We Received a Question from a Girl Saying, “I Love Someone Through the Internet”

Question
We received a question from a girl saying, “I love someone through the Internet, and he has promised to marry me. So, what is Your Holiness’s opinion?”
Answer
The Internet is a serious matter; how many victims it has! We ask you frankly: How can you love someone whom you have never previously known, tested, or known whether he is suitable for marriage? Then how can he promise you marriage when he does not know you?
My advice to you is to stay away from the Internet as a means of finding a marriage partner. Do not marry anyone except a person who agrees with you in character and thought, and this cannot be guaranteed through the Internet. And before that, the question is: How were you able to get to know this person through the Internet? How did the relationship begin?
Finally, do not believe every promise made by men. Perhaps this person who promises you marriage has made the same promise to many others, and God knows best.
