Someone i know needs help to figure out what to do?

Well He's 22 and lives in Florida and he really likes a girl he met online thats 18 from Ohio and they both go to colleges in their states. Well he wants to go meet her but she lives with her parents and they are so against online dating/meeting and she lives with them and doesnt want to lie or disrespect them but she really likes him and he really likes her. Any ideas that he can do to try to show her mom he's ok? I told him to show her pics and maybe talk to her through email so she gets to know him better. OR her mom go with to meet him. But they were dating online and she broke up with him cause her mom basically and he does a lot for her he's sent her money to pay for lunches at college,etc.. and even sends her flowers. He also wants to know how he can convince her to give him another chance and just to basically do what she feels right. Shouldn't her mom just be happy that shes happy? Any advice cause he wants to go and meet her but she just says no cause her mom

I met a girl online from across the country. We talked for a couple weeks, and she wanted to come see me. Her mom was against it. but what I did was, I sent her every bit of information about me as I could..My driver's license number, ssn, even my library card number...She let her come. now we are married and have 2 kids. :)
Reply:In my opinion, I think long distance relationships, especially from online, will never work out in the long run. If you just want some love in your life for now, it's okay. But, if you are looking foward to having a happy relationship, it might not work as well as you think it would. Money, time, and trust issues become a problem in these long distance relationships. I think relationships work better when two people get to see each other often because when you are in love, you would want to be with that person badly and share your affection with him. Communication is important, but only talking won't complete the relationship, without the physical aspect.



I met my current bf online, but we live pretty close to each other. But, even if we did live close to each other, we don't see each other often, usually only about once a week. I miss him a lot and it hurts sometimes when I couldn't see him. Though, I do talk to him everyday.
Reply:my opinion on online dating/meeting is that it is a bad idea. i think if someone meets someone else online, it should stay that way unless you are connected to a person that knows the online person well, or if the two have met before previously.



my cousin "dated" a guy from out of state. he seemed like a pretty nice guy, and i think he was, but they ended up never actually meeting and they went off on their own. they still keep in contact but it gets pretty hard at times for her because he was giving her all this talk about "working it out if you want it bad enough", he dumped her a few months later.



i think long distance relationships are just a way to feel accepted by someone, anyone, even when they have never really met the person. it usually is just a temporary thing until someone loses intersest or backs out, having never met the person.



things are alot easier to do long distance because people are writing things to each other, or talking on the phone, but they don't always know what each other's personality is like face to face if they have only talked to them online. people might find that they don't even like the person in person and they have thus wasted time and/or money trying to meet this person.



mothers are very protective of their children. seeing a picture of someone, or recieving gifts, or talking on the phone hardly count as knowing a person from a mother's perspecive. even a face to face meeting can be suspicious because it is easy to say someone is one person and end up to be someone completely different. it can be pretty dangerous at times if someone meets a basically random person online who is not friendly, no matter how friendly or attractive they appear to be.
