Red face He's a single 26 y/o single father in Maine...I'm in Florida :/

I never noticed this guy before
I mean
He had added me a few months back onto his list
We're both interested in the Pitbull society
He's a breeder and kennel owner
But that's besides the point
Single, 26, father, cute....yet
We've never met
We've talked on the phone twice
(BTW I'm 20 [21 in May])
Both times made my heart beat more times than I can even imagine
How is it possible to be so attracted to someone
That isn't even in front of you?
We've jokingly spoken about me going out to see him
Or even him coming out here...
But
Would things change?
Would I still be attracted to him?
Will he still be attracted to me?
I dunno
It just doesn't make sense to really like someone who's so far.
What do you think?
If we continue talking
Should we meet?
Or just see it as something that's not a huge deal
I am picky
And the fact that he's really caught my attention
AND being in Maine
Is something different for me
If he wanted to start something up
Should I say yes
Or just pass it on?
Please comment
Thank you

Sounds like you're in quite a similar situation to me, except with me we're on different sides of the Atlantic. Personally I think that the way you have met is one of the truest and purest forms of attraction. You have to rely on conversation and the sound of each others voices to perpetuate the relationship.

You know, therefore, that you already have enough in common mentally to want to continue talking. You've already asked yourself the billion dollar questions...

...and unfortunately you have no way of knowing until you meet. There are also compatibility issues that you will need to address.

In my case we played everything down (probably where you are right now). I think it's important to not get carried away too soon. If you still both feel the same way in a couple more months, then why not make plans to meet. If you do, though, always remember that the chances of it working out for you are slim. As such do everything you can to not place too much false hope in your relationship.

I hope it all works out for you though.
