I am in one and have loved it thus far. We are in separate countries but have met in person 4 times and he will be moving to be with me when we get everything figured out.
Anyone ever start an online relationship that worked out?

No. I was married long before the internet truly became a "thing". My youngest brother, however, met his wife over the internet.
I have.
I'm not going to give any names, only that I met them here and, well, they're the last person I've tried to have a relationship with. >.>

I have - I am happily in a current relationship (just over eighteen months) with a girl who lives in England; we will be meeting for the first time next year, and then she is going to be coming over to visit me in 2017, before finally moving to New Zealand the year after.

One person... many times. It was on again and off again due to the occasional argument. We never got to the point of an in-person meeting. It came to a finalé when my love and trust was continuously tested one too many times, and my quick and emotional reaction to a dangerous situation led to a one sided and harsh phone call; leaving me with a broken heart and a reality check to walk away permanently.
...But I'm not saying that a relationship that starts online has low chances, just the same ups and downs, risks and troubles with any other kind of search for a relationship. This is merely one account.
All of my relationships I have ever had, have been with people that I have met online. They were great and I ended up having the greatest memories with them even though that I have never met them face to face c:
I could never regret knowing those people and liking them :3
To be honest, long distance relationships seem to be the best since your feelings are a little stronger x3
How can you determine something impossible, if you've never tried?
Yes. Twice. 0/10 would not recommend.

once when i was a naïve teenager, during the young aol days of the internet...
we met through a chat room of similar interests (anime), and we both lived on opposite ends of the country (me in california, her in new york). i can't explain or remember the details of why it came to be, maybe it was just the obvious reason that we were both lonely, but whatever, we ended up liking each other a lot. after a few lovely months of endless chatting and long distance phone calls (which my parents were pissed about), reality suddenly struck me. i realized there was very little chance of our relationship going further since our lives weren't exactly running parallel at the time, and obviously 'cause of the distance too. so as much as it hurt me, i wrote her a long letter with my thank yous and goodbyes. she reacted very sadly but she understood, and then we both ended it
Tons. grew out of it though.
Anime is a lot like sex. Done right it's a beautiful act of creation that brings a little more light into the world. If it's sick and wrong... it's even better.

I think every online and long distance relationship I knew of when I was in college fell through.
But I think online relationships would be really different these days though because of things like Skype.
Heh. Actually, have you ever seen the movie "Her" ? I wonder if you could actually go outside on a "date" or picnic or whatever with your smartphone out like that. It'd probably be weird. But maybe the fun sort of weird.
I'm a sappy AF success story.
I've been married to SGI for 9 years now. We first met on this site in 2000, hitting it off as friends. As I lived in the US and he in Australia, I don't think either of us expected a relationship to occur. However, long story short, it did, we married, and I moved to Australia to be with him.
I'll never claim it was all sunshine and roses, or that it wasn't at times extremely difficult. The best advice I can offer is: communication is key.
My personal experience is terrible, but I think that is more my problem than the people I was with.
So I wouldn't recommend it but... Reading other posts, maybe it's not so bad?

No power in the 'verse can stop me...
Ive had a seriously relationship with someone that lasted for 4 years online.
Didn't a lot of people started a relation online before in real life?
I remember when I was a pu55y d3str0y3r in habbo.
I met and had my first boyfriend through a social media site. My best friend in real life knew him and I "met" him thru her online. I met him in person within a few weeks of online conversation. It really was overall not a very good experience for me but everyone has different outcomes = )
There have been many pros and cons with the ones I have had. Some seemed to go along like they would then end up fizzling before anything was decided. Putting it simply, online dating was/is not for me. It was easier to talk about things and stuff do to not looking at each other every single conversation, but it was also harder since only 1/3 of the relationships I had been in online were NOT cheating on me, but the 1/3 that weren't ended up changing how they talked, things they enjoyed and did not enjoy, and ended up being extremely creepy. Think the ones that fizzled out before relationships started out were far better than the relationships that had happened. I do not talk to any of them any longer now though.
But I do know of plenty of people who have made it work out. This one girl, I call her Soul, met up with this guy almost 6 years ago, they met face to face 4 years ago, married 3 years ago, and are now going to have their second child. They are extremely happy and could not see each other with anyone else. It all depends on if people can be honest with everything (Note: i had been known to do so in the past too, everyone has at one point or time to look cooler, smarter, more humorous, to see more interesting, ect), can keep talking about everything (such as issues with each other, issues with real life, issues with other people, having a good day, a funny joke you heard, ideas for life decisions, ect), and also compromise with each other (changing day/time to talk online, trying something new for the other, ect).
It depends on the people in the end, though.
I am no more a rose than I am its thorns.
No more a gentle breeze than I am the hailing storm.
I am no more hated than I am loved.
And I am no more heartfilled than I am heartless.
This is who I am.

OH yes, sure.
Could have had the same result by setting myself on fire and drop kicking myself down some stairs.

I did, we had this thing going on for three months, but lack of communication caused us to drift away. Looking back it wasn't too serious though.
Check out my blog dedicated to anime pls ~
Twice, not into it anymore though.

I wonder if it has a lot to do with age/stage of life. I mean in high school you don't have a whole lot of ability to act on the relationship, so it's going to be pretty limited even if it's very good and lasts for years or whatever. In college, well, there were always bunches of freshmen arriving that wanted to keep their high school relationships going.
We considered them "single but they don't know it yet." So I figure it's hard to have such a relationship in college, since there are so many people around that you'll want to date. You're also tied to your college and may have very limited funds for travel.
But once you've been out in the world a while, especially if one of you has financial success, it seems like things could be really different. You've got a significant capability to travel, and maybe to relocate if you're so inclined.
Well for hundreds of years meeting people in person often worked out way worse

I don't want to get catfished.
Eh.... Technically I guess. I wouldn't really recommend unless one of you actually plans to move closer together at some point.
Also kiddos. Be safe. In this growing age of technology more and more people are meeting their bf/gf's online.
Never meet anyone in a private secluded area. Always meet in a crowded well lit place THAT YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH!
Take a friend and if you can't TELL a friend exactly who you're supposed to be with, where, and what time.
To make sure you're not being catfished maybe chat on skype or similar devices (keep your clothes on)
