I have one going on with Doc (DazzleYou). We email every day. Just 'talk' to each other. Above all else, be patient, kind, & understanding.

Take it slow and build a solid foundation, and decide if it's worth one of you traveling to meet the other. Take your time. Email, IM, and phone calls (get Skype) will help a lot. The further the distance, I would think the more important it would be to make sure it's real before one moves. Do either of you (or both) have the ability for several trips to visit each other to do this?
Best wishes...just be careful, take your time (there's no need to rush into anything), and build a solid friendship first. That's more important than any chemistry...when you're old, it's most important that the person next to you is your best friend.

No, & because of what just happened, it'll most likely be longer now. We can't even talk on the phone for now. But emailing is fine for me right now. And it helps him with cognition & motor skills. When two people care about each other, they make it work in their own way.

"In my experience,the LDR that I was in never
had a chance to fully blossom,due to the distance.
Sad but true,it happens.But,that doesn't mean that
LDR doesn't work out.".

well actually they do work but only if you work on them I'm in australia an met a girl in florida on here nearly 15 months ago she's been here an I 've been over to her place there we're now engaged an I'm almost at the end of my immigration process an hope to be there in the usa by May so don't be worried about distance it just takes patience an it depends on how serious you are as well, good luck

How Fun!! Have a great time! It is so funny because, I pretty much stopped looking for love, I was just having a blast on the forums and there are so many great people here.....I think I will stay on even if things work out with me and Michael...great friends to be made.
