I’ve never met my online boyfriend, but he’s about to propose. Am I crazy to consider?
Hi Jake,I met a guy through Facebook, and we’ve been texting each other for almost half a year… but haven’t met in person. I swear, this is the real deal!
We send romantic texts and emails throughout the day, chat for hours into the night, and regularly Facetime. There is an undeniable chemistry between us and I don’t think I’ve ever been treated with such adoration.

I was super excited, until recently when he said–spoiler alert–he’s going to propose! I wasn’t sure how serious he was, but then he asked for my ring size, and keeps sending a text emoji of two rings together. Don’t get me wrong, at first I felt flattered.
I mean, I haven’t been proposed to before! Part of me wants to say “Let’s see how this goes!” and let him sweep me off my feet. At the same time, I’m probably not ready to be married, much less to someone I’ve only seen online. He actually said that if we don’t tie the knot, he’ll probably need to end our relationship, saying marriage is what he wants more than anything, and he has no more time to waste. I can’t decide if I should just throw caution to the wind, or risk losing the person I’m in love with.Swiping Right… or Wrong?Dear Swiping Right… or Wrong?,An online relationship can be very exciting and fulfilling.
