Am I really this happy, or just kidding myself?

Hi there everyone! I am a huge romantic..and it’s almost one of the first things I tell everyone I meet ha. I kept meeting guys online but they would just want to flirt and then nothing else. I finally found someone..we shall call him..Jacob. He lives about an hour away. Jacob and I share a lot of common interests. WE both love God and are working on the relationships with Him. WE both are huge romantics and like the same movies and other things that are similar. I already feel like Jacob and I are dating, even though we have not met yet. We talk on the phone a lot, and text. The funny thing is I didn’t give him the time of day until I needed to vent. There are things I worry about. He has been divorced and has two young kids. Shouldn’t I be having second thoughts? WE have only been romantically ‘talking’ for a few days..but it feels so right.

Where do I go from here? I can’t drive so he has to come to me. We were gonna have our first date but he can’t get away from a family dinner. Do I just take it day by day, and let it go the way it is, or should I take a step back and think about what I want?

Day by day sounds good. That is always the only thing you really can do in life. Now each day may be taken to think about should you take a step back, but why not just continuing enjoying whats happening, but also make sure not to overly commit too much of yourself to him to the point of being disappointed by the slightest mishap that may come between you. If you feel like he's a good person with a plan for his life (having a plan or some foundation is important), then continue to give him the opportunity to show you he's worth the feelings you're having.Definitely try to make that first date happen, assuming it will be within a safe environment. As comfortable as you may feel with someone you meet online, its still always best to take all necessary precautions to watch out for yourself.

I would certain keep your guard up... That will never hurt. As far as ink having chatting a few days and being so happy, there is nothing wrong with that. You simply are feeling that euphoria over meeting someone and talking to someone who seems so in tune with you and could potentially be great for you. However, I would certainly take time to continue learning this person and building on your knowledge of him and be cautious about rushing into things. Being happy is greT and normal- as long as this guy is actually who you think he is. Just kee getting to know him and be careful when being vulnerable with any person you don't really Know.... Keep in mind people sometimes use Internet for meeting people for sinister reasons- to bully, hurt, stalk etc. keepin mind your safety and give yourself time to get to know him- it could grow to some great relationship some day. Only time will tell, Ultimately your safety should come first
