I was married with kids (and had been with my partner for over 12 years), when I met this dude on a forum we both posted at. I fell for him big time, marriage issues followed, I met him and we were together for around six months when it kinda looked like it wasn't going to work.
There was a distance issue, but also, the more time I spent with him, the more I found there was nothing more to our relationship than the best sex I had ever had. And bizarrely enough, I couldn't quite build a substantial relationship on pure lust.
Now single, I met a man from the US on another forum over a year ago, and still enjoy regular emails and dirty phone calls from him whenever possible. We will meet one day, I guess. But mostly to fulfill our sexual fantasies.
But I've met a lot of other really great people online (forums again - yes, I am indeed a forum whore) - many of whom are close, real life friends. One just has to have their wits about them. Be cautious....discretionary....but also take the risk. Most of the time it may just be worth it.
