What YOU want, and what THEY want, are two *totally* seperate things.

What the others said, plus that essentially you imply that the only
reason you are only interested in girls is when they want to go to bed
with you. Any person, which includes women, which includes this girl,,
is a human being.

That's not what makes me sad. What makes me sad is that I am never going
to SEE this person. I'll never even know what she looks like.

There are lots of people I vaguely know over the Internet who I
communicate with. What I'd really like is to have somebody I can
physically BE with - lots of the time. This girl may or may not become
my "friend", but I'm never going to be able to hang out with her. And I
was so looking forward to it...

Ask her to send you a photo

You have her phone number. That puts her well ahead of most of your internet
acquaintances. Maybe in a year or 2 she'll be back in your area, or maybe
she'll visit the area from time to time. If you let this slip away, you'll
never know.

You don't know what the future holds, so don't count it out.
"Trying to predict the future is a mug's game. But increasingly it's a
game we all have to play because the world is changing so fast and we
need to have some sort of idea of what the future's actually going to be
like because we are going to have to live there, probably next week."

For people not given to long-term thinking, that may seem like the
better solution. I didn't say it made sense...

Would you really want to be with a girl who was going off to some foreign
country for 5 days every 2 weeks? And then the rest of the time spending
long hours at work?

1) Rent
2) Lower your expectations of what you can afford to buy. You haven't been
working for 20 years like your parents have - you can't get a house like
theirs.
3) Get a job in a cheaper area so you can get a bigger/nicer house.
Seriously - look at house prices in other parts of the country - you will be
surprised. For what I was paying to rent 1/3 of a house in Oxford, my
sister was paying for a 3-bedroom house!
