Would you date a guy who you knew would die in a couple years?

Question

Ok this guy and I have been talking online and through email for about two weeks.  I met him through a friend so we have actually never met in person but we talk and go on webcam with each other every night.  I really really like him but we both agreed to take things slow and not rush into a relationship real fast because we both have been hurt pretty badly in the past.  Well today in one of his emails he asked, "If you knew I was going to die in a couple years would you still want a relationship with me?"  He told me not to worry because everythng is fine but he was just curious to hear what I would say.  The problem is that I don't know what to say at all!  Yes I like him a lot and he is amazing but its only been two weeks and I don't know if I love him enough to be able to handle that.  How should I respond to him?  I really like this guy and don' t want to lose him.

i'd tell him that if i really like the guy and he likes me back and feels like it could go further into love, i'd go for it...i won't miss the chance of giving him the love of his life..
you know like "walk to remember"
i'd rather experience the possibly things together...

It sounds to me like this guy is trying to get some information out of you on how you feel about him. He probably feels pretty strongly for you and wants to know 
(without asking) if you feel the same. It is somewhat immature though.. But just tell him how you feel and go from there!

if you knew you only had 60 years, what would you do? 40?  20? 10? 5? 2?

I don't think love works like that.  And doctors can be wrong without a miracle.  And miracles happen.

But ask him if it's contagious. ;)

i guess i would. i mean better love and lost than not love at all right??? it's better to meet that one special guy, even if you lose him than grow up old and cranky because you never knew what love was. so i think you should go for it. but do make sure he really is okay..that's not a normal question to ask. (though someone random like me might ask it, so don't worry too much about it) :]

If he says it was nothing then he probably just wanted to know  i'll admit that sometimes i ask random questions and if u both agreed to take it slow there is no need to worry. gd luck

think he is playin with your mental emotions, think u should be honest with him and tell him u r slightly offended with this Q, tell him things would be the same mutual friendship is all people need sometimes,
