Is it possible to be in love with someone even if you haven't seen them in years?

I met him in high school after this huge drama in my life happened. And he never once judged me. Even when it seemed like all his friends did and ignored me, he never once did. I think that's what made me be interested in him. That's how it started out, I was just interested in him but not in a crush sense - like I could be interested in a girl but I'm straight - he was just a very interesting guy. So I got to know him more and we talked in high school but when summer came I wouldn't see him - but I'd still talk to him online. Senior year rolled around and I still hadn't told him that I started to really like him - though I thought I made it obvious, he was very awkward with girls and very oblivious as one of his friends mentioned to me at one point. It's been two years since I've seen him but we talk almost everyday online or text. No matter how much I try to look at other guys and move on, it's like I compare each and every one of them to him. Recently I found out from a mutual friend of ours, which so happens to be one of my best friends, he may be interested in me. It ruined my plan to get over him but at the same time I think I might be in love with him because I avoid getting into any relationships. I haven't had a boyfriend since I met him because I still hope that he'll push his awkwardness and shyness aside to do something. But how can this be when I haven't seen him in so long? Does it matter? I'm confused and I just want to move on but at the same time I just wait for him. But he hasn't done anything in two years... so why should I wait?Is it possible to be in love with someone even if you haven't seen them in years?
Of course.If you see him and if you like him then go for it!Is it possible to be in love with someone even if you haven't seen them in years?
Obviously you've maintained a relationship, albeit long-distance. So, actually seeing him in person is not the main point. Seems like you both enjoy each other, so nothing wrong with trying out the next level in your relationship and see how it goes.
If you love him, wait . Im going through the same thing, I love a boy, and i dont want anyone else but him ! I would wait and maybe compliment him, and give him hints you like him, so maybe he'll be more confident .
Yes!
Probably.
Anything is possible
yes
You haven't seen him in a long time. It's the most annoying advice, but give up. You have got to find yourself a project, another person perhaps. I had/have a similar experience, and to be honest if you hold out nothing ever happens. 2 years and no hint within that time, I think it's probably time you shopped around. Not that I'm saying don't compare, that's always fun, and don't just not talk to them, you're their friend too remember. Sorry.
Absolutely yes you can still be love with him, now trying to really get the scoop on how he truly feels about you might be some work. if you want to be brave is since you talk to him online you could just ask him yourself and see if that works. or ask your friend to get more detail for you from her source if she can. The reason he has not said anything is (like you say) he is awkward around females and he if likes you then it is harder for him to put his feelings out there. if you are still in contact with any of his friends then ask them, I know they will know.
Your waiting for him to make the first move, which is wrong, lol you should go ahead and ask HIM out. It's the 21st century and women are capable of anything :), now even more than ever you should go ahead and ask him out because now you know there is a high possibility of him accepting. :D Love doesn't go away just in a blink of an eye! So ofcourse there would be a longggg time before you start forgetting about him! ASK HIM OUT! ....NOW! xD
Yes, it's possible. %26amp; you should make a move, let him know about your feelings, ask him about his...it's been two years now so if he hasn't made a move why keep waiting? Try to figure out the relation between the both of you...if he feels the same way then you shouldn't move on in other relationships. Make the move girl, if your in love! What's the worse thing that can happen?!
