Can you love someone you hardly know?

[Thor]

Like someone you just met at a party.
Like your favourite movie star or a celebrity(Do not forget that they are different in real life).
Like someone you know on the net, but have not met in person.

Yes? No?
How so?

[Yeung Gor]

No I don't think you can love someone that fast, it takes time to built a bond strong and deep enough to be call love. What someone mistook for love is just a very strong instant attraction (Infatuation).

The only person you can love whom you just met would be your own child on the day they are born.

[LuNaR]

yes i already love jaded wenEr

ps: if u ever break up... theres still me

[oGaKirA]

No you cannot love someone who you have not had any personal interactions with.

I personally think you know it's true love after you've made love with that person.

Therefore, i know not how this is possible over the internet.

[sheraldine]

yeah, but cannot remember where i met him. what recalled however, he in his smart and white uniform. After knowing, nearly eloped. Does that answer the question?

[rosely]

LOL - there are people out there who love someone unconditionally even never meet in person.

Sometimes people follow the heart more than the brain, so yeah illogical decision happen all the time. My advice, stay local, same GMT and meet the person first.

[remember_Cedric]

Maybe it's love? Maybe lust? Maybe crush? That person may just bring you a hearty feeling and brighten your day by leaving a few simple words just for you, or just seeing the presence of that person make your day. So, what's that called?

Bahhh...I rest my case and refused to answer.

[xJadedx]

Hahaha at LuNaR - that's funny.

I personally don't think you can love someone you hardly know - have a crush on, or lust after, yes. Love, no.

[jiang bao]

Nah, it's hard enough to truly love someone you've known a long time. Doubtful you can really love someone you barely know. It's just an infatuation.

Of course you have to know a person well before you can love them. I don't agree that you love a person just because you made love with them. A lot of times, people have one night stands, were horny,etc..so they just went for it. It does not mean that they love them...

On topic, yeah it might be true that fond of someone you never met is not love, maybe more like a crush or infatuation.

[kay &!*]

by "love", if you mean fantasizing about them and having naughty thoughts everytime you see them, yeah i love a lot of people.

[Bubblegum]

Yes, I think you can have a crush on a person you've met online. When you get to know that person there's something about their characteristics that you like, and then your feeling grows as you spend more time getting to know them better. Besides, there are people who like to imagine things that aren't necessarily real.

Just imagine two persons communicating for months, spending time together online, sharing things, arguing, laughing etc. Even between friends, sometimes it can stir the heart and produce *feelings* if not for both it's possible one of them will.

Are we going to blame that person? Some people got heart of stone but some people got soft heart and passionate and easily *turn*.

Anyway what I'm saying clearly not on topic coz the topic says *someone you hardly know*. If you spend lots of time with someone even online and you share things, I'm sure that is not in the category of "someone you hardly know"

[jiang bao]

IMO, if you're spending hours online interacting with someone you've never actually met, it might be better to use that time to interact with someone in real life.

I don't mean that as a knock by the way.
