[What_the_hell]

Got myself into something and am not sure what it is :\ Here's the story:
I promised myself to not go on dating websites again, but some time in January, in the middle of binge eating episode, I [impulsively] created a profile. After the episode, I picked myself up and came back to recovery but decided to keep the profile, 'just to look at people'.

Soon enough, I started talking with a girl from another country - which happened to be close to a country I am moving to at the end of this month! We chatted and skyped next day; it was obvious there is a spark & connection; it feels like talking to an old friend + attraction. We have been texting every day since the end of January and also skyping 2-3 times a week.

I keep having very mixed feelings, however because I expected to meet someone in a country I move to and now I got myself in this long-distance thing. I do have feelings for this person, but also have thoughts like 'maybe there's someone better for me out there'. She is very clear about what she wants and both of us would like to meet up; however there is no set date yet. She is looking for opportunities in a country I am moving to (*she planned to leave her country before we started talking #BadEconomy #lackofjobs), but no guarantees.
I am scared I might be 'wasting my time' on someone I may never actually meet; and not notice people who will actually be around in the same location [when I move]. I am afraid I'm turning to her just because there is no one else available right now; at the same time I am sure I enjoy talking to her and am definitely attracted on few levels: she has few qualities, interests and Values that are very important to me, and it feels like we are on the same page - although I do see our differences, too. I also feel very comfortable talking to her. I can be myself and she truly brings my spirits up in difficult *mental* moments, I feel heard and listened to.

On some days, i truly feel it might be 'my person', on others I'm all over the place. (that's the case with my emotions and feelings in general!) And when I feel like 'no, that's not my person and I need to stop this connection', I am not sure whether that's intuition, a gut feeling or just an emotional weather )

...advice, anyone?..

IMO, your feelings are real and legitimate. When we really like someone (whether a friend and especially in romantic relationships), we are putting ourselves out there and taking a real risk. It sounds like you really like her but want a relationship that is not long distance. Do you think this is why you are all over the place?

If this relationship is uplifting, why stop if she also feels the same way? Since the distance bothers you (?) make no commitments to her--you are right, how can she ever become more than a friend if you do not even live in the same country? You says she wants to meet. Since you really like her, why not? Just be realistic about what is possible with her given the distance. Since you have no other special person in your life--Why not meet and enjoy the moment with no expections about the future. In college, I dated someone who I knew I would never "be with" long term yet thoroughly enjoyed our time together. It hurt when he moved but I would do it all again except for not neglecting my studies. Be careful about texting and skyping so much that you are neglecting other things in your life. Enjoy your time with her but decide how much time you should really be spending on your relationship with her. Maintain balance and perspective (it is not easy to do sometimes. )

yes, being realistic and maintaining perspective is hard sometimes - I am quite a romantic person and part of me already envisions our future together :s especially because we discussed our attitudes about marriage and having kids in future and found we have similar views on those topics.
But I guess in any relationship, even if you plan something, there is never a guarantee!..
