I met a guy on World of Warcraft – yes, judge me, I don’t mind – and he is absolutely lovely and charming and just spectacular really (I realize the guy has flaws too but, these are the first things that come to mind when I think of him).
We’ve been talking for nearly two months now, we’ve video called each other a couple times too, but both our internet connections are crap so, we mostly IM.
We have a SO MUCH in common! And before you make the assumption I say something and he agrees, it’s mostly been the other way around – which is a whole new experience for me. So, what I mean to say is that I think he’s a pretty legit guy.
He wants to meet me but, we live on different continents. He wants to fly to my capitol and meet me and maybe go on a roadtrip or something. I feel like I know him really well and vice versa. But, what if it doesn’t turn out that way in person?
I doubt myself A LOT. Is this a good idea? He is a stranger after all. But, is it really any different to meeting someone in a shop or café? What more would I know about them from seeing them in person to meeting them online? If anything I know him better than any passing guy I met at the gym or whatever. The amount we’ve spoken and shared.
And yet, I doubt myself.
I suppose it’s early days yet – he won’t be able to afford to visit til the middle of next year minimum but, what if what if what if WHAT IFFFF!?
Am I being an idiot, do these things ever work out? I really like him and I definitely have cravings to meet him – IM just doesn’t seem enough anymore, never really did to begin with if I’m honest. Ugh, am an ‘adult’ now – I should be able to do things like this with minimal fear right?
What’s everyone’s opinion on it all? Should I meet him? Are my feelings actually real? I will make precautions – my best friend will know where I am twice a day and we’ll have a safe word and what not incase he does actually try to or succeeds in murdering me but, I feel like I can trust him…
AH! SELF DOUBT IS PREVALENT HERE!
