You don't need the internet to hide a part of yourself
Anyway, most long-distance relationships are meant to, eventually, not be long-distance relationships anymore.
I have a friend who has known his girlfriend for four years now. He met her on the internet, and they got along really well, to the point of having romantic feelings for each others. Thus, they decided to meet up, and things went perfectly well. They still live far away from each others, but they often meet up, and plan on living together once they are done with their educations.
On the other hand, I have another pal that met a girl online and thought for the longest time that she might be his significant other. After eventually meeting up and spending three weeks together, they broke up.
It can also be the other way around too, with people moving to different locations after living close to each other/ together for a time. I don't know people to whom it happened that well though, so I can't really say.
