I must agree with beentherehavetee. This person is lying about themselves and that's why they keep putting off a real meeting.

... Time to move on. I sent her an e-mail 30 mins. ago tellling her politely that the chatting would have to end unless she was willing to establish, in the least, a face-to-face friendship and even then I can no longer squander all this time nightly. Very unhealthy when I could be getting out there and making some real world relationships. So thanks for the kick in the butt that I needed everyone. I really did need the reality check.
Well done, Mr221. This was a wise move, even though I know it must have been a difficult one to make. I hope that you are able to make some new friends both online and in "real" life who will be able to give you a more satisfying relationship. Your patience is admirable, but there are limits!

Your friend in SoCal may have been telling you the truth, but with such a reluctance to meet it is hard to say. The general perception around here (on the Advice boards) is that it is far better to meet fairly quickly than to carry on a lengthy online relationship. Some long-distance relationships work out, but usually only when the couple have known each other in person as well.
