I found someone online. I want to tell my parents.
16/F
So I joined 'twitter' about a year ago. I joined a thing called "Fake Life." Its where you make an account as a "fake celeb" and roleplayed with others. I started to talk to this boy,Forest, and we became best friends then started to date(fake life boyfriend.) Six months later and we are still talking and getting to know eachother in Real Life. I know where he lives, what he looks like, what his family look like, his dogs name, where he goes to school and he knows the same about me. One of his friends who also have a "fake life" account told me Forest loves me. When Forest got on, I confessed that I loved him too and we were happy. But he said we could never date in real life because of the distance.I live in Iowa and hes in California. I was hurt but it was true. But after that he confessed he hated every single boy in Iowa cause they have more of a chance to be with me then him. I told him thats not true. We want to meet in real life so badly but I cant afford a trip. I really want to tell my parents about it cause they could help but they could also get angry and keep us apart. I really want to know how I should tell them.
I know this may seem wrong but I dont care.
Please help me and Im sorry if this is confusing, its just been bugging me.

You do not know this guy.
Have you ever so much as spoken over the phone? How do you know anything he says is true? It isn't possible to fall in love with someone you have never met. You may well have formed an infatuation for the person you think this guy is, but you have no way of telling if this would work in the 'real world'.
It would be highly dangerous and stupid to even consider meeting him without your parents knowledge. You are 16 years old and still a child. You may think you know best but you should approach this situation with caution.
Be honest with your parents and explain the situation. It's highly likely that they will refuse and yes, they may well advise you to stop contact with this guy. Talk to them maturely and sensibly, don't get hysterical if it doesn't go your way because that will only prove to them that you are not grown up enough for this.
You should also speak to 'Forest' about the possibility of meeting up under the supervision of your parents and his. Try and guage his reaction to this. If he seems shifty and tries to encourage you not to tell your parents, then be very suspicious.
If you do eventually meet in 'real life', be sure to bring your parents along. You may think this is 'lame' or whatever but if their really is something between you, a little caution won't be an issue. Even if he does turn out to be who he says he is, he may be different to what you imagined and you may decide you don't want to continue a relationship afterall. If this is the case, you'll be glad to have your parents there to support you if things turn unpleasant.
If your parents refuse then you'll just have to deal with it. If your relationship is strong, you can wait until you are 18.

okay firstly tell them its a close friendship. Bring them along with you because he could be anyone and have him meet you at the airport. tell them you like him a lot, and would like to see him even if its just as friends. I know you like him and probably want to go alone or with a friend, but he truly could be anyone and your mom and dad knowing this would never let you go alone or with a mate. Take them and then spend time with him alone for a while. Good luck. P>S If it helps let them see you chatting to him over this website your using it will reassure them your being careful about what you say and that you have a close bond with this guy. It could help them see, if this guy is who he says he is, that your friends and know each other well.

long distance relationship is kinda hard to maintain nevertheless it's still possible to be in one. perhaps you lovebirds should take things slowly by just posting email's or texting each other every day. despite the empty feeling you have inside of you due to his absence, you should wait till you could afford tickets or you could even get a job soon and start saving up to get some tickets. however,since it's a two-sided relationship,your guy should also be doing something about this.perhaps he could get a job and come see you if he's truly ,madly,deeply in love with you.

i don't want to sound a bore, but do you really know this guy? i mean you hear lots of scary stories about people who meet up from online sites. but to be fair, you also hear good stories! firstly, if you know who this guy is, you've been on cam or what not then fair enough it's your life...just make sure you stay safe. i would definitely tell your parents about this..obviously i don't know your parents but i am sure that most parents would be supportive. if you are going to meet up with him, i would choose to meet up in your city/town, where you are familar with everywhere...and then suggest that next time you can visit him in california :) it's a fair way of doing it and that way you can really get to know him. i hope it works out for you and good luck <3
