Is it normal for guys to fall in love/cry like this?

I am your average 18 year old guy that would have thought this story was bull shit had I read it before experiencing it.
I met a girl at a 4H trip to Washington DC (there are non-lame things in 4H too) a year and a half ago. I met her on the first day and we hung out for pretty much all day for the whole trip which was only a week, but I fell in love with her. She says she fell in love with me, she cried like crazy when I left. I know that's impossible. I would have told you it was impossible and stupid too.
She lives more than 20 hours away from me, so I didn't see her for a while. Now I am in college and she went on a 4H trip to the same city as my college, so I went to see her. (Last Sunday) We had stayed in touch by texting and Facebook, but I had forgotten how much I loved her. I saw her again and everything came back. I skipped class to see her on Monday and we talked for five hours. When I was leaving she started crying like crazy and cried in my arms for at least 10 mins. My white button up has makeup all over it. When she stopped crying, I kissed her and left.
I got back to my dorm, and I started balling like a baby. I was never going to see her again, and I loved her more than anything. I have never felt this much before. I love her way more than before. I have cried almost every day since I saw her. I need her. She bought a webcam to Skype me and she later told me every time we say bye on there she cries again.
I NEVER cry. I didn't cry a single time in high school. I don't know the last time I cried. Like I said I am your regular guy that just wants sex and isn't touchy feelly. Yet I am IN LOVE WITH HER. You can't understand how much I mean that. There's no doubt. It's not some puppy-love/crush/she's-hot shit. She's really pretty but that has nothing to do with it. I don't even want to have sex with her. I just want to be with her and hold her again. She is the only thing I can think about. Can I really fall in love in a week and hold onto that for over a year? And is it normal for a guy to cry this much over someone? If you had told me this story before I met her I would call you a pussy and said get the fuck over it. I know it sounds totally crazy, but it's true.

    • And this isn't lucky, because I am never going to see her again. Even if I see her once, it would be useless. She lives 17 hours away now. I am going to college for an 8 year degree, currently a freshman, and she is going for 8 1/2 years but is a senior in high school.

      We wouldn't even be capable of living in the same town for 8 years, or 10 years from now when she graduates college.
      I can't have an only webcam relationship for 8-10 years.

      Also what I meant I was bawling not balling. Big difference.

    You must see her again, what if you never get over her and you regret it for the rest of your life?
