Seeking advice on a long distance relationship.

Hi.

So I (28/m) started talking to an old Tinder match (23/f) after she texted me early one morning last week. The conversation quickly moved to Snapchat and the next day she gave me her number. After I texted her, she called me that night while she was with her friend and the three of us basically all hung out for a few hours. Me and the lady in question then continued to talk the rest of that night, about 8 hours total. Over the last 10 days we have been talking on the phone every day, usually for 5+ hours everytime (we have logged over 100 hours of video/phone calls already). We have been watching a lot of Netflix Party together and even indulged in some dirty talking on the phone one night. It seems to be going really well, we've both acknowledged how crazy it is that we can talk on the phone for so long and not get bored of each other. We've also talked about meeting up somehow in the midst of this pandemic once the regulations in our area start to lighten up (I'm in PA, she is in NJ...we are about 2.5 hrs apart). Neither one of us really wants to put too much pressure on this relationship right now, it's too early on and too delicate of a situation. Regardless, we both very much enjoy each others company and look forward to trying to meet in person at some point.

I mainly write this to get some outside opinions on the situation. We've both done long distance dating before, and know the challenges that come along with it. We are both somewhat nervous of the possibility that we could fade from each others lives once life starts to get back to normal. What do ya'll think? Is it worth it to try to pursue something? Are we crazy? Do you have any advice on how we should proceed?

The difference between being right and being understood

My (27f) gf (27f) is getting tired of me not sharing intimate/ personal info about me

My (23M) girlfriend (25F) relationship is confusing to me. I might be the problem, or maybe we are just incompatible.
