Thoughts/experiences on online relationships?

Thoughts on dating a guy you met online? Or experiences?
 
I really like this guy, he is who he says he is, ya know in terms of looks! However I can't speak about if it's personality is 100% true and everything he's said. But the issue is, he lives on the other side of the world... He wants to try us out but I'm a little skeptical about how well it'll work, ofc I'll travel at some point but yah, not in the near future.
