Long distance relationship.. What do you think of it???

I am married to the man of my dreams and I met him on the internet, we had a long distance relationship for about a year brfore I moved to be with him. We lived 14 hours apart and were able to meet twice, we met half way and spent a few days together. It dose take commitment to stay in a long distance relationship, talking on the internet daily and talking on the phone are not as good as being in person, but we knew we wanted to be together so we made the commitment to make it work.

I have been in a long distance relationship for more then a year now. Yes sometimes its difficult and you have more misunderstandings at times but if you trsut each other then nothing can go wrong in your relationship. It was difficult for both of us for sometimes but slowly w got used to it and now we are ok with it. We live in the same country but diffrent cities and we try to meet whenever we get long leaves from our work otheriwse we are in touch on phone every day. We make sure that we meet up atleast once in a month.

I met my husband in my country, he is foreigner. He came to my country for working. After finish his contract, he went back to his country. During that time, we had long distance relationship. At that time, I did not think much, just work and have fun as usual. However onething i had to do and convince myself - keep this relationship - After one year, we married. So with my experiences, when you have a long distance relationship. Don't think too much, just work, live and have fun as normal AND ask yourself you want to keep that relationship or not. If you say "YES" - DO IT!

Long-Distance Relationships.. I have stopped believing in them somewhat until and unless they turn out into real life relationships as soon as possible.. I had been in one relationship which ended up after 3 years but we could not see each other even once in 3 years.. I met a girl online, about 5 years back. We had a nice chat and we continued to chat on alternate days for about one month. By that time she had given me her phone number so we started talking on phone. We exchanged our pics and did like each other. I even proposed her after 2 months or so and she accepted my proposal after another month. We went away nicely. But unfortunately couldn't meet each other ever. We loved each other(as i hope) and everytime i could think of meeting her(we lived in different cities) some or the other thing happened which won't allow us to meet. Situations were turning against us.Then after 2 years or so, some incident happened with her due to which our relation started declining. She was not allowed to talk to boys. And i kept on asking her for time so that i can come over to her place to see her. But unfortunately we ended up and i still don't know the reason..WHY?. I still try to contact her, but she doesn't picks up the call because she can't talk to me in the presence of her family. I ask her to give me a miss call whenever its possible to talk, but hardly she does that. So as far as i m concerned, i used to believe in long-distance relationships, but i am afraid to take any chances now. I have seen a 4 year relationship ending up in 4 months just because they got separted after 4 years. So you really can't belive.. Whats gonna happen?

Long distance relationships DO NOT WORK and I hate it. That's why those involved MUST take it to the NEXT level or your whole relationship will be @ stake and you WILL loose it all. Although it has a "few" advantages such as knowing your partners habits, likes and dislikes, but if prelonged, It becomes painful, agonizing, frustrating, decieving. I have suffered it for THREE years LONG years and still suffereing it's aftermath to this day. God forbid if i would ever be in that hole again. As you might know it's just a "virtaul" relationship. There are no chances to be there when needed and there is no chance for you to become and show who you really are. INSTEAD it turns into someone or SOMETHING you really aren't. Someone or something you didn't know existed. All relationships MIGHT have these element below, but in a long distance relatioship they clearly visible and dangerously present. 1- The spark. "ur attracted to 2someone. u wanna meet" 2- The meet up. " there we go!! we're on to something" 3- The yearning. " i miss him, need him here now" 4- The isolation. "all i ever want is you" 5- The anger. " i wish i never met u" 6- The stress. "we need to do something" 7- The argument. " this is not fair, we should be 2gether" 8- The hatred. "i do not want this, leave me alone" 9- The break up. "we have nothing between us, Cin' another" 10-The END. "whatever comes next goes here" These are the elements in a long distance relationship, if there was no effort to end it, I.E to become closer and gap the distance.

I don't really prefer long-distance relationships because a couple should always be near to one another to give support and provide company for each other. I will feel very very insecure if there I am in a long-distance relationship. Regards, Adrienne Founder of http://www.e-marketinghub.com http://www.e-marketing-systems.com

It's hard actually but here's what trust and commitment will be tested. I've been in a relationship for a year and we both belong in different schools and our school is way far from each other like north to souht. But we make sure that both of us are loyal and we have this constant communication. We checked each other every now and then and securing a day for the both of us only. We treasure every moment and never fails to greet each other with all the mushy things. lolz.

Being far apart is okay as long as it's only temporary. Meaning, the two of you should work towards being together or at least closer to each other. That makes it a whole lot easier because it gives you something to look forward to. You know you'll be together some day.

I think they can only work when the lovers or married couple or whatever have been together previously for a very long time. Let's say a husband takes up an assignment in a different country, or a soldier goes to war and leaves his/her sweetheart behind. 'Fresh' or 'new' realtionships don't stand a chance, I think you need the physical presence and contact of the partner, so that the relationship can grow.

I think that long distance relationships are indeed possible. My fiance and I were in a long distance relationship the first 2 years we were dating. After that I graduated college and moved to be with him. We lived with each other a year before getting engaged and now, 4 years into dating we're still in love! We're getting married on our 5 year anniversary in 10 months! I think the key to a good long distance relationship is that both parties are dedicated. We knew that we loved each other and that pulled us through, but it took a lot of hard work. The benefit of a long distance relationship is that if it stands the test of time you can be sure that it will continue to stand the test of time in the future when you're together!

Hi there. For me personally I don't think a long distance relationship would be any good for me but I am not really sure cos I have never tried the long distance relationship thing so I can't say anything more than I don't think it would work for me. Catch ya later.

long distance relationships takes a lot of hard work and trust to make it last. of course there's the ups and downs but if you really feel that you can do it then go for it. any good relationship is worth fighting for.

I had a long distance relationship before. My boyfriend work abroad while I have to stay here in Manila for my job. At first it was very challenging, your heart is always beating fast when the phone is ringing expecting it will be him.Years passed and I was stocked in a very uncomfortable situation.There was a guy who is very sweet, always been very supportive and happened to be my boss and of course I fell in love with this guy and without my knowledge my boyfriend also fell in love with another girl who is near him.It is very important to have someone beside you when you needed most.

hi morningdew, as much i wanted, i do not want a long distance relationship cause i know deep inside it will be harder to keep. refrain from having a long distance relationship, digerati

if my opinion counts i would honestly say that long distance relationships are hard to work out and most of them really fails in the end. too bad but its the truth. believe me.

I had one long distance relationship which lasted for a very long time but we did slip away from one another. But it was great while it lasted.

Ldr's are not for the weak at heart. Me and my husband are seperated. He is in his home country at the moment. We have been together for a little over 2 years now. The most important thing about a LDR is if there is an end result. If there is no chance that you can be together, then it's almost wasted time. My husband's visa to the US was aproved. So hopefully soon he will be here and our LDR will be over. Or I guess graduated at least. Good luck.

Well i don't believe in that kind of relationship anymore ... 4 years ago i met really great guy, he was just perfect in everything ... at least in stuff i really like about guys. One day he said we can't be together because he felt like there was only friendship between us not love ... after a week i found out that he has new girlfriend ... that was really really painfull moment in my life. Well now i feel nothing to him ...

relationship far apart will work out if you trust and trust to both of you.learn how to wait and be honest.if you fall to other just bare in mind that there is someones waiting for you

Yes long distance relationship doesn't matter as long as between two lovers are still faithful and keeping in touch always in each other..
