I'm scared of how attached I'm getting to this guy. Every time he talks to me it's the highlight of my day, even if it's just a short message (since we're several timezones apart we mostly only chat slowly back and forth) If I find that I've done something to make him happy, it leaves me in an unreasonable state of bliss. It's getting too tempting to drop everything else and devote myself to making him happy. It hurts so much for us to be apart. So much I could die. I'm scared

Well..... I would love to say some encouraging words to you but I've been there before and that got me a kick in the butt after the girl decided I was not useful anymore so... Don't let your emotions get the best of you Thoigh since in your case the guy lives far away and you don't see each other daily it'd be infinitely easier to recover if things went south

Don't be reckless and don't devote yourself to something or someone before knowing if it'll pay off

Unless you have a way of moving in together and you're sure of being with him.... don't bother. It'll end up in a mess. Long distance is rarely ever a good idea.

Thanks, everyone. I know it's dangerous. Any ideas how to disentangle myself?

Find some distractions and people/friends to occupy your time close and offline.

Join a local hobby club or something.

There's no way to know if something will pay off. All relationships ultimately rely on luck, faith, trust, and mutual vulnerability. The best you can do is to look for warning signs of destructive behavior and avoid them.
