Alright folks, im going to go on my rant here and hope it doesnt make it to one of those doomed internet relationships collection lol, though i wouldnt mind if it did either.
Ok, im about to turn 20 years old this april..figured you guys will ask for age eventually. the man im writing in question is 28.
So im a serious girl, that doesnt fall in love easily at all, i have a more cynical and real view of things, but deep inside im a little romantic, just a little. After my last breakup with my boyfriend i didnt go out with anyone or like anybody.for over a year. Not because the last guy hurt me that bad, but because it simply didnt develop, i wasnt looking for anybody and take life as it came.
There was a guy that fell for me, but i just dont have the same feelings towards him. Im a world of warcraft player, this guy that fell for me got me into it. But recently, i met this guy on this game, it was a random meeting, a simple /emote was what started our conversation. He instantly alluded what my character name was about and we started talking alot after we found we had MANY things in common. As soon as he told me what he did for a living(which was the same field i plan to be in) BAM, this strong feeling came over like a flash of lighting and i was completely and undoubtedly sure that this guy was the guy i was waiting to find. Within hours of chatting and playing together we developed a strong connection. and since then, we both feel like were falling for eachother. Now im not one to admit to love easily, so im just going to say i feel a very strong caring and loving feeling towards this man, we can be completely honest with eachother and feel comfortable. We video chatted once before so i can tell you his picture and actions match him, also we use the game to roleplay as if we were on a date online, if it sounds odd, it is but it works. Weve only known eachother online for a few weeks, but we have already decided that this will eventually go farther than just friendship and are taking it slowly. He plans to save and come visit me, im in south california, hes in quebec,canada. I have enough saved up that i can afford a trip too, but is better if he comes (gotta be cautious like any other online thing you know). So my question is to you all:
Do you guys see any hope in this, or you think this will be another setup for failure as an online started relationship?
PS: if it helps you guys to know this, my ex boyfriend and i broke up because he fell for someone else(and much older too) while i was in military training. They met on myspace (crazy right?) they lived thousands of miles apart and he left to be with her and are now planning to get married!
Any feedback on this would be great. thank you for listening to my rant.
