Let's suppose...that you fell in love with a person online..

For that kind of love, nothing is out of the question.
 
I think if they were the one, then as naded said "For that kind of love, nothing is out of the question."
 
I would not quit my job and move. Of course, I'd have already made that very clear early in the relationship.
 
That depends on where we both are in our respective lives and situations. Are the single and available and do they feel the same was at the same depth.
 
I wouldn't do much for anybody I hadn't met in real life yet. I gotta' smell ya before I know if I like ya.
 
Move? Yes

Job? Ok, no problem

Spouse? I wouldn't be online meeting a new love if I was married
 
Sorry can't answer because I don't think I could fall in love with someone online.
 
These kinds of questions are hard to answer as sometimes you really don't know until you're in the situation.

I hope would not be untrue to myself.

I also hope I would not expect more of that person than that person is willing or able to give realizing that this is all in the context of an on-line relationship.

Nothing? What if your online love wanted you to give up a spouse? Or a job? Or move states or countries?

Honestly, bratcat, I dont know what I would do for that person. I suppose I would have to look at the person I am with right now and think whether or not they are better for me in the long run than in the short run. Making big changes too quickly is dangerous, take it from me. It alienates all the people you love.

Love is soooooo strong, and I am learning it brings out the best AND worst in all of us.

Ahhh...but this is where the "let's suppose" comes into play. You had no intention of ever meeting anyone online but you did and you have fallen hard.

Moving to Canada:p

I would never sacrifice myself - who I am for anyone, no matter what.

If they loved you...they would not ask that of you. The most important thing to me is that they feel the same...otherwise...all bets are off.
 
I don't know if I could fall in love online but I could get to the point where I'd want to be with them in person rather than just through pm's, emails, im's, etc. That is when I could fall in love. When I am able to utilize all my senses...
 
If it really is THAT kind of love, you don't look at it as what you're giving up. If you find yourself in a position to allow your heart to reach such a place, then perhaps whatever other things in your life that would keep you from being with him aren't all that important.

Granted giving up children is a completely different issue, but if he is the one great love of your life, one that meets all you desires, he's not going to even think of asking you to do that.

Other jobs can be had, different locales to live in can be found, neglecting to follow what you know in your heart to be true can't ever be undone. And you would fail to grasp the happiness that could be yours.

And, I'm speaking from experience. And I know, one size does not fit all.
