Online Relationships

Am I the only one who finds it extremely difficult to take online relationships serious? It's not that they are impossible, or that it's impossible to Love from Long Distances, But I just find it hard to trust someone's words when i have no way of knowing. I mean, it would be easy to lie, because there's be almost no way of finding out. Not that i do that, but i'm just paranoid. Perhaps this is just from my shitty experiences of having them.

i know what you mean. I dated a guy in ireland once and i live in the USA and i was always paranoid that he would be cheating on me. but ultimately keep trying. you never know what might happen.

Well, I more meant its hard to build the kind of relationship you'd get IRL.. But yeah, the other person could be anyone doing anything, you'd never know it

Who knows maybe you might meet them irl. My friend found her boyfriend on this website and they have met at cons several times ^.^

I don't know. I guess it's just because when I think about something, say asking them to do or not do something, there's no saying they will. Mainly I feel that way because I myself probably wouldn't do it because I'm lazy and I know that I could get away with it.

I hope this doesn't sway your thoughts, but I know how you feel.. I jumped into a long distance, practically wearing my heart on my sleeve, treating it as if there was no distance at all-- only to be cheated on twice in the end. I'm scared, nervous, and feel as if I can no longer trust in a relationship that is suppose to be out of pure heart, loyalty, and devotion, not matter how far the distance. But here I am, healing slowly, and trying to look at the other side of things, maybe even the brighter side of things. You just have to turn the page, don't excuse every person you make a connection with to being some lying bastard.. It will be hard, I'm sure, and it may take a while, because that is the most evident.. But the one will come, whether it is online, or not.

SENPAI~~ Also. Yeah first one i had was actually online/penpals. Chick in conneticut? No. No. it was kansas. Yeah, her name was M-something.. and she was my age. well anyway, yeah she was with plenty o other guys and was lying about A LOT of things. probably had 4 more Long Distance. all ended similarly.
