A lot of American guys meet Asian women online and end up long-distance with time zones, visas, and trust issues. If you had (or have) a long-distance relationship with an Asian woman, what helped it move toward a real-life meetup?

Daily video calls and being honest about time zones helped a lot. If someone “can’t” video regularly, I just assume it’s not serious or not real and move on.

We set a clear timeline early on: visit 1, visit 2, and then decide about moving. Without that it just feels like endless texting. Having dates on the calendar kept us both motivated.

My rule is never send money and never make big promises until you’ve met in person. Flights and visas are expensive, but still cheaper than getting emotionally scammed for years.

We watched shows together on Discord, played games and did “date nights” online. Sounds cheesy but it made the distance feel less brutal until we could actually meet.

Honestly, if neither of you can realistically visit within a year or two, it’s very hard to keep it real. Once we set a concrete meet up date everything felt more serious and less like fantasy.
