Confused love

Okay to cut a long story short... Met a girl out clubbin, she told me she was an exchange student and going back to Canada soon and that she was up for a bit of fun. Had a bit of fun with her for a few weeks. As the weeks went on this playish fun of meeting her every night turned into a necessity. She went on holiday for a week and i missed her to death and visa versa... I think i love her. Anyway she's now just gone back to Canada and i'm here in England. I know i'm going to have to get over her eventually, but the question is should i go to Canada to visit her... go to all that effort to see her for a week, just to crushed again at the end? Also the summer has been long, dry and boring thus far.

if you love her, then i think you should try make it work. however, it needs both of you to be willing to make it work. a long distance relationship can work, however, takes effort, trust, loyalty and love. from the way you have described it, if she is willing to take a shot at having a relationship, go for it! and if that is the case, you will not necessarily be crushed at the end of it :smile:

lol DOnt be ridiculous. Mate, there's plenty more fish in the sea, and although it was amazing there will be plenty more opportunity. This idea of "soulmates" ie theres only one person in the world destined for you is a complete load of tosh; its one of these dont cry because its over, smile because it happened things.

I'd take her as a fantastic penpal to have, but look elsewhere for a more stable relationship, for your own good (and hers too). :smile:

I wouldnt if that was me because i dont tend to put myself in at the deep end just to get hurt again. you obviously care for her but arent strong enough to be without her, and she lives in canada which is a hell of a long distance relationship.

on the other hand, perhaps its not love and you just enjoy the fact that you cant have her more than you actually want her.
