you are going to meet up with stalkers and murderers and all sorts unfortunately we cannot stop it because our world is FULL OF THEM

Nice question, I do love the internet, it links the world together, there is soo much on the net, and more is on the way.\nThe best thing for me about the internet is that you can find ideas, you can reach out to the world and emarce yourself in the random maddness of someone else. \nIts not just about finding a peace of infomation anymore, its about living with the internet not for or on the net but with it, its a hugh part of the world. with this in mind you sould enjoy what it is and keep idea open and free for others to enjoy.

OK YOU NEED A REALITY CHECK.. YOU LOVE A PERSON WHOM YOU MET ON THE NET AND YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE.. WELL GIRL THAT SHOULD BE THE LEAST OF YOUR WORRIES. DID ANYONE EVER TELL YOU HOW DANGEROUS IT IS TO MEET PEOPLE OFF THE INTERNET.. HE COULD TELL YOU ANYTHING AND HOW WOULD YOU KNOW..STAY OFF YAHOO CHAT ROOMS AND GO OUT AND MEET PEOPLE FACE TO FACE IN YOUR AREA..THIS GUY COULD BE A CRAZY PSYCHO..HE MIGHT BE TELLING YOU ANYTHING YOU WANT TO HEAR.. MANY BAD STORIES OF NET MEETINGS.. GROW UP AND ACT RIGHT

Gimee your number and let's discuss it.\n\nSeriously though, while there are plenty of freaks out there, I wouldn't say that most are that way. The internet is becoming more and more legitimate as a way to meet people. However, I do think you're wise to be careful.

I always thought the same kind of people used them, until one day I got curious.  I met the most amazing person online and now we live together, very happily, I might add!  You just have to be REALLY careful about who you give your personal info to, and how much of it to share until you know the other person is OK.  Use good judgement, that's all.

wow just think you get online and you are down in the dunps and you ask for some encouragement and people you do not know offer it to you never asking for anything in return .i think that right there is enough encouragment for anyone to realise that there is always good outthere.remember you are never alone in this world ,there are people out there who care for others no matter what.you are proof of that if people didnt care they wouldnt answer.i have no words to say to you to help you the reason being i dont know what the problem is so as to give you appropriate encouragement .but just think in the fact that there are people who care about others  everywhere and to have one touch your life is a great and wonderful thing and keep it going touch someone elses life with the same and maybe we can get it out to everybody out there who needs a comforting word and gentle embrace .

Yes, it's a problem.  No matter how close you think you're getting to a person on the internet, the rate of information exchange is really very low.  You are not actually getting to know the person, just how well he types.\n\nSo you (and everyone else for that matter) fill in the details with your imagination.  This is a problem because there is a tendency to romanticize, simplify and idealize things.  There's also a tendency to want to be Cinderella and experience the magic of meeting your prince.  This means that you are predisposed to see princes where none exist.\n\nSo you become infatuated with people that you probably should not and sometimes cannot have a relationship with.  I mean, what are you really going to do with a guy who lives on another continent?\n\nThat hurts you in two ways:  first, you suffer all of the loss and disappointment when you realize this guy isn't for you.  Second, the time you spend infatuated with internet guy is time you could have been spending meeting actual people in your area who there really is a chance with.  You've lost all that time.\n\nI met my wife on the internet.  But I was looking only for people who lived near me (she was 10 minutes away) and who I could meet for real within just a few days.  I also met about 30 women to whom I most decidedly did not marry. \n\nThe internet is a tool.  It's not a replacement for your real life.

alot of normal people are on personal sites... even married people...its just another way to connect yourself to the world...just be careful, jerks are on those sites too...most people think that they will appear desparate or something but it can be just the opposite sometimes....real people with real feelings are looking to meet others with same interest..if it works for them then its worth it in the long run

I found my best friend online - my wife.  It was nearly 4 years ago now.  Keep trying - but never rule out finding friends in the real world - they tend to have less to hide!

I believe that we all have some tough issues in our lifes that we will have to face one time or another. From my personal experience I've found that talking openly with someone who shares that experience has been the greatest medicine. Yahoo has chat rooms for every other known thing under the sun, maybe you should push for this with them. Who knows how many people you could help by taking the time to push for a cause you care about.

Well.. It also happens to me.. I'm a person who talks to guys a lot online.. When I'm talking to someone for hours and getting to know him better, I feel like there's a connection between the two of us and that he's worth talking to. On the other hand, when I'm talking to other guys on here, I feel that I'm just wasting my time talking to them and that they're not worth talking to.. But yeah, Its hard when you meet people on the net because of the time difference and it's really hard to catch up with 'em when you're busy.. I am not really sure if my answer will help but yeah, I'm just sharing y'know.. =)

Finding someone interesting is possible, but a crush or liking someone, no not for me. I am a social being like most humans should be. I need actual face time. I'm only online to assist people with their questions. I don't use the net to meet people. You never know who you're dealing with and what their alterior motives are. Be safe not sorry.

I believe it is possible.  My son met his wife over the Internet and they are very happy and good for each other.  Like anything, you have to be careful because there are a lot of idiots out there.
