I met a guy on the internet, we actually havent officially met yet. we have been talking since beginning couple days of january and since then there has only been 3 or 4 days we have not talked. Our conversations are not brief/scattered or anything. we can sit down and talk on the net for 2-3 hours, then talk on the phone right after for an hour and then still text each other.... we never run outta things to say... oh by the way we are about 8 hours apart, in different provinces. he says and i agree we have a super strong connection, even tho it may just be through the net/phone and txting... he says hes likes me and well i like him, whenever i talk to him in any form a smile instantly appears on my face and it doesnt leave, sometimes i wake up the next morning smiling bc of him... i want to go and meet him... am i crazy to believe this could actually come out as a positive situation. by the way i'm 20 going on 21 and he's 25.

I think yeah! It could work! Never say Never!
I met a man online, that lived three thousand miles away from me!!!!!
He then moved, even farther away...but, I was very blessed...he had a job that he was making enough money to come to see me in my homestate! We dated for two to three years..and called and emailed each other all of the time..and then, in the summer of 2006, we got married!
This is my first marriage...and this is his fourth!
But, I love him dearly..and I we are totally blessed!
I say, keep goin'!!! If this seems like it is a comfortable friendship/romance, keep on getting to know this guy! I wish you and him only the very best!

It might work out OK, but go S-L-O-W. Be very cautions, & have him travel to you, not the other way around. When you meet him for the 1st time in person, make it a very public place & have at least one very trusted friend or family member along for the ride.
Keep him at arms length until you have had a few dates together, & you have had a chance to build up a level of trust the same way you would in any other circumstance.
There are people who have started very successful relationships over the internet. But there are just too many others who have been burned as well, so pay attention & trust your instincts.

it could work and then again it could be a disaster. unfortunately, you arent from the same town and cannot easily get "recommendations" from people who know him. i would tread cautiously and if you do decide to meet, do not give any last name or address and be sure to meet in a public place and bring a friend or 2! maybe to have them stand by and watch you meet in a public place. if this guy displays a temper or belief in things u do not believe in online or off, or does things u would not do, then dont persue it! maybe learn more about him b4 u meet him if you can. ask him what schools he went to and ck it out w/classmates.com or something. he could give a false name of course. just please please be careful. good people in this world and bad ones. best to u

Have you thought of the possibility that he is not what he says he is? I don't want to spoil a good thing but you have to prepared for that.
It could work. Anything CAN work out but do be careful. If you do meet him, meet him in a public place and have your 'radar' on. It might be beautiful but it might not too.

There is a possibility it could turn out in your favor, But be-ware and leave yourself an out. I would take a friend along on the first meeting stranger things has happened I hope you prevail.

No, it could work. See what happens. Remember, if things work out after an initial meeting you will trade confusion for depression due to distance.

WHY DO YOU HAVE TO GO MEET HIM? CAN'T HE COME TO MEET YOU? IF YOU DO GO, MEET IN A PUBLIC PLACE,AND TAKE A FRIEND WITH YOU. HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT A BACK GROUND CHECK? MAKE SURE YOU TELL SOMEONE WHERE YOU ARE GOING,IF YOU DO GO. IT COULD WORK OUT AND MAYBE IT WON'T. GOOD LUCK.
