    How to forget a person...

    I have known this gal for over 4 years. She lives in another part of the world. We have been trading emails and talking on the phone through the years and have not met each other in person yet. Deep down inside of me, I don't think things will work out due to the long distance between us. My question is:

    How do I forget someone whom I never met?
    To laugh is to risk appearing a fool.
    To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
    To reach out for another is to risk involvement.
    To expose feelings is to risk rejection.
    Only a person who takes risks is free.

    YOU DONT HAVE TO FORGET You just need to move on
    It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, a day to love someone - but it takes a lifetime to forget someone"

    People change and forget to tell each other.

    Figure out what need she fulfills in you and go get that from someone else.

    I don't think I can move on when I have never met someone that possess all the characteristics of the person I so desire: Good family- (our family knows each other very well), educated, wealthy, loyal, broad-minded, travelling half of the globe, compatibility, sacrificing, kind-hearted (not selfish at all.)

    I think I will not sit here and passively wait. I will have to do something.

    Why ask how to forget her when what you really want is directions to the travel agency? Why have you waited four years to meet her?

    I've made up my mind and have decided that I will go visit her at the end of this year. This will help me bring closure to this relationship. It might turn out good or bad. I'll just have to wait and see what happens.

    Good idea. Better then wondering what if. Plus at least then your curiousity will be satisfied. You can actually see if its something worth wondering about. If it is, then that whole long distance thing will be another issue. If not, then at least you can move on.
    Appreciate the good times and learn from the bad times....
