Omg WOW, really, what were the odds of that?!

There's a point where I agree with TheRange, and I know what I'm talking about as I have been in quite a few online relationships myself, because my love-shyness is at the level it is.

People who got into online relationships with me almost always came from very small, very remote towns. That's telling. If their local dating pool was ANY bigger they wouldn't have felt the need to be in online relatonships. Only because they lived in an extremely low local population base was I able to be on their radar online.

I don't know what size of town your girlfriend is from, but it's not for us to know due to confidentiality.

Also, with you being so happy and elated and, if I can say so, obsessed with this relationship, how do you know she is feeling equally the same way?

Perhaps he isn't looking for anything, but just wants to share his happiness? Graduation ceremonies would be pretty sad occasions if that was considered as attention-seeking.

I agree that what TheRange has said has some merit, i'm not totally disregarding his advice out-of-hand, i'm just not letting it get me too down is all. He suggested that it might not be a real girl, so i followed up on that for example and verified that she is who she says she is. So if anything i can thank him for bringing that possibility to my attention. I agree online relationships can be a bit iffy, but i'm working towards making it a real-life one. It may take a little time and some travel expenses, but it would be really rewarding i think if i can pull it off . I'm under no illusions however that it will definitely work out, but i'm keeping hopeful about it.

& i'm not sure if she feels exactly the same way. Although i'm not sure anyone, even those together years would know exactly to what extent their significant other returns their feelings seeing as no one's psychic, but she's accepting of me & y condition as i am of her & hers, & she's expressed how she's felt for me countless times both before & since i've asked her out in increasingly stronger ways as we've gotten to know each other even more over the time. She's also posted an entire paragraph openly on her myspace profile page on the topic, i'm #1 on her friends list on there, & we text several hours a day & she's told me countless intimate things about her which suggests a pretty healthy level of trust. & that's pretty convincing as far as i'm concerned .

Oh, and for the record, she's from a relatively smaller town.
when i say i'm not giving out her info, i just mean specifics really.
Like i might post up more photos, but some of hers have her name digitally added, so i'm careful about what i add. & even the photo i did put up, i uploaded to my photobucket account first and then from there to here so no one could use the photo's URL address to track back to her myspace account.
She's had a problem with stalkers before... one of them her ex in fact, & i just didn't want to give out anything too telling, ya know?

Haha, speaking of graduation ceremonies i didn't even attend mine.
I failed senior english because that dumb culminating project requirement, and because of that was exactly one half-credit short of graduation requirements and had to make it up in summer school. So i ended up getting my diploma slightly late .

On the light side the teacher teaching it was my favorite one from high school, and i had alot of fun with it . It was really lax, & while the culminating project was really daunting, i managed to scrape by it & was oh so happy to be free of the education system =D.

& yeah, was just trying to share the happiness.
Thanks Crinkly!

I have a question. Can you please tell me your secret?

Two big quote pyramids in one topic, over someone who found himself an "internet girlfriend", Hah!

it's a fact stated in a lot of shift happens videos that 8 out of 10 of married couples met first online. I'm sure it would be a pretty sucky relationship if they just dated online for the remainder of it or the rest of their lives, so maybe if they met up it won't be an online relationship anymore. If it worked, would that make it less of a joke? Maybe he really is compatible with this person but they just happened to meet online first. I think you just meant your post an insult. You're not going to start acting like the Loner Mutant, are you? Are you here just to go around making agitating posts? Do you even have AS?...

I think you're just in this thread to fool around...but I can't make you leave, so I'm just going to say that you're kind of entertaining. and not in the way you want to be...I'm warning you! LOL.....

Who is Spike! Your locator says "Not at Spike's house". Does that mean you really are at Spike's house? Do you fool around with an old guy named Spike? I mean, you can if you want, it's not up to me...you can do whatever you like. It's just that I had no idea Spike was an old guy. It's less likely that the guy you fool around with would be an old man, ya know? Anywho, nvm...it's okay.

Didn't he mention that the girl also had trouble with relationships? You also bought up that the guy wasn't as badlooking as "most guys" here...so you basically just called most of the guys on here bad-looking, andddd...I think he said something about trouble with finding a girlfriend in real life, so wouldn't you think maybe her physical appearance isn't enough to make it easy for her? And you might wanna watch who you sass off to. Alex is the developer you know. Just saying. So you don't get suspended (is that possible?) or get on the wrong person's bad side. I don't think this time is a time you have to worry about though because Alex doesn't seem agitated or anything by what you said.

Hmm..maybe this thread should be locked. It's causing too much "controversy". lol. The creator of the thread got to say what he wanted, so i think it'd be okay now. It's causing too much debate really..(no offense to creator, It's not your fault). I really hope a debate about whether or not it is the creator's fault isnt started either, because I had a feeling that would start up. Anyway if it does I won't stick around long for the debate. lol

Range it was one thing when you told Toad of Steel that he shouldn't have such an negative view on relationships and his luck in not finding a girl.
But now you're just coming of as real dark, and I'm not going to lie you might be right and you might be wrong.
You don't know for sure though but your opinion is rock solid and cynical.
I thought your comments were constructive criticism but it looks like you're more of a trigger happy cowboy with negative opinions.

If the girl is real and he ends up having the best time ever then universal joke on you, if not and you turn out to be right then shame...

That's all.

(I need to confess I have the same cynical and critical thinking pattern as you display but I don't go around shooting my mouth off about these things because I do have a positive core and anything can happen, and I do hope it's all real.)

Spike's house is an inside joke with another poster on here about the OP.

Also, you've been on thie site for a month, and you're trying to get the moderator's attention? Like it or not, I have the right to express my opinion, just like Toad has the right to whine, and Sean has the right to brag about his computer relationship.

It's one thing to be cynical about yourself (which is what I do)... you're not hurting anyone else that way. It's a whole different story to deliberately go after other people the way you do though.

For a while there I was thinking that your remarks about me were legitimate... but now I see you're just a bully that enjoys making other people feel like s**t. I'm perfectly capable of doing that to myself, as you can see... I don't need your help in that endeavor.

Have you got a sign pic from this girl yet?

Also, I need to see her profile even if I don't have permission. I want to do some re-search.

Congrats on the relationship. Are you sure its ok with her to post her picture on WP?
