Ok here goes...I belong to a christian dating website, and there is this gal from Denver that I have been talking to. Her name is Nicole. Well, she sounds great, and we have a lot in common with each other. The only problem is that I live in St. Louis. Bit of a geographical problem I guess you can say. Im trying to put it into God's hands, and let him decide if it is His will. Any advice, encouragement? Anything is possible through God. Thanks. Wayne.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Yeah, if you too are willing to work through the distance them there shouldn't be a problem.

You're older and if I'm not assuming too much, she's probably close to your age.
At this stage, you're more settled so transplanting to a different city, if you're open to it, is more feasible.
The hardest part is waiting if God is willing to bless this budding relationship or not. Don't rush it, man. Keep your risk-level at a minimum.

My parents were penfriends and got married six months after meeting. God will bring you two closer together if that's His will. Focus on Him and pray about it.

If God can part the ocean, If God can forgive us our sins, then I say if His plans include you and her together, then you shall be.

Real love waits.
Try the relationship. If it doesn't work, then it was just too hard.

I am going through the same thing that you are going through. I met my g/f right here on the forums. Thing is that she lives in Laurel MT, just out side of Billings and I live here in Kentucky. I can say this though that we love eachother with all of our hearts and yes it is work trying to find to spend with one another but I will tell you this there is one thing that a long distance relationship will give you and that is communication and you can ask anyone about this but that is the key to your relationship anyway. Take me and Brittany for instance we are going to meet eachother in 16 days. We already know how we feel about eachother and we are not going to let the distance stop us. Like someone mentioned save up for plane tickets. and hey let me add Frontier has some great rates they are who I am using and I am flying out of Nashville. Also phone time and if you use instant messenger get a good webcam its not the same as being with eachother but its better than nothing.

Prayer, talking, as well as sorting out the differences. And also await true timing and the Lord's will.

Online relationships is not easy -- but the Lord knows more than you. The Lord knows how much you really love, how much you really understand, how much you really like about this person.
The Lord has a plan - he always loves you - he never fails to love you and sometimes, you have to see things that aren't love to you, to a positively view of - The Lord is loving me.
Communicating via emails is impersonal but if that's the only way that you can communicate to her - then, you just have to stick with it.
Typing out words and emailing them sometimes is difficult to interpret. Sometimes, typing them is not actually honest - and it is important that you be open and be honest about yourself.
If she lives far, make an appointment to see each other -- set out plans and plan for your holiday and whatever you do in your holiday -- your goal is to see her in-person and to talk to her verbally -- which is more personal than emails. Although, telephoning is more personal than emails and sometimes, hearing voices can mean a lot to the relationship itself. It improves the relationship.
Don't give up praying. Sort out differences and keep talking to each other - communication means better relationships.

Sometimes people don't get other people's humour -- I think, it's just humour -- I find it funny!
