Dear Queenie,
I have an Internet boyfriend but I don’t think we’ll ever be together in person. Meanwhile, I’ve met a man I really like.
Queenie, I don’t want to break up with my Internet boyfriend but I like this guy too. What should I do?—Undecided
Dear Undecided,
You can stay friends with your Internet “boyfriend” but if there is little or no chance you will ever be together in person, consider him a “friend”, not a “boyfriend”.
Something more may develop if you ever meet up with your Internet friend in person, but meanwhile give both of you the chance for an in-person romance.
