It is impermissible for a young man to communicate with a non-mahram woman except for a legitimate purpose and within Islamic guidelines. Mere playful interaction between young men and women on the internet is forbidden, whether it involves joking about marriage or anything else. The prohibition becomes even stronger if it involves joking about marriage, as it is a great sign from Allah and a solemn covenant.
