Met my current lifepartner over a decade ago online--back in the BBS days. We've been together now many years.
For this to work you do have to be a decent judge of character...both online and in real life. Meeting someone online isn't really all that much different, although you do work from a slightly different set of clues.
It's helpful not to be searching desparately, because that distorts your judgement horribly; you get into a state where you're willing to completely overlook the most obvious of warning signals.
The best finds happen when you're *not* looking.
