No, it's a sign to them -- although it may not be, to you -- that he's manipulating you into thinking you love him, when you've never met him. It's telling them that you're so wrapped up in this two-dimensional image of a guy -- who may or may not be who he seems -- that your vision is getting cloudy; that you are basing your happiness on him, while they have strong doubts about him. It's a very bad sign to skeptical parents.

I've gotta ask: how can you love someone that you've never had the pleasure of seeing with your own eyes? Regardless of his actual looks, but based on the way he makes you feel by how he holds you in his arms, or looks into your eyes with nothing but affection? "Loving" in a general, religious type of way, sure, but in the way you mean it -- I am very, very doubtful. Others may disagree with me, but I don't think any form of genuine "love" exists if the feelings stay rooted in the internet, and over IM's.

He seems to be manipulating you into having a strong emotional investment in him. Telling someone that without her you'd commit suicide, is manipulation. It's the same as what would happen in a 3-dimensional relationship. In fact, it makes it that much worse that he says it online. If he's that unstable, then I think you should cut off this relationship as soon as possible. Not someone you want to be around in person, if he's being serious. With every update you give, it's worrying me more and more about how genuine he is behaving.
