writes: Three months ago I went to visit a friend in a different state. He introduced me to his friend and we immediately hit it off. I didn't expect much to become of it but we still talk (through text) several times a week. He has told me he is interested in me, and I am very interested in him. I know there is a lot of potential here but I do not want to get my hopes up. I also understand that because we are so far apart, I have to be more patient. I am even open to moving there in a few months because it was my original plan to do so.We will both be in near by cities in a week and have planned to meet up. I am not sure if I should being any of this up or just see where it goes. Should I just be myself and let us have a good time, and then when he goes home he can reflect upon this? I also want to see if he makes an effort to come out here and see me in the future. Also, how many more months should I wait before giving up on all this all together?

imissyourkisses is verified as being by the original poster of the questionThanks everyone for your suggestions and advice :) We did end up meeting for a few hours but we weren't alone. We ended up kissing and he texted me later saying I was just as great as he remembered. We just hung out, we didn't talk about relationships or dating or anything like that. Unfortunatly I have not heard from him since we went back to our home states. Oh well, thanks for your time anyways!

If you know you are moving just stay in touch for now until you do, your both interested why not be patient and give it a shot. You can even talk to him about this yourself you know, ask him if he is interested enough to wait, he knows your interested anyway. If your not moving and doesnt make and effort, youll feel when you have had enough, we cant put time on this.

The first thing to realise is that long distance relationships are never easy and take quite a lot of work and commitment on both sides. If you're both really into each other and think you can make it work, why not give it a go.The key is, you should be yourself and let whatever happens blossom naturally.You said that you may be moving near him anyway in a few months, that doesn't usually happen in most long distance relationships, so you have quite an interesting situation. The one thing I would definitely advise though is to make the best decisions for you, only make the move if you are doing it for yourself and the move is in your best interests. Certainly at this stage, don't factor him into any decision you make on moving. As I said, let it flow naturally and see how it goes.I hope things turn out good for you :).
