There is a lot to think about and worry about when you are in a long distance relationship. Especially one of this magnitude. The two of you cannot see each other even monthly and that takes a toll on the relationship. The fact that you haven't met means nothing. You two can still have very strong feelings for each other and possibly love each other in time if you really get to know that person. It's hard though. Distance is a real killer. Some people can handle it while others can't. I am in a semi long distance relationship myself and I know that having to wait so long between visits is a real killer. I miss him terribly and the pain hurts me more then you could possibly imagine. You are probably better off that you haven't met him yet. This way, the internet is still enough. You want more but the internet is enough. Once you cross that line and meet him, everything changes. You'll miss them more and sometimes the internet is not even close to enough to sustain you. You want to physical contact but you can't have it. I guess that's when most people would consider cheating. I myself have never cheated on my boyfriend and never will. I can't even think about doing such a thing. Ok...Getting back to the topic at hand. Online/Long Distance relationships don't have a huge success rate but if you are both committed people, this is really what you think you want, and if you are willing to wait for each other, then go for it. The minute there are any doubts on either end, then you should worry. Until then, don't. My cousin met his girlfriend on the internet, moved half a country away to be with her and now they are getting married. I met my current boyfriend on the internet (we were friends online for 2 and 1/2 years prior to meeting) and we are still going strong. We love each other dearly and there really isn't much that could break up a relationship as strong as ours. There are plenty of success stories out there so don't be discouraged but just be aware that there is a good chance this will never work out the way you want it to. Just have faith and stay strong and all your hopes and dreams could become a reality one day. Stay strong and good luck. If you need someone to talk to, we are all here to support you. Even Illusional...in his own sick and twisted little way.
