Sage The Gemini is most known for his insanely popular club hits, “Red Nose” and “Gas Pedal”. Kaylin Garcia is known for her brief role on Love & Hip Hop as Joe Budden’s girlfriend, now ex. A few peeks at their social media accounts and you can see that these two really like each other. They’ve even made it official, they’re boyfriend & girlfriend. What you may not know is that they have yet to meet offline.
Â
In an interview with Wild 94.9 Sage talks about how he met Kaylin by DM’ing her on Instagram thanking her for making an Instagram video to his “Red Nose” song. He says that she didn’t hit him back at first but after making a joke on Twitter about getting ignored, Kaylin responded. Sage goes on to say that although she’s his baby, he hasn’t met Kaylin in person yet, but he plans to see her soon. “It doesn’t have to do with looks. We’re getting to know each other. We’re doing this the right way.”

Of course someone asked Kaylin’s ex, Joe Budden, his thoughts and Joe will be Joe!Â
LMAO!

So, what are your thoughts on internet relationships? I’ll give my opinion on the subject, whether it’s the unpopular opinion or not. I think that in 2014, with the amount of time spent on social media it is almost impossible to not meet someone off of the internet and form some type of bond with them. I think shows like “Catfish” exaggerate the need to be careful online and neglect the fact that people have got to be just as careful offline. In 2014, with things like Skype, FaceTime, Google Images, etc  it’s impossible to be catfish’d by a person’s looks. Most times you can Google damn near everything you need to know about someone and if you can’t find it online, chances are the person is a great liar both ON and OFF the internet.Â
Â
I happened to see some people clowning that Kaylin and Sage hadn’t met yet and was a little confused by it. Mainly because I know some of the people personally and I know that their last 3 “boyfriends” had no idea they were even in a relationship. I mean, at least her internet man claims her, right? Â It’s not like they are married without meeting. They’re getting to know one another. They’re talking to each other, bonding on an emotional and intellectual level, haven’t had sex yet — you know, the way it used to be done in the good old days. We get Baller Mails every day from women who met their Baller, slept with him and can’t even get a text message after words. Meeting a man off Twitter is really the lesser of two evils. I mean, the women Darren Sharper was raping didn’t meet him on Instagram.
Â
I say all that to say that time’s are changing and in my opinion, it’s no longer taboo to find love over the world wide web. The dangers of someone not being who they say, are just as high as they were if you knew a man since high school and come to find out he’s living a double life. It’s important that no matter HOW you meet a man, you are careful and you follow your intuition. If it feels like a bad situation, it probably is.Â
Â
So how about you personally? Have you dated someone that you met online and if not, would you consider it?
