I personally can't fall for someone online, especially if I never have or never will meet him. Also the internet is a scary place sometimes. You can be anything or anyone behind a screen name.
Here's a little story on why one should be careful with meeting people on the web:
My sister hooked up with some guy off an internet dating service and ended up marrying him :apuke: The best way to describe him is a control-freak-nazi. He talks to her and her kids like he owns them. And all he talks about it money. Her first husband was killed in an accident 3 years ago...so we all know that means there was life insurance. I have a feeling he is one of these guys who marries widows...takes them for all they got and leaves. I ran his name thru our lovely court system and found 3 divorces, an annuled marriage, and 2 other incidents where he was charged on 3 counts of aggravated assault and class 5 felony influencing a witness...other than all that he's a great guy
I found all this out AFTER he told my mom his wife of 14 years left him and he had been single since 1991.
I am sure there are plenty of good matched made on the web but I bet more bad than good ones have been made.
