What should I do? I like this guy, but I don't know him physically, at all. We met online and are in different states.

First of all you are 13-15 years old and you have no idea if it's even a young boy you are communicating with. This could be a potentially dangerous scenario. Pictures don't mean sh*t either. Anybody can collect pics and pose as someone they are not.

you could always exchange a picture. However... please be careful. Do not give away your contact information, or where you live or your full name or any other information like that. It is difficult to know if the other person is real.. hopefully they are. And not a predator. If you decide to meet... I would suggest not doing it alone... maybe even parents if they are supportive, or someone older that can help you. Just be cautious and have fun! :)

That, plus your age, says that you should just forget about him and not talk any more.

As someone who has dated online a few times and been with people in real life I dated online here is my advice...
First off you are to young to worry about it. If you can stay close for a few years you might consider a visit once you live on your own. Here is the issue with online dating..
You only talk to each other and interact when it is convenient too. I know to many friends who knew their online boyfriend or girlfriend for literally years 5+ sometimes. They go to visit and nothing is like what they expected. I don't just mean looks either you can cam for years and still never really get to know them. Visiting in real life is crossing that boundary that the online barrier gives you. More often than not it will prove to be a quick dying interest in each other. If you can wait till you move out on your own and then still want to visit go for it... If you can't then they aren't worth it to begin with anyway.
