Am i doomed if i want to go pro on fighting games and i dont have anyone to play with locally ?
Online play isn't really helping much since most of the players I play with online don't take the game seriously or love it as much as someone like me, should this be a reason to give up ?

To add to gturtle343's response, you should really make an attempt to go to tournaments, as the level of play is typically higher (you can find ones closest to you in the Events section).
If it's within your means, consider traveling. And if you can only travel for one tournament a year, make sure it is Evo. Not only is it the largest tournament in the US, but it is a tremendous social experience, and it's those social experiences which will help form the relationships between yourself and others which will ultimately help you to improve your game.
Finally, just because you don't have a local community doesn't mean you can't make one. There are probably a few other like-minded individuals in your area that are just as passionate about the game. The key is finding them. When you do, rally them to have regular training sessions, and learn from each other.
Not at all. Yeah it sucks not playing with anyone locally but you can always make a note in the Notes section on here and try to gather like-minded players to befriend on your console of choice so you can get a few matches going.
Putting your GT out there along with an open invite for friend requests is one of the best ways to get solid competition online. Give it a shot.
