Search Results: friend vs. relationship

So for the past few years I have been looking for someone who is like-minded (or at least somewhat similiar to me) and it's always ended boring/badly or went nowhere.

I'm pretty much done with going that route and would rather try a different approach in hopes of getting better results.

I feel like if I want a friend than I should look for someone who has the same common interests.

BUT I feel if I want a relationship I should go after a girl who I have a strong attraction to and am lusting for.

I feel like what's been ruining all those other attempts has been the lack of passion & heat, the desire isn't strong so there is no drive to pursue further or explore where things could go.

I don't know, what do you think?

*I would have made "Both" an option on the poll but everyone would have picked it so it seemed pointless...

so, first, im flirting with a girl online. We never met and she lives really far away ( im in usa, she's in asia).

But somehow, things worked really well! she flirted with me back, we talked on webcam, and she told me she was interested in me, and see me more than a friend! :)

But she doesn't want to enter in a relationship before we met IRL!

Im planning on going to asia this summer to meet her, but here's my question :

We flirt often, and talked litterally for more than 50hrs in 3 week, but usually in this type of situation, how often can it work if we meet in real life.

What are the odds that she might say, after meeting me IRL : naaahh, finally you are more a friend vs the odds of her saying: i would like if we can be in a relationship, even if its long distance for a while :)

Whats more likely to happen? ( im stressed a bit :P )
