A female age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Hi,

I met a guy online on a chat site, we have been chatting for ages on both msn and skype. I really like him and he's told me he likes me too. He calls me baby, has nicknames for me, is sympaethic when i've had a bad day, pops on just to say hi and see if i'm ok and makes me laugh. With that he's different from all the other guys i've chatted to or dated before, he isin't just interested in trying to get me into bed and has told me he prefers love to one night stands or casual relationships. The problem lies in that we live about 2hrs drive away from eachother and as a student until I finish uni early next year at times I won't be able to see him maybe for a few weeks at a time. I''m willing to try a long distance relationship and he has hinted at comming down my way so we can meet up. I'd really like peoples advice on whether they think he is really interested and ready for a relationship and if it could work what with the distance between us.

I have been talking to a guy online for a few months now. We have had a lot of very naughty converstions along with some very normal one's have sent each other pics too. He calls me hun and baby and always signs his text with a x he has told me he wants to meet up. But my main problems is his online profile is still active and although still has no friends noticed today that he had removed a picture that had his old dog on and put a recent one up with his new dog. Should I not worry about this or should I. I am confused I really like him. Last time I mentioned his profile he said he didn't realise he need my permission and we had a row but then we made up and continued to talk but I have been hurt by my last 2 long term partners and don't want to fall for him to get hurt help.

hey. before i give you my advice, beware some guys are assholes. Not all of them but some.

if you think you can make this relationship work, go for it definitly. but if you think that it might be to much, or that it will be to hard, dont try it, you will end up with a broken heart. There is a saying "it is better to love and have lost, than to never have loved at all".

Whatever you choose, remember love is two why. you have to give to recieve, and it seems like you will have to give a LOT for this to work.

good luck in whatever you choose!

bad romaance  agony auntHe sounds interested from what you have stated here. I personally don't like the idea of long distant relationships but if you think it could work, it would require a lot of work and effort on both sides. Well good luck on what you decide.

busy04 agony auntYou say you've been talking to him for "ages", but exactly how long is that? That's a piece of information that we would need to know.

Long distance is a hard thing to do. I know that because I've been in one for the past 6 years (now engaged:). It takes TRUE COMMITMENT, patience, trust & faith in your partner, what you have together & what you can build with one another. It takes more than be being called "baby", and being told that he prefers "love" to know if he's really true, anyone can SAY those things. Which brings me back to my above statement, you need to tell us how long you've been chatting with him :)

I believe that you could make it, you're only 2 hours away which is not much compared to many other LDR's. But my advice to you is, make sure that YOU are ready for it. Take your time, evaluate YOURSELF with your priorities first and figure out whether you're able to deal with it (LDR). LDR's can be truly fulfilling & loving, but they require much work, just as much as a non-LDR, maybe even more. Make sure that both you & him are ready to put in all the work that goes into it :)

Good luck Sweetheart!
