is it ok to date my online bestfriend?

You could try, but be warned that you are in for a difficult relationship. It is no rumor that long distance relations usually don't work out and its simply because you don't get to see eachother much. I would also warn you to make sure you know for sure who the person is, because online relations are notorious for being dangerous. If you feel that you are up for the challenge though, then I say you should go ahead and hook up, and see what happens. Just make sure you have your parents with you when you first meet him in real life, just to be safe.

The general answer is yes. However, if it doesn't work out, then more than likely you will lose the friendship too. You have to decide if it is worth it or not to you to take that chance.

I am not sure, but you seem young...teens maybe? I think this would make a LD relationship very difficult for more than just friends. As school goes on for each of you there will be dances, parties, movies, etc that each of you will want a date for and since you live so far apart, it can't be you for him or he for you...so it will put stress on the situation.

Whatever you decide I would take it slow and not push yourself or him to put more into the relationship than either of you can warrant based on the situation. Maybe keeping it friends for now until you have the resources to meet might be a good idea?

I married my online boyfriend. We have been married for over 4 years now. So you know what my answer will be. lol

3 years to meet each other? wow! that is an enormously long time. Is there the possibility of meeting sooner?

I take it that you are teenagers and are a bit limited for resources (car, money etc)? Committing to an online relationship can be difficult. But if your heart is pulling you in his direction then go for it. At least you can't get pregnant from an online relationship. (yeah I know its a corny joke) :)

LOL There's no such thing as an "online boyfriend". And how do you know you know EVERYTHING about each other? How can your mom like him if you've never met and don't even plan to meet for three more years? By the way, how old are you two?

My advice is to keep chatting with him if you want to, but don't put your "real life" on hold.

if your building a relationship which you have already maybe its time for another step. But to hold out for someone that you cannot be next to for 3 years thats crazy. tell him how you feel and that you will be together. its not fair to none of you to have a relationship with a computer when there are other people out there. how would dating him online be any more differant than what u are doing now?

You can't "date" if you live states apart. Keep up your online friendship if you want, and some day if you two meet and want to pursue romance then go for it...I sure wouldn't pass up any real life opportunities over a guy I've never looked at eye-to-eye before (no matter how nice he seems to be).

ok, i will certainly say, i be conscious of the place you're coming from. I met this guy on line, and we'd chat in basic terms approximately every day for just about 2 years. We continuously suggested candy issues to a minimum of one yet another and chum yet another.. properly atleast as much as you are able to love somebody you have not met. yet I actual have called him, and we've the two seen photos of one yet another, so i think that makes it greater good. Anyhowww... in case you may desire to maintain this lie up, it incredibly is kinda a small lie, yet nevertheless a lie, then i don't think of this element could have a destiny, and you do not additionally be conscious of what he appears like. could not you upload him on facebook or something?? yet from adventure, i'm relationship somebody i in my view met now, and inspite of the incontrovertible fact that it broke my heart to interrupt the internet-guy's heart, i'm greater constructive off this form. you are able to stay acquaintances, yet a dating won't artwork till you meet this guy, and that i form of could suggestion you to not do this although.. i be conscious of that is confusing, i in my view do. I cried and cried many nights yet i think so plenty greater happier now, and it is actual certainty, the place i be conscious of what my boyfriend appears like while he smiles.. yet sturdy success, be sturdy! i be conscious of you're able to do it.. because of the fact I did! =)

Of course...

and as for that saying, some long distance relationships DO work out! :)

well it would work if you guys saw eachother every once in a while. but not for another three years? ouch.

but maybe try it out for like a month and see how it is working.

yes if you're serious and committed to having a relationship then yes. Long distance relationships can work if you are committed to it.
