I don't know you so I can't tell you what to do. I can tell you what I would do though. Realize that this isn't possible and long distance relationships are interactive video games for all intents and purposes. The person that he shows online and through messages is not the person he is in real life. It's a persona. I would keep the guy as an online friend and enjoy spending time with him in my spare time but nothing more. Who knows what could happen in the distant future but I would realize that wanting to love and be loved in a proper relationship should come after you are financially stable and skilled. Otherwise you are wasting your time with half hearted people that have nothing to really contribute to a future.


I also have an anxiety disorder. I repeat things like "I want to die" constantly in my head when I make mistakes or think about them. I then fixate on these mistakes I've made, obsessively going over why I messed up and hating myself for months at a time. So I feel like I know how you might feel. Although, anxiety issues aside, you're in love with a person that doesn't really exist and I wouldn't waste my time on that. Have self respect and don't let your anxiety rule your actions and time.

Kind of hard to be nothing more than friends when he also acts as my dom. Not full time dom, we only talk a few times a week, and it isn't always sexual, but our relationship has been that way pretty much since it began years ago. At first it was just fun and exciting, but I think I fell in love with him slowly. I only really acknowledged it recently when I started getting more attention from the opposite sex. It feels good to realize it. I don't want somebody else, I only want him.

But yeah, I know that it's not possible. I just don't know how to extract myself from these feelings. This has honestly been my only relationship with a man that wasn't completely platonic. I want to hold on to it.

just detach and cut off. dehumanize. it's how i got over my ex

How far away do you live from one another? Like, he lives in Canada and you live in Texas or you live in Russia and he lives in Colorado?

Why do you care?

To me it sounds like compulsive thoughts about love are much better. Why would you try to stop it?

I live in the PNW, he lives in New England.

Because I'm 25, have no other relationship experience, and crave companionship. If I were younger I'd just let it happen and eventually fizzle out, but my quarter life crisis is telling me I should be on the market looking for a real boyfriend while I've still got my looks.

Just tell him and see how he reacts. If he shuts you down then you have your answer. It's better than wasting more time having false hope.

Wat. You live in the same country? Just go travel somewhere that the two of you can meet up. Cool music festival on the east coast? Boom. Going to Vegas? Done. Meeting someone in the same country shouldn't be that hard. If you hit it off, keep having these meetups and maybe it'll turn into something.
