Vic ~ It works for some people. But you have to establish some type of relationship before you ever meet. Selfbiased and I met here but we talked for almost 6 months online and on the phone before we ever met. We had distances but they can be over come if you care for the person. We will be three years in April.

If you have trust issues, you might wanna forgo it sa ewll, as so many such relationships see one or both parties cheating on each other. Sh'it happens...

very small rocks? possibly, but the final answer would be "cold duck" or something like that

trust....yeah, i'm not even really thinking about that.
by the way, i have experience w/ distance relationships, pre internet (for me - i was a late comer to this)
met my ex in costa rica, fell head over heels in luv, caught in that "happily ever after - this is the solution to all my problems - she's perfect" idiocy. i had to return to states to fulfill a contract to teach (1st real job), and a year and a half later and $7000+ in phone bills, airline tickets and stamps found myself teaching in costa rica, married and catholic. in that year and a half, by the way, i was 100% faithful to her, not even putting myself in tempting situations. when i was finally with her, i blabbed about my past too much (having done questionable things    in my wild college days) and she got jealous of my past, did not believe i had been faithful, and from then on, despite heroic effort, the marriage proceeded to suck more every year until it became unbearable. i ain't perfect, see a lot of stupid things i did, said, but was always faithful, put her through school while working a job i hated, on the understanding that when she got out i could have some breathing room to change careers, and then she left to go live with her gay friends in florida. *****. sorry.
now i'm a buddhist, single, trying to get my life together and think i'm doing a good job of it. know what i want to do for the first time in my life, and how to go about doing it. so why am i falling in love with a distant mexican woman? masochistic pattern? desire to relive a part of my life i admit i partially scewed up and do it right? just an idiot? perhaps.
but then i've learned a thing or two, and a lot about human nature and this woman actually shares many interests with me. unlike my ex, is a fascinating conversationalist with interests in more than just dancing, buying clothes and critisizing others. i feel a truly kindred spirit, though its too early to really know. i see something in her eyes....you know?
don't mean to compare her w/ ex, but kind of hard not too - human thought functions largely on comparisons and this is especially unavoidable. think i would be a real certifiable fool not too. some took exception to my saying earlier that i had prospects near me, but seriously folks, i'm not getting any younger and based on my experience i think i would be a fool not to consider options, esp. considering the tenuous nature of my current conundrum.
crap, meant to close this thread today, but i think i need some more on line therapy - just writing this out and recieving feedback from strangers feels great. i'm trying to get back in grad school - psychology. maybe an online shrink service would be cool one day...hmmm....
anyway, i'll leave this open, seems to be entertaining to some, at least, maybe making some friends by vivisecting my soul this way - maybe just vivisecting my soul

Why should he? They're all just as meaningless as the next religion.

"They're all just as meaningless as the next religion."
Apparently, he has found meaning in at least two of these religions.
You are not a useful gauge of his religious beliefs!

Yes I do. Don't let the Dalai Lama fool you. Buddism has been just as much an excuse for murder, meyhem, and oppression as the next religion.

Well, finally got through to G. (the woman formerly known as "on line mexican girl") - yahoo messenger probs mexican and us isp probs, pain in the a$$. Had not heard from her in almost 2 days, started to think it was over. got a hell of a lot sadder than i thought i would. finally i got the message log current, and - pow - bunch of messages. good ones. couldn't resist and called her (  phone bill). man, i am crazy.
but thats ok. i'm getting a web cam tomorrow, and mike. yep, 'sokay.
