I've been with my girlfriend for 3 years... in August I moved to Florida to go to school while she stayed in Ohio for college... Our relationship is stronger now...
As long as you are faithful and have no intention to cheat on the other, I think a relationship can last.
This video actually has some useful tips http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=J_i1tt26n3鈥?/a>How do you feel about long distance relationships?
well it depends how strong the relationship is..
if u love each other and work to keep ur relationship good while ur apart then u stand a chance. but if u guys are not that serious then long distance relationships might not work
i do believe in them thoHow do you feel about long distance relationships?
you're probably gonna get a lot of
';oh, they never work out';
or
';pointless'; answers.
but i've been in one... and it was the best relationship i have ever had, because it was real.
I know I was extremely hurt when someone I loved didn't want to keep a long distance relationship with me.
I think they're for the strong.
Love has no distance =]
since its long distance you wont feel anything

If the question were put straight to Jesus: what would he say about same sex relationships?
What would Jesus say about homosexuality?If the question were put straight to Jesus: what would he say about same sex relationships?
Jesus very clearly said of himself..............(John 5:19) . . .Therefore, in answer, Jesus went on to say to them: “Most truly I say to YOU, The Son cannot do a single thing of his own initiative, but only what he beholds the Father doing. For whatever things that One does, these things the Son also does in like manner.
(John 5:30) . . .I cannot do a single thing of my own initiative; just as I hear, I judge; and the judgment that I render is righteous, because I seek, not my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
(John 8:28) . . .Therefore Jesus said: “When once YOU have lifted up the Son of man, then YOU will know that I am [he], and that I do nothing of my own initiative; but just as the Father taught me I speak these things.
Jesus Christ clearly would have had the same opoinion as his Father, Jehovah God.
What then, did Jesus Christ say about the matter of marriage? He quoted the words of his Father, Jehovah God.
(Mark 10:5-9) . . .But Jesus said to them: “Out of regard for YOUR hardheartedness he wrote YOU this commandment. 6 However, from [the] beginning of creation ‘He made them male and female. 7 On this account a man will leave his father and mother, 8 and the two will be one flesh’; so that they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9 Therefore what God yoked together let no man put apart.”
Jesus Christ clearly made no mention of same sex couples. He clearly stated that God created Man %26amp; Woman and that they should stick together. He was talking about divorce in these scriptures, true. But think about this. If, and I do mean IF, God were to approve of same sex couples, would it make sense for Him to have different standards for them? Of course not! For goodness sakes, that's what same sex relationships are constantly fighting for, equality!
So IF God approved of same sex relationships, then the standards for them would have been laid out at the same time as those for relationships between men and women. But they weren't! Why? Because Jesus Christ and Jehovah God do not approve of same sex relationships!
There are many other scriptural references that prove that God does not approve of same sex relationships, but since Jesus did not specifically address that issue and the question asked was about Jesus' opinion, the answer must be based on the principles of what Jesus believed and taught and did speak about.If the question were put straight to Jesus: what would he say about same sex relationships?
Genesis 2:24 gave us the basic plans of marriage. It says, Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
There's quite a bit on the subject. In The Old Testament, Leviticus 18:22 states, ';Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.'; Also, again in Leviticus 20:13, which states, ';If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.';
There are other passages in the Bible such as Romans 1:26-27, ';For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.';
Genesis 19 makes mention of homosexual lifestyles, and what God did as punishment toward the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Sex was meant to be between husband and wife, to show affection and love for one another, and to procreate. Jesus Christ Himself referred to Genesis 2:24 as the blueprint for marriage when He said, ';Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.'; (Matthew 19:4-6)
He would say the same thing he told the woman caught in the act of adultery.
To bring you up to speed on the story, some religious leaders wanted to trap Jesus, so they brought a woman caught in adultery to Jesus to see what He would say. They wanted to know if He would condemn her to be stoned as the Law requires and thus lose His following, or if He would just let her go free and give them an excuse to arrest Him for breaking the Law.
When they brought her to Him, He began to write something on the ground (nobody knows what He wrote). Then He looked up and said ';Who ever is without sin should cast the first stone.'; He then bent down and continued to write things in the sand with His finger. Some people believe He was writing the hidden sins of each of the religious men, because it says that one by one, from the oldest to the youngest, they all left.
Then Jesus looked up and asked the woman, ';Who condemns you?';
The woman, looking around and seeing none of her accusers said ';No one, sir.';
To which Jesus replied (and THIS is what He would say to the homosexual as well), ';Neither do I condemn you. Now GO AND SIN NO MORE!';
Did you see that? Justice and mercy fulfilled in one giant step! Jesus is the ONLY one who had the right to cast any stones, being without sin, but He did NOT. Instead, He forgave her, and then told her to REPENT! - QUIT!
That's basically the same thing I, too, say to homosexuals - QUIT and receive God's forgiveness.
I think He would say that it displeases God and is a sin like any other sin. We all have sins that we need to overcome, to me homosexuality is no different than any other sin. In the Old Testament it says that it is an abomination and a sin against what God has created.
I'll tell you guys what I think:
We all deserve death(by that I mean we all deserve to go to hell) because we all do bad things.
But that doesn't mean everyone of us are going to hell!
Because Jesus died in order for us to live, yet we must try to obey His law, the decision lies with us to determine if we go to hell or heaven.
God doesn't decide, you do.
He'd quote scripture since he was a Rabbi that believed every word: ';If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.'; (Leviticus 20:13)
Although I do not believe Jesus would say they must be put to death, he would probably be against it. Then again, he might say ';chop you balls off, for its better to be ball less in heaven, then your full body in hell'; because he said something like that about hitting on a girl.
He would quote the Bible like he did when Satan tried to tempt him. He always points to the Bible as the only guide for mankind.
So he would say ';haven't you read';?
Rom. 1:24-27: “God, in keeping with the desires of their hearts, gave them up to uncleanness, that their bodies might be dishonored among them . . . God gave them up to disgraceful sexual appetites, for both their females changed the natural use of themselves into one contrary to nature; and likewise even the males left the natural use of the female and became violently inflamed in their lust toward one another, males with males, working what is obscene and receiving in themselves the full recompense, which was due for their error.”
1 Tim. 1:9-11: “Law is promulgated, not for a righteous man, but for persons lawless and unruly, ungodly and sinners, . . . fornicators, men who lie with males, . . . and whatever other thing is in opposition to the healthful teaching according to the glorious good news of the happy God.” (Compare Leviticus 20:13.)
Jude 7: “Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities about them, after they . . . [had] gone out after flesh for unnatural use, are placed before us as a warning example by undergoing the judicial punishment of everlasting fire.” (The name Sodom has become the basis for the word “sodomy,” which usually designates a homosexual practice. Compare Genesis 19:4, 5, 24, 25.)
1 Cor. 6:9-11: “Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men . . . will inherit God’s kingdom. And yet that is what some of you were. But you have been washed clean, but you have been sanctified, but you have been declared righteous in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and with the spirit of our God.”
He'd probably mumble something and then drool on himself.
(I have a theory that jesus was actually mentally retarded, and that the whole ';sinless'; thing was just a metaphor.)
Jesus would probably condemn the practice of Sodomy because it goes against his Father's Law. But he would be forgiving and understanding of those that erred and are seeking redemption for their sins.
';Repent and turn towards Yahweh,'; and then would say ';go and sin no more.';
Yahshua (Jesus) is the Word, and the Word very clearly says in Leviticus that same sex relationships are an ';abomination.';
Heh, 'straight' to Jesus.
Sorry, just had to point out the pun. Was that intentional, or accidental, just outta curiosity? ^^
Since He had a tendency to quote the Old Testament -
'; 'Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable.'';
(Leviticus 18:22)
Homosexuality is immoral sin. He would ask them to change
God didn't create men %26amp; women to be with the same sex. He created them to be with the opposite sex. Therefore, Jesus would support God. If you don't believe me, try asking Him yourself.
He'd probably just shrug and invite them over for fish and wine.
Well, the only answers you're going to get here are personal opinions. No one knows what he will say.
Go your way and sin no more.
IF he ever even lived, he's dead now.
Dead people don't often say much...
he would do in rome as the romans do.
The wages of sin is death.

What is your opion on overseas online relationships?
I meet this girl by accident online and we hit it off. We communicate every day for 4 months now and it is getting very serious. I have never been in a relationship like this and would like some input or experiences from others on this.What is your opion on overseas online relationships?
I was with someone for almost 3 years that I met online and was across the pond from me. It was a good relationship, and we visited each other every 6 months to a year. However, the relationship went sour when we ran out of things to talk about. We weren't playing the same online game anymore, so we had no more mutual friends or game strategy to talk about, and we just weren't communicating effectively after that.
Had we not had money problems at around the same time that prevented us from visiting each other, it may have worked out differently.
So, from my experience:
1. Visit regularly, plan a schedule if you have to
2. If it's ';really'; serious, don't do things differently than you would if you were not overseas (My ex proposed online, but when I next visited and we got my ring, I was hurt that he didn't get on one knee, even though we'd been engaged for months)
3. Figure out each person's long distance calling rates. I used to call my bf and let it ring once to let him know I was on my lunch break from work, then he'd call me back because it was like 3x more expensive for me to call him than for him to call me.
4. Don't monopolize or be monopolized by your partner. I was depressed for a while because he was 8 hours ahead of me, so he'd go hang out with his friends at the pub for several hours until I got off work, then he'd be online with me till I went to bed. I was deeply jealous that he was with his friends for hours a day and I never had any time because I was rushing home to see him online. Be conscious of time zones and their effects on each of you.
Good luck!What is your opion on overseas online relationships?
all i can say its dont believe in online relationship cause it will never work.i know why im telling u this.i think online relationship are not for trust but if u just wanna spend ur time its ok.i say u should try with some one real,u'll feel more lucky
Most ppl will tell you to forget about it %26amp; not have a relationship online... but my advise to u is.. just do what you feel right %26amp; just be honest with one another.. i have a good buddy overseas online for 3years %26amp; still goin strong even thou we have not meet.. Just think positively...:-)
Good Luck..
from what I hear online relationships are always trouble. So maybe you should try to get out of it.
i met my love on line, i was not looking for love but also was not in a relationship i was on line for research and games and i inentered a chat room on Islam and i met him i was only in that room four times and for some reason the saying is true you know your soul mate when you met them and we have been talking now two years next month,we got to know each other then we saw pics and now we have cam and mic and we will InshaAllah be getting amrried soon also he is from Egypt and i'am from the USA so it is good i think cause we get to know each others heart and who we are with out any others so go for it,and good luck and hope for the best for you,give it more time and she could become your best friend and more just becareful alot of people have good intention and a little not so becarful but also don't stop your heart good luck.
How wonderful for you! I know a couple who got married last year that started off online dating from different sides of the US. The had been dating for a year went to meet each other at the Grand Canyon and are now happily married! Good Luck to you!!!
It could be interesting, real love goes beyond barriers.
There is always a risk involved /even in personal relationships/, make sure she is honest and if you lasted 4months with her is because your instinct tells you something relevant about this situation, maybe she is worth the time who knows.
You take a lot of risk when you invest yourself in any relationship. Having an online relationship is no different, and could even be a bit better if both parties are honest about themselves as it gives each of you time to get to know each other before you even approach the idea of meeting.
There is no insurance in matters of the heart. You just have to be willing to be hurt - not that you will be - and take that leap.
Well, I did have a relationship over the net with someone in England for a little while. I don't think it will work unless u both agree that one day you guys will be together. John and I hit it off really good but now we are just really good MSN buddies. I say go for it :-) it's 2006 the internet is another way of meeting really cool ppl :-)
most of the time it doesn't work because it's based on a lie.
well it happen to my bestfriend an he thought it was goin good but reall yit useless your better off finding someone when u get home or something causeu cant count on it
Sometimes we meet people that we end up spending our lives with in the oddest ways when we're least expecting it.
I don't always think it's the safest way to meet anyone, but it's really no less safe than meeting a stranger at a bar like many of us used to when we were younger. lol
I personally met my husband of 4 years now in a chat room here on yahoo.
We started chatting, we chatted almost everyday for many months before our first real life meeting. I made sure the meeting was in a public place and we did this for another few months and then when we felt like we knew each other better we met each other's families. He finally moved in with me and a year later we got married. We have 2 beautiful little girls now too
I'm so glad I made the decision to meet him because like I said I wasn't looking for anyone at that time. He was just a really nice guy that I enjoyed chatting with online. Once I got to know him offline it all changed and I realized I was in love with him.
So even if it wouldn't be more for you than to be good friends it's always worth giving it a shot as long as you feel safe and start off in a safe environtment for offline meetings until you are sure they are what and who they say they are.
Wishing you the best in whatever choice you make.

I made sure the meeting was in a public place and we did this for another few months and then when we felt like we knew each other better we met each other's families. He finally moved in with me and a year later we got married. We have 2 beautiful little girls now too
I'm so glad I made the decision to meet him because like I said I wasn't looking for anyone at that time. He was just a really nice guy that I enjoyed chatting with online. Once I got to know him offline it all changed and I realized I was in love with him.
So even if it wouldn't be more for you than to be good friends it's always worth giving it a shot as long as you feel safe and start off in a safe environtment for offline meetings until you are sure they are what and who they say they are.
Wishing you the best in whatever choice you make.
To all u male/female players (in relationships) and others?
Why do u choose to become players? or why do u think players become players. I mean in regard to relationships
To all u male/female players (in relationships) and others?
they might have gotten bored of the relationship and think they can get away with this (not get caught cheating by mate)To all u male/female players (in relationships) and others?
Honestly, you just cant help it. It is like a really bad habit. It actually really takes real good woman to break a man out of it. Im so serious. I have always had 4-7 girlfriends at one time. And I mean serious relationships (atleast to them). I was raised up that way. All of my brothers, uncles, friends like had this secret society of how many girls we would have at once. I had girls nick-named Sunday-Saturday. Then one day I got married to one. And It got worse for awhile. Only now after I had my first child have I slowed down to some extent. I mean I want to leave this life but Its hard. I dont approach these women, they approach me at my most vulnerable states. Drunk, or off guard at work. Whatever, these are not excuses- this is a way of life. Let me really break it down to you. If you buy a new car today, that day yourr excited and want to show the world right? Well how will you feel about this same car three year from then? Thats the way it is with ';playing women. Except three years is more like 3 weeks with me. Thats not just it, once you get to know some chicks, they stop doing certain things. Well, if you keep a variety of doors open you will always have backups. I really love my wife, but to her sex is love and emotion. Well to me its the same, but more of a sport with my girlfriends. I hope this helps.
Players play, so they dont have to invest emotions into things and can't get hurt. At least thats why the majority of woman who play do it.
other reasons, just cause you can. Sad but true
They are lonely and like the company and to string people along. They also like physical contact.
Hater
low self-esteem
... not that i am a player
but i have self-esteem low enough to be, lol
Only the lonely get played
as tey r possessive........
because they are insecure!

If the question were put straight to Jesus: what would he say about same sex relationships?
What would Jesus say about homosexuality?If the question were put straight to Jesus: what would he say about same sex relationships?
Jesus very clearly said of himself..............(John 5:19) . . .Therefore, in answer, Jesus went on to say to them: “Most truly I say to YOU, The Son cannot do a single thing of his own initiative, but only what he beholds the Father doing. For whatever things that One does, these things the Son also does in like manner.
(John 5:30) . . .I cannot do a single thing of my own initiative; just as I hear, I judge; and the judgment that I render is righteous, because I seek, not my own will, but the will of him that sent me.
(John 8:28) . . .Therefore Jesus said: “When once YOU have lifted up the Son of man, then YOU will know that I am [he], and that I do nothing of my own initiative; but just as the Father taught me I speak these things.
Jesus Christ clearly would have had the same opoinion as his Father, Jehovah God.
What then, did Jesus Christ say about the matter of marriage? He quoted the words of his Father, Jehovah God.
(Mark 10:5-9) . . .But Jesus said to them: “Out of regard for YOUR hardheartedness he wrote YOU this commandment. 6 However, from [the] beginning of creation ‘He made them male and female. 7 On this account a man will leave his father and mother, 8 and the two will be one flesh’; so that they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9 Therefore what God yoked together let no man put apart.”
Jesus Christ clearly made no mention of same sex couples. He clearly stated that God created Man %26amp; Woman and that they should stick together. He was talking about divorce in these scriptures, true. But think about this. If, and I do mean IF, God were to approve of same sex couples, would it make sense for Him to have different standards for them? Of course not! For goodness sakes, that's what same sex relationships are constantly fighting for, equality!
So IF God approved of same sex relationships, then the standards for them would have been laid out at the same time as those for relationships between men and women. But they weren't! Why? Because Jesus Christ and Jehovah God do not approve of same sex relationships!
There are many other scriptural references that prove that God does not approve of same sex relationships, but since Jesus did not specifically address that issue and the question asked was about Jesus' opinion, the answer must be based on the principles of what Jesus believed and taught and did speak about.If the question were put straight to Jesus: what would he say about same sex relationships?
Genesis 2:24 gave us the basic plans of marriage. It says, Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
There's quite a bit on the subject. In The Old Testament, Leviticus 18:22 states, ';Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.'; Also, again in Leviticus 20:13, which states, ';If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.';
There are other passages in the Bible such as Romans 1:26-27, ';For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.';
Genesis 19 makes mention of homosexual lifestyles, and what God did as punishment toward the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Sex was meant to be between husband and wife, to show affection and love for one another, and to procreate. Jesus Christ Himself referred to Genesis 2:24 as the blueprint for marriage when He said, ';Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.'; (Matthew 19:4-6)
He would say the same thing he told the woman caught in the act of adultery.
To bring you up to speed on the story, some religious leaders wanted to trap Jesus, so they brought a woman caught in adultery to Jesus to see what He would say. They wanted to know if He would condemn her to be stoned as the Law requires and thus lose His following, or if He would just let her go free and give them an excuse to arrest Him for breaking the Law.
When they brought her to Him, He began to write something on the ground (nobody knows what He wrote). Then He looked up and said ';Who ever is without sin should cast the first stone.'; He then bent down and continued to write things in the sand with His finger. Some people believe He was writing the hidden sins of each of the religious men, because it says that one by one, from the oldest to the youngest, they all left.
Then Jesus looked up and asked the woman, ';Who condemns you?';
The woman, looking around and seeing none of her accusers said ';No one, sir.';
To which Jesus replied (and THIS is what He would say to the homosexual as well), ';Neither do I condemn you. Now GO AND SIN NO MORE!';
Did you see that? Justice and mercy fulfilled in one giant step! Jesus is the ONLY one who had the right to cast any stones, being without sin, but He did NOT. Instead, He forgave her, and then told her to REPENT! - QUIT!
That's basically the same thing I, too, say to homosexuals - QUIT and receive God's forgiveness.
I think He would say that it displeases God and is a sin like any other sin. We all have sins that we need to overcome, to me homosexuality is no different than any other sin. In the Old Testament it says that it is an abomination and a sin against what God has created.
I'll tell you guys what I think:
We all deserve death(by that I mean we all deserve to go to hell) because we all do bad things.
But that doesn't mean everyone of us are going to hell!
Because Jesus died in order for us to live, yet we must try to obey His law, the decision lies with us to determine if we go to hell or heaven.
God doesn't decide, you do.
He'd quote scripture since he was a Rabbi that believed every word: ';If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.'; (Leviticus 20:13)
Although I do not believe Jesus would say they must be put to death, he would probably be against it. Then again, he might say ';chop you balls off, for its better to be ball less in heaven, then your full body in hell'; because he said something like that about hitting on a girl.
He would quote the Bible like he did when Satan tried to tempt him. He always points to the Bible as the only guide for mankind.
So he would say ';haven't you read';?
Rom. 1:24-27: “God, in keeping with the desires of their hearts, gave them up to uncleanness, that their bodies might be dishonored among them . . . God gave them up to disgraceful sexual appetites, for both their females changed the natural use of themselves into one contrary to nature; and likewise even the males left the natural use of the female and became violently inflamed in their lust toward one another, males with males, working what is obscene and receiving in themselves the full recompense, which was due for their error.”
1 Tim. 1:9-11: “Law is promulgated, not for a righteous man, but for persons lawless and unruly, ungodly and sinners, . . . fornicators, men who lie with males, . . . and whatever other thing is in opposition to the healthful teaching according to the glorious good news of the happy God.” (Compare Leviticus 20:13.)
Jude 7: “Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities about them, after they . . . [had] gone out after flesh for unnatural use, are placed before us as a warning example by undergoing the judicial punishment of everlasting fire.” (The name Sodom has become the basis for the word “sodomy,” which usually designates a homosexual practice. Compare Genesis 19:4, 5, 24, 25.)
1 Cor. 6:9-11: “Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men . . . will inherit God’s kingdom. And yet that is what some of you were. But you have been washed clean, but you have been sanctified, but you have been declared righteous in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and with the spirit of our God.”
He'd probably mumble something and then drool on himself.
(I have a theory that jesus was actually mentally retarded, and that the whole ';sinless'; thing was just a metaphor.)
Jesus would probably condemn the practice of Sodomy because it goes against his Father's Law. But he would be forgiving and understanding of those that erred and are seeking redemption for their sins.
';Repent and turn towards Yahweh,'; and then would say ';go and sin no more.';
Yahshua (Jesus) is the Word, and the Word very clearly says in Leviticus that same sex relationships are an ';abomination.';
Heh, 'straight' to Jesus.
Sorry, just had to point out the pun. Was that intentional, or accidental, just outta curiosity? ^^
Since He had a tendency to quote the Old Testament -
'; 'Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable.'';
(Leviticus 18:22)
Homosexuality is immoral sin. He would ask them to change
God didn't create men %26amp; women to be with the same sex. He created them to be with the opposite sex. Therefore, Jesus would support God. If you don't believe me, try asking Him yourself.
He'd probably just shrug and invite them over for fish and wine.
Well, the only answers you're going to get here are personal opinions. No one knows what he will say.
Go your way and sin no more.
IF he ever even lived, he's dead now.
Dead people don't often say much...
he would do in rome as the romans do.
The wages of sin is death.

What is your opion on overseas online relationships?
I meet this girl by accident online and we hit it off. We communicate every day for 4 months now and it is getting very serious. I have never been in a relationship like this and would like some input or experiences from others on this.What is your opion on overseas online relationships?
I was with someone for almost 3 years that I met online and was across the pond from me. It was a good relationship, and we visited each other every 6 months to a year. However, the relationship went sour when we ran out of things to talk about. We weren't playing the same online game anymore, so we had no more mutual friends or game strategy to talk about, and we just weren't communicating effectively after that.
Had we not had money problems at around the same time that prevented us from visiting each other, it may have worked out differently.
So, from my experience:
1. Visit regularly, plan a schedule if you have to
2. If it's ';really'; serious, don't do things differently than you would if you were not overseas (My ex proposed online, but when I next visited and we got my ring, I was hurt that he didn't get on one knee, even though we'd been engaged for months)
3. Figure out each person's long distance calling rates. I used to call my bf and let it ring once to let him know I was on my lunch break from work, then he'd call me back because it was like 3x more expensive for me to call him than for him to call me.
4. Don't monopolize or be monopolized by your partner. I was depressed for a while because he was 8 hours ahead of me, so he'd go hang out with his friends at the pub for several hours until I got off work, then he'd be online with me till I went to bed. I was deeply jealous that he was with his friends for hours a day and I never had any time because I was rushing home to see him online. Be conscious of time zones and their effects on each of you.
Good luck!What is your opion on overseas online relationships?
all i can say its dont believe in online relationship cause it will never work.i know why im telling u this.i think online relationship are not for trust but if u just wanna spend ur time its ok.i say u should try with some one real,u'll feel more lucky
Most ppl will tell you to forget about it %26amp; not have a relationship online... but my advise to u is.. just do what you feel right %26amp; just be honest with one another.. i have a good buddy overseas online for 3years %26amp; still goin strong even thou we have not meet.. Just think positively...:-)
Good Luck..
from what I hear online relationships are always trouble. So maybe you should try to get out of it.
i met my love on line, i was not looking for love but also was not in a relationship i was on line for research and games and i inentered a chat room on Islam and i met him i was only in that room four times and for some reason the saying is true you know your soul mate when you met them and we have been talking now two years next month,we got to know each other then we saw pics and now we have cam and mic and we will InshaAllah be getting amrried soon also he is from Egypt and i'am from the USA so it is good i think cause we get to know each others heart and who we are with out any others so go for it,and good luck and hope for the best for you,give it more time and she could become your best friend and more just becareful alot of people have good intention and a little not so becarful but also don't stop your heart good luck.
How wonderful for you! I know a couple who got married last year that started off online dating from different sides of the US. The had been dating for a year went to meet each other at the Grand Canyon and are now happily married! Good Luck to you!!!
It could be interesting, real love goes beyond barriers.
There is always a risk involved /even in personal relationships/, make sure she is honest and if you lasted 4months with her is because your instinct tells you something relevant about this situation, maybe she is worth the time who knows.
You take a lot of risk when you invest yourself in any relationship. Having an online relationship is no different, and could even be a bit better if both parties are honest about themselves as it gives each of you time to get to know each other before you even approach the idea of meeting.
There is no insurance in matters of the heart. You just have to be willing to be hurt - not that you will be - and take that leap.
Well, I did have a relationship over the net with someone in England for a little while. I don't think it will work unless u both agree that one day you guys will be together. John and I hit it off really good but now we are just really good MSN buddies. I say go for it :-) it's 2006 the internet is another way of meeting really cool ppl :-)
most of the time it doesn't work because it's based on a lie.
well it happen to my bestfriend an he thought it was goin good but reall yit useless your better off finding someone when u get home or something causeu cant count on it
Sometimes we meet people that we end up spending our lives with in the oddest ways when we're least expecting it.
I don't always think it's the safest way to meet anyone, but it's really no less safe than meeting a stranger at a bar like many of us used to when we were younger. lol
I personally met my husband of 4 years now in a chat room here on yahoo.
We started chatting, we chatted almost everyday for many months before our first real life meeting. I made sure the meeting was in a public place and we did this for another few months and then when we felt like we knew each other better we met each other's families. He finally moved in with me and a year later we got married. We have 2 beautiful little girls now too
I'm so glad I made the decision to meet him because like I said I wasn't looking for anyone at that time. He was just a really nice guy that I enjoyed chatting with online. Once I got to know him offline it all changed and I realized I was in love with him.
So even if it wouldn't be more for you than to be good friends it's always worth giving it a shot as long as you feel safe and start off in a safe environtment for offline meetings until you are sure they are what and who they say they are.
Wishing you the best in whatever choice you make.
I was with someone for almost 3 years that I met online and was across the pond from me. It was a good relationship, and we visited each other every 6 months to a year. However, the relationship went sour when we ran out of things to talk about. We weren't playing the same online game anymore, so we had no more mutual friends or game strategy to talk about, and we just weren't communicating effectively after that.
Had we not had money problems at around the same time that prevented us from visiting each other, it may have worked out differently.
So, from my experience:
1. Visit regularly, plan a schedule if you have to
2. If it's ';really'; serious, don't do things differently than you would if you were not overseas (My ex proposed online, but when I next visited and we got my ring, I was hurt that he didn't get on one knee, even though we'd been engaged for months)
3. Figure out each person's long distance calling rates. I used to call my bf and let it ring once to let him know I was on my lunch break from work, then he'd call me back because it was like 3x more expensive for me to call him than for him to call me.
4. Don't monopolize or be monopolized by your partner. I was depressed for a while because he was 8 hours ahead of me, so he'd go hang out with his friends at the pub for several hours until I got off work, then he'd be online with me till I went to bed. I was deeply jealous that he was with his friends for hours a day and I never had any time because I was rushing home to see him online. Be conscious of time zones and their effects on each of you.
Good luck!What is your opion on overseas online relationships?
all i can say its dont believe in online relationship cause it will never work.i know why im telling u this.i think online relationship are not for trust but if u just wanna spend ur time its ok.i say u should try with some one real,u'll feel more lucky
Most ppl will tell you to forget about it %26amp; not have a relationship online... but my advise to u is.. just do what you feel right %26amp; just be honest with one another.. i have a good buddy overseas online for 3years %26amp; still goin strong even thou we have not meet.. Just think positively...:-)
Good Luck..
from what I hear online relationships are always trouble. So maybe you should try to get out of it.
i met my love on line, i was not looking for love but also was not in a relationship i was on line for research and games and i inentered a chat room on Islam and i met him i was only in that room four times and for some reason the saying is true you know your soul mate when you met them and we have been talking now two years next month,we got to know each other then we saw pics and now we have cam and mic and we will InshaAllah be getting amrried soon also he is from Egypt and i'am from the USA so it is good i think cause we get to know each others heart and who we are with out any others so go for it,and good luck and hope for the best for you,give it more time and she could become your best friend and more just becareful alot of people have good intention and a little not so becarful but also don't stop your heart good luck.
How wonderful for you! I know a couple who got married last year that started off online dating from different sides of the US. The had been dating for a year went to meet each other at the Grand Canyon and are now happily married! Good Luck to you!!!
It could be interesting, real love goes beyond barriers.
There is always a risk involved /even in personal relationships/, make sure she is honest and if you lasted 4months with her is because your instinct tells you something relevant about this situation, maybe she is worth the time who knows.
You take a lot of risk when you invest yourself in any relationship. Having an online relationship is no different, and could even be a bit better if both parties are honest about themselves as it gives each of you time to get to know each other before you even approach the idea of meeting.
There is no insurance in matters of the heart. You just have to be willing to be hurt - not that you will be - and take that leap.
Well, I did have a relationship over the net with someone in England for a little while. I don't think it will work unless u both agree that one day you guys will be together. John and I hit it off really good but now we are just really good MSN buddies. I say go for it :-) it's 2006 the internet is another way of meeting really cool ppl :-)
most of the time it doesn't work because it's based on a lie.
well it happen to my bestfriend an he thought it was goin good but reall yit useless your better off finding someone when u get home or something causeu cant count on it
