So, I like this guy, who likes me too. He's from Hawaii. We talk on keychat, (google plus), and he's so sweet.
I fell asleep to him singing. He sent me a recording and I listened to him sing a Hawaiian song till I fell asleep.
He's teaching me Hawaiian.
I need a song to dedicate to him. He dedicated Butter Flies by a Hawaiian band.
He made me a piano song, and I made him one too. He's blind too.
I'd say you're doing it right. Enjoy.
Smile.
I just learned a Hawaiian song on piano.

It's very easy and the lyrics are annoying when they're stuck in your head.
you messed up your link for youtube.
please try again
guess it does work after all.
didn't start with the usual so figured it wouldn't.
Because youtube treats my machine as a mobile device.
you're doing it right.
If this is a long-distance relationship, do you have plans to meet at some point in the future? It's so important to have this goal in mind to see if this will truly work for both of you, and important to have that physical contact if online communication doesn't feel like enough.
Yes, it really is. Online contact ends up losing its novelty, and you need and want something more. This will sound crude, but online contact is like a really weak version of weed, or something, and eventually, it fizzles out, and you feel empty no matter how much of it you get a day. It leads to wanting phone calls, physical contact, and much much more thañ what you have. It takes a lot of faith to hang on.
As someone who's been in an online relationship for three and a half years now, I will say this much. It isn't for everyone, and it's difficult if you do like the physical aspects of a relationship. However, it's probably not as ugly as people suspect, and as far as faith...I'm not so sure about that. I think it does come down to your end goal, however vague. One of the big reasons my relationship is worth it is because I know one day the long-distance aspect will be a memory, and I'll be living with my partner. If I knew it was going to be long-distance forever, I'm not sure if I'd be okay with that.
That said, I would continue getting to know this guy, see what develops. Don't force anything, for heaven's sake. Let it come, or let it go if it moves that way. First loves rarely last, but that isn't to say they're guaranteed to be doomed either.
I don't think these are bad, but I wonder why they go on so long?
To me an online relationship is a good friend, until that relationship turns in to a face to face, meeting at some point.
Once you meet face to face, and you are adults, I can't understand why the waiting.
No matter what your obsticals are, you are going to have to fix them, or you won't ever have a complete relationship.
If you can't fix them, or won't, what good is the relationship, unless it is for good company or friends?
Soon as you meet someone local that gives you the same feelings as the person afar, you are going to want to change.
Is your afar person not worth making some changes to be together?
My question is, is it so bad to say, lets live together and live as we must live, so we can be together?
For me, I'd find it difficult to deal with an online relationship, simply because I'd want the person there. It could be done - I can certainly fall in love with somebody online - but sustaining it's a different thing. I also wouldn't want to put the other person through my insecurities I have when talking to people online, but there you go.
Yeah, having an online relationship for 3.5 years, and you're both adults who could have seen each other sooner? That is awesome that you've made it work for so long, but I personally couldn't do that. I'll get so bored, and will need the physical to keep the feelings alive.
