'I'm in love with a 14-year-old girl'

I met this Irish girl on a social website and have been chatting with her ever since. I think I have fallen for her. My friends think I'm crazy as she claims she is 14. Maybe they are right. But I have completely cut off from everything and only want to chat with her. She tells me fun, sexy things and I get totally carried away.

Dear Sreenath,
Your friends are right. If what she claims about her age is true, she is still young and probably at school. She may be lying and who knows she might be someone from those adult chat portals talking about fun, sexy stuff. Even if you ask her for a photograph, she could send any pic of a 14-year-old from the net. Casual chatting is one thing but wanting to spend the rest of your life with her is a major call. One way of knowing the truth is to meet her. Ireland may be far away but not impossible to visit.u00a0
