****Internet relationships and matches????****

I met my current b/f on Myspace. I had just started to get over my last b/f who was supposed to call me so we could talk about whether to keep dating (we had a TALK and he didn't know how he felt about me after 6 months of dating) and I never heard back from him. I had posted something under my profile about wanting to meet someone who wasn't a loser.
He messaged me and said he thought I seemed sweet and cool and he wasn't a "loser". I don't know what it was but SOMETHING made me reply back b/c I don't usuall reply back when I get messages like that. We started sending messages back and forth and then chatting online and finally after about a month I got up the courage to meet him face to face. I had never met anyone who I had so much in common with! We met and immediately hit it off. He took me to lunch, the zoo, and it was the best date I had ever been on! We decided to see each other exclusively and have been together about a year and a half now. I am so glad I took the chance and met him b/c he's the best b/f I've ever had and one day we plan on getting married. If you have the "spark" just by messaging and you think you really like him, take the chance and meet him. Just see how it goes and if you don't hit it off in person, you'll know it and you'll know where to go from there. Just be careful and make sure you're comfortable meeting with him. Good luck and hope it goes well!!! Let us know what happens!

2 of my friends met their husbands online and they were both not their "type" either. It can work

I'm also wondering how it went!!

I met my finance (we've been together 6 yrs almost) on MSN.. We spoke for 4 months everyday.. Only saw a few pictures of each other... He was so not my type back then.. but I was crazy for him.
We finally met and I didn't really know what to expect. I was glad that I had done it.
I was so nervous before hand, I had to catch a hour long train trip to go meet him.. But that all said and done.. he was worth everything bit of nervousness I felt that day. And he was even more gorgeous in person!!

there's nothing wrong with you. to me, it just means while you still have your preference, your standards have become more broad.
there was a guy i dated when i first moved to florida that was not my norm. he was cute but he made me laugh SO much and that's what really got me. it was like i was hanging out with one of my bestfriends. he liked to watch cops and see people get tased just as much as i did and that was SUCH a turn on. lol! but the difference was this: i'm 5'2 and athletic and normally go for the athletic looking ones who are obviously taller but not too tall. this guy was freakin 6'4 and was about 260. and while it was so out of my norm i actually started to love it. i was loving the fact that when we kind of played around (not sexually but just play fighting) i could jump all over him and do whatever i wanted and it never hurt him. or when i was going to sleep i could just ball up under him and be so content........
man i miss that
but yeah, i think we have our preferences/norms and when we like something thats outside of that we get freaked out. i think it's normal and it makes me feel like i'm growing

so i would meet the guy just to see what he's about. if there's something there attracting you to him don't turn the other way so quickly because he isn't your norm. you might like this "abnormal" guy!
