Congrats. You deserve happiness & love. Hope it's forever, but it'll be what it'll be - just enjoy it and let it become whatever it becomes.
I can't say much about the "online" aspect. I've never met someone romantically online, nor know anyone who has. (ok, we won't count the relative who dragged her significant other to another state so they could live with a guy she met online and be a threesome - things did not turn out pretty ). But I know that I have online friends that I would tell things to that I wouldn't tell some of my closest "real life" friends. It's certainly possible to bond without meeting. Look at it one way - some couples start off all hot & heavy and don't really talk, by the time they cool off enough to talk a lot, they realize all they have is chemistry. You've been talking from the beginning, you may very well know each other better than a lot of couples who have together all along.
As for the rest. Well, I have a friend who was in her 40's when she first fell in love. She was married young (pushed into it by family & church), had several children, didn't have a very happy life. Then in her 40's she met the love of her life - who just happened to be another woman. They've been together now well over 20 years, and even were married a few years ago (not locally, sigh). When love hits, it can take you by surprise.
My best wishes for the two of you.
