I met someone over the net more than a month ago. We started to get to know each other and he's been calling me ever since. Things started moving so fast and before I knew it, he was asking me to be his girl and saying that he loves me. He said that he had only said those words to one person, and this would make me the second. He's had a bad break up a year ago. He's really sweet and I think I'm feeling the same way about him. He said that if things go as well as they are right now, he'll come visit me when he gets his vacation and was telling me that he definitely wants to marry me. But, something happened. He had to move to another house and wasn't able to call me this last week. We've only been communicating through emails. The thing is, I miss him more and more everyday, but I'm not sure if this relationship will go well. One thing, we haven't met each other in person. We've only seen pictures of each other. What do you think I should do? Please tell me. Thanks! -A True Internet Love?
Dear A True Internet Love?,
Well, first of all, I'd relax a little bit and enjoy the process of getting to know each other. Internet relationships can bring forth a gush of intense emotion due to how much you learn about each other. It's fun to talk about what might happen or where the relationship could go. But, there isn't a sure-fire way to know if ANY relationship will succeed or fail. If you like him enough to have strong feelings about missing him, you should definitely plan a face-to-face meeting. After that, see where it goes. You may click or you might not. At any rate, enjoy the time you are having and let things progress naturally. Worrying about what may or may not happen is honestly a waste of time. The point of life is to enjoy the ride.
