Ok so maybe i might have met someone amazing on this site, and i mean amazing, not weird or lying or trying to get anything from me, just lovely. we have talked on skype etc for hours, the only problem is that she lives quite a way over the atlantic. If i could, i would be there now, but is that just me being young and stupid? need some advice here please!? I always follow whats in my head/heart but a little advice is never unwelcome :)

Sounds good... the second part is what to expect. Some things do not work out exactly as envisaged... not everything is in our control... so be open and appreciative of the experience no matter how it goes, if that's possible dunno

Keep your expectations FIRMLY focused on friendship until you have the chance to meet in person - but by all means, go if you can! As long as you approach things as a casual friendship with no pre-conceived notions...you both should walk away with a happy, positive memory. Enjoy the journey, but do it wisely.

If something more comes of it while you are there??? applause applause applause

Well, love will never happen if you dont take chances....By the sounds of it, your life is in a position where you can make this happen...do it for the adventure if nothing else...everyone should travel in life. Just be smart, wait to see if you fall in love WHEN you meet her. I would rather die with regrets, than die regretting never having tried things. I wish you luck wine

Well you know what they say..No expectations, no disappointments. laugh It's so much easier to be friends than it is to negotiate your way through a long-distance relationship. This way, you get to meet a new friend, enjoy te trip of a lifetime, and maybe some day you can host her if she wants to come here.
hug
