Category: Dating and Relationships
Hi all.
After an interesting conversation with some other zoners, they all said I should start a board topic on here. Everyone who knows a few zone-couples (former or couples who do exist now) can add here.
Um do you mean couples who met on the zone or do you mean just ordinary couples who just happened to make an account on here. I only heard about the zone about 3 months ago but myself and loverboy have been going out for about 2 and a half years now and we are members on here. Thanks for the clarification!!!
*sexy*
K, I was there, and it was a rather interesting convo lol
i can't be asked to list off the couples on here, but that was the gist of the topic of conversation.
I will say taht as most of you know, I am, ok, we are, one of them. Lol. One of the questions were, wonder how many of them have lasted longer than 3 months? I don't know, butw!
So, who's dating who, that is the question, or was, haha! my... I keep saying my, our relationship has lasted for close on ten months no
Well not only people who met on the zone. Just couples who are both on the zone. Like Fabolous and me, we didn't meet on here. Go on now!!
can I add a slight thread .. it would also be interesting to se how many of these couples have met in person..
Good idea. I can add one, well you know which one. And, I think that Agent Orange and Firechild met in person.
Charisma <grin> which one are you dating the Listener or Hagrid?
Cheers

Hagrid is dead, Maddog killed him! TheListener, Simon. And yes I have met him!
My symapthies go out to the late hagrid and hoe the mad dog will be brought to justice indeed. <grin>
Cheers
-B
was it maddog? or a mad dog! lol
i would really like to meet alison becaus we get on really well and it would be nice to see her face to face.
if your talking about the alison i think your talking about then, you do know that she is only 10 or something don't you?
my apologies in advance if you mean a different alison!
the zone has really brought together some couples! yep .. Charis and thelistener, and there's been others though I think they've ended. still it's damn amazing that's for sure! go zone! :)
Yeah but there are quite a lot of couples who know each other fro msomewhere else and one introduced the other to this site.
AgentOrange and FireChild didn't meet on the zone. They've known each other for years,
so, SugarBaby? when ya going to meet goblin?
heheheheheh
Eehm slight confusion here really, I believe it's either Freya or Star that are the most eager to meet the goblin <grin>
cheers

Awa poor them, lol. Well, anyway, any more suggestions for REAL couples?
well lets, see I could use a cyber girl. ha ha. anyone, anyone, I am very clean, can cook. make a cyber romantic dinner! fyberoptic candles, the works.
Eww, typical man, eh? Just wants a woman for cooking, cleaning and sex!! Shame, shame, shame on you!! Lol.
Well, I figured I could talk to her once a week or so!
what, when she shut up long enough for you to get a word in? hahahahahahah just thought i'd say it before one of you guys did .. grin
Yay for Inesle1987. Very well said.
Lol thanks. Careful, Dawson! I'm good at arguing with men. We have one male classmates and we are six girls, so we do that often enough, so, don't start something *grin*.
clara and i have been together for a month and a half now.
Wow cool!! I'm glad for you!
I was just going to ask you about that. Good for you!! I should try and get my bf on here.
Blind-bandit and I met in August of last year face to face before we found out both he and I were zone members. Unfortunately it didn't work out and we tried a friendship. It just felt he'd rather treat me as a machine and not a human being. I miss him yes but I don't know if I can go back to him.
Yeah that's funny, if you didn'T even know you both were zone members!!
electricity and i have been goin out for 2 weeks as of yesterday... we met though another zone member, and ins good for you and fabolous! smiles
Karrie
Yeah, great!! Thanks. I see we have quite a few couples!!
bruceallmighty and i were ones a couple, we've been together for almost two months but we broke up because of my parents. hey were both members of the zone
I like someone, and he likes me back, but we're not going out... yet. And he is not a Zoner, either.
Awa, I wish you the best, Mel, that you will be together one day.
Together or not, I'm glad God brought him into my life. This person is truly amazing.
Yeah, I can imagine. I can definitely imagine how you feel.
Ray a.k.a darkangel and I have been together since February. That's all I'm going to say for now though because some people here know I have a history and I wish not to let anything fly that shouldn't.
Laters,
Kitten/Kitty/Squeaks
radio man and I have been a couple for almost 5 yeasr now. We never met on here,m but we hang out on here a lot. We've met in person to, how cool is that? lol!
If I go out with someone on the zone kill me.
will do Jared.
o.k. Electricity and I aren't dating. Westy and I might start dating in like 2 years... If my plans don't fall through and I can go to USQ (Southern queensland University.)
me and Stefan have been together for 2 weeks and we have met in person. we're both zoners.
Me and anomymous have been going out for about five months now. And we have met, ugh, anyway, awwwww Jared, you don't like us zoners?
Lol cool. I'm only dating someone who's on the zone cause we met. I would never have an internet based relationship.
Well I have a girlfriend from the Zone who means the world to me but I rather not say her name at this point in time. It is long distance nad all so hopefully this one works out unlike my last one. I wish the couples on or off the Zone the best of luck, thanks
MP, don't worry, Wildebrew already said he'd kill me if I ever did, and he's watching me.
Oh right. Lol.
bg, I'll kill you too, specially if I think she's not up to scratch so be warned
So, do most of you who have a zone-BF/GF know them only via the net?
retro and colombian princes
funcky monkey and sheperdwolf (or at least I think)
well we didn't know at first that both of us are on the zone he has only logged in a few times we met through a friend but brandonmcginty and i have been together for over 2 months, and yes we know each other in person. he's great!!!
omg forgot about this board lol
oh wow, this is an interesting board.. lol
Yunno some of this frankly sounds like Snopes material ... I mean, my brother's a gamer and met his wife on the net probably 15 years ago now, and I have another friend who met his girlfriend on the net, but other than that, never seen it. Crazy. But whatever floats ...
lol
I'm engaged to a zoner. We're keeping a low profile though, as far as the zone is concerned. Anybody I talk to regularly would know who he is though.
awww
I could say I'm engaged to one too, for shock value, hahahaha no not really. But I am dating one. And fuck the bitches and haters backwards while running up the stairs (backwards) with a shotgun. I'll quite cheerfully beat them off with sticks. *grin*
That's right. Don't let anyone get in your way. Believe me, some may try. Hahaha.
I've dated a few zoners in the passed, but not now. There are still a few hot ones left lol :P
I like how this topic mentions an incredibly few number of couples.
I've dated a couple of people from the zone, the most serious of whom I got engaged too, but it was a stupid thing to do, and I vowed not to do it again, and my current one is far from the blind zone community.
I know that when I first joined the zone, I promised myself I would never date anyone from here. Well....I guess you can never say never. Lol.
Yeah. never say never.
Funky Munkey and Shepherd Wolf are a couple. I've met them in person, although briefly.
hey, some of the zone couples work out in the long run. Just because both people happen to be from the zone, doesn't mean they're not going to work out because of it.
hmmm. I dono who brought up this few decades old topic in front?
anyways, keep going.
Raaj
lol meanyyy
So few couples get mensioned because so few truely become couples, most are flings, if we get honest.
I've seen people get together on here who really loved each other, and a lot who were as james said just flings. being a zoner doesn't make you immediately undesirable, it just makes you someone to be wary of until you know each other better.
i think most zone couples are only to fling, there's no love, unless you truely meet that person in person.
i think perhaps Stevo and dark sapphire the latest couple of zone?
Lazy and I are a married couple on the zone. We met before he knew about it. I was a member for a couple of years previous.
lmao stevo and I are not a couple despite what everyone thinks. We are close friends, and we joke around a lot. :)
Am extremely hoping in March when I fly to DC to meet goofball76 we can make it official. I did not meet him here but he does get on here and I had no clue until a few weeks we started talking.
awwww good luck.
wait, you arn't Kerri? I was right! whoop! wait, should i mention my amazing relationship? well we met over 2.5 years ago on here maybe? i'm not sure i don't think so and its been over 2 years now. its mad i swore i'd never get into a long distance relationship... well actually i never gave it much thought
lol danny. we weren't at that time.. we were for a while, but we aren't anymore...
Awww...
Well, I always said I'd never date anyone from the zone, but.... well, let's just say things have changed. It's not official YET, but we're getting there. I do agree that most relationships on the zone are flings at best, but as so many people have said, there are some nice guys on here. This is going to sound mean, but look for the quiet guy in the corner who doesn't have that much to say publically. Also like someone else said, just because a person comes on this site, don't automatically label them as a weirdo because I've met some nice people on here.
I do have a question though. For those who have done the long distance thing, and have been serious about it, how did you keep it going? I've never done something this long distance before (no he's not in the UK).
What I find so funny even now is that up until five weeks ago yesterday, if you had asked me about dating, I would've said "No way. I'm too busy. I'm graduating from college, and I have no idea where I'm getting my masters, so I don't need an extra complication in my life." Well, that bit me in the butt for sure. LOL, Life is funny that way, but as my hopefully soon-to-be would say, "Don't knock it."
cool. smiles. good luck to all.
I can't really tell u how to make it work or how not to make it work. But, I can say, if your going to get in one, make sure the person is worth it. Cuz it'll be hell at times. Just wishing you could b near the person, see them, touch them, have them in your arms. My boyfrined lives in the UK. Its a hell of a long distance, but there's noone like him. So, its worth it. Also, make sure, that theres great amounts of trust there. The last thing u want to be worrying about is y he isn't answering phone calls, emails, or msn messages. Also, because you can't be there, and u really don't know whats going on. Its not easy, but, if u genuinely care for the person, it can be better than a local relationship.
Communicate. Not constantly, but at least zonce a day. And again, make sure they're worth it. I invested nearly a year of my life in to something that wasn't. But shit happens and it taught me a lot. Have a strong connection. I don't mean simply how you connect when you communicate. And I don't entirely mean the connection you're thinking. I don't know how to explain that. The only word I can think for it is connection, closer than skin. interpret it how you will.
there's probably loads I'm forgetting.
I've been in two relationships with zoners the last one has cost me more than i could put into words. the person i was with has been mentioned by someone else on this board even if not by name. we've been together for one year and i went to see him, i was definitely serious and i thought he was too then one day suddenly i find out through two other zoners he was with two other girls at the same time promising them the same things he promised me. if this person wasn't a zoner he'd have done the same thing. my point is like others have said relationships work out or not, not depending on if the people involved are zoners. i don't think i'll ever be in one again, zoners or not, but that's a different story. good luck to those who aren't lying cheaters and really care about the person they're with, if such people still exist, i wish you the best.
well put kayla. good advice.
This has been stressed here, but I'll stress it again, because yes, its that crucial. Comunication, comunication, comunication. It is seriously one of the only things holding this kind of relationship together. Sure, you have the mutual attraction, but it is afermed by comunication. So take advantage of it to its fullest, and use it to prevent issues of trust, personal differences, and even those petty disagreements from spiraling out of controll. This might all seem like things that you already know, or should not have to read again, but until you two really meet, it is all you really have to keep things together.
If you compare your relationship to a house, are you going to forget to do something as vital to its long turm standing as skimp on the foundation?Comunication is that foundation, like it or not, and threw it you build everything that innitializes what you either will or will not have. While it is verry true actions speak louder than words, and both of your actions will come in to play down the road, if you build up a good strong front end to your relationship, you're going to have less to worry about, because the tules to get to the bottem of your issues will be right in front of you, should you choose to use them.
I like all this advice. I mean, most of it I already knew, but it's been nice to hear from people who have done the long distance thing.
Am in a relationship with goofball76 as of Feb. 3rd. Can not be happier.
I will say this about long distance relationships: If you can make it work until that faitful day you finally meet up, it's worth more than I could ever put into words. I don't think I'll ever take that for granted.
See, me and mine aren't calling what we have a relationship yet. I mean, it's not that we aren't attracted to each other. We just want to meet before making it official which is totally fine with me.
Jess, i couldn't have worded that last post better. its simply unbelievably. the first time and subsequently every time you meet up with that person in future, its all worth it. sure you get the days where you doubt its what you want to do, and people around tell you its pointless and to find some one local, and to be honest it sucks when its your family doing it quite a lot. but personally, this is unbelieveably hard at the moment, but if both parties are happy, you'll one day prove the doubters wrong.
