Not too many people seem to be reading this lately and i really do need some advice on what to do here. So here it goes..

So what do you do when a good friend says she's getting married and is happy and is with an apparently great guy....BUT, you're in love with her? Have been for years more or less... the weird thing is, we've never met face to face, but have been online friends for over 7 years. SEVEN! We have so much in common it's eerie considering we're from such different backgrounds. I guess it's my fault for never having made the plunge so to speak and actually travel out to meet her, but i never had that much money until i came out here and was too preoccupied with my own adventures and self. Gee whiz, i'm in a pickle here. I'm happy for her, but at the same time it feels like i just lost a piece of me. She's not married yet...not until next year sometime. I have no idea what to do.

Update...tentative plans are being made for study in New Zealand next year to get a Teaching Diploma. She wants to go down there with her boyfriend--and study the same course--and is inviting me to house with them. I forsee possible awkardness ahead. My best friend in Korea is also planning on pursuing a Teaching Diploma in New Zealand next year. It seems like fate is drawing me there next year.
