ORIGINAL: newleafintx Thank you , sir. I am glad I found this place. New I'm glad you found this place too, New. Please do relax and stay a while and keep asking for advice and continue to learn the lessons of this first experience. I speak from experience, I've been there before, as have many (if not all) of us on here. We were all new, eager, enthusiastic to dive in, and most of us have met someone online that we fell for before even meeting, only to have it turn out lukewarm or worse. Everyone who has said this is absolutely correct: there is someone out there for you who is legitimate, caring, and will give you what you need - but you won't know this person without putting in some real time towards finding him and building a relationship with him. Unless there's a very good reason, meeting in real life after no more than several weeks of chatting usually turns out best (even if you don't end up liking the guy you haven't spent months building a fantasy about him.) Even better is meeting someone through the local community who can be vouched for by others. My advice to new people is to sit back and observe, or maybe even play, for your first 6 months without entering into a formal relationship. As you've seen, letting someone have such a degree of control over you so quickly can lead to less-than-desirable results. Maybe this thread is over now, I'm slowly making my way to the end of it, but I wish you the best of luck and hope we'll see you around in the future.
