Could You Marry A Person You Found In The Internet? by Vicjustice: 5:49pm On Jan 09, 2011
   With white people or the Westerners, it is considered the easiest, the most convenient and the most helpful way to meet someone, find love and proceed into marriage or some other lasting or pleasurable commitments. But with Nigerians, it is different.
   So, what do you think about online dating, could you marry a person you find online, and if your online chatting and correspondence eventually leads to marriage, would you ever tell someone about how you met each other?
   And what is your honest opinion about a couple who who find themselves online, would you despise them or understand that love can come from anywhere, shape or form?
   Honest comments please: IS ONLINE DATING FOR YOU?

i think i could. though besides meeting online we would have to meet in real life and spend a long time getting to know each other and if marriage is the end result then so be it. I mean if people can marry someone they met at a bar what is the shame in meeting online?
Re: Could You Marry A Person You Found In The Internet? by koolchicco: 5:55pm On Jan 09, 2011
YES - Love can be found ANYWHERE but the couple will have met and courted in real life b4 progressing towards marriage.

For me, deliberating going online to look for a spouse- I don't think so. But having said that, if I happen to meet someone online who I really like and we become friends, meet in real life, start a romantic relationship, fall in love, I could marry him.

You never know where you'll meet your right partner.

Online dating wouldn't be for me because I am off  the market.  To each to their own.  What work for you, work for you.

there is a difference between finding someone online i.e internet was the meeting place you went to meet physically and dating online i.e saying you are dating and you have never met but you communicate over internet phones email etc

Relationships can start from any platform.
Re: Could You Marry A Person You Found In The Internet? by ShyOne(f): 12:57pm On Jan 10, 2011
Yes and we are going to marry

I told my family and they thought I was NUTS!!  They were completely against the idea.

Now they LOVE THE GROUND he walks on - he has proven himself to my parents and siblings.  God is soo good - I prayed FIRST, internet came second.

The naysayers have been proven WRONG AGAIN. Anything is possible with God in it and wrapped around it.

@ poster
Do u want to tell me u have neva seen ds happen?
This happens everyday so there is no big deal in it. Once the see eachother in real life, like each other and understands each other, wot stops them from getting married?
You can meet ur divine partner any where.
Re: Could You Marry A Person You Found In The Internet? by iice(f): 4:27pm On Jan 10, 2011
Hmmm unless we meet. . .it's a friend only zone.
Re: Could You Marry A Person You Found In The Internet? by Nobody: 4:40pm On Jan 10, 2011
I don't know abt "in the internet", but over the internet NO! You have to fall in love with someone to marry them, and I will never fall in luv over the net ever!

If I become such a desperate case, i will opt for arranged marriage.

@topic. I am looking forward to that. I met a Nairalander online. And its working for us.
Re: Could You Marry A Person You Found In The Internet? by zionmmv: 6:00pm On Jan 10, 2011
You guys are even talking about marriage, My own na serious case, grin, What is wrong with dating,these days?

I got to know a lady online. We exchanged very pleasant e-mail messages, then we talked on the phone, which was even better. We had a lot of common interests, and our personalities were quite similar to each other. We agreed to meet at a given place at a given time. She simply did not turn up, nor did she ever react to my subsequent phone calls or e-mails. There was absolutely no warning or any kind of prior disagreement or signs of brush-off.

Abeg people,is she Mammy Water?Because me I dey fear o.Do many ladies consider it natural to dump someone in this way?
