I'm usually a lurker, but as I found this site right after coming back from the first meeting with my SO and I was struggling, this forum has helped me a lot over the last months. So i guess it's time for an introduction. I live in a small country in EU and he lives in Turkey, we have around 3000 km distance. We talk in English, which is neither of our native language, but we can speak it well enough. I'm over time learning a few Turkish words here and there.
Our story: My SO and I met a bit over a year ago through a roleplay community related to a game we both love to play (our characters became lovers). It was my first time doing any kind of roleplay and I started talking to him quite a lot to ask question about it. After a few days of roleplaying till early hours, we added each other on the game and started playing together with him and his friends. Over time we became close friends, we said "I love you" (as friends) to each other after 2 months of knowing each other. Soon after we called each other best friends. We had the ups and downs in our friendship, but at the end of August, we started to realize that it's more than just a friendship. It was long time coming and neither of us wanted to ask the question, fearing that it will damage our friendship. But on day, during a joking text chat, we somehow got there and found out that we both feel the same for each other. I couldn't have been happier (that was the beginning of September). A month and a half later, I flew to him and spent an amazing week in Turkey. I've never felt happier and more natural and at peace with anyone.
As we are both in the process of find a job/our place in the career world, we don't have that much money or time to meet often right now, but we do the best that we can. I last saw him 4 months ago and i won't see him at least in the next few months. But we do videocalls every day and latest amazing find was the Couple app, I completely love it! Trying out what i can to make it easier to cope! I'm glad to be a part of this community!

. My boyfriend lives in Turkey, too. He is from the countryside close to Syria, but he usually live on the Antalya coast, which was where I met him on holiday. Turkey is so the best holiday country, it is great even in winter
