I am an 18 year old guy. I love a gal who is 23 and staysin Ireland, where as I stay in India. We met on a game and have been talking toeach other daily. She has told me all her problems and I have too. Sheunderstands me much much better than any person in this world. I told her that Ilove her and she says I love you too and not as much as you do to me. We stilltalk daily, sometime through skype. I asked her if she could firmly tell me ifshe would wait for me she says you need to enjoy your teenage life and not tryto live for a gal who is 1000 miles away without enjoying. Meanwhile she tellsme that she wants to meet me once in real life.

My life at the moment is messed up. Last week was a bad one I didn't sleep for5 days in row thinking about the situation and if I could get her. Any ideas asto what I should do? Should I forget her? (Won't be easy at all) or how can Iget closer to her?

You are living in a dream world, saying you love a woman you haven't even met! Unless you have the money to travel to her, I don't see any hope. It is an LDR that seldom works out over the miles.

Forget about this.

I would follow her advice to you and not get high hopes with this electronic pen pal at all. If you cannot accept this as not very hopeful, then you better slow down your contact with her, or poison the whole friendship, or worse, miss a whole lot of fun in the real world.

How old are you both?

She already gave you the answer...enjoy yourself and don't hang onto any hopes of her.

Ewwwww. I am sorry but it is time to grow up. Find a girl in your city to become involved with at some level. You cannot love someone you haven't met. You cannot expect her to love you when you haven't met. And by all means when you do meet someone in your city, take it slowly.

"I didn't sleep for 5 days in row thinking about the situation and if I could get her." That is just creepy sounding (and physically not possible). She should cyberlistically run away fast.

You are 18 she is a 23 year old woman. She has told you to enjoy your teen years and don't get hung up on her.
Take her advice. Break off the contact.
