I have been seeing this girl on the internet and she has become my internet GF. She doesn’t really know much at all about me, and has recently started asking me questions to let her know me. The problem is that I don’t want to disappoint her and possibly lose her by revealing that I might be way too different for her to properly handle. She has been asking me what I do on my free time and what I do with my friends. But how do I tell her that I don’t really have any friends anymore? How do I tell her that I never really had a GF without weirding her out? I like her very much and don’t want her to toss me in the trash, so what can be done? How can I keep the flow going well and harmoniously?

You don't have to tell her you have no friends...but you should go out and try to make some.

You don't have to tell her you've never had a girlfriend before.

How old are you?

What are you most interested in? My guess would be English history.

I'm 25.
I don't know what I'm most interested in, but working out and playing the piano / composing are up there. She already knows that I do that though.

There's a certain kind of girl who will always be attracted to composers.

Do you compose classical music?

I recently finished composing a piece that is very baroque/classical sounding. so, yes.

That's pretty nifty. Could you post it in the music/art section of WrongPlanet?

that's not a bad idea, but I'd like to copyright it first if I could.

That makes sense.

Is your girlfriend into classical music, too?

I honestly don't yet know what kind she's into. but she looks like she might like it.

My wife knew before we got married that I only had 1 or 2 real girlfriends before here, and it didn't freak her out at all. I was 31 at the time, so that was pretty much way behind all of my age peers. The right woman for you won't care about that. Would you freak out if you found out your internet girlfriend had never had a boyfriend before?

No, I would actually like that. but she's a female, and I think females are far more likely to think it weird if a boy never had a girl.
What did I do so far? I lied. I told her that I had one GF before.

It would be interesting to find out if that is really true or not.

Are you too different for her to handle?

Don't be dishonest because that will come back to haunt you. Understand though, that forging new relationships aren't about talking about the past, but the present and the future. Maybe you haven't been the most exciting person in the world (nor should you have t be), but what non-sexual things do you think would be fun to do with a girlfriend. Is she nearby? Invite her to do one of those things.

She is not nearby; she is from a European country. I want her to eventually fly to me here in Texas.

Just be wary. She might want you so she can get a Green Card.

I don't see anything really morally wrong with that--people want a better life.

But....be wary, nevertheless because she might "like" you for that reason.
