I Believe Long Distance Relationship Can Work

I've posted several times about an online relationship I was having with a Korean man I meet in a language exchange program. Sadly it ended. I ended it. I felt the more comfortable we became with one another the more for granted he took me. We had started out strong talking constantly. It became less and less until we would just play message tag. In his eyes he felt like what was the rush. It was going to be a yr or 2 before we meet. (I had things to get done here in the states) And so he kinda put me on the back burner. And kept the attitude of well there's always tomorrow. We have so much time. I tried to be ok with that, but I just couldn't. I found myself longing for him. Just wanting to feel close to him. But he never could seem to understand that. The more I brought it up to him the more he felt I was throwing a tantrum and just trying to control him. After a month an a half of this constant struggle. I finally just blew up. I went off on him. All of my feels just rushed out at once. He said he needed a break. I left him alone for a lil over a week. But during that time I found I just felt happier, so much less stressed out. I mean I was staying so stressed out I was constantly having very emotionally charged intense nightmares over it all. I mean yeah when we did talk we got along extremely well, I just felt like it might have been a sign. There were other things that bugged me about him as well. And I know from experience that it was warning signs, it wouldn't have worked right. Maybe in a different time and place, but not now. I'm going to miss him but I know I made the right choice. My dreams are now quiet and back to normal. So I see that as a good sign.

maybe you can find someone in your country, someone from your neighborhood

That’s the problem in men they rush to much. To quick

Doesn't look like yours worked
@Texasisbestrobb nope. It didn't.
They are very difficult and eventually someone has to make the move so you can be together.
