jono7: i think the bigger issue, is about trust. if trust was in place, i don't think the issue of window shopping would be there, football game or no....
I agree with this jono but I also think the biggest thing with trying to do things long distance and online is that some people take online relationships seriously while others tend to view an online relationship with little or no intention for it to become real life (beyond maybe an occasional meet up)
so someone like the OPs freind is probably just looking for someone closer for a RL relationship. I would not assume that a long distance male freindship on here was intended to become a real life partnership myself - maybe that's why I can kinda see both sides of it.
I got really upset with a guy once about this same issue, in hindsight - he had many male & females friends online - I don;t think he intended for ANY of us to be part of his life IRL - hard lesson learned - but now I tend to see things his way, at this point anyway.
Long distance always is problem for relationship. But I thought you should tell with him about your feeling and if he don't care about that, so let him go.
Me and my husband still on dating site just only for discuss some topic and share something.
If he care about your feeling and explain with you everything, its mean he respect and love you.
Try for talking, after that you will know trust or don't trust...
katrina_maex0x: so you met a guy online and decided to continue your relationship with him and you've been going on for 2 months. since you and him are on a long distance relationship, he emails, texts and skype you everyday. while you're thousand miles away from him, curiosity strikes and you went back to the dating site where u met and found out that he's been logging on to it everyday. even if he told you he's not on search, do you think your guy is doing something behind your back? the fact that while you are both skyping, he's still online on the dating site and if u ask him why he's on it he just say he has no idea about it...

should u believe him or not?
would you still trust your guy?
If I felt couldn't trust someone then I wouldn't wish to be in a relationship with them.
