Hello all, long time lurker, first time poster here! LOL.
So Im just wanting to have your opinion on if I should propose to my girlfriend or not. I'm really into this girl, we have been together about 4 months, met on OKC, talked every day. Hearing from her is the highlight of my day.
The reason Im not sure if I should propose is because of the fact that Ive never met her face to face. Ive read some of these other threads BUT we have been on skype, she is my facebook friend and we both own iPhones so we have used facetime. I know its really her. Sometimes at night we will start a movie at the same time on netflix and both watch it so it feels like we're on a date.
I dont want to be with anyone else, cuz Im 37 and time is a tickin, and I love her for true.
Is proposing a good idea or should I move states to be nearer her first?
Well you see shes way up in Delaware and Im way down in texas and its kind of an expensive thing. but i had planned to go up for her birthday next month, so ive been savin for that. i was thinking of proposing then.
Oh good Lord!
All the carrying on about divorce rates, etc. You would honestly marry someone you have "known" 4 months and never even seen in person. Whats going to happen if she accepts. Will you move states to be nearer her or will you carry out your marriage via skype and facebook?

If you don't have enough money to buy a roundtrip ticket on Southwest, you really have no business thinking about marriage.
You're 37. You really can't scrape together $250 to meet the person you want to spend the next 50 years with?
I would say that until you've actually known and DATED (in person) for at least a year (and better two), it's too early to propose. Your next step should be to find a way for one of you to move near the other. And date for at least 6 months before even considering living together, but preferably for a year.
Sometimes apparently bad choices do work out, but the odds are against you.
that was my concern lepew, its pretty quick but lots of ppl have told me 'when you know, you know.' and I know.
I know what you mean by "you know", but you really don't. You know you like what you see so far, but that's a small window you're looking through. Wait till you see the whole picture. That takes time.
