Has anyone met their new man on the internet and it has worked out?

[MeAndMyGirl]

Split up with DD's dad about a million years ago and as a laugh went on internet dating site and started talking to a man who lives in Northern Ireland; I live in Scotland. Anyway he came over the other weekend and it was fab and he is coming over in another couple of weeks. He has sent me lovely presents in post, called me loads but not in mad stalker way and is v funny.
He seems v normal and kind and funny; but I am not sure. I just wondered if anyone had any good outcomes of meeting online?

Teahouse, you are NEVER to old!! After a year or so of internet dating I met my DP on e harmony. We live a way apart and are likely to stay that way for a while but 6 months on we are very happy. We both have children who live with us, I am 47 he is just over 50.

I met my dh online - a friend decided to add my profile - at the time I wasn't really interested. However ... my dh got in touch, we emailed and went out for a meal the following evening. It felt as though we had been together for years.

We celebrate our fourth anniversary next month, and have a beautiful three year old. :)

Hello

I met my DP on Plenty Of Fish and we're a month down the line and are already planning our future, we well and truly clicked on our first date, we live less than a mile away from each other, he told me last night he loves me and can see us married in the next few years...........so yes it does work, although I went through a few doubts because it seemed to be going so quickly but we get on so well it's not an issue :)

Good luck and ignore the stigma attached to Internet Dating, if it feels right then it probably is

miranda that's exactly how my DP and I feel, great to know you are married and happy :)

I met DP on PoF a little over a year ago. We've just bought a house together, relocated from London to Scotland and are completely wrapped up in each other. We both knew from the second date that the other was a keeper. And we are both unromantic sceptics.

For what it's worth, before I found DP I met and dated several men from various dating sites. They were all - without exception - nice, normal, intelligent, witty, caring blokes who like me had busy careers and lives and limited avenues to meet potential partners offline. Some of them I had dinner with once or twice but developed no chemistry with, a couple of them I dated for a few weeks/months. I'm aware that there are a whole lotta weirdos and jokers out there and that possibly I was just lucky not to meet any of them, but in my anecdotal experience there are also plenty of genuine men looking for relationships.

Lemonylemon, I'm so sorry for the loss of your DH.

Crikey honey how dis you find that out? I bet it was a shock,

Met my Dp on POF- there are some wierdo's on there but there are some lovely guys too. We chatted for ages before we met up.

Took it slowly for a while, moved in together 4 years ago and been together 6 years Monday , just gone.

I'm not a gushy person, by any means, but he is one in a million, and I'm very lucky that I 'fished' and found him

I met my boyfriend on sex/dating site and it's been 2 months, going rather well :) after 7 years of toxic/abusive relationship/controlship it's a nice change :)

Met my lovely husband on the Internet.

Very happily married 6 years on!
