You know a lot of people thinking that love will still work in distance. Is that really reliable?? maybe we can say it's all about the love not the distance. but how can we say that it will work when there's a gap between you and your partner. Do we really need to stay away from them considering that our love for them still shaking?? Or we'll just stay because we want to add more flavors to our creamy relationship??

I don't think long-distance relationships work. Maybe at first, it is okay with the couple, esp. when it is only for less than two years. But if years go by, maybe 5 years or more, it would be too much. It makes no sense to be in a relationship with someone who is not even there beside you. Part of being a couple is being together. That is why only a few long-distance relationships work at all.

hello friend,long distance relationship has nothing to do when it comes to LOVE. If you are destined to be together in the future and so be it. Like what happened to me. My ex-boyfriend and I got separated year 1986 because i had to work abroad. We used to write regulary during the first year until the time came that we have no communication anymore... No calls, letter, at all. I said to myself maybe we are not meant for each other,so i still continue working abroad, until 9 years later i saw him accidentally. I was on vacation that time. We talked and he courted me again for the second time... Now he is my husband . And living happily...

if you two are faithful then the relationship might work out. but if you two need the feel of a partner beside then it might not work.
I lost my girl because she wants me to be always beside her and it didn't work out. She dumped me over a guy, her neighbor. amphff!

long distance relationships dont work just because you love the person doesnt matter they will always feel lonely and chances are they will find some one else that they can be with its common sence.

For most it won't work but for those that let say weaker foundation in their relationship it would be hard to sustain a long distance relationship. So it really depends on how strong your love for each other will determine if it will work for you or not.

As for me, a long distance relationship wouldn't work. I am one person who wants to be near to the people I love, be it family, husband or lover. I get lonely and miserable when far from them. I am at my best when my loved ones are around. For lovers, it would be a great stressor to the relationship. Eventually, the relationship gets affected and more than the physical gap, the emotional gap that kills the relationship is heightened.

the GAP you re pertaining to is the distance right? the distance really doesn t matter. if you really love the person then love that person with all your heart. never stray with negative thoughts cuz you ll just go paranoid in the process and it ll cause you unnecessary fights that could just lead to a massive breakup. then when the time comes you ll realize you broke up cuz of thinking negatively of someone you love. now, isn t that stupid?

im in a long distance relationship, my partner is working abroad. at first it is hard to make some adjustment because we are inseparable. until it become normal to me. to become successful, both should trust, respect and understand. do not let the communication stopped even you felt tired of texting or calling. never put yourself to argue your partner because he or she might feel disgust to you. show your partner some affection, love and concerned. with this your partner will become happy and would ease the exhaustion.

I've tried one. Didn't really work too well. We'd originally met up here in California but she had to move back to Ohio to care for her mother. She forgot to mention the part where she'd also cheat on me with some albino lookin dude. We had a pretty strong relationship but I have a feeling if the two people love each other enough they'll make it.

Many of my family members have made their relationship with their sweethearts work across the continents. Now, I am proving that it can work too. I've been away, in a different continent, from my fiance for over a year, and in less than a year, we're getting married. If you really want to make it work, you can do it. It takes lots of hardwork, patience and quality communication, but it can happen.
