Look: "You labeled me I'll label you So i dub thee unforgiven" That's for sure 8))http://www.englishforums.com/English/IsInternetFlirtingCheating/3/zdhh/Post.htm#151986Wed, 26 Oct 2005 18:06:03 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:151986noleafcloverI would advise you to talk to him and tell him about your concern. If he is really involved and cares about you, he would take measures for you to feel comfortable. It's definitely bad thing that your boyfreind had lied to you, he may have done it either to find the real facts or just to calm you down. Talk to him and find out. I think such things always show ))http://www.englishforums.com/English/PlzFillLovePerson/blmhd/post.htm#151582Tue, 25 Oct 2005 13:43:39 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:151582noleafcloverI completely agree with Adomi on the matter thal love knows no nationality or language. It's understood that there may different traditions, culture, language, lifestyle.. But that's not the most important thing that determines you relationship. The most important thing here is if you love is real, strong and mutual. If so, you are sure to overcome any difficulties, cause you are more precios to each other than any circumstances 8)http://www.englishforums.com/English/WhatAboutSpeedDating/2/bmdpl/Post.htm#151579Tue, 25 Oct 2005 13:35:49 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:151579noleafcloverMrPedantic wrote: If you omitted the conversation, and stuck to 30 seconds of visual inspection, you could meet six times as many people. MrP Good joke 8)))) But I think this method works for those who want to receive just shallow impression of a persona he's talking to, judging mainly by appearance I think more time is necessary to fully understand a person. Though probably comparative method is the main tool here. You just compare which impression is better.http://www.englishforums.com/English/IsInternetFlirtingCheating/3/zdhh/Post.htm#151572Tue, 25 Oct 2005 13:24:26 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:151572noleafcloverChameleon wrote: I'd prefer to have an open mind and meet new people. I've met several people in real life that I first started talking to online. Some of them are good friends of mine and I never met anyone from online that I truly didn't like at all. I agree with you about open mind.It's bad to tie and restrain oneself with artificial suggestions.My sister met her boyfriend online. She fell in love with him and had to break up her previous relationship. My parents didn't undertsand her 'cause they also thought that you can't "feel" and know the person online. My sister and this guy met and there was no disappointment. Now they love each other and are very happy. I think if the person is sincere you can feel it...
