Thanks for the link, and for the kind words. I'm also sorry; I don't mean to come across as prickly or over-sensitive or anything like that. I know you were only trying to help, and I am grateful for your valuable comments.

Oh, no, no need to apologize. I understand how you feel. I DO hope and wish for you that this relationship does have a happy ending. One never knows until you try and you are trying to see were this relationship goes.
Since maybe you can't get away from work to fly to where she is but could her and her mother fly to VA to meet you in the near future?
6 months is a good period of time to get to know one another on-line but then it will get stale and boring if both of you don't meet in person soon.
I would definitely, though, find out about her and make sure she is who she says she is before her flying out to see you.

Lol, no once I save up enough vacation time, I could easily get approved for some time away from work...I had just meant earlier, that since I work for Uncle Sam in D.C., I'm not really in a position to be able to relocate elsewhere and also maintain the same standard of living for a hopeful future wife/child/family. I would gladly go see her, as soon as I am able. (Also gotta start saving up for a vacation fund! )

Agreed with you 100%, on the two points mentioned above
So do her parents know all about you, how old you are? Or is your online romance a secret from them?
I never pressured her either way, or asked her to keep anything a secret -- IMO, she is welcome to tell her parents about us, if she wants to. She elected on her own initiative, not to tell her parents. But so far, neither of us have told our immediate families yet so far, b/c we both feel they just wouldn't understand how we feel about each other.
