Dear Cupid,

I am currently in a long-distance relationship. He lives in Boston. I live in California. We met online in a chatroom. We have known each other and have been talking for the past three years, but have only dated for the past 2 years. I faked my identity the first time we met in that chat-room. I don't know why I did this. I used to pretend I was someone else-different name, age, appearance, personality and I would go into these chatrooms meeting people. I never took it seriously..I guess I was just bored. But one day, I was 16 at the time(19 now).. I met a boy and we started talking and we had a lot of chemistry. We were alike in so many ways but also different. We made each other laugh and I felt happy and I think he did too.

When he found out I was fake, he didnt speak to me for 6 weeks. But he came back to me and we have been in a LDR ever since then. I've seen him 3 times. His family loves me. My family loves him. I love him and I know he does too. We have fights just like any other couple. We have good days and bad days. Sometimes, I feel that we have more bad days than good ones because we're so far apart.

I've met so many people this year and I'm jealous of my friends because they have someone they can see every day. Sometimes, when I meet a guy, I wonder what it would be like to date him and I wonder what it would be like to have a nearby relationship. This is my second relationship..my first one was also long-distance. Am I doing the right thing? Should I be experiencing life and dating? I know no one can answer that besides myself. But I just want some insight on my relationship. Thanks.

Sincerley,

Confused

danibodemann agony auntI completely understand what you both are saying. However, I feel like I could definitely be with this guy for a while. I see us living a very good life in a couple of years-or however long it takes to be close to one another. Is that worth waiting 2 years?

Honestly, you should look more into someone closer to you, someone you can see everyday and get to know properly as the two of you live life "together". You have met this Boston guy, that's good, but only three times. You have not yet experienced a relationship like those of our friends. You're in an age in which you should LIVE LIFE!!! Trust me, once you find a guy near to you, your feelings for your long distance boyfriend will start to fade. You will love the experience of having a guy you can cuddle with everyday. Good luck
