I need a little relationship advice

[iron bluff]

-> is online relationship is even worth having? i see my friends all it did was had more mental strain and anyway no one can make committed like leaving the country and not mentioning having so much to do and staying connected online is just huge chore.. also yeh loyalty in online its so suspicious and i am so confused

[heady holly]

Well I have seen some people marrying after online relationship but they were of same country but still different Cities and provinces. But relationships aren't my specialty. So idk

I see it as having the struggles with distance on top of the typical relationship struggles. The longer the distance, the harder it becomes (language barrier, seeing each other etc...).
That of course doesn't mean there aren't people worth all that, but it's something to keep in mind.

No it’s not really worth having; it’s just anxiety-inducing especially if you have trust issues, and it’s draining when you are forced to call them rather than being able to see them in person - it’s not a very human interaction imo

But if you really love someone, love them and don’t hold that back. Not all are the same in total fairness and some do work out, but be prepared for the sacrifices that requires

I think if only both have the same wants and fire level without overly dimming the other flames... so it can always support each other warmth with communication. Like any other, as long as two of these people show progress, it can get intimate

Text to call, finally video call. To connect meaningfully one must do activity together, so one must simulate this by sending video's and whatnot.

Game can help, but not as much as one would hyped it to be. From personal experience, i seen more happen on studying together, asking opinion, and eating together.

To summarise: Yes it can work with communication not afraid getting intimate and progress, also a lot of creativity to include one life, thing can thrive

But be mindful, there are stress and insecurity caused by distance from time to time, its normal. Both need to be able to adjust and reassure if decidedly it worth keeping for

[iron bluff]

how do i keep the stress doesn't affect the progress of personal life and interfere with personal life

[thorny zephyr]

tbh its only worth it when both of you are sure of it. When you both are ready to face any difficult situation and at the end meet each other. there are many problems in online relationship too. time issues, no physical presence. it gets menatally draining at times but you both need to solve them and become stronger. also dont invest your whole self in the relationship. make sure you both have individual lives of your own too

It honestly just depends on you. If you're not into it then it's maybe just not your thing. Just cuz your friends like online relationships, it doesn't mean you have to be like them

Like any other relationship– online relationships also requires commitment, trust, respect, boundaries, and open communication. If you believe that you can do this for an online setting then you can do it

Calling with your partner and doing activities together online is possible. Not 24/7 to the point you can't have time with your friends or yourself though. However, if these things aren't fulfilling for you then maybe it's just not your thing

At the end of the day, it works for others but it's not everybody's cup of tea
