I've been talking to this guy for coming up on 11 months via the telephone, having never met him face to face. Is this crazy?

I think its crazy. Do you believe him?do you believe what he says about him self just by phone?do you tell the truth about you? Do you love him?he loves you? As i know usually man close to woman because he want something. Why dont you try to meet?

He's in the military. I do believe most of what he says because he is a friend of my sisters and he knows I can just verify it through her if i wanted to. I just find myself wondering why he bothers with someone he hasn't even met in person yet. He says I sound nice and look cute etc, but everytime I have tried to give him an excuse to drop the "phone relationship", he convinces me to stick with it at least till we meet. We're not "boyfriend" "girlfriend" or anything, we just like each other and trust me, I know its weird but it's hard to see it clearly from outside the box.

I had a male friend who was also of Filipino descent but already an American citizen. We chatted everyday, saw each other through skype facilities, and mostly texting each other. We had done that usual daily routine for almost two years. Sometimes he initiated calls to my cellphone and we talked long. I found out something that really made me decide to stop the "relationship". I really dislike people who are dishonest and those who purposely lie to get away with events. It may be the woman's instinct in me, I seem to easily sense if there is something "fishy". I confirmed that fact and I stayed away from him. I don't see anything beneficial to both of us in a long-distance relationship. It would surely be different on a personal encounter thing.

hello, butterflytears. Not all people would understand your situation unless they're been or currently in the same situation as you. But, we can't still avoid to doubt the person if all what he said is true. Are you serious of your relationship?
