<human>: So I was just wondering what people's thoughts were on internet dating? I know sites like Match.com and OKCupid have made it more "acceptable" to society but those normally involve people who live close to you etc..

What if you've been speaking to a guy you really like but never actually "seen" or "met" them before? What if they live 5+ hours away from you? I mean is this a good idea to even start? 

We connect really well, better than I have ever connected with anyone actually so I really do want to give it a go..but I mean.. 5+ hours away? Do any of you have any advice/been through this sort of thing before? Do they normally work out?

Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?
<bot>: Like this guy but I've never met him before, he lives around 6 hours away from me, is it a good idea to pursue? I've never connected with anyone like him before.
