Falling For a Stranger

Do you think it’s possible to fall for a stranger? I was reading the other post about match.com (I’m a member) so I thought I’d ask. I met a guy not too long ago and are still in email mode. I really want to know someone before meeting them in person. Old enough that I don’t jump into these things and smart enough to take the necessary precautions. Ya, ya, ya, you can never be too careful, but that’s not my question.

Just from all of his emails, I find myself falling for this man. I’ve seen his picture (and it’s dated so I know it isn’t ancient). Is it possible to fall for someone that you haven’t met in person yet? I find it strange to have feelings for a virtual stranger. Yet I can’t help it :smiley:

It’s possible to have a crush. But it’s just a crush. It’s not real love. You have to be able to him get mad, have chances to be unreasonable, know if he’s messy or unaffectionate, well, I could go on and on.

Could you really get seriously involved with someone without seeing him personally a lot over a matter of months? I certainly wouldn’t recommend it.

You’ll never know until you try.
