I have known 2 apostolic women who did this. One was a young lady from my church. She doesnt seem so happy many months down the road but the other lady who is more elderly has been married about 10 yrs and still is very much happy.
Im sure it works but I would be very cautious simply because you may not have had time enough with that person in life situations to really know how they are. I guess that could be said with people we have known for yrs too.
I met my wife online -on probably the worst "dating" site that I ever used, and then only briefly. After using a couple of much better ones (such as eHarmony and ChristianCafe.com) I logged on to love.com (owned by AOL at the time and which has long since changed) which turned out to be a gay and lesbian and porno bot, love fest. Turns out me -and my future wife, were about the only normal ones there!
Just shows that God has a sense of humor.
My brother and I both met spouses on the internet. The breakups that eventually happened had nothing to do with meeting on the internet.
This is difficult to assume though, since the entire relationship was due to internet dating... kinda confusing.

Articles on such subjects as "The New Birth," will be accepted, whether they teach that the new birth takes place before baptism in water and Spirit, or that the new birth consists of baptism of water and Spirit. - THE PENTECOSTAL HERALD Dec. 1945
"It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves
My sister met her husband online. They both lived in Knoxville and while they were still in the "internet stage" she told him that he better not shoot her a line of ........ because she could find out anything she wanted to know about him. She works for the K'ville police department.
They've been married nearly five years and they're doing great.
