I could say so much...but I will try to stick with just a couple things..
"chatting, texting, skyping with this guy for over 3 months"....it is REALLY hard
to get to know WHO someone is by doing just these things. We start to fantasize
about who they might be...who can live up to that?
I know it could be difficult to try and get to know someone who is long distance. But I do not think we really get to know them until we spend some time with them..in person - and it still takes awhile. With that said, it would not be safe do do all that driving to see someone you did not get to know very well. If you want to meet them - long distance..he would be the one to come see you..and not stay with you - be safe - he would have to prove himself.
You got yourself into an emotional relationship...but not in person. Those can be very exciting.. but risky & not based in reality.
A lot of us have done this - ouch ouch ouch
I do understand why you are not happy about this...I hope he treated you well while you were there,
