anyone do them, how do you deal with the time apart?
long distant relationships
- Thread starter 97_cobra_97
- Start date
I "dated" my GF for over a year that way. It sucks, but if you have long term goals together, makes you appreciate that time together more. Not to sound sappy, but it does make you a bit more prepared for time apart, stronger in some ways. Just make sure you have a good phone plan

I think long distance relationships are asinine. Failure rate of 99%=not a good idea.
depends on the distance and length of time between visits
They can work and they can strengthen the realtionship.
*thinks to himself* now why the f*** didn't mine work out???? :lol:

I wouldn't necessarily agree with the failure rate of 99%, especially now a days when the internet is such a viable tool to keep in touch with people. Zach and I had a long distance relationship, we are now married, known each other for 5 years, going on 3 years marriage.
The key is good communication, cell phones have awesome plans these days and email and messenger is a wonderful way to keep in touch. Then take turns visiting each other, I got lucky Zach visited me more often, but I also my daughter was 3 when we first met so made it easier for him to travel then me.

I think AIM has caused problems for me.
I mean, there have been times where I would say something and she would overreact just because she got the wrong impression. I would stick to phones and emails. Screw instant messenger.

i plan on moving in spring, i just got back yestereday from spending 10 days with her.
the more time i spend with her the harder it is to leave her.
unlimited nights and weekend and free long distance :thumbsup:
I have no doubt that they can work. I am involved in one right now. Living near L.A. with the woman living up in the bay area. About 5-6 hour drive. We see each other pretty much every weekend. As NJ said Its the only one that did work. It requires alot of time but pays dividends in the end as we always look forward to seeing each other.
Now cross country is a different story.

:thumbsup: in the last two months i've only missed talking with her two nights and we email each other every day at work

Allow me to clarify here folks. Since I am 20, I am fresh out of the teenage world. In that world, 99% of long distance relationship will fail. I guess when mature adults (with a drivers license ) are involved, they can succeed more often.

so then 26 and 27 would have a good shot at working
Try it & find out.
Everyone's different.....
As long as she has gotten out of her party years.
after moving from Minnesota to Arizona I tried to keep the relationship going.. lots fo email... and a few trips... the plan was for her to move down here things never go as planned. that was about 5 years ago.
I'm happy it worked out the way it did though... my current girlfriend is funner, prettier, younger, has implants that simply rock my world, and she is local.
advantages to long distance though is that you don't always have to include your significant other in every little thing you do. you have weekends to do your own thing... basically you get freedom.
