writes:I'll try and condense what could be a remarkably long essay type question into a simple straightforward well question. Roughly about 2 years ago I started speaking to a man online. Time flew by, my feelinigs grew for him, his feelings grew for me... unfortunately the fact that I live in the UK and he lives in the US became more obvious. You know? You get to the stage where you are aware of the fact you care and love this person immensely but you ask yourself it it worth it? Loving someone you can't possibly have in the meantime? Financial difficulties is merely the barrier which keeps us from meeting. It just hurts me soo much as we are both prepared to take it to the next step (I can safely say I'm ready to do that) but I feel it won't be possible to do so in the next year or so. Any thoughts on the matter? Reply to this Question

 Hi,I just wanted to tell you that I understand exactly where you are coming from... I am in an identical situation myself!I wish I had an answer for you to let you know how to cope with this situation but unfortunately I don't have one all I can do is sympathise and let you know that someone else feels the way you do.

He only lives 3,000 miles away (that's the first time ever I've used the word "only" in that sentence. Fortunately, he has a little bit of money and bought me a airline ticket last June. And in Sept he came to visit me. He is planning another trip here in a month or so.
Our problem is where our final destination will be. I want him to move here. He wants me to move there. There are alot of complications to overcome before we can be together. Because we are older and health insurance is so important, it becomes a big factor.
Anyway, I know the frustration of wanting to be together NOW, and not being able to. I also believe that true love can survive. All I can suggest is start saving as much money as possible and keep shopping for discount airfare. I heard they are going down soon. I hope it's true!
I wish you luck and happiness!
