A few Truths..........
Now that am back on this bilaz Train was wondering if the rules have changed, I have been away for almost 2 years n am still tryin adjust, but I will definately..
Damn! Si I get cold feet on first meetings actually been once on a blind date, had to teremsha 2 Smirnoffs before meetin him n it was fun watchin him all nervous n anxious,I just sat there staring at him amused..LOL! That was da last time he saw me..
By da way, have actually phyisically met afew of u in precise 4 jamaas one chile..n it's been interesting, anyway let me let u in kiasi..
Blogger 1..This one also happens to be my best Friend,Our friendship has been through alot n she has been through hell too but we all have our flaws n what matters to me most is I believe her n she trusts me..
Blogger 2..We have been chattin for a while but I was'nt so eager on meetin him, am never good at first meetings, anyway am Club Sound with pals n I decide why not so sms'es Flow n in 30 mins he's @ the entrace, Good time-Keeper am lovin it! It's shockin, he's totally diff from what I had in mind, anyway we have fun, he falls for my gal n I think she has a thing for him too.They hit it off sawa.Anyway we live in strange world, n strange things happen bt he's still one my best..& anythin 4 him......
Blogger 3..He was my regular, Was his greatest fan, We met thru a mutual friend,had no idea it was him until after 2nd meetin, n it was awkward alittle bit..n I could tell he was so nervous..bt after that he gave my blog ablack out,I have never & may never understand why! Nway am still his greatest fan n will always be..
Blogger 4...Was datin my gal, n had promised not to reveal myself bt after afew pints I gave myself a way..LOL! Now that's one hell of a funny guy so funny than his blog..He kept me laughin all through! N he is cool.A real gentleman..by tha way(Am sorry 4 being stubborn n difficult) I sometimes get there when am tipsy..(Shame on me!)
Blogger 5....This one met him accidentally can actually say that, Rezorous past mid-nite, wasted, get introduced am like "Klara" Laughs huskily (I must add) & says am ----.Am like "the blogger?" " Yes!" am gettin sober now, he's like "I Like ur blog", Shocked now..How did he know me?? Apparently had seen my pix somewhere n had figured out! LOL! Now that one was an intriguing, fast-talkin, handsome jamaa(Those guys that make u wish u were single n free to mingle :P)

By the way it was fun meetin u all n will definately be meetin more of u!
Anyway this post was made to seek advice; Is it possible to Love someone u have never physically met? Lately been feelin closer to this guy n yet we havent met..

    Ok was here first!!!!
    Bilaz? Am sure you are only there for the ride otherwise suitors ni wengiiiiiiiiiiii
    On meet ups never met anyone but sure as hell chatted, talked to a few and they surely make interesting and at times freaky pals.
    On feelings for this guys whom you have never met: is the feeling mutual??
    Why don’t you meet?

    It is always fun to meet fellow bloggers "in real life" for the first time. I'm going to a friends wedding about 3000miles away[4800km] in 3 weeks and I'll be meeting someone I met online almost 2 years ago for the first time. We're good friends now and am looking forward to meeting them :-)

    As for falling for someone you've never met IRL, it is quite possible. Especially if you communicate with them and get to know them through their words. People can put on a facade for only so long before it cracks. So if someone has been writing for over 6 months, glimpses of the Truth of them will peek through, even if they are trying to hide it. And if they are NOT trying to hide it, then you really get to KNOW that person, without having all the pitfalls of the physical getting in the way.

    A question-what is the drinking age there? Cause I was thinking you were like 18, maybe 20 at the top, but then you mention drinking smirhnoffs, etc. So either the drinking age is lower there than here[21 here], or you're older than your writing style hints at.

    it might b possible, but there's something about meeting someone and finding they ar a whole lot different from what you thought before. unless you guys were perhaps meant to be.

    :-) *very big smile!*

    its possible to love someone you haven't met - or at least like them very much. And then you meet. Now that is where the story starts...

     
  • At 2/6/07 22:09, Blogger Admin UD

    Its very very possible my dear. No further comments. You should rather keep it as, what i call, Open Love

     
  • At 3/6/07 04:36, Blogger Makanga

    Meet them first. Then make up your mind.

    That's just the practical me talking...what do I know....nothing. Chatterly said it.

    It is very possible to love someone you never met before. Very possible.

     
  • At 3/6/07 15:52, Blogger Unknown

    I believe that the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Like any non-face to face media you can only tell how a real blogger will be like by meeting him/her. But from the blogging style and writing you can definately develop a liking for someone.

    Hey. Where have i been? Lets see, meet them first and then decide. Online people can be so different from their person...

    aegeus

    am i to guess archer is one of them? his loud smile gave hima away.

    i know about meeting bloggers and getting totally different image. i already have oen for you and you look...look. oh my goodness, is that you?

    like someone said najua suitors ni wengiiii...so wacha kudoea ride yetu. shuka..panda love hoppa.

     
  • At 4/6/07 13:23, Anonymous Anonymous

    i think i like some1 i haven't met (yet) either lol aki.
    plus i've been there b4 and we actually met laters and dated and then i found out he's a blogger, woi if any of u find out who he is u'll be shoked,2 very different pple, opposites attract!!

    klara, it's possible,it happens, and i think by the time you get to meet the person,you're already comfy with him as a person then comes the physical part..if ure lucky u wont be dissapointed.

    archer u seem very happy>u must be blogger 2 ama 5.

    Hi clara, nice blog

     
  • At 4/6/07 18:00, Blogger egm

    The image created online by someone's writing may be different from who they are as a person. I agree with those who say meet him then decided after that.

    @DJ, the drinking age in Kenya is 18.

     
  • At 4/6/07 23:39, Blogger Prettylyf

    Muy interesante is all I'm saying...

     
  • At 5/6/07 00:51, Blogger ~ScotchBiscuits~

  • At 5/6/07 03:25, Blogger Quintessence

    wonder where i have been.i think it can happen, as emotional attachment develop with each chat...i think i like your experience...meeting other bloggers.

    ha!n just manage to crack the default setting of yua foto..is th@ menengai or the great rift?
    your article also inspires me to write about my love...watch th@ space.

     
  • At 5/6/07 18:25, Blogger Komi

    Number 100 here. Yup, I believe it is possible to 'fall' in love with someone you have never met but staying in love depends on how you feel after meeting him and where both of you are headed.

     
  • At 5/6/07 20:01, Anonymous Anonymous

    KOMI couldn't have said it any better!!

    weh sweets ngoja mucene..aki if u laugh..

     
  • At 5/6/07 20:24, Blogger jm

    It is possible. I am in this exact predicament with ms. anonymous

     
  • At 5/6/07 21:23, Blogger Unyc

    Give us names...we need names..lol

    Being in love with sme1 u hv never met actually does happen. Strange as it is, its quite possible.

     
  • At 5/6/07 22:10, Blogger 3N

    I would say NOT possible. The person is thousands of miles away and you have never seen them, I don't know what kind of love it would be.

     
  • At 6/6/07 06:18, Blogger Juju

    met only one kbw blogger. hope to meet more when I come home at the end of the yr. Well, as for falling in love over the internet... it happens u have to be careful that it develops into more than an illusion.

     
  • At 6/6/07 12:27, Anonymous Anonymous

    Yeah I do think its possible to fall in love with someone you havent met if indeed they have revealed their true personality. Caution though is very neccesary. Make that leap of faith

     
  • At 6/6/07 23:36, Blogger Booker

    After reading more of your commentors comments, :-), I'm beginning to wonder if your writing style is more of a culture thing than an age thing. It would explain a lot :-)

    and thanks for not taking it the wrong way!

     
  • At 7/6/07 22:35, Blogger Parisian Cowboy

    I've really enjoyed this post. Glad to see that some people fell the same way as I do.

    i see ma klara been up 2 some game meeting bloggers & all. by the way, the next time ur in ug, i sure want 2 meet u. who knows, i could even convince u 2 appear on radio. anyways, true u can fall in love with a stranger. but exprience tells me its not just the person you'vent met that u fall for. either u fall for her music (if (s)he happens to be a singer or u fall for her writing (if (s)he happens 2 be a writer. and on most occasions you find them completely different than what you had in mind & the love bug that had possessed u goes crushing.

     
  • At 9/6/07 23:28, Blogger Farmgal

    I know am coming in very late ...
    I believe its possible to really like someone online but until you meet, you cant actually call it love.
