Is it normal to love someone you never met?

So i met this guy on myspace. He lives in california and i live in illinois. We started talking and i fell in love with him. We never were actually a couple. But he would always say he loved me. And i would tell him that i loved him to. Eventually he stopped talking to me on myspace and he stoped calling me. We only knew each other for a month after i fell "in love" with him. And now im so obsessed with him. I always check out his myspace everyday!! And now i just found out that he has a new girlfriend and he wants to marry her and this and that. Im actually really sad and i think he is the love of my life. But he has found a new love. But i was thinking about to go visit him all the way to california to go visit him and tell him that i love him. Should i go visit him or just forget about him..iin??

    seriously? get over it man. you can find the answer you're looking for in everything you've just said. from what you're saying i believe that you're (very) young, so don't go halfway across the country or whatever just to declare your love to a guy who's a. from myspace b. got a new girlfriend and c. suddenly ditched you without any explanation (immature much?)

    geeet ovveerrr ittttt. you'll move on to someone else soon.

    Don't listen to Kimmy Khaos...she does not know what she's talking about because she's never been to Cali..I lived in LA for 10 and this sounds like a case of an old man is trying to lure you in for porn and prostitution...they know exactly what to say.

    Don't go!!! If he is in another relationship, move on. I know it hurts, but, I have had the same type of random weirdo relationships and wishes and you soon learn that it is more a figment of your imagination. If he wanted you, he would have done something about it. I am sure there are many people out there that you could meet. Just get it out of your head, it will be okay. Normal to love the idea of someone online, maybe normal to love them and meet them and make it happen, but, not to go after that person when they have moved on and you never met

    This is normal to feel intense feelings for someone you met through the internet, i myself thought i loved someone i had only known through the screen, but to think that a relationship is possible if he has already found someone else is just a heartbreak waiting to happen. The truth is that a healthy relationship requires more than just good conversation and digital pictures, it also has a physical and in person side, one that a computer can't satisfy. If this person has already cut you out of his life, then going to cali to see him would only reinforce ideas that you are a stalker and can't get over it. If this man was the love of your life then you would have known him for longer than that i'm sure, just give yourself time to heal, and accept that it just wasn't meant to be.

    I have a friend who got hooked up with a chick on MySpace and the picture that she posted was the daughter of a friend of hers. The woman turned out to be old enough to be his mother and she was fat and ugly to boot!

    It's normal, but not realistic. The reason people "fall in love" with men, or women, they meet online is because in the virtual world, we can make them into anything we want them to be, that is the "ideal" partner. But more importantly, THEY can make themselves into anything THEY want to be.

    Did you ever meet this man? The answer is probably no and that is more than likely the reason he suddenly stopped communicating with you. In the real world, he is probably nothing like your "virtual" lover. You wouldn't be the first girl whose virtual Adonis turned out to be a fat, balding pervert.

    don't go to california. it's a bad bad idea. what do you think you'd accomplish anyway. better do what the two above suggest, which is to get over it and move on. your broken heart will heal.

    To answer your original question, yest it is possible. That's how my wife and I met, online. We have been married for almost 8 years now. But since your guy has met someone else and wants to marry her, you have to wonder if he really did love you in the first place. Don't go chase after him, he sounds like a flake.

    No, don't go. That could be very embarrassing because he has obviously moved on. But I guess it might be possible he just moved on because he didn't think that you two could possibly work out.

    I voted this as normal and it is, but that's also the risk. Most of us want someone to connect with and it's easier than ever to do that online. The feelings are real. I have to repeat that: the feelings are real. But the usual safeguards--meet their friends and family, even see them in person--aren't there. This fact isn't lost on the predators out there. Here's a tale to illustrate that: http://www.palisadespost.com/lifestyles/content.php?id=5555

    Of course when feelings take over, people even ignore warning signs when they meet others in real life. But in cyberspace you don't even get the warning signs. Keep yourself safe.

    I think you should go to cali. Fight for what you think should be yours. whats the worst that can happen have him think your a stalker? he doesnt talk to you anyways lol. message him and say your thinking about visiting cali, then ask if he would like to chill. in the end if you dont get him you most likely will have an amazing time in cali, I heard its amazing there, I plan to live there one day, Im a city girl. (: and proud!
