 Keep your options open.
Who knows he may move closer to you in the future or your path may cross.
Distance is no barrier if love is true.
You can always chat online and see each other everyday on webcam.

 Yes you can but it will be hard work is the not so short answer. You have to be really willing to work hard at it because it's obviously not like normal relationships in the sense that not all the things you do normally can take place. You have to substitute txt, phone and MSN for normal contact and the problems with all that is that you cant see things like body language.
If either of you are insecure then be prepared for the fact that insecurities might flare up and work to reassure each other as much as you can. Try and tell each other as much as you can about each others days and keeping the other as involved as possible. Is it possible you are confused because on the one hand you like this boy but are daunted by the distance?? It's really up to you; if you like him enough and feel you can put the work in to make it work then go for it...otherwise you might want to seriously consider if you want to committ to this at this stage in your life...good luck :)

 i really am just thinking of writing out a generic sample of my phrases and number then and have people check them for refference..Long Distance relationships, internet dating. relations with a tacher. first cousin, second cousin. brother sister, mother, father and the family hamster, All religion everywhere, george bush in power and the american heath system simply do not work.knowing someone on line and knowing someone in reality are 2 very different things. I don't care how much you have in commen or how much in misrible love you are with each other.TYhe fact of the matter is in relaity people act in certain ways, do certain things and behave in ways you wouldn't or don't approve of.If he is willing to "make" it work then have him move closer to you. and get a job and a flat ( an apartment for your yanks out there)Not have him move in with you or vice versa.
