Here's a better one: my grandfather visiting a friend in the states at his office. Starts chatting with the secretary. - So, where are you from? - Canada. - Really? Wow, you speak very good english!
Although i do spend way too much time on the computer (I'm going out later this evening. Really!) my significant others have been people i met first in real life. Although one i only really got to know through IRC chatting, and my geek girl roomate met her first boyfriend on a BBS.
I'd say that the internet is great for flirting and getting to know people (without all those pesky real life inhibitions!) but its better to base any serious relationship at least as much on real-life encounters. Like programming together, or studying math with a "reward system":)
