Have you ever fell for someone you never met?

I met someone last year and we talked all the time. He was everything I was looking for but I think we had met online years ago. So I fell for him. He said don't every disrespect me. As I was trying to get nice things to wear for when me meet in person and nervous. Apparently I said something that pisses him off. He ghosted me. Now he texts me. We still have not met. Maybe I will not like him in person. Wtf Not going to meet him bc of what he did but I really liked him a lot. I had not felt that feeling in a long time.
