I was wondering if online relationships were OK,and healty. I have been dating my awesome boyfriend over the internet for almost 5 months now and we have had our bad times but we allways worked through them.I have never met him in person and I probably won't for a long time due to the distance, but we cam and see each other that way. Our relationship has most everything an 'in person' relationship has if you think about it. Everyone says its going to end bad and nothing is true but I trust him, he trusts me and I don't see what's wrong. But I could be wrong I guess I was just wondering. Thanks!

You are NOT dating if you merely talk to some one over the internet.
Dating requires actually meeting in Real Life.
After all this person on the net could be anyone at all..
This is especially true as you are a young teen !
Is this the same 18 year old you talk about here: https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/teens/if-am-13-date-18-year-old-pediofile-536171.html

HI Chick 28. I have read your note and am intrigued, I think you really enjoy this conversation with this guy and do have fun, all important and sad you are, so far apart, you don't say how far, and I imagine maybe due to work niether of you can do anything about that... well I query... for how much longer, I hope you can work something more personal and intimate out than this cyber love, seems so very lonely and I picture you just sat there in front of a monitor trying to be loved and held and have a true companion to hold. Please keep in touch.
My very best wishes to you.

There is nothing wrong with having a Online Friend that is very close to you, but you cannot expect to have a "normal relationship" over the internet. A MAJOR part of a relationship is touching. Even if it is just holding hands... it's intimate.
Also, how could you possibly trust someone you have never met and lives... wherever.
I am not placing judgment, I've had plenty of great relationships with people I never met in person.. but none of them have ever had my love.
