Long distance relationships can work. They are much harder to maintain and need more attention because you want so much to hold that person and can't. I have been in and am in a long distance relationship. There was so much to learn in the beginning. Hard lessons at times that truly tested the very firers of the relationship. Things like Phone bills and learning to discipline yourself so that you didnt end up with a 1000.00 dollar phone bill. Take it from a guy that knows, they DO exist. WOW... there was the patience that had to be found in knowing that there were two seperate lives going on and that one or the other could not always be on when you were. The uncertainties of what the other was doing when not with you. That settles when trust sets in. The ways you show your affections and relate to one another without actually seeing the others face or feeling their touch.
And then there are the up close and personal issues when someone you CAN look at every day wants to be more than a friend. Is it cheating if you slip out now and then to fill needs, whether physical or emotional, if you are in a long distance or on-line relationship? YES it IS... That person on the other side of the screen or the world or the state IS Real and they feel real hurt and sorrow. their hearts will break and their world shatter as if you had been sitting next to them when you went out.
And words... words can be read differently, depending on the mood you are in when you read them. What was meant comes acrossed wrong and now there is an issue. Many times, it takes a lot of explaining and deep heart-felt talks to mend a word or sentance misinterpited. YES, long distance relationship can be difficult. They can take a great deal out of you. BUT!!!!! They also can be the beautiful feeling in the world. And when you do meet that person you so love, the moments together, though they may be abstract, are usually very explosive and engaging. They are filled with the unleashed desires of all you two have spoken to one another. It is Fire and total passionuninhibited. Something really quite out of this world. Darrel

i have experience it three times... ;)
First time was after school... my boyfriend left me to go the a university oversea and he said he did not believe in long distance relationship.. it was hard for me to accept that.
Second time, i had to go to UK for university and i had to leave my boyfriend behind. I was hard for both of us but we managed to stay in touch for almost 2/3 years before i left him for a person i met over the internet..;)
Third time.. i had to be far, still in UK from this person whom i met from the internet... he came twice to Uk and we will meet whenever i went back home. It was very hard to say good bye because we realised that we love each other so much. I had to be away from him for almost one year and a half before i went back for good. We ended up getting married and now we had three kids already and i am pregnant with my fourth baby..;)
The thing is with this long distance relationship is that you have to have the element of trust and patience. Love comes second because to be far away from each other, so many things can happen if you dont trust each other.
I dont know why i was left the first time, but for the second time.. there was no more love. I tried giving him chances but there was no improvement made. For me and my hubby(third case).. we do trust each other although we have never met in person and we believe in the love that we have.

Yes I have been in one and yes it is difficult because mainly you cant always be with each other and you dont know what the other is doing and you wouldnt even know if he or she is lying or not.Another is when you want to be with the person you cant,you just cant hug him or her and kiss him or her.Hope you liked my response and have a nice day.
