Here's my personal opinion.
Regardless of whether the relationship starts face-to-face or on-line, I think the vast majority of long distance relationships eventually fade away. While there are always exceptions, over the long run they are pretty rare.
Sooner or later people want more than what a virtual relationship has to offer, and find it with someone closer to home. A true relationship involves more than phone calls and banging away on a keyboard. And no matter what you may believe, an on-line relationship doesn't provide the emotional support and bonding you achieve in a physical relationship. It just doesn't.
If all you're looking for is friendship, that's one thing. Looking for a girlfriend on-line is quite another.
Whether you choose to accept it or ignore it, Pete's advice is likely the best you'll receive.
