we do not see each other everyday coz we are far from each other. not really very far. it can only be travelled by just an hour or more. however we love each other and we have sms and phone as our means of communication. we promised each other that our love will be forever but i miss my lover so much due to not seeing each other everyday. the last time we spend time together was in January 5 this year. we both have a job. do you think our love will grow?

Distant relationship is not a problem. It's in the 2 people who love each other. It depends on them to be loyal and open .It's the matter of trust. Phone calls, sms, writing a letter are means of communication.
The nice thing about it. That you gonna miss each other very much. And the excitement when you see each other again. I think you're meant for each other then you'll be together until the end.

distant relationships are a very hard thing. They require more energy work trust and so much more. As my man is out making a pretty penny i am typically more then 8 hours away from him at all points and times and he comes homes for 2 days at a time to come and see my and our son but everything depends. Sometimes he is gone for 1 week and sometimes 3 or more weeks. It puts alot of strain on a relationship but with us when he comes home its almost like when we were first seeing each other 6 years ago... Cuddly mushy and so many other feelings that are so awesome we want to be with each other as long as possible..
Keep holding on its hard but it is worth it in the very end i swear

i actually believe in what you said. it is really worth it if you already are spending time with your loved one. me, i never sleep when we are together because our time is limitted in spending each other. we are not married yet and i am really looking forward to that.

Long distance relationship is quite a problem in the sense that you could not be physically together as much as you want too. But there is a saying that says" distance makes the heart grow fonder." If you really love and trust each I think there will be no problem. Just be loyal and faithful to each other and communication now is really not a problem. Good luck to your relationship.

the best is to stay in the same city for you both if you don't want to give up the love. my former boyfriend and i is a good example.he worked in another city which is far from me, everytime we have to meet each other for a long time, so at last i give the love up.

When I met my love we lived an hour apart. We talked on the phone, and instant messeged one another every day. We saw eachother about once a week, only for a few hours- most of which was spend with the kids ( we both have children from previous relationships)...
after about 6 months we couldn't stand the distance any longer. He quit his job & moved in with me after we found him a new job in the town I live in.
We've been together now for a year and a half, and he joined the National Guard in Nov. 2007. He got to come home for 2 weeks over Christmas, but I won't see him again until June 2008 because he's 1/2 a country away at training.
We write to eachother every day and talk on the phone when he's allowed- right now it's once a week for only a few minutes. But our love is very strong & it only grows with each passing day.
So to answer your question - yes, if you truly love one another it can work, even with distance between you.

I am in a long distance relationship. There's about 300 miles between us. It costs about £40 and takes up to 6 hours each time we want to see each other, but atleast our parents let us stay at each other's houses. I'm almost 17 and he's 18, and we've been together for nearly a year. We've also known each other for about 2 and a half years.
We figured that having the distance is good, because our relationship isn't all about physical contact, and because we talk and get to know each other really well when we're apart. It also helps us to keep certain aspects of our lives going, I know that in my previous relationships I kind of abandoned my friends for my boyfriend, which I haven't done this time because my time is shared between him and my friends and I can't spend all my time with him.
Sometimes money's a bit of a stretch, but we've never spent more than a month apart which is good. You just have to be tough, and remember that the more you are apart, the better seeing each other again will be :)

I don't think distant relationship is a problem. If one loves the other, he or she must learn to communicate with each other and make some opportunities to talk with each other. If not, there might be no love exists. As for me, I won't leave or betray him as long as I am sure he love me and miss me. I do confirm that you get from what you give. The sense of welfare insreases in direct proportion to the love in your heart.
God bless!
