A person cannot fall in love with someone he or she has never met in person. You can chat for hours, days, even months or years online,
You can really, really, really get to know someone, and the potential for real love can certainly be present.
In other words, online chatting is a very real way to connect and decide if there are possibilities for the two of you. But, the bottom line is, an online relationship just isn't the real thing. Until the two of you get your bodies into the same room for a certain amount of time, you won't know if you love each other.
