Do you believe a long-distance relationship could lead to marriage? (153)
had the person i tried it with been half way normal then yes it could have worked. but when you go to visit them and aren't allowed to stay at there house or even visit them at their house but have to stay in a hotel 30 miles away from her house and their are so many lies on her part over the course of 2 years then yea its obvious something else is going on and things are not going to work out whether you're 10 miles apart or 1,000.

Dan_The_Man: I believe that if you find true love from afar, then distance is irrelevant as it provides even more time and allure to truly get to know the person.
that and hope springs eternal....

I think there's something quite logical about that, old chap.

I agree with you, Dan.
People today need to take more time to get to know each other.
I have seen it work for many couples who met right here on CS!
So, Yes, we all have hopes and dreams of being united with that perfect someone and LDR's can be the start of Forever moments.

Perhaps you need to clarify here.
I wouldn't invite someone I hadn't met into my home and it would be irresponsible for me to do so.
I'd have to get to know someone before I did that and make sure it was ok with my daughter. Her privacy, comfort and security is important to me.
Internet dating requires some basic safety precautions when you get to the meeting stage and to suggest otherwise is foolish, however long you've been chatting online, by phone etc.

That's not obvious to me at all.
I think I'd want to meet someone more than once before I invited them into my home and many people with younger kids want to keep their dating life seperate until they're sure its going to be a long-term permanent relationship.

Absolutely. I don't even let local men meet my son unless I think it's going somewhere. I would eventually like to have one life that involves both a man and my son...but until I am sure of the man, my son must come first.

not knowing the situation in it's entirety i guess it wouldn't be obvious to you. but it was to me.

Good advice. I could imagine that it would be harder if you have children. I also understand it can be hard to determine how sincere or truthful the other person is.
Are there any signals that anyone has found to let you know whether or not someone is truly being honest?

Hmm, tough one...some peeps are deception professionals...I encountered one very early in my stay on CS. Not too much gets by me but this particular one was a pro worthy of having his photo put beside the word deception in the dictionary

That's why I suggested you clarify.
You came across as advocating that women should be reckless and irresponsible, or accept accusations of infidelity.
Some people do feel pressured into behaving irresponsibly and its just so important for women especially to realise that a potential partner who doesn't understand the necessity for precautions is simply not worth getting to know.
It was actually you that was coming across as being "not half-way normal", or however you described you ex, in your first post.

Some people can be in a relationship, married for half their life and not realise they're being deceived. I'm not sure the internet is so very different from the "real" world.
