    Hmmmm....

    Just a bit of advice, if you please.

    So I hang out at a forum, and there is a poster who has caught my eye. From his posts I see we have a lot in common and share many view points.

    We have been carrying on a mild flirtation, sent a few photographs back and forth. Everything seems to be on the up and up.


    The more I talk to him the more I like this guy, any advice on taking it to the next level? Should i keep playing somewhat coy, or make my interests obvious?

    Why don't you just go slam your fingers in a car door? That's just about as likely to make you happy as hooking up with some guy you met on a forum. Don't look at doppelganger as a role model- it almost NEVER works out.

    So what you are saying (using dopplegagner as an example) is these things only wok out for deviants?

    No, there are plenty of deviants on forums that would never get that lucky. Look, do what ever you want, but keep your expectations low. Like ground level.

    I agree with Giga, most of the time forum relationships are not a good idea, they rarely work out. Most of the time due to distance, lack of face to face chemistry and physical intimacy.
    Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
    Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
    Towards the sun, carry your name
    In warm hands you are given
    Ask the wind for the way
    Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
    Accept all as it is and do not blame
    God or the Devil

    I am in a relationship with a person I met on a forum... been almost a whole year now since we met. Fortunately our plans sort of collided and made it easy for things to work out; I studied abroad, she got an opportunity go go on vacation, ended up coming here. Everything worked out. 30 days I am going to her country and meeting her friends and family. Then we are going on a 20 day vacation together.

    It rarely happens, and it barely ever works out. I don't really remember how it started, but at the beginning we weren't serious about it, because of how ludicrous it was.

    It's tough, too. It takes 2 strong people to make something like that work out. The relationship has to be strong as hell. The love and trust has to be there.

    Relationships are complicated enough IRL. Why would you ever deliberately *start* out as an LDR? The online part makes it that much worse.

    Might as well get a RealDoll and a skype chat whore for audio.
