Ok. Im involved in an online relationship with a guy who is living in the UK. Im living in the USA, but i really feel that i really love him. I have seen pictures, and Im almost positive he wouldn't lie to me. I've known him for 5 years now, and I'm not quite sure what I should do because I'm only a 15 year old girl and he's 19. What's your opinion on all of this?

Ok, I've KNOWN him since I was 10, but not been in a relationship since then. Also, I HAVE seen him on webcam. We've never called eachother, though.

Pedophile at 19?! they've known each other for 5 yrs. so he was 14 when they met. Thats the dumbest thing I think I've seen today.

I met my boyfriend online when I was 14. He was 15 then. I saw him a year later. We got together when I was 17. Im now 22. We're living together and thinking of getting married.
Different people different experiences you know. A lot of other people say its dangerous. Yeah, it might be. But its always 50/50, you never know. Yes, I personally think you can't truly love someone unless you meet him. But I also think that it is possible to find special people online. Yeah, there is a world out there too, but after all, the people you chat with ARE in there too, you just meet them in a different manner. Distance is the bigger problem though... Good luck, there's nothing impossible! :)

I used to have online relationships when I was about 12. You grow out of them. Also, you have known him since you were 10? Believe me, he's probably different in real life (looks personality etc) because you can be whoever you want to be on the internet. But it's nice to have a crush and dream but you will eventually move on.

You're not in love sugar, you're infatuated with a fantasy person. You don't know this person (and cannot until you've spent a considerable amount of time together) and you're quite young to be declaring romantic love to a virtual stranger.
It doesn't matter if he hasn't lied to you. Bottom line is MANY couples meet online and think they are a great match, then meet in person and have no chemistry, don't care for each other's habits, aren't compatible at all....
Enjoy your chat buddy from the UK but until you've met and gotten to know one another, that's all you are to each other...pretending anything else is simply setting oneself up for some hurt feelings.

I think that at your age, you should be out having fun and meeting REAL boys in your area. Leave online dating to the cynical grownups.
The fact that you're so serious about this is disturbing. I was in a brief emotional affair with someone I met online and I feel like it kept me from moving forward in my personal life. I was spending all my time online talking to him, or stayng home because he was going to call me. I even ended a relationship because he disapproved of the guy.
You should continue to be friends with him, but place limits on it. You should be concentrating on school and your friends and boys your own age.

That relationship is not going to be legal for two more years. The best you can hope for is to stay friends that long, then, if you still want to, one of you can visit the other.
I met my fiancé online - he's German and I'm American -, but we were both 28. After 3 months, he came to visit me in the US to see if we'd still feel the same about each other in real life (obviously, we did! :) )

isn't it that too far. ur here, he is all the way in UK...ur 15, his 19....sweetie, if i were you, I would not fall for this guy. Unless that u've seen him through webcam. But honestly, online relationships can be dangerous too. just be careful. find someone in your town.

online relationships are mostly not good but as long you remember he's in another country ? or not your are only 15 , don't give him any personal info and always talk to an adult before you meet him
