Long distance relationship really works?

i didn't like it. what i need to make a relationship is some i can touch and i can hug, not just talk, talk, and talk. talk is good, but not good enough to replace a hug or kiss. beside that I was a jealous male so i want to know what she always do, and to do that i must near her. so long distance will, never work to me.

It won't work if the couple don't make it work -- it's the deal breaker! Long distance relationships could either make or break a happy relationship.

I do think that they can work. I'm sure that it can be a little more complex than a couple who live together, but I'm sure that long distance relationships can last, just like any other couple or any other relationship.

I have tried both type of relationship with my first boyfriend he asked me to decide on that matter. I prefer and always wanted for him to be with me because it hurts to hear from him and not to see him and not be there for him... But being away does have it perks like for each of us to have our own space and for us to have lesser problems than most couple...

i think it wont work, fruitless

usually, it is difficult for the lover. and i saw many lover fail when they do long distance relationship. i have a cousin(called A), who has been in relation with this woman (called B) for about 10 years. then in the age of 25 years old, he propose B. but the marriage will happen after A came back from USA. after the proposal, A went to USA. B always waited for A. but he broke her heart because he has affair with another woman in USA and he decided to marry the woman in USA. poor B, she didnt married anyone because of her heart broken. well, i used to have long distance relationship too three times. and it made me suffer. i feel so lonely, and always miss him. but then we have to broke up because so many things. and that is not from me. so i cant say thta long distance relationship can make the bond stronger.

Hi, josendo, welcome to myLot!! It depends what kind of relationship you mean. I think friendship can work on long distance. It is possible to be really good friends if you keep the relationship alive, keep in touch from time to time. Good friendship is built on respect for each other and understanding and knowing each other´s needs to be able to help and encourage. It is good if there are things that both are interested in and can exchange their knowledge and enthusiasm for them. Marriage is a totally different thing. It can start with long distance friendship and then it is necessary to meet and talk and see each other in different situations to learn to know the person you will spend your life with every day. It takes time and patience and maybe some advice from others and you also need to learn to know the families of both. This may give a good foundation for a long and happy relationship.. I am far from an expert, but I have lived a little longer than many others, and I have learned that it is important to take good time before deciding something like a marriage.
