It started as me trying to help her on another forum, she was a very tormented girl. We became close because we each serve a essential need for each other, we need each other !!
So you met online? Interesting. It is always said that online stuff has a small chance of working out. I'm glad to learn of an instance where the odds were beaten.

I need someone to care for, and she needs someone to care for her. I came from a horrible back-round too of self hate, loathing, and destructiveness ... But I found a way out, and I tend to guide and show her how to live. And in turn she gives me a reason to live.
This reminds me of a similar story I found on Reddit. Some guy was scanning Craigslist and responded to an ad that said, "I like to **** geeks" or something to that effect. He reckons he only stood a chance with her because she had daddy issues. A bit self-depreciating, but at least he's honest. Why am I telling you that?

And lets not forget the obvious ... she's 20, and I haven't had a relationship since before she was born.... She's willing, and I am NOT going to say no !! I live in the USA, and personally can't stand American women... :club:
Damn. Oh, God. I agree with your sentiment on American women. For me, it expands to Western women in general, but American ones are low on the chart for me. Way below it, in fact. You mentioned her being Canadian. Canadian women did interest me for a while, but some say they're worse than their counterparts to the south. Lot of beautiful women there though; that's for sure.

She is as shy and timid as anyone I have ever seen, listens to every word I say, and adores me. I am going to die with a BIG SMILE on my face, but won't have any blood in it... If you know what I mean ..
I can't say I know what you mean at all, sir.

I have nothing to lose, but everything to gain. After 7 years in isolation, I am not going to die alone. Because I couldn't find anyone that cares... She does. And that's good enough reason for me to try.
I'm not trying to talk you out of it. Unlike most people (here and elsewhere), I'm not a member of the S.S. Forever Complaining. You were lonely; you found someone; now you're not. You fixed your stuff instead of choosing to whine about it. I'm 100% on your side and agree with what you're doing. Do whatever you can to fix yourself. Date someone younger, get a puppy, become a counter-terrorist, join the Navy. Do
something, you know? Go for it, guy. And do keep us posted!
