Walking, I have a question, then. How do you get a rel. like that even started? You're not going to go meet someone that far away after just a few conversations, but rel. that start long-distance run the risk of getting built up and then there being no chemistry at all when you meet in person. Or did you meet this person IN PERSON first and then strike something up? I do know a person who was widowed and who met a guy about 3 years after very briefly on the London metro, and they then corresponded via email/phone for awhile, and now they are married, and they spend a decent amount of the year apart and it really works well for them. But she knew there was chemistry at the outset as she did meet him in person first on her last day abroad.
