GUYS | DEAR CAROL

Is my online relationship a good idea?


 
I have an online boyfriend. He is sweet, nice, funny and loves me. I know why people worry, but I’ve heard his voice and seen him when we video-chat. I love him, but how do I explain this to my family and friends?
 

Dear Online Girlfriend,

Online relationships worry people for good reasons. After all, many cyber guys are creeps and criminals. Emotional safety is also an issue. You and this boy have no even held hands, but you say you love each other. Even though you like his emails, you have no idea how he treats his sibs or chooses his friends or acts in school. Plus, you’ll feel hurt if your virtual crush logs off to hang with someone else. Save the L-word for a real-time relationship.

Hey girly! You should take this as a compliment, that so many guys like you! To avoid any confusion, though, maybe avoid flirting with them. Keep a safe distance and make it clear that you're just friends with them.

No DONT do it!

I would never have an online relationship but I know people who have online bfs they have never met, personally I cant see how they do that. If I was dating a guy and he moved away then I could do it but you dont even know if these online bfs have other gfs.

I am not judging because I know how easy it is to start to flirt online and feel you are close but I wouldnt do it. And then when you start exchanging pictures it can get very weird so I wouldnt do that either.

I think of some of the things my friends are telling me they are doing with guys online and my mom would punish me forever if she knew I was doing that to.

MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD
i like one of my old guy friends from florida(i used to live there before i moved 2 years ago). and we talk on facebook and stuff and do you think it would be ok to have a relationship with him?? and it wouldnt just be bound to end with us not being friends anymore? im not sure what to do because im pretty sure i like him(even before i moved) and hes like a brother to me because weve known each other for so long. if it would be alright to be in a relationship, how would i kind of hint that to him? im pretty sure he doesnt know i like him...and i really like him! please help me!!! i just dont know what to do!!!!!




Having a long distance relationship, as well as what will happen if it ends, is something only you and he can decide. Ask him how he feels about you, as a start and take things from there Smile

i dont do the whole online relationship thing. if someone says something creepy or nasty ill block you unfriend you all that. most of those people end up to be 40 year old creepers who still live w/ their moms
