I am flying over 1000 miles to see a woman I met before Christmas |OT| On her money.

Ah I see. Well, to be fair to those betting, the HIV can take up to 6 months to show up in a test. And by then, OP's girl might not be sending him money anymore for things like air plane tickets/STD testing


You're right, but for the sake of simplicity I guess that would fall under Tears. This isn't any serious betting, after all. I'm just curious as to what people think will actually go down besides gleefully predicting marriage and/or a dirt nap. :)

But did your relationship go anything like this?

I can't see this girl not going nuts if things dont work out, especially with a $300 ticket that OP felt obliged to take.


Well, this is just the end guessing for this initial meeting. My own relationship didn't even take off until 6(?) years after that first meeting. :)

This does sound distressingly familiar to a friend of mine who fell in love really quickly and got married within just a few months of meeting her. Now, they're separated with four kids.

Four kids? How long were they married?
 
It can still end in happiness and there be just a couple missing organs.

Haha. Also true! Too many variables. I give up. I wish him well, though.


Depends on his skill with pyrography!

I do hear that's the way to a girl's heart. That and booze. :D

put me down for tears.


tears of happiness that is. MY tears of happiness that is.[/QUOTE]

Ends in Happiness: 2 (+1, but only for Ghostmate)
Ends in Tears/Children/STDS/Missing Organs: 2

I can see a middle ground happening. OP has an awesome weekend, but then gets chlamydia.

Haven't checked all the responses yet just the first page but nobody finds this kind of creepy? I mean someone spending 600$+ on you (because you were allowed to keep the 300) after a few days of online chat and talking on the phone? How does this happen over a few days and not at least a couple weeks of talking, these are complete strangers over the internet...

I feel like I'm missing something here. Has she shown you her face? Did you ask to talk on webcam + confirm her identity? Did you vet her via google or other sites? Is OP going to get himself into some texas chainsaw shit?



This is what I imagine. I would be kind of worried.

That's great that it eventually worked out even after a long time!

Long distance is awful, but it can work for those who are dedicated and have a plan for when the long distance will end.

The |OT| in the title confuses me. This is an official topic meaning there are going to be more gaffers flying over 1000 miles to see a woman they met before Christmas?

dont worry bro you dont need condoms

you want the full effect, skin on skin, fluids mixing with fluids, free unimpeded transfer of microbes from her reproductive tract to yours

it'll make your body stronger and your bonds longer

also if I were you i'd take the 300 dollars she gave me and buy her the most beautiful pair of 300 dollar earrings ever and pin them to an epic poem you pen on the plane while your infatuation neurotransmitters are kicking in and taking control of your CNS
 
I bet we get neither happiness nor tears. "It just didn't work out." Book it!

Well, that would be anti-climactic, wouldn't it?



?_?

Haha. Yeah. He was blocked two times before it actually worked out, but his patience paid off. Long distance is tough, but the plan is key. And the internet. :p

Ofc it's creepy, which is why everyone is interested in it.

You know how gaf hypes up a game beyond belief, and you start to believe that its the best game ever? Then you play it, and its mediocre and could never lived up to your hype? This is what that looks like.
Best of luck op, just try and keep you expectations in check.

works at a bio lab, remember?
Yes, they use urine samples for some of the tests now, which is a godsend for guys. They problem is the sample won't be as accurate for women because of basic physiological reasons. Do they offer gyne swabs at this bio lab, too?

Also, the last place I would want to get STI-tested would be my workplace.

And yes, some tests won't have positive results until 3-6 months after the fact.

Maybe I'm just being negative and paranoid.

Dude, once more: BRING CONDOMS OR YOUR DICK WILL FALL OFF!

seriously, don't take this stuff on faith and get tested first. You don't want to be stuck with an STD for the rest of your life because 'She said it was okay'.


Put me down for tears btw, no way this is gonna end good. Which is good

I think most of us know that, but based on how the OP is handling this by making a huge thread about it, avatar quoting himself several times like it's funny, making this an "OT" and generally how he's handling this, it's going to be amusing to see his response.
