Hello All!
I recently needed advice from you guys about being in a relationship and having an online SO. This was my orgional post from that thread..
"My name is Emily and I've met the man I love dearly online. But theres a tiny problem..I've had a boyfriend for the past 3.5 years.
I've never kept my boyfriend from my online SO, so its not a big secret. And my boyfriend knows about "the friend I talk to that I've met online" but he doesn't know I love him. The relationship with my boyfriend has been very rocky. We met eachother in high school and I was convinced I'd marry him in the future. Our relationship got really bad and decided to break up a few summers back and thats when I met my online SO..we were both intending to find someone new to talk to but we found that we had this love for eachother that, I felt, was much stronger than my boyfriend. Obviously my boyfriend and I ended up getting back together..Hes the type that threatens to kill himself if I really leave him. How can I live with myself if that were to actually happen? How do I cope with seeing him with another girl, when for the past 3.5 years he was my life?
I love my online SO.. but I'm so afraid to hurt my current boyfriend.
Please..someone help with some words of advice.."
I'd like to thank everyone who gave me a lot of support, I needed your kind words to make a difficult decision.
Tonight was the night, it is officially over with my boyfriend and I. 30 seconds ago I just told my online SO from Florida and he couldn't be happier! I am absolutely excited to see where this journey takes me with my SO.
We are currently in the process of making plans to vist eachother within the year.
Thank you all for your support.
