I'd really like to think so! I mean my last one didn't but that wasn't because it was online, it was because it ended up turning into a friendship and there was no love there. Though almost three years isn't bad at all! He helped me through tough times and I'd like to think I did the same for him. I'll always cherish the early days of that relationship. I grew up a lot afterwards and I think if you're mature enough, for sure it can work. If you're still wanting to play the field and flirt all over the place, nah. Just stick to friends online xD

My best friend is dating a guy she met on Twitter 3 years ago. They're still going strong because they don't let the long distance bother them one bit

It all depends how much you let long distance bother you, my first and most recent online relationship ended after a year and a half due to her worries we would never get to meet and didn't want to be stressed. Its a mindset thing imo. It personally doesn't bother me but for others it can be everything.

Had two, one for about a year the other for like half a year ish. I was rather immature back then, but they were definitely interesting experiences. I honestly believe it can work for a certain amount of time, if both parties are genuine about it, mature enough to handle the situation and the communication is there. Having an outline as to how they plan to proceed future-wise or how often they want to meet up and carrying that burden together makes a huge difference and gives a ton of reassurance. I also feel like online relationships amplify any problems on a non-physical level - but take that for what you will. For it can be a good thing down the line.

From my personal experience: Online relationships can work. It takes a deeper kind of commitment. However, you have to set a reasonably realistic goal into meeting. Distance can take it's tole after awhile, things don't always sit well in stasis. So it's important to have a job, and have a plan for a place to get things set up with a foundation for yourself and your future partner. I've had two girlfriends that started out online, my first one I was still young, I wouldn't say I was naive per say; but I had no realistic goals set for myself, and for my partner at the time, we never ended up meeting. Though, I can say it was worth the time and effort. She was a good girl, and we taught each other a lot. My second one lasted for 3 1/2 years, ended up being my truly first in love affair. It ended up crossing into person a multitude of times. This one touched all aspects of my life, even on a metaphysical level. It ended up with both of us reaching some impasses and trials. I find talking to girls online at first, you're able to get to know them better on a interpersonal and spiritual level. That you can peer into their deeper sides, before you meet. I think that's a strong foundation for trust, and getting to know one each other beyond the physical level. My only advice is to use your own discernment, and always be honest. You have to be able to make time, apart from your job, work, and chores for your significant other in that way. It takes a lot of effort, but that effort more than pays off with love.

It can, but imo you have to have a high level of commitment AND see the person somewhat regularly otherwise it'll probably fall apart

depends on the people simple as that 90% wont work because its the stress of general dating and then adding distance into the equation not impossible, i know first hand, but not likely
