Long Distance Relationship ( Archived) (35)

I met a women online. She's from Russia, I'm from Canada, She's intrested in me, and also Im in her. But the distance between us is pretty far. Could we still work things out between us, or I should just move on and leave her. What would you say about this?

You have verified, through numerous contacts in numerous avenues, that she is indeed who & where she says she is?

Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. Long-time members here know I was involved with another before, from Canada, a woman of great beauty and charm. But the distance was too great, and we could not make it work. All can see now I'm involved with another, still distant, but not so much. And we've been making that work, but we're also exploring avenues to be closer.

And there's the crux of the matter. Yes, LDRs can work, but for most folk, you gotta be working together towards someone or both relocating. You're in Canada, she's in Russia. Even to meet halfway, you're both looking at airfare.

Is it really worth your emotional & financial investment, to pursue this "maybe"?

Good luck with your affair, though.

Wake up from dreamland buddy. Are you wealthy to afford the trips to Russia and for her to visit you? Have you spoken to her on Skype? Or is it all through email? All things are possible, but many russian daters are scammers.

Does she send you photo after photo? Does she avoid answering direct questions? Does she use an interpreter program to write to you?

Answer these questions honestly, then weigh up the future you see together from a realistic viewpoint. You will have your answer pretty soon.
